The 'New Vein Cluster' returned gold assays up to 7.83 g/t and silver up to 108 g/t from intersecting epithermal quartz veins. The company plans follow-up trenching and geophysical surveys to define the extent of the mineralization beneath overburden. Reasoning: Discovery of a new high-grade target area with multiple vein sets in an epithermal system, though results are currently limited to surface rock samples. - Positive factor: High-grade gold and silver assays from previously unsampled outcrop - Positive factor: Multiple intersecting vein orientations suggesting structural complexity - Positive factor: QA/QC protocols disclosed including certified lab and QP sign-off - Negative factor: Results are from rock sampling \(grab/float\) which is selective and not necessarily representative - Negative factor: Mineralization is obscured by overburden, requiring further work to define continuity 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 includes details on ALS Limited accreditation, NATA, and use of standards, blanks, and duplicates. Evidence · text > ALS is accredited by NATA to ISO/IEC 17025 and is independent of the Company and the Qualified Person. **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Identifies a new target area in the northeast of Wainikoro that was previously unsampled. Evidence · text > from a single, previously unsampled outcrop \(the "New Vein Cluster" **Mill Route** Polarity: neutral Definition: Processing via mill or concentrator \(CIL, CIP, tank leach, flotation\). Why it applies: the document describes a mill\_cil route \("CIP"\) **Gravity Route** Polarity: neutral Definition: Gravity separation forms a material part of the flowsheet. Why it applies: the document describes a gravity route \("gravity"\) ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 8.
