## Minestarters Atlas summary

Thunderstruck Resources has commenced its 2022 drill program at the Liwa Gold &amp; Silver Project in Fiji, targeting several epithermal gold-silver anomalies. The program consists of an initial five drill holes totaling 1,500 meters to test targets including Liwa Ridge, Vatuvatulevu, and Jensens.

Reasoning: The company has successfully mobilized and commenced a 1,500m drill program targeting well-defined epithermal gold-silver anomalies. While no new drill intercepts are reported, the surface geochemistry and trenching provide a strong basis for the upcoming program.

- Positive factor: Commencement of drilling program

- Positive factor: High-grade surface anomalies reported

- Positive factor: Qualified Person sign-off

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: Technical information reviewed by a Qualified Person \(Peter Duerden, RPGeo\) under NI 43-101.

Evidence · text

> The technical information in this news release was reviewed by Peter Duerden, RPGeo, Technical Advisor to Thunderstruck Resources, and a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 \(NI 43-101\).

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: The project is located in Fiji, a prolific gold-copper trend with nearby active projects like Namosi and Vatukoula.

Evidence · text

> Fiji is on the Pacific Ring Of Fire, a prolific trend that has produced numerous large gold and copper deposits

## 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.
