## Minestarters Atlas summary

TDG Gold Corp. reported preliminary assay results from its first drillhole \(TDG25-001\) at the AuWEST target in British Columbia. The hole intersected a high-grade 100.0 m interval of 2.24 g/t Au and 0.38% Cu, contained within a broader 240.6 m zone.

Reasoning: First drillhole at AuWEST target returned a strong gold-copper intercept near a major discovery, though results are preliminary and true width is unknown.

- Positive factor: High-grade gold and copper intercept

- Positive factor: Proximity to AuRORA 1 discovery

- Positive factor: QA/QC protocols disclosed

- Positive factor: Strong cash position

- Negative factor: Preliminary results only

- Negative factor: True width not disclosed

Facts used in scoring: 6

## 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 use of certified reference materials, blanks, and duplicates, and names Bureau Veritas laboratory.

Evidence · text

> inserted certified reference materials, blanks and duplicates

**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: True width is explicitly stated as unknown.

Evidence · text

> True width is unknown.

## 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.
