## Minestarters Atlas summary

Altiplano Metals reported high-grade copper-gold-iron channel sample results from the Santa Beatriz project in Chile. The best intercept recorded was 2.45 m at 3.65% Cu, 0.29 g/t Au, and 26.97% Fe, including a high-grade 1.08 m sub-interval of 8.08% Cu.

Reasoning: Strong copper-gold-iron channel samples from the Santa Beatriz vein complex, including a high-grade 8.08% Cu sub-interval. Results are supported by QP sign-off.

- Positive factor: High grade copper intercept

- Positive factor: Bonanza grade sub-interval

- Positive factor: IOCG deposit type

- Positive factor: QA/QC Disclosed

Facts used in scoring: 6

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: The 1.08 m sub-interval yields 8.08% Cu, which is exceptional for an IOCG deposit.

Evidence · text

> 8.08 %Cu

**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: The release includes a sign-off by a Qualified Person \(John Williamson\).

Evidence · text

> John Williamson, B.Sc., P.Geol., a Qualified Person

## 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.
