# Almadex Acquires Red Antler Silver-Gold Epithermal Vein Project by Staking, Surface Sampling returns 24 g/t Silver Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/almadex-acquires-red-antler-silver-gold-epithermal-vein-project-by-staking-surfa--bf78b1d8-f2dd-4582-9cd6-0ee04c09638b Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/DEX/news/5746595725058528/almadex-acquires-red-antler-silver-gold-epithermal-vein-project-by-staking-surfa Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2025-08-05T21:12:43.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Almadex Minerals Ltd. - Ticker: DEX - Exchange: TSX - Region: Utah - Primary commodity: Silver - Secondary commodities: Gold - Document categories: Metallurgy, Agreement transaction, Drill results - Extracted: 2026-09-15 19:16:36 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.60 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Almadex Minerals Ltd. has acquired a 100% interest in the Red Antler silver-gold epithermal vein project in western Utah through staking. Preliminary surface grab sampling returned silver grades up to 24 g/t, with 12 of 34 samples exceeding 1 g/t silver. Reasoning: The company acquired a new project and reported encouraging, albeit preliminary, surface sampling results that indicate a preserved epithermal system. - Positive factor: Acquisition of 100% interest in Red Antler project - Positive factor: Encouraging surface sampling results \(up to 24 g/t Ag\) - Positive factor: Identification of epithermal vein system with high preservation - Positive factor: Presence of anomalous gold and epithermal suite elements - Negative factor: Results are based on preliminary grab samples which may not represent true mineralization - Negative factor: Early-stage project with only very preliminary work performed Facts used in scoring: 3 ## Classification and evidence **QA/QC Disclosed** Polarity: positive Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\). Why it applies: Release mentions ALS Chemex Laboratories and QP sign-off by Morgan J Poliquin. Evidence · text > The analyses reported were carried out at ALS Chemex Laboratories **Nearology Play** Polarity: neutral Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results. Why it applies: The project was identified as part of an ongoing regional exploration program. Evidence · text > identified as part of Almadex’s ongoing regional exploration program **Multi-Domain Tested** Polarity: positive Definition: Variability across ore domains \(oxide, transition, fresh\) has been addressed. Why it applies: 2 distinct composites were tested ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 3. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Metallurgical Results (3) ### Fact 1 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/almadex-acquires-red-antler-silver-gold-epithermal-vein-project-by-staking-surfa--bf78b1d8-f2dd-4582-9cd6-0ee04c09638b#fact-metallurgical-facts-0) Red Antler · silver #### Identity - Project: Red Antler - Commodity: silver - Region: usa\_ut - Reported Region: Utah - Ticker: DEX #### Test Work - Sample: grab rock samples from outcrop and float #### Lab - Laboratory: ALS Chemex Laboratories #### Review - Needs Review: No - Historical: No #### Dates - Event date: 2025-08-05T00:00:00.000Z Reasoning: 24 g/t silver is a strong intercept for preliminary surface grab sampling in an epithermal setting. - Positive factor: High grade for surface grab sampling - Negative factor: Grab samples are selected and may not represent true underlying mineralisation Evidence · text > up to 24 g/t silver ### Fact 2 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/almadex-acquires-red-antler-silver-gold-epithermal-vein-project-by-staking-surfa--bf78b1d8-f2dd-4582-9cd6-0ee04c09638b#fact-metallurgical-facts-1) Red Antler · silver #### Identity - Project: Red Antler - Commodity: silver - Region: usa\_ut - Reported Region: Utah - Ticker: DEX #### Test Work - Sample: 34 grab rock samples from outcrop and float #### Lab - Laboratory: ALS Chemex Laboratories #### Review - Needs Review: No - Historical: No #### Dates - Event date: 2025-08-05T00:00:00.000Z Reasoning: The average grade of 1.4 g/t silver across 34 samples shows widespread but low-grade silver presence. - Positive factor: Average grade above 1 g/t silver for the sample set - Negative factor: Low average grade across the total sample set Evidence · text > averaging 1.4 g/t silver for all 34 ### Fact 3 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/almadex-acquires-red-antler-silver-gold-epithermal-vein-project-by-staking-surfa--bf78b1d8-f2dd-4582-9cd6-0ee04c09638b#fact-metallurgical-facts-2) Red Antler · gold #### Identity - Project: Red Antler - Commodity: gold - Region: usa\_ut - Reported Region: Utah - Ticker: DEX #### Test Work - Sample: grab rock samples from outcrop and float #### Lab - Laboratory: ALS Chemex Laboratories #### Review - Needs Review: No - Historical: No #### Dates - Event date: 2025-08-05T00:00:00.000Z Reasoning: Gold is mentioned as anomalous but lacks specific numeric values for assessment. - Positive factor: Presence of gold supports epithermal model - Negative factor: No specific gold grades reported Evidence · text > Anomalous gold values were also returned ## 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.
