# SLAM Reports 1.19% Copper Equivalent Over 24.6 Metres in Hole GW26-29 From the Goodwin Copper-Nickel-Cobalt Project Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/slam-reports-1-19-copper-equivalent-over-24-6-metres-in-hole-gw26-29-from-the-go--b931b976-2f36-4e6f-bbfe-de99bc8a8dec Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/SXL/news/5914921072812420/slam-reports-1-19-copper-equivalent-over-24-6-metres-in-hole-gw26-29-from-the-go Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2026-08-14T14:55:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: SLAM Exploration Ltd. - Ticker: SXL - Exchange: TSX - Region: New Brunswick - Primary commodity: Copper - Secondary commodities: Nickel, Cobalt - Document categories: Drill results, Other - Extracted: 2026-08-20 17:36:04 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.60 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary SLAM Exploration has reported new sulphide discoveries at the Goodwin project in New Brunswick, including a major extension 2,000m from the Logan zone. While the headline 1.19% CuEq intercept in hole GW26-29 is a restatement of prior results, the overall drilling campaign has successfully identified multiple new massive sulphide zones. Reasoning: The release reports significant new sulphide discoveries and extensions at the Goodwin project, though the headline intercept in GW26-29 is a restatement of previously reported data. - Positive factor: New sulphide discoveries on VTEM targets - Positive factor: Major extension of mineralization 2,000m from known zone - Positive factor: QA/QC protocols disclosed - Negative factor: Some results are historical restatements 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 certified reference standards and blanks were inserted at regular intervals. Evidence · text > Quality control samples, comprising certified reference standards and blanks, were inserted at regular intervals **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Hole GW26-29 is a 100 meter step-out along strike to the southeast of hole GW25-15. Evidence · text > hole GW26-29 is a 100 meter step-out along strike to the southeast of hole GW25-15 **Stale Data Re-release** Polarity: negative Definition: Historical results re-announced with no new assays or reinterpretation — low genuine novelty. Why it applies: The headline intercept in GW26-29 was previously reported in a June 17, 2026 news release. Evidence · text > previously reported in hole GW26-29 \(see news release dated June 17, 2026\) ## 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.
