The program confirmed historical wollastonite mineralization and identified new occurrences through trenching, channelling, and portable drilling. Reasoning: The 2022 Phase 1 program successfully confirmed historical wollastonite occurrences and identified new mineralized zones with significant grades in trench and portable drill samples. - Positive factor: Confirmation of historical mineralization - Positive factor: Discovery of new mineralized sites - Positive factor: Strong grades in trench and drill intercepts - Negative factor: Mineralization is non-homogeneous and intercalated with barren rock Facts used in scoring: 4 ## 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: The report mentions the technical information was reviewed and approved by a Qualified Person \(Jean-Paul Barrette, P.Geo\). Evidence · text > reviewed and approved by Jean-Paul Barrette Géo/ P.Geo **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: New wollastonite mineralized sites were found in addition to confirming historical ones. Evidence · text > new wollastonite mineralized sites were found both in the northern part and in other parts of the Menard property ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 4. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (4) ### TR03 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/vertical-provides-2022-exploration-program-summary-for-newly-acquired-quebec-wol--560f452a-d98a-4bc4-98cd-a61d6ddfa1f4#fact-drill-facts-0) Ménard-Péribonka · wollastonite #### Identity - Hole ID: TR03 - Project: Ménard-Péribonka - Commodity: wollastonite - Region: canada\_qc - Reported Region: Quebec - Ticker: VERT #### Geometry - Grade: 49.4 - Grade Unit: % - Intercept: 3.25 m #### Classification - Sample Type: channel - Group ID: TR03:0-3.25 #### Review - Needs Review: No - Interp.

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.
