## Minestarters Atlas summary

Xpedra Resources has confirmed depth extensions at its Springfield gold deposit in NSW through deep step-out drilling. The results include multiple high-grade intercepts and demonstrate continuity of mineralization from surface to at least 150m down-dip.

Reasoning: Deep drilling successfully extended the known depth of the Springfield gold deposit with several high-grade intercepts, demonstrating continuity and scale potential.

- Positive factor: depth extension confirmed

- Positive factor: high-grade intercepts

- Positive factor: continuity demonstrated

- Positive factor: step-out success

- Negative factor: arsenic anomalism noted

Facts used in scoring: 10

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The results confirm depth extensions and step-out drilling at Springfield.

Evidence · text

> Xpedra has confirmed depth extensions at its Springfield gold deposit

**Deleterious Elements Present**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Penalty elements \(arsenic, antimony, etc.\) or refractory concerns noted in the release.

Why it applies: The document mentions extensive gold and arsenic anomalism.

Evidence · text

> hosts extensive gold and arsenic anomalism
