## Minestarters Atlas summary

Electrum Discovery is advancing exploration at its Timok East \(copper-gold\) and Novo Tlamino \(gold-silver\) projects in Serbia. Key activities include a second-phase AMT survey at Timok East and a ground magnetic survey at Novo Tlamino, with infill drilling planned for Q1 2026 to upgrade the Barje deposit resource.

Reasoning: The document provides an operational update highlighting geophysical progress and upcoming drilling programs. While it restates a 2021 resource for Novo Tlamino, the news focuses on the intent to upgrade that resource and expand the exploration footprint.

- Positive factor: Expansion of Timok East exploration footprint via new Rgotna licence

- Positive factor: Ongoing geophysical surveys \(AMT and magnetics\) to refine targeting

- Positive factor: Planned infill and step-out drilling at Novo Tlamino to upgrade resource

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Speculative category — limited drilling, geological continuity assumed but not confirmed. Cannot support economic studies alone.

Why it applies: The Barje deposit contains an inferred resource of 7.1 Mt grading 2.5 g/t Au and 38 g/t Ag.

Evidence · text

> contains an inferred resource of 7.1 Mt grading 2.5 g/t Au and 38 g/t Ag

**Resource Update**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Revised estimate for an existing resource — compare to prior to assess progress.

Why it applies: The company is planning infill drilling to support a resource update at Novo Tlamino.

Evidence · text

> Planning is well advanced for infill drilling at the Barje to support a resource update

**NI 43-101 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with NI 43-101 \(Canada\) — high reporting standard.

Why it applies: The Novo Tlamino resource estimate was prepared under NI 43-101.

Evidence · text

> a mineral resource estimate 1 prepared under NI 43-101

## 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.
