## Minestarters Atlas summary

Ximen Mining Corp has completed its 2024 drill program at the Brett Epithermal Gold Project in British Columbia. While hole B24-08 did not report assay grades in this release, it confirmed the presence of extensive hydrothermal alteration and silica-pyrite breccia characteristic of the West Zone.

Reasoning: The release reports the completion of a drill program and describes significant alteration and geological continuity in the West Zone, but lacks specific assay grades for the latest hole \(B24-08\), making it a geological update rather than a grade-driven result.

- Positive factor: Demonstrated continuity of West Zone alteration

- Positive factor: Discovery of visible gold in nearby hole 7

- Positive factor: Completion of 2024 drill program

- Negative factor: No assay grades reported for hole B24-08 in this release

Facts used in scoring: 1

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Hole B24-08 was drilled to test the extent of the West Zone alteration zone northwest of previous holes.

Evidence · text

> drilled to the northwest to test the extent of the West Zone alteration zone

**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 was approved by a Qualified Person \(Dr. Mathew Ball, P.Geo\).

Evidence · text

> Dr. Mathew Ball, P.Geo., VP Exploration for Ximen Mining Corp. and a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101, approved the technical information

#### Review

- Needs Review: No
- Interp. Status: scored
- Historical: No

#### Dates

- Event date: 2024-11-14T00:00:00.000Z

Reasoning: Hole B24-08 confirms geological characteristics of the West Zone but provides no numeric assay data.

- Positive factor: Confirmed extensive hydrothermal alteration

- Negative factor: No assay grades reported

Evidence · text

> Hole B24-08 intersected volcanic rocks throughout the hole... Multiple zones of intense clay-silica alteration... totalling 68.3 meters

#### Tags used in scoring

**No QA/QC Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document.

Why it applies: qaqc\_disclosed is not true

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: proximity is offered as the value premise: "Ximen also owns the Treasure Mountain Silver Project adjacent to the past producing Huldra Silver Mine."

## 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.
