The program targeted areas to better characterize internal dilution for future resource modeling. Reasoning: Drilling results confirm historical continuity and validate the existing mineral resource model, reducing geological risk. - Positive factor: confirms overall grade and tenor of the vein set - Positive factor: consistent with historically reported intercepts - Positive factor: no systematic grade bias observed - Negative factor: validation drilling rather than new discovery Facts used in scoring: 18 ## 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: Release mentions modern sampling protocols and extensive sampling throughout mineralized zones. Evidence · text > Modern sampling protocols were used for this work **Infill Drilling** Polarity: neutral Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery. Why it applies: The program was designed as a validation program to update historical sections of the No. 3 vein. Evidence · text > designed to update, with modern drilling, sections of the No. 3 vein set which are largely informed by historical drilling ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 18.

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.
