## Minestarters Atlas summary

Nine Mile Metals Ltd. announced high-grade drill results from hole DDH WD-26-10 at its Wedge Mine in New Brunswick, intersecting a 31.95m VMS zone grading 2.52% Cu-Eq, including a higher-grade section of 14.15m at 3.73% Cu-Eq. The company reported true widths for the intercepts and noted increasing silver, gold, lead, and zinc values at depth, further expanding the mineralized footprint towards a future mineral resource estimate.

Reasoning: The drill hole WD-26-10 intersected a significant high-grade VMS zone with exceptional copper equivalent grades and multiple base and precious metals, expanding the known mineralization at the Wedge Mine. The disclosure of true width and detailed QA/QC further enhances confidence in the results.

- Positive factor: High-grade VMS intercepts

- Positive factor: True width disclosed

- Positive factor: Multi-element value

- Positive factor: Expanding mineralized footprint

- Positive factor: Comprehensive QA/QC

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

Facts used in scoring: 18

## Classification and evidence

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states that 'The intervals are of true width' for the reported drill intercepts.

Evidence · text

> The intervals are of true width.

**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: The release details the independent commercial laboratory \(ALS Global\), assay methods, and the company's QA/QC program including CRM standards, duplicates, and blanks, with sign-off by a Qualified Person.

Evidence · text

> All samples were submitted to ALS Global in Moncton, an independent commercial laboratory, for preparation and assaying \(ME-ICP61a four-acid digestion with ICP-AES; Au by fire assay Au-AA23 with AA finish; overlimit Au by gravimetric analysis and overlimit base metals by OG62\). ALS runs its own QA/QC protocols including coarse and pulp duplicates. Nine Mile's QAQC program includes regular insertion of CRM standards, duplicates and blanks with a stringent review of all results; QAQC and data validation were performed and no material errors were observed. Technical information in this news release has been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and reviewed and approved by Gary Lohman, B.Sc., P.Geo., VP Exploration and Director, the Company's Qualified Person, who is not independent of the Company.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The drilling is described as continuing to expand the mineralized footprint in the southwest, indicating an extension of known mineralization.

Evidence · text

> Drilling continues to expand the mineralized footprint in the southwest.

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: The reported copper equivalent grades of 2.52%, 3.73%, and 5.16% Cu-Eq are well above the exceptional threshold for VMS copper deposits \(2.5%\).

## 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.
