## Minestarters Atlas summary

Western Star Resources has completed a geological mapping and sampling program at the Eagle Point Tungsten Project in New Mexico, identifying scheelite-bearing skarn. The company has now designed a planned 17-hole, 6,000-foot drill program to test the continuity and geometry of the skarn and move towards a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate.

Reasoning: The company has completed a mapping program that identified mineralization and has a clear, modeled drill program ready to follow, though actual assay results are not yet available.

- Positive factor: identification of scheelite-bearing skarn

- Positive factor: updated 3D geological model

- Positive factor: planned drill program to test continuity

- Negative factor: analytical results pending

- Negative factor: no independent field standards/blanks/duplicates inserted

- Negative factor: talus cover limits surface mapping accuracy

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: The project leverages historical tungsten mineralization context and surface showings to justify the new drill program.

Evidence · text

> Tungsten mineralization at Eagle Point has been recognized since the early 1940s.

**No QA/QC Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document.

Why it applies: The company explicitly stated that no independent field standards, blanks, or duplicates were inserted into the sample stream due to the early-stage nature of the program.

Evidence · text

> no independent field standards, blanks or duplicates were inserted into the sample stream.

#### Tags used in scoring

**No QA/QC Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document.

Why it applies: qaqc\_disclosed is not true

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

## How Atlas produces this analysis

Minestarters Atlas uses automated extraction to summarize mining announcements, identify reported measurements, and classify supporting evidence. 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.
