The report includes a 2025 Mineral Resource Estimate of 9.28 Mt at 1.39 g/t Au and 0.97% Cu \(Indicated\) and 0.86 Mt at 1.06 g/t Au and 0.87% Cu \(Inferred\). Reasoning: The filing of a PEA technical report for a multi-commodity VMS project provides significant project de-risking and economic framework, though the results are based on a 2025 MRE. - Positive factor: Significant Indicated resource reported - Positive factor: VMS deposit type with depth potential - Positive factor: NI 43-101 compliant technical report filed - Negative factor: PEA is preliminary in nature - Negative factor: Inferred resources included in economic analysis Facts used in scoring: 10 ## Classification and evidence **NI 43-101 Compliant** Polarity: positive Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with NI 43-101 \(Canada\) — high reporting standard. Why it applies: The technical report was prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 standards. Evidence · text > prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 **QP/CP Signed** Polarity: positive Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience. Why it applies: Multiple independent Qualified Persons are named as responsible for various sections of the report. Evidence · text > reviewed and verified by the following independent Qualified Persons **Inferred Resource** Polarity: negative Definition: Speculative category — limited drilling, geological continuity assumed but not confirmed. Cannot support economic studies alone. Why it applies: The resource estimate includes an Inferred category which is speculative. Evidence · text > includes Inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 10. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Resource Estimates (10) ### indicated [Link to this fact](https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/arizona-metals-announces-filing-of-the-ni-43-101-technical-report-for-the-kay-mi--a63900fd-8da7-4f50-a89d-eb1c93d3cafb#fact-resource-facts-0) Kay Mine Project · gold #### Identity - Project: Kay Mine Project - Commodity: gold - Region: usa\_az - Reported Region: Arizona, USA - Ticker: AMC #### Resource scope - Estimate type: resource - Reporting standards: ni\_43\_101 - QP Signed: Yes - Qualified person names: Allan Armitage, Ben Eggers - Resource group id: resource:3d57b7b0790235208ed1 - Deposit or zone: Kay Mine Project - Mining method: combined - Ownership percent: 100 % - Resource basis: gross #### Resource Data - Category: indicated - Tonnes: 9280000 - Grade: 1.39 - Grade Unit: g/t - Cutoff Grade: 1 - Cutoff Unit: % CuEq #### Prior Estimate - Resource Date: 2025-06-17 #### Metal Equivalent - Assumptions Disclosed: Yes #### Lab - Laboratory: ALS #### Review - Needs Review: No - Historical: No #### Dates - Event date: 2026-06-12T00:00:00.000Z Reasoning: Solid indicated gold grade for a VMS deposit. - Positive factor: Indicated category provides higher geological confidence Evidence · text > 9.28 million tonnes grading 1.39 g/t Au #### Tags used in scoring **Indicated Resource** Polarity: positive Definition: Reasonable geological confidence based on adequate drilling; continuity can be assumed.

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.
