The results include significant intercepts such as 5m at 3.21% CuEq and 26m at 0.63% CuEq, confirming continuity in the extension zone. Reasoning: New high-grade RC drill intercepts confirm mineralisation in a northern extension zone outside the current resource model, supporting resource growth potential. - Positive factor: high-grade copper-gold intercepts - Positive factor: extension of mineralisation outside existing resource model - Positive factor: broad mineralised widths reinforcing continuity Facts used in scoring: 7 ## Classification and evidence **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: New assays confirm mineralisation outside the existing Turpentine resource model in the northern extension zone. Evidence · text > confirm copper-gold mineralisation outside the existing Turpentine resource model ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 7.

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.
