# STARR PEAK REPORTS 9.49% ZINC-EQUIVALENT OVER 5.90 METERS INCLUDING 3.05 METERS OF 4.17% COPPER AND 17.17% ZINC-EQUIVALENT Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/starr-peak-reports-9-49-zinc-equivalent-over-5-90-meters-including-3-05-meters-o--2abe0898-6c36-4185-bf77-91bca3585b94 Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/STE/news/5045092800935213/starr-peak-reports-9-49-zinc-equivalent-over-5-90-meters-including-3-05-meters-o Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2022-05-26T12:00:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Starr Peak Mining Ltd. - Ticker: STE - Exchange: TSX - Region: Québec - Primary commodity: Zinc - Secondary commodities: Copper, Silver, Gold - Document categories: Drill results - Extracted: 2026-09-19 02:02:00 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.80 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Starr Peak Mining reported high-grade drill results from its NewMétal property in Québec, specifically from the Deep zone. Hole STE-22-092-W3 returned 5.90m at 9.49% Zn\_Eq, including a high-grade 3.05m intercept of 4.17% Cu and 17.17% Zn\_Eq. Reasoning: The drill results from hole STE-22-092-W3 show significant high-grade copper and zinc equivalent intercepts in a deep massive sulphide target, representing a high-quality exploration result. - Positive factor: High-grade copper intercept \(4.17% Cu\) - Positive factor: Strong zinc equivalent \(17.17% Zn\_Eq\) in sub-interval - Positive factor: Discovery of high-grade massive sulphide at depth - Positive factor: QA/QC protocols clearly disclosed - Negative factor: True width currently unknown Facts used in scoring: 8 ## Classification and evidence **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: 4.17% Cu and 17.17% Zn\_Eq in a sub-interval represents an exceptionally high-grade zone for a massive sulphide deposit. Evidence · text > 3.05 m of 4.17% Cu, 17.17% Zn\_Eq **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 release explicitly states that true width of mineralization is currently unknown. Evidence · text > True width of mineralization is currently unknown. **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: The release details the insertion of blanks, standards, and duplicates, and names an accredited laboratory \(ALS Canada Ltd.\). Evidence · text > The quality assurance and quality control protocol include insertion of one blank, one standard and one duplicate every 25 samples, in addition to the regular insertion of blank, duplicate, and standard samples accredited by ALS Canada Ltd. **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Drilling is targeting the Normetmar Deep zone below the existing high-grade deposit. Evidence · text > The ongoing drill program continues targeting the Normetmar Deep zone, located directly below the Normetmar high-grade zinc deposit. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 8.

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.
