The update also highlights ongoing RC drilling at Hopes Hill and provides a recap of recent high-grade gold intercepts from the Greenmount area. Reasoning: The announcement primarily focuses on the commencement of a new aircore drilling program \(exploration update\), while re-stating high-grade historical results from a previous RC program to provide context. - Positive factor: commencement of maiden aircore program - Positive factor: re-statement of high-grade historical RC results - Positive factor: expansive regional tenure - Negative factor: historical results are re-released rather than new assays Facts used in scoring: 3 ## Classification and evidence **Stale Data Re-release** Polarity: negative Definition: Historical results re-announced with no new assays or reinterpretation — low genuine novelty. Why it applies: The high-grade intercepts for 26GMRC006, 26GMRC004, and 26GMRC005 are explicitly referenced as being from previous announcements. Evidence · text > which included the following results1,2: **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 document includes a Competent Person's Statement and a Qualified Person's Statement signed by Travis Vernon. Evidence · text > Mr. Vernon has reviewed and approved the technical disclosure in this announcement. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 3. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (3) ### 26GMRC006 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/ghm-southern-cross-regional-exploration-update--3f84936c-4328-458e-a4cb-e58b1139800a#fact-drill-facts-0) Southern Cross · gold Historical result Needs review: historical\_restatement #### Identity - Hole ID: 26GMRC006 - Project: Southern Cross - Commodity: gold - Region: australia\_wa - Reported Region: australia\_wa - Ticker: GHM #### Geometry - Grade: 16.3 - Grade Unit: g/t - Intercept: 8 m - From: 209 m - To: 217 m - Intercept Depth: 209 m #### Classification - Sample Type: drill - Group ID: 26GMRC006:209-217 #### Review - Needs Review: Yes - Review Reason: historical\_restatement - Interp.

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.
