## Minestarters Atlas summary

Westhaven Gold announced high-grade gold and silver drill results from its Shovelnose Gold Property in southern British Columbia, extending mineralization at depth and along the southeastern margin of the South Zone deposit. Key intercepts include 10.04 metres at 12.18 g/t gold and 103 g/t silver, and 37.34 metres at 6.24 g/t gold and 55 g/t silver. These results are part of an ongoing resource infill drilling program aimed at supporting a Pre-Feasibility Study targeting completion in H2 2027.

Reasoning: Westhaven Gold reported high-grade gold and silver intercepts from its infill and exploration drilling program at Shovelnose, including significant extensions of mineralization at depth and along strike, which are highly material for the project's underground potential and PFS. However, the lack of true width reporting, QA/QC disclosure, and cut-off grade information introduces some uncertainty.

Facts used in scoring: 28

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: Drill hole SNR26-117 returned 10.04 metres at 12.18 g/t gold, which is an exceptional grade for an underground epithermal deposit and results in an exceptional GT product of 122.28 g/t·m.

Evidence · text

> SNR26-117 is of particular importance as its 10-metre interval grading 12.18 g/t Au

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Drill hole SNR26-117 extended mineralization below the deepest proposed mining stopes, and SNR26-110 confirmed thick, high-grade mineralization at the southeastern edge of the deposit.

Evidence · text

> extended mineralization below the deepest proposed mining stopes in Westhaven’s 2025 preliminary economic assessment. Similarly, SNR26-110, returning 37.34 metres grading 6.24 g/t Au and 55 g/t Ag, has confirmed thick, high-grade mineralization at the southeastern edge of the deposit.

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery.

Why it applies: The results are from an 'ongoing 35,000-metre resource infill drilling program' designed to 'infill the deposit at nominal 25-metre centres'.

Evidence · text

> assay results from the ongoing 35,000-metre resource infill drilling program

**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 document explicitly states that 'Reported assay intervals represent downhole intersections, not true widths'.

Evidence · text

> Reported assay intervals represent downhole intersections, not true widths.

**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 release does not contain any explicit mention of QA/QC procedures, certified laboratories, or QP sign-off for the assay results.

Evidence · text

> Westhaven Gold Corp. \[TSXV: WHN ; OTCQB: WTHVF ; FRA: 1W5\] reported the fifth batch of assay results from the ongoing 35,000-metre resource infill drilling program

## 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.
