Key intercepts include 121.5 metres at 0.376 g/t Au in hole TM26-205 and a 589.0 metre continuous mineralization interval in TM26-213. The results suggest potential to expand the existing mineral resource beyond the current optimized pit shell. Reasoning: Drill results from the Bench Target demonstrate significant step-out mineralization 200m east of the current resource pit limit, with grades exceeding the MRE cut-off. The results are high-confidence due to explicit QA/QC disclosure and correlation with the existing resource model. - Positive factor: Step-Out Extension - Positive factor: QA/QC Disclosed - Positive factor: Significant new mineralization east of current resource pit limit - 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: TM26-205 identified mineralization 200m east of the current resource pit limit. Evidence · text > TM26-205 \(121.5 metres averaging 0.376 g/t Au\). This mineralization lies 200 metres east of the 2026 MRE resource pit limit **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 details laboratory \(Activation and AGAT\), certification \(ISO/IEC 17025\), and methods \(standards, blanks, duplicates\). Evidence · text > Activation Laboratories Ltd., Thunder Bay, Ontario, ISO/IEC 17025:2017 is the primary independent analytical service provider. **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: TM26-213 was drilled sub-parallel to the interpreted contact, meaning the 589m interval is an apparent downhole width. Evidence · text > Holes TM26-209 and TM26-213 were drilled sub-parallel to the interpreted TMIC contact. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 5.
