# High-Grade Tungsten Mineralization Confirmed at Rackla Metals’ Lentung Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/high-grade-tungsten-mineralization-confirmed-at-rackla-metals-lentung--35886a85-2cb1-491e-82c4-6a3388210287 Original source: https://racklametals.com/high-grade-tungsten-mineralization-confirmed-at-rackla-metals-lentung/ Publisher: prospectors\_exchange Original announcement: 2026-10-13T00:00:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: 2026-10-13T14:30:32.147Z Atlas analysis updated: 2026-10-13T14:30:32.147Z - Company: Rackla Metals Inc. - Ticker: RAK - Exchange: Unavailable - Region: Northwest Territories - Primary commodity: Tungsten - Secondary commodities: Copper - Document categories: Drill results - Extracted: 2026-10-13 14:30:32 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.60 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Rackla Metals has announced assay results from its first four modern diamond drill holes at the Lentung tungsten project in the NWT. The results confirm broad, high-grade tungsten mineralization that aligns with historical Union Carbide data and shows potential for both open pit and underground mining. Reasoning: First modern drill results from the Lentung project confirm high-grade tungsten mineralization consistent with historical data, providing significant de-risking for a future resource estimate. - Positive factor: High-grade tungsten intercepts confirmed - Positive factor: Broad mineralized intervals - Positive factor: Corroborates historical high-grade resource - Positive factor: QA/QC protocols disclosed with accredited lab - Negative factor: RC drilling discontinued due to groundwater issues Facts used in scoring: 8 ## 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 standards, blanks, and SGS Canada Inc. as an accredited lab. Evidence · text > Standard reference materials and blanks were also inserted every 50 samples into the sample stream. **Infill Drilling** Polarity: neutral Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery. Why it applies: The company describes the RC portion as infill drilling and the diamond drilling as providing supplementary infill information. Evidence · text > Rackla attempted reverse circulation \(RC\) drilling as a low-cost and rapid means of in-fill drilling on the property. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 8. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (8) ### DDH26L-001 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/high-grade-tungsten-mineralization-confirmed-at-rackla-metals-lentung--35886a85-2cb1-491e-82c4-6a3388210287#fact-drill-facts-0) Lentung · tungsten #### Identity - Hole ID: DDH26L-001 - Project: Lentung - Commodity: tungsten - Region: northwest territories - Reported Region: northwest territories - Ticker: RAK #### Geometry - Grade: 1.72 - Grade Unit: % - Intercept: 20.35 m - From: 11 m - To: 31.35 m - Intercept Depth: 11 m #### Classification - Sample Type: drill - Group ID: DDH26L-001:11-31.35 - Mining Method: open\_pit #### Location - Location: Central Zone - Loc.

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.
