## Minestarters Atlas summary

Westhaven Gold Corp. reported final 2025 drilling results from the Shovelnose Gold Project in British Columbia. A key highlight is hole SN25-442, which returned a 70.79m intercept at 1.13 g/t Au and 14.1 g/t Ag, including a high-grade 8.05m zone.

Reasoning: The drill hole SN25-442 returned a high-grade gold sub-interval of 6.18 g/t Au and significant silver credits, contributing to a wide 70.79m mineralized intercept.

- Positive factor: strong gold grades in sub-interval

- Positive factor: significant width of mineralization

## 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.
