## Minestarters Atlas summary

Canstar Resources has intersected a potential VMS feeder zone at its Mary March Project in Newfoundland with the first hole of its 2026 program \(MM-26-41\). The hole traced 271 metres of altered, sulphide-bearing rhyolite, including 118 metres of strong stringer mineralization, supporting the company's geological model. Assays are currently pending.

Reasoning: The hole MM-26-41 intersected a significant 271m interval of sulphide-bearing host rock, validating the VMS feeder zone model, though actual grades are not yet available via assay.

- Positive factor: significant intercept thickness

- Positive factor: geological model validation

- Positive factor: proximity to high-grade historic district

- Positive factor: independent litho-geochemical support

- Negative factor: assays pending

- Negative factor: no grades reported

- Negative factor: apparent widths only

Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source.

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**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 mentions a Qualified Person \(Bob Patey, P.Geo.\) has reviewed and approved the technical information.

Evidence · text

> Qualified Person Bob Patey, B.Sc. \(Hons.\), P.Geo... has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information

**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 company explicitly states that the reported intervals are apparent widths and true widths are not yet determined.

Evidence · text

> These are apparent widths; true widths and grades are not yet known.

## 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.
