## Minestarters Atlas summary

Millennial Potash has completed drillhole BA-006 at the Banio project in Gabon, intersecting approximately 80 metres of potash mineralization. The results expand the known potash footprint and encounter new cycles \(IX and X\), suggesting increasing thickness to the west and potential for resource expansion.

Reasoning: Drillhole BA-006 intersected ~80m of potash mineralization, expanding the footprint southwest of the current MRE and encountering new geological cycles.

- Positive factor: significant expansion of known footprint

- Positive factor: intersection of previously unencountered cycles \(IX and X\)

- Positive factor: mineralization remains open at depth

- Positive factor: strategic location closer to planned port

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The drillhole BA-006 expands the known potash footprint southwest of the current MRE area.

Evidence · text

> significantly expanding the known potash footprint southwest of the current Mineral Resource Estimate area

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery.

Why it applies: The drillhole is part of a Phase 2 program testing for additional horizons beyond the current MRE.

Evidence · text

> The Phase 2 program tested for additional potash horizons beyond the current MRE

## 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.
