# Corvus Gold Outlines 2016 Exploration Program to Build on New Discoveries from 2015 at the North Bullfrog Project, NV Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/corvus-gold-outlines-2016-exploration-program-to-build-on-new-discoveries-from-2--58675d6d-589b-4a47-85c3-a2ef3769a1aa Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/KOR/news/72167821/corvus-gold-outlines-2016-exploration-program-to-build-on-new-discoveries-from-2 Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2016-02-23T13:00:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Corvus Gold Inc. - Ticker: KOR - Exchange: TSX - Region: Nevada - Primary commodity: Gold - Secondary commodities: Silver, Copper - Document categories: Drill results, Resource update - Extracted: 2026-08-23 20:16:56 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.60 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Corvus Gold has announced its 2016 exploration program for the North Bullfrog project in Nevada, focusing on follow-up drilling at several new high-grade targets. The company also provided a summary of its existing mineral resource estimates for both mill and heap leach processing. Reasoning: The announcement outlines a significant 2016 exploration program and restates existing resource estimates, highlighting new high-grade potential at NW Sierra Blanca and Savage targets. - Positive factor: high-grade intercepts reported - Positive factor: expansion of known deposit area - Positive factor: multiple targets identified Facts used in scoring: 21 ## 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 blind certified standard reference materials, blanks, and replicate samples. Evidence · text > Quality control is monitored by the insertion of blind certified standard reference materials and blanks **QP/CP Signed** Polarity: positive Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience. Why it applies: Jeffrey A. Pontius and Carl E. Brechtel are named as Qualified Persons. Evidence · text > Jeffrey A. Pontius \(CPG 11044\), a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 **Inferred Resource** Polarity: negative Definition: Speculative category — limited drilling, geological continuity assumed but not confirmed. Cannot support economic studies alone. Why it applies: The resource estimate contains significant Inferred components. Evidence · text > an inferred resource of 1.48 Mt ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 21.

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.
