The results include channel chip samples from the Steamboat Mine, in-house assays from stockpiles, and samples from the Columbia and Gold Queen mines. Reasoning: Significant high-grade gold and silver sampling results from multiple sites at the Columbia / Gold Queen Complex, supported by independent lab verification for Steamboat Mine samples. - Positive factor: High-grade gold intercepts reported \(up to 41.14 g/t\) - Positive factor: QA/QC disclosed with independent accredited lab \(Activation Laboratories\) - Positive factor: No deleterious elements found - Positive factor: Presence of native gold and ruby silver observed in field - Negative factor: Sampling is surface/channel based \(random nature cautioned\) - Negative factor: In-house assaying used for several samples \(lower transparency than third-party\) Facts used in scoring: 9 ## Classification and evidence **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 Activation Laboratories, an independent accredited ISO/IEC 17025 lab, and use of standards and blanks. Evidence · text > Activation Laboratories, an independent accredited lab... Certified standards and blanks were run **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: Gold grade of 41.14 g/t is exceptionally high. Evidence · table > 41.14 Context: 3cgd **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: In-house assay results for Steamboat Stockpile and Columbia/Gold Queen samples do not disclose specific QA/QC protocols used in the in-house facility. Evidence · text > assayed at SBMI's in-house lab fire assay facilities ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 9.

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.
