## Minestarters Atlas summary

Purepoint Uranium Group reported Phase 1 drill results from the Dorado Project, highlighted by hole NV26-11 which intersected 5.6 metres of continuous radioactivity at the Nova discovery. The interval averaged 11,730 cps with a peak of 53,300 cps, supporting the interpreted continuity of the mineralized system while laboratory assays remain pending.

Reasoning: Significant continuous radioactive interval at Nova discovery, though actual uranium grades are pending laboratory assays.

- Positive factor: continuous radioactivity

- Positive factor: high peak cps

- Positive factor: supports geological model

- Negative factor: assays pending

- Negative factor: radiometric response is not a grade

Facts used in scoring: 3

## Classification and evidence

**QA/QC Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).

Why it applies: Release mentions review and approval by a Qualified Person \(Scott Frostad, P.Geo.\)

Evidence · text

> reviewed and approved by Scott Frostad, P.Geo., Vice President, Exploration

**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: Reported interval lengths represent downhole length and true width has not been determined.

Evidence · text

> Reported interval lengths represent downhole length. True width has not been determined.

#### 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: "The final hole completed prior to a scheduled mid-program break, NV26-11, intersected 5.6 metres of continuous radioacti"

## 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.
