## Minestarters Atlas summary

Australia United Mining Limited's annual report for 2026 highlights trenching results from its Forsayth Project in Queensland, with assays up to 25.2 g/t gold at Queenslander and up to 1.48 g/t gold at Goldsmith North. The company also reported small-scale gold-silver doré production from the Ropewalk mine, yielding 1,120.1 grams of gold and 264.6 grams of silver. Financially, the Group recorded a net loss of $596,624 and faces a material uncertainty regarding its ability to continue as a going concern, relying on related party loans.

Reasoning: While the company reported bonanza-grade gold trenching results at Queenslander and initial small-scale production, these positives are overshadowed by a significant net loss, a material uncertainty regarding its going concern status, and continued reliance on related party funding.

- Positive factor: Exceptional gold grades from trenching at Queenslander

- Positive factor: Initial gold-silver doré production from Ropewalk mine

- Negative factor: Net loss for the year

- Negative factor: Material uncertainty regarding going concern

- Negative factor: Reliance on related party loans for funding

- Negative factor: Lower grades at Goldsmith North compared to prior sampling

- Negative factor: No field activities at Sofala Gold Project

- Negative factor: No QA/QC disclosure for trenching results

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The 25.2 g/t gold assay from trenching at Queenslander is an exceptionally high grade, well above the typical bonanza threshold for gold.

Evidence · text

> Composite rock-chip and channel samples returned gold assays ranging from 0.12 grams per tonne \(“g/t”\) to 25.2 g/t, including results of 25.2 g/t, 7.69 g/t and 6.30 g/t gold.

**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 reported widths of mineralisation \(up to 6m at Queenslander and 3m at Goldsmith North\) are from trenching and do not represent true widths from drill core, potentially overstating actual thickness.

Evidence · text

> The trenching exposed quartz veining and stockwork mineralisation ranging from approximately 0.2 metres to 6 metres in width

**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: The release does not disclose any QA/QC procedures, laboratory certifications, or Competent Person/Qualified Person sign-off for the trenching assay results.

Evidence · text

> Composite rock-chip and channel samples returned gold assays ranging from 0.12 grams per tonne \(“g/t”\) to 25.2 g/t, including results of 25.2 g/t, 7.69 g/t and 6.30 g/t gold.

## 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.
