## Minestarters Atlas summary

ONGold Resources has announced an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Monument Bay Gold Project in Manitoba, effective July 31, 2026. The update reports 74.39 Mt at 0.84 g/t Au \(Measured and Indicated\) and 24.46 Mt at 0.62 g/t Au \(Inferred\), totaling approximately 2.5 million ounces of gold. The release also highlights significant tungsten potential identified through recent re-logging and assaying of historical samples.

Reasoning: Significant update to a 2.5 Moz gold resource with high M&amp;I confidence and new tungsten potential.

- Positive factor: Substantial M&amp;I resource \(80% of total\)

- Positive factor: Updated geological model improves understanding

- Positive factor: Identified potential for tungsten resource expansion

- Positive factor: Open at depth and along strike

- Negative factor: Tungsten not included in current MRE

- Negative factor: Relies on historical data for some components

Facts used in scoring: 5

## Classification and evidence

**NI 43-101 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The MRE was prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 standards.

Evidence · text

> in accordance with... National Instrument 43-101

**Maiden Resource**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: First formal MRE for the project — establishes baseline but typically exploration-stage with high Inferred component.

Why it applies: The release describes an updated MRE, but the context of 'updated' and 'historical' suggests it is a revision of an existing resource rather than a maiden one.

## 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.
