## Minestarters Atlas summary

GoldHaven Resources Corp. completed an eight-hole drill program at its Kuhn tungsten-skarn target in British Columbia, intersecting skarn mineralization approximately 80 metres from a previous intercept. While assays are pending, the results suggest geological continuity of the skarn system. The company has now moved drilling to the D Zone to test historical polymetallic mineralization.

Reasoning: The document reports the completion of a drill program that intersected skarn mineralization, suggesting continuity, but lacks assay grades to confirm economic significance.

- Positive factor: geological continuity suggested by intersecting skarn 80m apart

- Positive factor: potential for larger skarn system at Kuhn

- Negative factor: assays are pending

- Negative factor: historical D Zone results are unverified

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: The program was designed to improve geological understanding of the existing skarn system.

Evidence · text

> The program was designed to improve the geological understanding of the geometry, thickness and continuity of the tungsten-bearing skarn system.

**No QA/QC Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document.

Why it applies: While the company mentions submitting samples for analysis, specific QA/QC protocols or lab certifications are not detailed in this release.

Evidence · text

> Core from the Kuhn program is being logged, sampled and submitted for laboratory analysis

## 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.
