## Minestarters Atlas summary

Fireweed Metals has reported successful step-out drilling at the Tom South zone of the Macpass Project, extending the known mineralized zone by 300m down-dip and 45m laterally. The results include high-grade zinc-equivalent intercepts, including 30m at 8.09% ZnEq in hole TS26-001.

Reasoning: Significant step-out drilling successfully expanded the mineralized zone both down-dip and laterally, intersecting high-grade ZnEq intervals outside the current mineral resource.

- Positive factor: Step-Out Extension

- Positive factor: True Width Disclosed

- Positive factor: QA/QC Disclosed

Facts used in scoring: 21

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Hole TS25-003 extended the known extent of the mineralized zone 300 m in the down-dip direction.

Evidence · text

> Hole TS25-003, a major step-out, extended the known extent of the mineralized zone 300 m in the down-dip direction

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The release provides estimated true widths for primary intervals in Table 1.

Evidence · text

> Intersected thicknesses shown – see Table 1 for full results and true thicknesses.

**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 details a rigorous QA/QC program including blanks, standards, and duplicates, with Bureau Veritas as an accredited lab.

Evidence · text

> The diamond drill core logging and sampling program was carried out under a rigorous quality assurance / quality control program

## 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.
