Seeing Through Promotional Noise
Over 1,500 junior miners are fighting for your capital. Less than 1% will make a real discovery.
Verify geometry before you trust the headline
ASX Compliance Update 08/24 specifically warned about investor presentations being used as "promotional, political or tendentious" material. Company slides show the best angle. Canetoad shows every angle — rotate, slice, and interrogate the full drill array linked to the source announcement. Test whether high-grade intercepts align on a defensible plane or scatter randomly.
Separate director specials from genuine step-out holes
A "director special" is industry slang for a hole drilled to generate a headline rather than test geology. Canetoad's spatial view makes the pattern obvious — you can see whether new drilling genuinely extends mineralisation or just cherry-picks the prettiest intersection. Cross-section tools test true width versus down-dip distortion, and the time slider shows if a company keeps returning to the same spot instead of advancing the campaign.
See mandatory data, not just promoted highlights
Canetoad ingests the complete mandatory drill table from every announcement — not just the intervals the company chose to highlight. Lower-grade halos, short intersections, and context holes that didn't make the press release are all plotted. You see what the company is required to disclose, not just what they want you to see.
"I use Canetoad to check if drill results are director specials or true step-out holes." It changed how quickly I can invalidate weak stories.
