# 2025 Drill Program Completed on the BiTe Showing and New Gold Discovery Reported at Manta Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/2025-drill-program-completed-on-the-bite-showing-and-new-gold-discovery-reported--de57d1f0-a37c-48a9-976e-7be6af1d4458 Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/RAK/news/6180733508536644/2025-drill-program-completed-on-the-bite-showing-and-new-gold-discovery-reported Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2025-09-08T11:00:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Rackla Metals Inc. - Ticker: RAK - Exchange: TSX - Region: British Columbia - Primary commodity: Gold - Secondary commodities: Bismuth - Document categories: Drill results, Other - Extracted: 2026-08-24 08:01:00 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.60 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Rackla Metals has completed its 2025 drill program at the BiTe showing and reported a new gold discovery at the Manta intrusion via surface sampling. High-grade gold grab samples up to 52.1 g/t Au were identified at Manta, and drill assays for the BiTe program are expected in the coming weeks. Reasoning: The announcement reports a significant new surface discovery at the Manta intrusion with high-grade gold grab samples and high vein density in recent drilling, although drill assays for the main program are still pending. - Positive factor: New gold discovery at Manta intrusion - Positive factor: High-grade surface grab samples \(up to 52.1 g/t Au\) - Positive factor: Significant vein density observed in drill hole G25-010 - Positive factor: Discovery of a new RIRG target - Negative factor: Drill assay results for the BiTe program are still pending - Negative factor: Surface sampling is preliminary Facts used in scoring: 6 ## Classification and evidence **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Hole G25-010 is described as a significant step out at the southwestern edge of the BiTe Zone. Evidence · text > Hole G25-010... was a significant step out. **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: The release mentions that results are pending and samples have been sent to the lab, but does not disclose specific QA/QC protocols or lab certification. Evidence · text > All samples from the drilling have been sent to the lab. ## 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.
