This new target, located on the northern continuation of the Caneleira trend, is supported by high-grade rock samples up to 6.52 g/t gold and strong geochemical/geophysical indicators. Concurrently, the company remains on track to submit its Fazenda-Butia LP application by year-end, with an extension granted for its Terms of Reference. Reasoning: Lavras Gold is expanding its exploration capacity to a new, promising target \(Cerrito North\) supported by high-grade surface samples, while also making progress on permitting for its Fazenda-Butia project, indicating strong advancement of its development strategy. - Positive factor: Approval of a fourth drill rig to accelerate exploration at a new target. - Positive factor: High-grade surface rock samples \(up to 6.52 g/t Au and >100 g/t Ag\) at the new Cerrito North target. - Positive factor: Permitting application for Fazenda-Butia project remains on track and received an extension of terms of reference. - Negative factor: Rock samples are selective and not necessarily representative of mineralization. - Negative factor: No actual drill results are reported in this release, only planned drilling. Facts used in scoring: 79 ## Classification and evidence **QA/QC Disclosed** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\). Why it applies: The release includes a detailed QA/QC section outlining sample handling, preparation, analysis, and the use of certified reference materials and blanks. Evidence · text > QA/QC Quality Assurance & Quality Control: Sample handling, preparation, and analysis are monitored through the implementation of formal chain-of-custody procedures and quality assurance/quality control programs designed to follow industry best practices. **Certified Lab** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: No canonical definition is currently available. Why it applies: SGS GEOSOL Laboratórios S.A. is explicitly stated as being accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017. Evidence · text > SGS GEOSOL Laboratórios S.A. of Vespasiano, Minas Gerais State, Brazil, a laboratory accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017. **QP/CP Signed** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience. Why it applies: Jonathan Hill is named as the 'Qualified Person' under NI 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the technical information. Evidence · text > Jonathan Hill, Director and Interim Vice President of Exploration for Lavras Gold Corp., is the "Qualified Person" as defined under National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, and has reviewed and approved the technical information contained in this release. **Deleterious Elements Present** Polarity: negative Story-specific tag Definition: Penalty elements \(arsenic, antimony, etc.\) or refractory concerns noted in the release. Why it applies: Rock sample 23464 returned elevated levels of lead, zinc, copper, molybdenum, and 3.4% sulphur, and the geochemical signature mentions tungsten, molybdenum, antimony, and arsenic. Evidence · text > The highest gold value, sample 23464, also returned silver above the upper reporting limit of the method \(>100 g/t\) , together with 3,792 ppm lead, 573 ppm zinc, 180 ppm copper, 397 ppm molybdenum and 3.4% sulphur. **Exploration Drilling** Polarity: neutral Story-specific tag Definition: No canonical definition is currently available. Why it applies: The planned drill program at Cerrito North is described as a 'first pass test' to establish if surface geochemistry is underlain by mineralized bedrock, not to define continuity or support resource estimation. Evidence · text > The program is a first pass test of the target: its objective is to establish whether the gold-in-soil anomaly is underlain by mineralized bedrock at shallow depth, rather than to define continuity or to support the estimation of mineral resources. **Nearology Play** Polarity: neutral Story-specific tag Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results. Why it applies: Cerrito North is positioned as being 'on the northern continuation of the Caneleira trend' and 'approximately two kilometres north-northwest of the Cerrito deposit'. Evidence · text > Located approximately two kilometres north-northwest of the Cerrito deposit and on the northern continuation of the Caneleira trend, Cerrito North extends the Company's systematic testing of this district-scale corridor. **Stale Estimate** Polarity: negative Story-specific tag Definition: Effective date is >2 years old — data currency concern, may not reflect current geological understanding. Why it applies: The effective dates for the referenced Cerrito and Fazenda-Butia resource estimates are May 31, 2022, and January 25, 2022, respectively, which are over two years old. Evidence · text > NI 43-101 Technical Report Mineral Resource for the Butiá Gold Prospect, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil.

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.
