## Minestarters Atlas summary

Scandium Canada has reported significant drill results from its Crater Lake project in Québec, with hole CL-26095 intercepting 150.1 m at 292 ppm Sc2O3. This discovery marks a northern extension of the existing resource, potentially expanding the mineralized footprint by approximately 335 metres.

Reasoning: The hole CL-26095 represents a significant step-out extension of the known resource to the north, with high-grade scandium oxide intercepts that confirm mineralization continuity beyond the 2025 MRE.

- Positive factor: Step-Out Extension

- Positive factor: Significant intercept width

- Positive factor: High-grade sub-interval

- Positive factor: QA/QC Disclosed

- Negative factor: Apparent Width Only

Facts used in scoring: 5

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The mineralization was found 150m north, outside the current TG deposit resource limit.

Evidence · text

> The mineralization it intersected lies 150m north, outside the current TG deposit resource.

**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 the use of certified reference materials, duplicates, and blanks, and names the laboratory.

Evidence · text

> including the insertion of certified reference materials \(standards\), duplicates and blanks

**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 that the reported downhole length is not a calculated true thickness.

Evidence · text

> Downhole drill core length represents a reported down hole drill significant intercept and not a calculated true thickness interval

## 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.
