## Minestarters Atlas summary

Royal Road Minerals announced positive rock-chip channel sampling results from its Ash Shajjah prospect in Saudi Arabia, part of the Jabal Sahabiyah gold exploration project. The program extended the known gold mineralization to over 800 meters of strike, with highlights including 6 meters at 15.0 g/t gold. The company plans follow-up drilling to test these veins and their concealed extensions.

Reasoning: Royal Road Minerals reported encouraging rock-chip channel sampling results from its Ash Shajjah prospect, including a high-grade intercept of 6 meters at 15.0 g/t gold. The program extended the known gold mineralization to over 800 meters of strike, with potential for an open-pit scenario, and the company plans follow-up drilling. However, the results are from surface samples and are not true widths.

- Positive factor: High-grade gold intercept \(15.0 g/t over 6m\)

- Positive factor: Extension of gold mineralization to over 800 meters strike length

- Positive factor: Potential for open-pit style scenario

- Positive factor: Follow-up drilling planned

- Negative factor: Results are from rock-chip channel samples, not drill core

- Negative factor: Intercepts are not true widths

Facts used in scoring: 18

## Classification and evidence

**Apparent Width Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states 'Not true widths' for the reported intercepts and the table header notes '\*NOT TRUE LENGTH'.

Evidence · text

> \(Note: Not true widths; the Company does not yet have sufficient information to determine true widths\)

**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 details sample preparation, analysis procedures, and the insertion of CRMs, Blanks, and Duplicates into the sample batch.

Evidence · text

> Quality Assurance and Quality Control Sample preparation and analyses are conducted according to standard industry procedures at certified laboratories. ... QAQC materials including CRMs, Blanks, and Duplicates were inserted into the sample batch on a ratio of 1:28.

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The ASCH17 intercept of 6 meters at 15.0 g/t gold significantly exceeds the exceptional threshold of 5 g/t for open-pit gold deposits.

Evidence · table

> 15.0

Context: 6

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The continuous rock-chip channel sampling has extended the footprint of known gold mineralization at Ash Shajjah to more than 800 meters of strike, remaining open both to the north and the south.

Evidence · text

> Continuous rock-chip channel sampling has expanded on previous results ... and has now extended the footprint of known gold mineralization at Ash Shajjah to more than 800 meters of strike, remaining open both to the north and the south.

- Intercept: 8 m
- From: 3 m
- To: 11 m

#### Classification

- Sample Type: channel

#### Location

- Easting: 356747
- Northing: 2136881
- Elevation: 1227 m
- Azimuth: 90 °
- Loc. Confidence: high

#### QA/QC

- Laboratory: ALS Jeddah

#### Review

- Needs Review: No
- Interp. Status: scored
- Historical: No

#### Dates

- Event date: 2025-11-17T00:00:00.000Z

Reasoning: This intercept shows moderate gold grade over a moderate width, contributing to the overall understanding of the mineralization but not a standout result. The width is not true width.

- Negative factor: Apparent Width Only

- Needs Review: No
- Interp. Status: scored
- Historical: No

#### Dates

- Event date: 2025-11-17T00:00:00.000Z

Reasoning: This intercept shows exceptional gold grade over a moderate width, representing a bonanza intercept and a highly significant result for the project. The width is not true width.

- Positive factor: Bonanza Intercept

- Negative factor: Apparent Width Only

## 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.
