# Solitario Resources Intersects 11.55 and 2.45 g/t Gold in Two Important New Styles of Gold Mineralization at Golden Crest Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/solitario-resources-intersects-11-55-and-2-45-g-t-gold-in-two-important-new-styl--fbb09cfb-7772-4b33-b595-d66924f25b3f Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/SLR/news/7112758711344944/solitario-resources-intersects-11-55-and-2-45-g-t-gold-in-two-important-new-styl Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2025-02-06T13:30:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Solitario Resources Corp. - Ticker: SLR - Exchange: TSX - Region: South Dakota - Primary commodity: Gold - Secondary commodities: None reported - Document categories: Drill results - Extracted: 2026-08-24 11:02:01 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.80 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Solitario Resources has intersected two new styles of gold mineralization at the Golden Crest Project in South Dakota. Drill hole GC-010 returned a high-grade 0.52m paleo-placer intercept of 11.33 g/t gold and a 0.43m diatreme breccia intercept of 2.45 g/t gold, alongside the intersection of the Homestake Banded Iron Formation. Reasoning: The discovery of a new mineralization style \(paleo-placer\) and the intersection of the Homestake BIF represent significant geological breakthroughs for the project, providing a new vector for exploration. - Positive factor: Discovery of new mineralization style \(paleo-placer\) - Positive factor: High-grade intercept \(11.33 g/t Au\) - Positive factor: Intersection of Homestake BIF - Positive factor: Vectoring potential towards Homestake-style targets - Negative factor: True width not estimated for the high-grade interval Facts used in scoring: 2 ## Classification and evidence **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: 11.33 g/t gold is a high-grade intercept for this project type. Evidence · text > 11.33 grams per tonne \("g/t"\) gold **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 insertion of duplicate, blank and standard samples and use of an independent lab. Evidence · text > insertion of duplicate, blank and standard samples in the assay stream **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 high-grade interval does not report a true width. Evidence · text > True thickness cannot be estimated based on this single drill hole ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 2.

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.
