# Rackla Metals is Pleased to Provide an Update on Drilling at Grad and Other Developments on Property Holdings in the NWT Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/rackla-metals-is-pleased-to-provide-an-update-on-drilling-at-grad-and-other-deve--fd3aeb94-0c52-4bf2-8311-cdf9041ccf5b Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/RAK/news/6731208889946926/rackla-metals-is-pleased-to-provide-an-update-on-drilling-at-grad-and-other-deve Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2025-08-19T11:00:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Rackla Metals Inc. - Ticker: RAK - Exchange: TSX - Region: Northwest Territories - Primary commodity: Gold - Secondary commodities: Bismuth, Arsenic - Document categories: Drill results, Other - Extracted: 2026-09-16 19:08:43 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.40 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Rackla Metals has increased its 2025 exploration drill plan by 25% to 5,000m following encouraging geological observations at the BiTe showing in the NWT. While seven holes have been completed and show consistent sheeted veining and bismuth mineralization, assay results are currently pending. Reasoning: The company is reporting progress on an exploration program with encouraging geological observations \(veining and bismuth\), but actual grade results are not yet available. - Positive factor: increased drill plan due to encouraging observations - Positive factor: extension of mineralized zone at BiTe showing - Positive factor: consistent sheeted veining observed in all holes - Negative factor: assay results for completed holes are still pending Facts used in scoring: 8 ## Classification and evidence **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: While a QP is named, the specific assay protocols, blanks, or standards used for the pending results are not disclosed in this update. Evidence · text > Samples from holes G25-001 through 007 have been submitted to the lab and the Company awaits the analytical results. **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Surface work and drilling have extended the mineralized zone at the BiTe showing to the west and at depth. Evidence · text > surface work that has extended the mineralized zone at the BiTe showing significantly to the west and at depth. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 8. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (8) ### G25-001 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/rackla-metals-is-pleased-to-provide-an-update-on-drilling-at-grad-and-other-deve--fd3aeb94-0c52-4bf2-8311-cdf9041ccf5b#fact-drill-facts-0) Grad #### Identity - Hole ID: G25-001 - Project: Grad - Region: northwest territories - Reported Region: northwest territories - Ticker: RAK #### Geometry - Hole Depth: 208.79 m #### Classification - Program: exploration - Sample Type: drill - Mining Method: unknown #### Location - Location: BiTe - Easting: 517697 - Northing: 6959397 - Elevation: 1805 m - Azimuth: 88 ° - Dip: -50 ° - Loc.

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.
