## Minestarters Atlas summary

NevGold announced additional oxide-gold assays from its 2026 drill program at the Limousine Butte Project in Nevada, significantly expanding mineralization both inside and outside the 2026 MRE pit-shell. Key intercepts include 1.06 g/t oxide Au over 42.7 meters outside the pit-shell and 5.00 g/t oxide Au over 3.0 meters within a broader 1.23 g/t oxide Au over 27.4 meters inside the pit-shell. The company is fully funded for the next 12-18 months and continues to advance its Preliminary Economic Assessment and engineering studies.

Reasoning: The drill program successfully expanded oxide gold mineralization both within and outside the existing MRE pit-shell, including a high-grade intercept of 5.00 g/t Au over 3.0 meters and a significant width of 1.06 g/t Au over 42.7 meters, which are above the project's average grade and contribute to resource growth potential.

- Positive factor: High-grade gold intercept \(5.00 g/t Au\) significantly above project average and 75th percentile for deposit type

- Positive factor: Significant width gold intercept \(42.7 m at 1.06 g/t Au\) expanding mineralization outside the MRE pit-shell

- Positive factor: Mineralization expanded both inside and outside the existing MRE pit-shell, indicating resource growth potential

- Positive factor: Drill program is focused on resource expansion and conversion, aligning with strategic goals

- Positive factor: Company is fully funded for the next 12-18 months with over $45 million in treasury

- Positive factor: QA/QC protocols are disclosed, including certified lab and QP sign-off

- Negative factor: Antimony grades are generally below the project's prior average

- Negative factor: True width is reported as a range \(70% to 90% of downhole thickness\) rather than a specific value for each intercept

Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source.

**Apparent Width Only**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The footnote states that 'Downhole thickness reported; true width varies depending on drill hole dip and is approximately 70% to 90% of downhole thickness,' indicating that only apparent width is reported for the intercepts.

Evidence · text

> Downhole thickness reported; true width varies depending on drill hole dip and is approximately 70% to 90% of downhole thickness.

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Reasoning: This sub-interval shows gold mineralization below the project's average grade, offering limited economic upside.

- Negative factor: Grade \(0.51 g/t Au\) is below the project's average grade \(1.051 g/t Au\)

- Negative factor: True width is not explicitly stated, only a range \(70% to 90% of downhole thickness\)

Reasoning: This intercept represents a significant expansion of gold mineralization outside the existing pit-shell with a good grade over a substantial width, contributing positively to resource growth potential.

- Positive factor: Significant intercept length \(42.7 m\) with a good grade \(1.06 g/t Au\)

- Positive factor: Intercept grade \(1.06 g/t Au\) is above the project's average grade \(1.051 g/t Au\)

- Positive factor: Intercept expands mineralization outside the 2026 MRE pit-shell, indicating potential resource growth

- Negative factor: True width is not explicitly stated, only a range \(70% to 90% of downhole thickness\)

## 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.
