Saw-cut channel sampling returned 51 metres at 1.12 g/t gold, with a true width of approximately 49 metres, targeting a vein system that appears to connect to a previous deep drill intersection. Reasoning: Promising surface channel sampling results showing significant width and grade, with structural evidence suggesting continuity to a known depth intersection. - Positive factor: broad gold-bearing vein system exposed at surface - Positive factor: true width disclosed - Positive factor: continuity indicated by previous drill intersection Facts used in scoring: 4 ## Classification and evidence **True Width Disclosed** Polarity: positive Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length. Why it applies: The document explicitly states an estimated true thickness of about 49 meters. Evidence · text > the estimated true thickness is about 49 meters **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 disclose assay protocols, lab certification, or QP sign-off for the surface sampling. Evidence · text > New surface sampling at its El Alemán prospect in Colombia returned 51 meters grading 1.12 grams per tonne gold ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 4.

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.
