## Minestarters Atlas summary

QIMC has reported headspace gas results from borehole DDH-26-02 at the West Advocate project. The results show hydrogen concentrations that are 2.75x higher than the previous hole, with concentrations increasing at depth.

Reasoning: The results show increasing hydrogen concentrations at depth, which is a positive exploration signal for a new commodity type.

- Positive factor: increasing concentrations observed at depth

- Positive factor: peak results significantly higher than previous hole

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 results indicate increasing concentrations at depth, suggesting the mineralized zone extends deeper than previously known.

Evidence · text

> increasing concentrations observed at depth

#### Tags used in scoring

**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: qaqc\_disclosed is not true

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

## 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.
