## Minestarters Atlas summary

Altamira Gold has intersected high-grade gold mineralization at its new Morro Verde target in the Cajueiro District, Brazil. The results include an 8m intercept at 3.5 g/t gold, including 1m at 15.4 g/t gold, within a newly identified quartz porphyry intrusive.

Reasoning: The discovery of a second porphyry body at Morro Verde with high-grade gold intercepts \(up to 15.4 g/t\) significantly expands the district's known mineralized footprint.

- Positive factor: discovery of a new porphyry body

- Positive factor: high-grade intercept \(15.4 g/t Au\)

- Positive factor: extension of district-scale mineralization corridor

- Positive factor: potential for both open-pit and underground mining

- Negative factor: true width currently unknown

Facts used in scoring: 3

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: 15.4 g/t gold is exceptionally high for a porphyry target.

Evidence · table

> 15.3

Context: 1

**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 standards, blanks, and duplicates, and names SGS Geosol.

Evidence · text

> insertion of blind certified reference materials \(standards\), blanks and field duplicate samples

**Apparent Width Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states the true width is currently unknown.

Evidence · text

> The true width of the intersection is currently unknown.

## 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.
