## Minestarters Atlas summary

Gold Terra has announced the discovery of visible gold in hole CMUP-005 during early sonic drilling at the Con Mine historical tailings. The 7,000-metre program aims to evaluate the gold potential of the tailings as a near-surface resource.

Reasoning: Discovery of visible gold in early sonic drilling confirms the potential of the historical tailings as a resource, though specific assay values are not yet provided.

- Positive factor: discovery of visible gold

- Positive factor: confirms strategy for tailings resource

- Positive factor: high historical grades in source material

- Negative factor: no assay grades reported for the specific intercept

Facts used in scoring: 1

## 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: The release mentions ALS is performing analyses and Joseph Campbell is the QP.

Evidence · text

> ALS is doing the analyses on the tailings. ... reviewed and approved by Joseph Campbell, a Qualified Person

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: The project targets historical tailings from the Con Mine, a known high-grade historical gold camp.

Evidence · text

> The historical tailings represent a compelling exploration target as the material originated from mined ore graded between 16 to 22 g/t Au

- Negative factor: no assay grade provided

Evidence · text

> discovery of visible gold in early sonic drill hole, CMUP-005, at a depth of 25-26 metres

#### Tags used in scoring

**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: qaqc\_disclosed is not true

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: proximity is offered as the value premise: "Gold Terra is currently focusing its drilling on the Campbell Shear, where approximately 14 Moz of gold has been produce"

## 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.
