# SOMA GOLD DISCOVERS NEW VEIN IN UPPER ATENAS ZONE OF THE CORDERO MINE Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/soma-gold-discovers-new-vein-in-upper-atenas-zone-of-the-cordero-mine--7c0c819c-314e-45bc-902c-cd940092509d Original source: https://orestocks.com/company/SOMA.V/press-releases/8008531022071186 Publisher: orestocks Original announcement: 2026-09-15T08:20:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Soma Gold Corp. - Ticker: SOMA.V - Exchange: Unavailable - Region: Antioquia, Colombia - Primary commodity: Gold - Secondary commodities: Silver, Zinc, Lead - Document categories: Drill results, Other - Extracted: 2026-09-15 09:05:06 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.80 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Soma Gold has discovered a new high-grade quartz vein, the upper Upper Atenas \(uUAV\) vein, within the Cordero Mine in Colombia. Drill results include high-grade intercepts such as 28.2 g/t Au over 3.0 m and 167.2 g/t Au over 0.47 m. The discovery is located in the hanging wall of the existing Atenas Zone and shows potential for further extension. Reasoning: The discovery of a new high-grade vein \(uUAV\) with intercepts up to 167.2 g/t Au represents a significant exploration success that could add ounces to the existing resource. - Positive factor: Discovery of a new high-grade vein \(uUAV\) in the hanging wall - Positive factor: High-grade intercepts including 167.2 g/t Au - Positive factor: Extension of known quartz vein system - Positive factor: QA/QC protocols clearly disclosed - Negative factor: Structural complexity \(brittle faults dismembering veins\) may impact continuity Facts used in scoring: 4 ## Classification and evidence **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: Intercept of 167.2 g/t Au is exceptionally high for the deposit type. Evidence · text > maximum grade of 167.2 g/t Au **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 details specific QA/QC protocols including blanks, standards, and duplicates. Evidence · text > regular insertion of certified blanks, duplicates, and certified OREAS standards **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Discovery of a new vein \(uUAV\) above the current mining area. Evidence · text > The newly discovered vein lies about 20 m above the current conventional mining operations ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 4.

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.
