This intercept represents a ~32 m down-plunge extension of previously known mineralization, confirming structural continuity. Reasoning: Maiden drill results confirm a significant down-plunge extension of high-grade gold-silver mineralization at the Rainbow Zone, matching historical grade profiles. - Positive factor: Step-Out Extension - Positive factor: High-grade intercept - Positive factor: Continuity demonstrated - Negative factor: Deviated hole Facts used in scoring: 9 ## Classification and evidence **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: SC-26-003 extends mineralization ~32m down-plunge of SC-21-027. Evidence · text > represents an approximate 32 m down-plunge extension **QA/QC Disclosed** Polarity: positive Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).
