The results extend the known mineralization footprint and include significant silver and gold credits. Reasoning: The drill hole DDH WD-26-18 returned an exceptional high-grade copper equivalent intercept of 7.13% CuEq over 11.65m, extending the known footprint. - Positive factor: High-grade VMS intercept - Positive factor: Step-out extension of known mineralization - Positive factor: Multi-element value \(Au/Ag credits\) 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 company stated they continue to extend the footprint of mineralization previously intersected in other holes. Evidence · text > we continue to extend the footprint of the mineralization previously intersected in WD-24-02, WD-24-04, WD-24-05, WD-24-06 and WD-24-07 **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: The 9.93% CuEq and 10.46% CuEq intercepts are exceptionally high grade for a VMS deposit. Evidence · text > 9.93% CuEq over 6.70 metres ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 4. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (4) ### WD-26-18 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/nine-mile-rallies-on-new-brunswick-vms-drilling-results--e008860c-c296-47e2-bb5e-4733402bfaa7#fact-drill-facts-0) Wedge · copper #### Identity - Hole ID: WD-26-18 - Project: Wedge - Commodity: copper - Region: canada\_nb - Reported Region: canada\_nb - Ticker: NINE #### Geometry - Grade: 7.13 - Grade Unit: % - Intercept: 11.65 m - Hole Depth: 302 m #### Classification - Deposit Type: vms - Program: exploration - Sample Type: drill - Group ID: DDH WD-26-18:0-11.65 - Mining Method: underground #### Location - Location: northeast edge of the drill pattern - Loc.

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.
