## Minestarters Atlas summary

Au Gold Corp has reported high-grade gold grab samples from the Shaw's Main mine dump, with the strongest sample returning 54.20 g/t gold. The company also identified two new high-priority diamond drill targets, Shaw's Main and Rob Roy, at its Havelock Gold-Antimony project in Victoria, Australia.

Reasoning: High-grade gold grab samples \(up to 54.20 g/t\) from a mine dump and the definition of two new drill targets provide significant exploration momentum, though the lack of company-inserted QA/QC and the use of grab samples instead of drill intercepts limits technical certainty.

- Positive factor: High-grade grab samples from mine dump

- Positive factor: Identification of two new high-priority drill targets

- Positive factor: Historical context of ultra-high-grade mineralization

- Negative factor: No company-inserted QA/QC samples

- Negative factor: Results are from grab samples, not drill intercepts

- Negative factor: Reliance on historical records pre-dating NI 43-101

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: The release positions the new drill targets based on their proximity to historical workings and documented mineralization in the Shaw's Main and Rob Roy mines.

Evidence · text

> The Shaw’s Main and Rob Roy past producing mines are quality drill targets with the potential for shallow high-grade gold discoveries beneath the historical workings.

**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: While the lab uses QA/QC, the company explicitly stated they did not insert additional QA/QC samples.

Evidence · text

> On Site inserts blanks and standards into the analytical process, AUGC did not insert additional QA/QC samples.
