The program included 3,255 metres of drilling across twelve holes, alongside geotechnical, hydrogeological, and environmental baseline studies to support a March 2027 Plan of Operations submission. Reasoning: The announcement marks the successful completion of a multi-faceted summer program \(drilling, geotechnical, environmental\) which provides critical de-risking data for the upcoming Plan of Operations submission. - Positive factor: completion of drilling and fieldwork - Positive factor: advancement of permitting schedule - Positive factor: establishment of baseline data for Plan of Operations Facts used in scoring: 5 ## 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 Kyle Mehalek, P.E., is the QP within the meaning of NI 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the technical disclosure.

Status: scored - Historical: No #### Dates - Event date: 2026-10-13T00:00:00.000Z Reasoning: The drilling was completed as part of a resource definition program, but no specific assay results or grades were reported in this release. - Positive factor: completion of 3,255m drilling Evidence · text > Completion of twelve drillholes totalling 3,255 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 **Infill Drilling** Polarity: neutral Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery. Why it applies: drill\_program\_type is "resource" **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: "Work completed during summer 2026 included: Completion of twelve drillholes totalling 3,255 metres from five platforms –" ## Resource Estimates (4) ### indicated [Link to this fact](https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/grande-portage-resources-announces-completion-of-2026-drill-program-and-summer-f--225ace95-7249-4944-897a-7822c7776634#fact-resource-facts-1) New Amalga Gold Project · gold Historical result Needs review: historical\_restatement #### Identity - Project: New Amalga Gold Project - Commodity: gold - Region: usa\_ak - Reported Region: southeast Alaska - Ticker: GPG #### Resource scope - Estimate type: resource - Resource group id: resource:6afdd9f53e9f3ff4f288 #### Resource Data - Category: indicated - Tonnes: 4726000 - Grade: 9.47 - Grade Unit: g/t - Contained Metal: 1438500 - Contained Unit: oz #### Prior Estimate - Resource Date: 2024-07-17 #### Review - Needs Review: Yes - Review Reason: historical\_restatement - Historical: Yes - Historical Source Date: 2024-07-17T00:00:00.000Z #### Dates - Event date: 2026-10-13T00:00:00.000Z Reasoning: This is a restatement of the existing MRE provided in the company boilerplate.
