## Minestarters Atlas summary

Nord Precious Metals has reported high-grade silver and cobalt drill results from hole CS-21-73W3 at the Castle East project. The results include a bonanza silver intercept of 25,803 g/t over 0.3m and a 5cm true width vein, extending the Robinson high-grade vein system.

Reasoning: High-grade silver and cobalt intercepts \(25,803 g/t Ag and 3.60% Co\) represent a significant step-out extension of the Robinson high-grade vein system with stated true widths.

- Positive factor: Step-Out Extension

- Positive factor: Bonanza Intercept

- Positive factor: True Width Disclosed

- Positive factor: QA/QC Disclosed

Facts used in scoring: 16

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The intercept provides a direct extension of the Robinson high-grade silver vein system, 25 metres up-dip and south of CS-21-73W1.

Evidence · text

> provides a direct extension of the Robinson high-grade silver vein system

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The silver intercept of 25,803 g/t is exceptionally high grade.

Evidence · text

> Including 25,803 g/t Silver

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states the true thickness of the vein is approximately 5cm.

Evidence · text

> the vein intercepted at 480.8m is approximately 5cm true width

**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 details the insertion of blanks, standards, and duplicates by Swastika Laboratories Ltd.

Evidence · text

> includes the insertion of one blank and one standard every 20 samples, in addition to the regular insertion of blanks, duplicates, and standards

## 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.
