The results from the X-Ray zone include an intercept of 1.90 g/t Au over 25.91 metres, successfully extending the mineralized footprint to the northeast. Reasoning: Successful step-out drilling at the X-Ray zone has extended the known gold footprint to the northeast with significant thicknesses and solid grades. - Positive factor: Step-out extension of mineralization - Positive factor: Thick oxide intercepts - Positive factor: Strong continuity Facts used in scoring: 6 ## Classification and evidence **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Drill holes GS23-10, GS23-11 and GS23-12 successfully extended gold mineralization to the northeast. Evidence · text > successfully extended gold mineralization to the northeast **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 review and approval by a Qualified Person \(Vance Spalding, CPG\). Evidence · text > reviewed and approved by Vance Spalding, CPG, VP Exploration, Contact Gold, who is a “qualified person” ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 6.

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.
