This intercept demonstrates the extension of the mineralized porphyry system to the west of the existing mineral resource. Reasoning: Scout drilling successfully intersected a wide, mineralized porphyry interval 100m west of the existing resource, demonstrating significant exploration potential and footprint extension. - Positive factor: Step-Out Extension - Positive factor: continuity of the porphyry complex to the west - Positive factor: wide interval of porphyry mineralization Facts used in scoring: 3 ## Classification and evidence **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: The intercept lies 100m below and to the west of the previously estimated mineral resource. Evidence · text > This intercept lies 100m below and to the west of the previously estimated mineral resource **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 SGS Geosol laboratory, use of blanks, standards, and duplicates. Evidence · text > comprising field duplicates, independent reference samples and "blank" samples. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 3.

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.
