## Minestarters Atlas summary

Quantum Critical Metals Corp. has reported exceptional high-grade silver results from surface sampling at its Babine South property in British Columbia. Independent re-assays of 2024 samples confirmed silver values as high as 308 oz/t, supporting the project's epithermal silver potential.

Reasoning: Exceptional silver grades \(up to 308 oz/t\) confirmed by independent re-assay of previous surface samples, demonstrating significant exploration upside.

- Positive factor: Bonanza-grade silver confirmed

- Positive factor: Independent re-assay confirmation

- Positive factor: QA/QC disclosed

- Positive factor: Polymetallic credits

- Negative factor: Surface sampling only

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: Silver values up to 308 oz/t are exceptionally high for the deposit type.

Evidence · text

> bonanza-grade silver up to 308 oz/t \(9,580 gpt\) Ag

**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 independent re-assay by SGS Canada Minerals using ISO/IEC 17025 standards.

Evidence · text

> The samples were analyzed by SGS Canada Minerals, Lakefield... SGS Lakefield operates in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025 standards.

## 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.
