## Minestarters Atlas summary

Critical Elements Lithium Corporation announced positive assay results from its Phase 2 Summer 2026 drill program at the Rose West Discovery in Québec, with significant lithium and tantalum intercepts. The drilling successfully expanded the mineralized footprint by an additional 300 x 300 m block, demonstrating lateral continuity of multiple pegmatite bodies. The program aims to further expand and define the geometry of the mineralized zones, with some results still pending.

Reasoning: The drill program delivered high-grade lithium and tantalum intercepts over significant widths, successfully expanding the mineralized footprint of the Rose West project. The program includes both infill and step-out drilling, indicating a mixed approach to resource definition and expansion. QA/QC procedures are disclosed, and a Qualified Person has approved the technical content, enhancing confidence. However, several holes have pending results, and a fault was identified, explaining the absence of mineralization in some areas.

Facts used in scoring: 34

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: Multiple intercepts show exceptional lithium grades \(e.g., 2.70% Li2O, 2.89% Li2O, 1.89% Li2O\) which are well above the exceptional threshold for lithium \(1.8% Li2O\).

Evidence · text

> 2.70% Li 2 O and 222 ppm Ta 2 O 5 over 10.50 m

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length.

Why it applies: The document states that the true thickness is between 80 to 95% of the core length, providing an estimate for true width.

Evidence · text

> Core length; the true thickness is between 80 to 95% of the core length.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The drill program is explicitly designed to expand the mineralized footprint and grow the known mineralized volume from its current boundary outward.

Evidence · text

> apply a 100 m grid approach to grow the known mineralized volume from its current boundary outward. The program targets the expansion of the mineralized footprint

**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 includes a section detailing quality assurance and quality control procedures, mentioning standards, duplicates, and blanks, and naming ALS Minerals as the laboratory.

Evidence · text

> Quality assurance and quality control procedures have been implemented to ensure best practices in sampling and analysis of the drill core samples. Standards, duplicate and blanks were regularly inserted into the sample stream. The drill core samples were delivered, in secure tagged bags to the ALS Minerals laboratory facility in Val-d'Or, Québec.

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery.

Why it applies: The drill program includes infill drilling along Line C to confirm grade and thickness continuity of intersected pegmatites.

Evidence · text

> Infill drilling along Line C \( Figure 1 \), to confirm grade and thickness continuity of the intersected pegmatites;

**Pending Results**

Polarity: negative

Story-specific tag

Definition: No canonical definition is currently available.

Why it applies: Several drillholes \(RW-26-36, RW-26-37, RW-26-53, RW-26-54, RW-26-55, RW-26-56A, RW-26-57\) have 'P.R.' \(Pending Results\) or 'N.S.' \(No Spodumene\) for their assay values, indicating incomplete data.

## 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.
