Additionally, the company has launched a 291 km2 gravity survey targeting a thole-copper anomaly. Reasoning: The announcement reports a notable copper intercept of 110.8m at 0.43% Cu and details the commencement of a large-scale gravity survey, indicating active exploration progress. - Positive factor: Significant copper intercept reported at Nak-Main - Positive factor: New gravity survey launched to expand exploration footprint Facts used in scoring: 2 ## Classification and evidence **Drill Results** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: No canonical definition is currently available. Why it applies: The announcement reports a current drill-hole intercept of 110.8m at 0.43% Cu. Evidence · text > 110.8m at 0.43% Cu at Nak-Main **Cut-off Undisclosed** Polarity: negative Definition: Reported composited assay intervals omit the cut-off grade used for those intervals. Apply only to actual reported assay intervals in the reviewed scope, not drilling plans or missing extraction fields alone. Why it applies: The source reports an assay interval but does not disclose any cut-off grade used for compositing. Evidence · text > 110.8m at 0.43% Cu at Nak-Main **Cut-off Undisclosed** Polarity: negative Definition: Reported composited assay intervals omit the cut-off grade used for those intervals. Apply only to actual reported assay intervals in the reviewed scope, not drilling plans or missing extraction fields alone. Why it applies: The reported composited assay interval omits the cut-off grade used for those intervals. Evidence · text > 110.8m at 0.43% Cu at Nak-Main **Apparent Width Only** Polarity: negative Definition: A reported assay interval gives downhole or apparent length without a disclosed true width. It describes geometric uncertainty, not a measured true thickness or proof that the interval is overstated; drill orientation alone is not a true-width measurement. Why it applies: The reported assay interval gives a downhole length \('110.8m'\) without a disclosed true width. Evidence · text > 110.8m at 0.43% Cu at Nak-Main **No QA/QC Disclosure** Polarity: negative Definition: Assays lack a certified lab, QA/QC methods and named relevant QP/CP responsibility in the full source. Named CP consent in scope counts; headings or old-release references alone do not. Correction approval does not verify unverified historical assays. Missing fields, partial text, plans or non-assay news prove no gap; never claim QA/QC was not performed. Why it applies: The source text does not disclose any information about certified labs, QA/QC methods, or named QP/CP responsibility for the reported assays.

Require a disclosed grade and compatible unit; the adjective high-grade alone, a metal-equivalent basket without assumptions, or a planned target does not establish this tag. **Metal Equivalent Opaque** — Rejected; excluded from scoring 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. **True Width Disclosed** — Rejected; excluded from scoring Polarity: positive Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length. **QA/QC Disclosed** — Rejected; excluded from scoring Polarity: positive Definition: Reported assays have a certified laboratory, actual QA/QC methods, or named QP/CP responsibility. Generic CP boilerplate, old-release references, plans and unrelated work are insufficient. Approval of a correction does not verify expressly unverified historical assays; assay accuracy is not guaranteed. **Compositing Transparent** — Rejected; excluded from scoring Polarity: positive Definition: Cut-off grade and internal dilution rules are clearly stated for reported intervals. **Step-Out Extension** — Rejected; excluded from scoring Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. **Infill Drilling** — Rejected; excluded from scoring Polarity: neutral Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery. **Stale Data Re-release** — Rejected; excluded from scoring Polarity: negative Definition: Results are re-announced unchanged, without new assays or substantive reinterpretation. A material correction, withdrawal or new qualification of their location, ownership or reliability is new information, even without new assays. Historical context in a current announcement does not make it stale. **Deleterious Elements Present** — Rejected; excluded from scoring Polarity: negative Definition: A source-stated penalty, refractory or recovery concern in the fact's scope. Element detection alone, including measured elements explicitly below penalty thresholds, does not trigger this tag. Respect negation and retain a separately stated concern even when another risk is explicitly absent. **Refractory Ore** — Rejected; excluded from scoring Polarity: negative Definition: Ore requires oxidation/pressure treatment before recovery — a processing and recovery risk. **Nearology Play** — Rejected; excluded from scoring Polarity: neutral Definition: The disclosed value premise relies on proximity to another known deposit rather than the issuer's own results. Mere location or along-strike wording in a release that reports its own drilling does not establish this premise. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 1.

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.
