## Minestarters Atlas summary

Osisko Gold has completed an infill drilling program in the Lowhee Zone of the Cariboo Gold Project. The reconciliation analysis shows localized variability, with Zone 1 seeing higher tonnage/lower grade and Zone 2 seeing lower tonnage/higher grade, broadly validating the existing resource model.

Reasoning: The infill program provides reconciliation data that validates the geological model, though it shows localized grade/tonnage variability \(Zone 1 grade down, Zone 2 grade up\).

- Positive factor: Infill drilling validates existing model assumptions

- Positive factor: Zone 2 shows grade improvement

- Positive factor: Supports upcoming loan facility drawdown

- Negative factor: Zone 1 shows grade decline

- Negative factor: Lower core recovery noted in mineralized intervals

Facts used in scoring: 6

## Classification and evidence

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery.

Why it applies: The program was a systemic grid infill drilling campaign to assess local variability.

Evidence · text

> completion of the infill drill program in the Lowhee Zone

**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 mentions core recovery rates which is a component of drilling quality/QA/QC.

Evidence · text

> Average core recovery from the infill drilling was approximately 92% in 2025 and improved to approximately 94% in 2026.

## 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.
