This permit expansion, along with an approved reclamation bond, allows the company to proceed with follow-up drilling targeting the porphyry-skarn system. Reasoning: The approval of the NOI permit expansion is a key de-risking milestone that enables immediate follow-up drilling at the New Boston project. - Positive factor: Permit expansion approved by BLM - Positive factor: Doubled number of permitted drill sites from 8 to 16 - Positive factor: Existing road access for virtually all permitted sites - Positive factor: Strong historical drill results \(NB26-003\) support follow-up Facts used in scoring: 2 ## 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 document references QAQC protocols for geochemical sampling of drill core for the New Boston project. Evidence · text > overview of QAQC protocols for geochemical sampling of drill core **QP/CP Signed** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience. Why it applies: Dr. Michael Gunning, P.Geo., is named as the Qualified Person who reviewed and approved the technical information. Evidence · text > reviewed and approved on behalf of the Company by the President & CEO, Dr. Michael Gunning, PhD, P.Geo., a non- independent Qualified Person. ## 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.
