## Minestarters Atlas summary

Aben Gold has commenced its 2026 diamond drill program at the Justin Gold-Tungsten Project in the Yukon. The program aims to test continuity of gold-tungsten mineralization at the POW zone and explore high-grade orogenic gold at the Lost Ace zone.

Reasoning: The announcement marks the start of a new drill program testing known mineralization and high-grade targets, though much of the cited data is historical.

- Positive factor: commencement of 1,300m drill program

- Positive factor: ahead of schedule

- Positive factor: testing high-grade orogenic gold targets

Facts used in scoring: 12

## 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 \(Milosz Mielniczuk\) and references NI 43-101 compliance.

Evidence · text

> Qualified Person: Milosz Mielniczuk, B.Sc. P.Geo., V.P. of Exploration for Aben Gold, has reviewed and approved the technical aspects of this news release

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery.

Why it applies: The program is designed to test continuity of mineralization between discovery holes.

Evidence · text

> The 2026 program will test continuity of mineralization between these discovery holes

## 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.
