## Minestarters Atlas summary

NevGold has completed gravity and CSAMT geophysical surveys at the Nutmeg Mountain Gold Project in Idaho, identifying nine new drill targets including three potential high-grade feeder structures at depth. The company also restated its 2025 Mineral Resource Estimate of 1.19 Moz Indicated and 548 koz Inferred gold to support the new targeting model.

Reasoning: The announcement uses geophysical surveys to define new drill targets and restates the 2025 Mineral Resource Estimate to provide context for the new targets.

- Positive factor: Identification of high-priority feeder targets at depth

- Positive factor: Geophysical surveys confirm structural continuity beyond historical drilling

- Positive factor: Expansion potential for near-surface mineral resource

- Negative factor: Results are geophysical interpretations, not direct assay results

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**Resource Update**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Revised estimate for an existing resource — compare to prior to assess progress.

Why it applies: The document provides a restatement of the 2025 Mineral Resource Estimate to contextualize new geophysical targets.

Evidence · text

> 2025 Mineral Resource Estimate \(“MRE"\) of 1.19 Mozs of Indicated Resources

**NI 43-101 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with NI 43-101 \(Canada\) — high reporting standard.

Why it applies: The resource estimate is explicitly stated to be prepared in accordance with NI 43-101.

Evidence · text

> All mineral resources have been estimated in accordance with Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum definitions, as required under National Instrument 43-101

## 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.
