Results included trenching and portable drilling intercepts with wollastonite grades ranging from 5% to 52.9%. Reasoning: The 2022 Phase 1 program successfully confirmed historical wollastonite occurrences and identified new sites with significant grades \(up to 52.9% wollastonite\) using surface and portable drilling methods. - Positive factor: Confirmation of historical mineralization - Positive factor: Discovery of new mineralized sites - Positive factor: Strong grades in trench and drill intercepts - Negative factor: Mineralization is non-homogeneous and intercalated with barren rock 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 names a Qualified Person \(Jean-Paul Barrette, P.Geo\) and references NI 43-101 standards. Evidence · text > The technical information contained in this report has been reviewed and approved by Jean-Paul Barrette Géo/ P.Geo, an independent project geologist **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: New mineralized sites were found in both the northern part and other parts of the property. Evidence · text > new wollastonite mineralized sites were found both in the northern part and in other parts of the Menard property ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 6.

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.
