## Minestarters Atlas summary

Paradigm Gold has received a 5-year drilling permit for its Swift Katie Gold-Copper Property in British Columbia, valid until 2030. The company plans to commence drilling in early 2026, focusing on expanding known gold mineralization and testing the Katie Copper-Gold Porphyry target.

Reasoning: Securing a long-term permit provides operational runway for upcoming exploration programs at the Swift Katie property.

- Positive factor: 5-year drilling permit secured

- Positive factor: expansion drilling planned for known mineralization

- Positive factor: existing Cu-Au porphyry target outlined

Facts used in scoring: 5

## Classification and evidence

**Apparent Width Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness.

Why it applies: The document states 'True widths undetermined' for the reported intervals.

Evidence · text

> True widths undetermined.

## How Atlas produces this analysis

Minestarters Atlas uses automated extraction to summarize mining announcements, identify reported measurements, and classify supporting evidence. Sentiment reflects the extracted narrative and classification rules; it is an interpretation, not a reported measurement. Evidence quotes and context are provided where available. Missing data, low-confidence results, and review flags indicate limitations. Check the original publisher announcement before relying on an interpretation.
