## Minestarters Atlas summary

C3 Metals has completed the first phase of drilling at its Khaleesi copper project in Peru, intersecting copper mineralization in all 12 holes drilled. The results demonstrate a large-scale skarn and porphyry system with significant intercepts, including 101.1m at 0.30% Cu in hole KHZ5825-001.

Reasoning: First phase of drilling at Khaleesi confirms a large-scale hydrothermal system with consistent copper mineralization across a wide footprint, though grades remain moderate and metallurgical certainty is low.

- Positive factor: Broad mineralization footprint \(1,000m x 500m\)

- Positive factor: Copper observed in all 12 completed holes

- Positive factor: Significant skarn and diorite hosted intercepts

- Positive factor: QA/QC protocols clearly disclosed with accredited lab

- Negative factor: Early-stage greenfield project with no metallurgical test work

- Negative factor: True widths not yet determined

- Negative factor: Grades are relatively low for a skarn system \(below 0.5% Cu\)

Facts used in scoring: 24

## 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 includes detailed QA/QC protocols, mentioning standards, blanks, duplicates, and an accredited lab \(ALS\).

Evidence · text

> C3 Metals adheres to a strict QA/QC protocol for handling, sampling, sample transportation and analyses.

**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 reported intervals are downhole core lengths and true thicknesses have yet to be determined.

Evidence · text

> All intervals reported in this table are down hole core lengths, and true thicknesses have yet to be determined.

**Metal Equivalent Opaque**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Metal equivalent grade reported without disclosing the price, recovery, or payability assumptions used. Requires an actual metal equivalent grade; a combined elemental basket such as PGE is not a metal equivalent.

Why it applies: CuEq reported using assumed 80% recoveries without actual metallurgical test work.

Evidence · text

> as Khaleesi is an early-stage greenfield project with no metallurgical test work completed, assuming different recoveries is premature at this stage.

## 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.
