## Minestarters Atlas summary

Tectonic Metals announced new drill assay results from the Black Creek target at its Flat Gold Project in southwest Alaska, reporting multiple high-grade gold intercepts over significant widths. Highlights include 21.34m at 5.09 g/t Au and 57.91m at 1.89 g/t Au, with several holes ending in mineralization. These results reinforce the potential for Black Creek to emerge as a second gold intrusive centre, building on previous high-grade discoveries.

Reasoning: The drill program at Black Creek delivered multiple high-grade gold intercepts over significant widths, with several holes ending in mineralization, confirming the potential for a second gold intrusive centre at the Flat Gold Project, supported by robust QA/QC.

- Positive factor: Multiple high-grade gold intercepts, including bonanza grades, were reported over significant widths.

- Positive factor: Several holes ended in mineralization, indicating potential for further expansion at depth and along strike.

- Positive factor: The results strengthen the interpretation of Black Creek as a second significant gold intrusive centre within the Flat Gold Project.

- Positive factor: Comprehensive QA/QC procedures were disclosed, including QP sign-off, accredited lab, and various control samples.

- Positive factor: Compositing parameters, including cut-off grades and maximum internal dilution, were transparently stated.

- Negative factor: All reported intercepts are downhole lengths, with insufficient data to determine true widths, which may overstate actual thickness.

Facts used in scoring: 28

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: Hole CMD26-041 returned 29.91 g/t Au over 1.22 m and 16.73 g/t Au over 2.22 m, and hole CMR26-152 returned 17.34 g/t Au over 6.10 m, all significantly exceeding the 5 g/t Au exceptional threshold for open-pit gold.

Evidence · text

> 29.91 g/t Au over 1.22 m

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Both RC holes CMR26-152 and CMR26-153 ended in mineralization, providing clear opportunities to expand the system further at depth and along strike.

Evidence · text

> both reverse-circulation \("RC"\) holes CMR26-152 and CMR26-153 ended in mineralization, providing clear opportunities to expand the system further at depth and along strike.

**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 QA/QC protocols including the use of certified reference materials, blank samples, and field duplicates, with all results within acceptable limits, and mentions a Qualified Person sign-off and an accredited laboratory.

Evidence · text

> Quality assurance and quality control \(QA/QC\) protocols included the insertion of certified reference material every 20 samples, blank samples at rate of approximately every 25 samples and field duplicate samples \(split from the original approximately 1.5 m for RC or 1.5 m for core intervals\) every 25 samples. All QA/QC results returned values within acceptable limits.

**Compositing Transparent**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Cut-off grade and internal dilution rules are clearly stated for reported intervals.

Why it applies: The document states that select composites utilize 0.10, 0.30 or 0.50 g/t Au cut-offs, with a maximum continuous interval of 3.20 m \(two sample\) below the applicable cut-off inclusion.

Evidence · text

> Select composites utilize 0.10, 0.30 or 0.50 g/t Au cut-offs, with a maximum continuous interval of 3.20 m \(two sample\) below the applicable cut-off inclusion.

**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 note explicitly states that all reported intercepts are downhole lengths, as insufficient data exist to determine true widths.

Evidence · text

> All reported intercepts are downhole lengths, as insufficient data exist to determine true widths.

Reasoning: This intercept shows moderate gold mineralization over an exceptionally broad width, with the hole ending in mineralization, strongly supporting the potential for a large-scale gold system.

- Positive factor: The gold grade of 1.89 g/t is moderate for an open-pit gold deposit \(above 1 g/t\).

- Positive factor: The intercept length of 57.91m indicates continuous mineralization, which is highly significant.

- Positive factor: The hole ended in mineralization, suggesting potential for further extension.

## 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.
