# Nuvau Intersects 17.37 g/t over 2.40 m, extending Gold Mineralization 50 Metres from High-Grade Thundermine Intercept Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/nuvau-intersects-17-37-g-t-over-2-40-m-extending-gold-mineralization-50-metres-f--823985f2-4601-4387-a033-011096c69e3f Original source: https://nuvauminerals.com/2026/nuvau-intersects-17-37-g-t-over-2-40-m-extending-gold-mineralization-50-metres-from-high-grade-thundermine-intercept/ Publisher: prospectors\_exchange Original announcement: 2026-09-17T00:00:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: 2026-09-17T12:49:18.447Z Atlas analysis updated: 2026-09-17T12:49:18.447Z - Company: Nuvau Minerals Inc. - Ticker: NMC - Exchange: Unavailable - Region: Québec - Primary commodity: Gold - Secondary commodities: None reported - Document categories: Drill results - Extracted: 2026-09-17 12:49:19 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.60 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Nuvau Minerals reported a high-grade gold intercept of 17.37 g/t Au over 2.40 m in hole TH-26-11 at the Thundermine project. This result represents a 50-metre step-out from previous drilling and supports the continuity of the orogenic gold system. Reasoning: The intercept of 17.37 g/t Au over 2.40 m is a successful step-out that demonstrates continuity of the mineralized system, though true width is not disclosed. - Positive factor: Step-Out Extension - Positive factor: QA/QC Disclosed - Positive factor: continuity of the mineralized system - Negative factor: Apparent Width Only Facts used in scoring: 2 ## Classification and evidence **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: TH-26-11 is a 50-metre step-out from TH-26-08. Evidence · text > TH-26-11 is a 50-metre step-out from TH-26-08 **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: Release mentions MSALABS \(ISO/IEC 17025 accredited\), standards, blanks, and duplicates. Evidence · text > MSALABS in Val-d’Or, Québec, an independent ISO/IEC 17025-accredited laboratory. **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 document explicitly states that reported intervals are core lengths and true widths are unknown. Evidence · text > reported intervals are core lengths; true widths are unknown. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 2.

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.
