Notable intercepts include 6.96 g/t Au over 4.57m and 5.06 g/t Au over 10.67m, extending mineralization to the east and southeast. Reasoning: Strong step-out drill results at the X-Ray zone with high-grade intercepts \(up to 6.96 g/t Au\) extending known mineralization. - Positive factor: Step-Out Extension - Positive factor: Strong grades in X-Ray zone - Positive factor: Continuity demonstrated Facts used in scoring: 7 ## Classification and evidence **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Results extend mineralization to the east and southeast from 2021 discovery holes. Evidence · text > These new results further extend mineralization to the east and southeast from the 2021 discovery holes **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: Intercepts of 5.06 g/t and 6.96 g/t Au are exceptionally high grade. Evidence · text > Including: 5.06 g/t Au over 10.67 metres **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: 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: 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.
