The DDRCCC-26-128 hole returned a massive 348m intercept of 1.12 g/t gold, featuring several high-grade sub-intervals including 2.0m at 15.35 g/t gold. Reasoning: Significant step-out drilling at Blackjack deposit returned a very long 348m intercept and multiple high-grade sub-intervals, including bonanza-grade 15.35 g/t Au. - Positive factor: broad high-grade intervals - Positive factor: step-out drilling success - Positive factor: bonanza grade intercepts 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 release states results are from step out drilling at the Blackjack deposit. Evidence · text > in step out drilling at the Blackjack deposit **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: Intercepts of 15.35 g/t and 13.65 g/t gold are exceptionally high grade. Evidence · text > 2.0 m of 15.35 g/t Au ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 5.

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.
