## Minestarters Atlas summary

Ximen Mining Corp reported drill results from hole B24-06 at the Brett Epithermal Gold Project, intersecting 43.95m of mineralized core within the West Zone. While the release details the geological characteristics and pyrite content of the breccia, specific gold assay grades for these intercepts were not provided.

Reasoning: The drill hole B24-06 successfully intersected a significant width of mineralized breccia in the West Zone, confirming continuity of the structure, although specific gold assay values were not disclosed in this update.

- Positive factor: Extension of mineralized breccia in West Zone

- Positive factor: Significant total mineralized width \(43.95m\)

- Positive factor: Presence of pyrite-associated silica stockwork

- Negative factor: No gold grades reported for current intercepts

Facts used in scoring: 7

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Drill hole B24-06 was used to test the West Zone breccia and extend the known mineralized footprint.

Evidence · text

> B24-06 was drilled... to intersect the West Zone breccia intersected in the top of hole 5

**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 includes a sign-off 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

#### 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

## 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.
