## Minestarters Atlas summary

K2 Gold Corporation announced strong drill results from the final four holes of its first phase of drilling at the Dragonfly Zone of the Mojave Project. Highlights include 83.82m of 3.40 g/t Au from surface, including 19.81m of 7.58 g/t Au, representing the highest-grade and widest gold intercepts of the 2026 program to date and extending mineralization to the north. Other significant intercepts confirmed historical results and further defined high-grade zones, with all holes intersecting high-grade oxide gold mineralization.

Reasoning: The drill results, particularly DF26-031, show exceptional gold grades over significant widths from surface, extending known mineralization and confirming continuity at the Dragonfly Zone. The presence of thallium is noted as a potential deleterious element.

- Positive factor: Exceptional Grade-Width Product

- Positive factor: High Grade

- Positive factor: Wide Intercept

- Positive factor: From Surface

- Positive factor: Step-Out Extension

- Positive factor: Confirms Continuity

- Negative factor: Apparent Width Only

#### Tags used in scoring

**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: qaqc\_disclosed is 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

#### Rejected tags

**Bonanza Intercept** — Rejected; excluded from scoring

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Reason: The grade of 3.40 g/t Au over 83.82m from surface is a strong grade-width product for an open-pit gold target, exceeding the 'strong' threshold for gold in an open-pit setting \(2 g/t Au\).

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

#### Rejected tags

**Bonanza Intercept** — Rejected; excluded from scoring

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Reason: The grade of 8.53 g/t Au over 9.15m is an exceptional grade for an open-pit gold target, well above the 'exceptional' threshold \(5 g/t Au\).

Evidence · table

> 8.53

Context: 9.15

**Apparent Width Only** — Rejected; excluded from scoring

Polarity: negative

Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness.

Reason: The document explicitly states that reported widths are drilled/apparent widths and true thickness is unknown.

Evidence · text

> Reported widths are from angled drill holes and are drilled/apparent widths; true thickness of mineralization is currently unknown.

**Deleterious Elements Present** — Rejected; excluded from scoring

Polarity: negative

Definition: Penalty elements \(arsenic, antimony, etc.\) or refractory concerns noted in the release.

Reason: Thallium values up to 16.2 ppm are noted in the highest gold grade interval.

Evidence · text

> Four to five-x background \(2 to 3 ppm\) thallium values \(up to 16.2 ppm\) are noted in the highest gold grade interval starting at 68.58m

## 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.
