# Abasca Resources Releases Assays Confirming Multiple Intersections from its Thor Graphite Zone and Announces Resumption of In-Fill Drilling at its Loki Flake Graphite Deposit Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/abasca-resources-releases-assays-confirming-multiple-intersections-from-its-thor--d6b00950-7844-46d6-b5af-4ac7f48b4e33 Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/ABA/news/5701212167273113/abasca-resources-releases-assays-confirming-multiple-intersections-from-its-thor Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2025-08-25T12:30:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Abasca Resources Inc. - Ticker: ABA - Exchange: TSX - Region: Saskatchewan - Primary commodity: Graphite - Secondary commodities: Sulfur - Document categories: Drill results - Extracted: 2026-08-24 08:01:17 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.80 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Abasca Resources has released assay results from drillhole KLS-25-072 at the Loki Flake Graphite Deposit, confirming multiple high-grade graphite intersections in the Thor Graphite Zone. The results include a 32m zone at 9.78% Cg and high-grade sub-intervals up to 15.45% Cg. The company has also commenced a summer in-fill drilling program to support an indicated resource estimate. Reasoning: The drillhole KLS-25-072 intersected multiple high-grade graphite zones \(up to 15.45% Cg\) in a relatively unexplored conductor, providing significant exploration upside for the Thor Zone. - Positive factor: high-grade graphite intersections - Positive factor: multiple mineralization zones in a single hole - Positive factor: QA/QC disclosed - Positive factor: QP signed Facts used in scoring: 14 ## 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 mentions insertion of blanks, standards, and repeats, and uses an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited lab. Evidence · text > included the insertion of blanks, standard reference materials, and repeats **QP/CP Signed** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience. Why it applies: Brian McEwan, P.Geo, is named as the Qualified Person who reviewed and approved the technical information. Evidence · text > reviewed and approved by Brian McEwan, P.Geo, a Qualified Person ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 14.

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.
