## Minestarters Atlas summary

Arras Minerals reported significant drill results from the Elemes Project in Kazakhstan, highlighted by a 246.2m intercept at 1.02% CuEq in hole EL25023 at the Berezski North target. The results extend the mineralized footprint and suggest continuity with previous drilling, while hole EL25022 identified a new near-surface gold zone at Berezski East.

Reasoning: Strong drill results at Berezski North \(EL25023\) show high-grade copper-gold mineralization extending the known footprint, alongside discovery of a new zone at Berezski East.

- Positive factor: High-grade CuEq intercept of 1.02% in EL25023

- Positive factor: Extension of mineralization at Berezski North target

- Positive factor: Discovery of a new gold zone at Berezski East

- Positive factor: Confirmation of continuity between existing holes

- Negative factor: Mechanical issues halted EL25021 before reaching target zone

Facts used in scoring: 26

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Hole EL25023 extends the high-grade zones identified in EL24005 and EL25016.

Evidence · text

> intersected very nice zones of copper-gold mineralization extending the footprint of the Berezski North mineralized envelope

**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 details QA/QC protocols including standards, blanks, and field duplicates, and names an accredited lab.

Evidence · text

> Arras Minerals QA/QC protocols are maintained through the insertion of certified reference material \(standards\), blanks and field duplicates

**Apparent Width Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness.

Why it applies: All intervals are reported as core lengths and true thicknesses are unknown.

Evidence · text

> All drill-hole intervals are reported as drill widths, as true thicknesses are unknown.

#### Dates

- Event date: 2026-01-13T00:00:00.000Z

Reasoning: Expanded from assay table. 3.2 g/t silver is below against the default band \[500, 200, 100, 30\] g/t. Grade×width 192.0 g/t·m is below.

- Negative factor: 3.2 g/t silver is below the weak threshold \(30 g/t\) on the default band.

- Negative factor: Scored from rubric bands during table expansion, not from document context.

#### Tags used in scoring

**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: qaqc\_disclosed is true

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

copper-gold porphyry · molybdenum

#### Identity

- Hole ID: and
- Project: copper-gold porphyry
- Commodity: molybdenum
- Region: kazakhstan
- Reported Region: kazakhstan
- Ticker: ARK

#### Geometry

- Grade: 22.6
- Grade Unit: ppm
- Intercept: 60 m

#### Classification

- Deposit Type: porphyry
- Sample Type: drill
- Mining Method: open\_pit

#### Location

- Location: East Zone
- Loc. Source: document

#### QA/QC

- Laboratory: ALS
- QA/QC Disclosed: Yes

#### Review

- Needs Review: No
- Interp. Status: scored
- Historical: No

#### Dates

- Event date: 2026-01-13T00:00:00.000Z

Reasoning: Expanded from assay table: 22.6 ppm molybdenum. No grade band defined for this commodity, so the score is a placeholder.

- Negative factor: No grade rubric for molybdenum; intercept not scored.

## 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.
