## Minestarters Atlas summary

Enduro Metals has completed its inaugural 2026 drill program at the Andrei copper-gold porphyry target in British Columbia. While geological observations indicate the presence of porphyry and low-sulphidation epithermal-style systems, all assay results are currently pending.

Reasoning: The program successfully identified multiple geological styles \(porphyry and epithermal\) consistent with the target, but the lack of actual assay grades prevents a high-confidence assessment of mineralization quality.

- Positive factor: Identification of porphyry and epithermal-style alteration/veining

- Positive factor: Geological observations suggest systems remain open

- Negative factor: Assay results are still pending

- Negative factor: Drilling productivity was reduced due to challenging conditions

- Negative factor: True widths are unknown

Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source.

Facts used in scoring: 3

## Classification and evidence

**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: The document explicitly states that true widths or dimensions are unknown for the reported intervals.

Evidence · text

> Intervals reported are core intervals and true widths or dimensions are unknown.

**No QA/QC Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document.

Why it applies: The release does not disclose specific QA/QC protocols or lab certification for the 2026 program assays, which are still pending.

Evidence · text

> All drill core assays are pending and are expected to be received later in the year.

## 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.
