## Minestarters Atlas summary

Ongwe Minerals has identified a new 2km long gold anomaly at the Belmont Prospect within its Khorixas Gold Project in Namibia. The anomaly features mineralized wall rock up to 125m wide, with bedrock sampling showing grades up to 0.2 g/t gold.

Reasoning: Discovery of a new 2km anomaly with 125m wide mineralized wall rock, though current bedrock grades are low \(0.2 g/t\) and drilling is still required to test for higher-grade veins.

- Positive factor: newly discovered anomaly

- Positive factor: significant width

- Negative factor: low grade bedrock samples

- Negative factor: thick cover

Facts used in scoring: 1

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The announcement describes a newly discovered 'Plains' anomaly at the Belmont Prospect.

Evidence · text

> The newly discovered “Plains” anomaly is a compelling target

**No QA/QC Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document.

Why it applies: The release does not mention assay protocols, laboratory certification, or QA/QC methods for the bedrock sampling.

Evidence · text

> The bedrock sampling program

## 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.
