## Minestarters Atlas summary

Puma Exploration has completed its 2025 drilling program at the Lynx Gold Zone, extending the known mineralization 200m to the southwest. Visible gold was observed in 6 of the 15 holes drilled, with the total mineralized zone now spanning 800m along strike.

Reasoning: The drilling program successfully extended the known Lynx Gold Zone by 200m to the southwest and observed visible gold in several step-out holes, though specific assay grades are not yet available.

- Positive factor: Step-out extension of mineralized zone

- Positive factor: Observation of visible gold in multiple holes

- Positive factor: Deepest VG occurrence to date

- Negative factor: Assays are pending

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The drilling extended the Lynx Gold Zone by 200m to the southwest.

Evidence · text

> extending the Lynx Gold Zone by 200 m to the southwest.

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: The project is located near the Rocky Brook Millstream Fault, a major regional structure.

Evidence · text

> Both are located near the Rocky Brook Millstream Fault \("RBMF"\)

#### Tags used in scoring

**No QA/QC Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document.

Why it applies: qaqc\_disclosed is not true

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: proximity is offered as the value premise: "To earn a 65% interest in the project, Kinross can finance a minimum of $16.75 million in exploration expenditures over "

## 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.
