The new estimate, effective September 11, 2026, reports 3.57 Mt of Indicated Resources and 5.16 Mt of Inferred Resources. Notably, Inferred tonnage increased by 169% from the 2022 estimate, with contained silver, gold, and zinc also showing substantial growth. The estimate is compliant with NI 43-101 and includes detailed assumptions for metal equivalents and a C$122/t NSR cut-off for underground mining. Reasoning: Equity Metals announced a significant update to its Silver Queen Project's Mineral Resource Estimate, showing substantial growth in Inferred tonnage and contained metals, particularly gold, silver, and zinc. The estimate is NI 43-101 compliant with transparent assumptions, though a large portion remains in the Inferred category. - Positive factor: Significant increase in Inferred Mineral Resources \(169% tonnage growth\) - Positive factor: Substantial growth in contained silver \(+68%\), gold \(+132%\), and zinc \(+124%\) for Inferred resources - Positive factor: NI 43-101 compliant and signed off by independent Qualified Persons - Positive factor: Detailed disclosure of cut-off grade and metal equivalent assumptions - Negative factor: High proportion of Inferred resources \(59% by tonnage\) which carries lower geological confidence - Negative factor: Some individual metal grades are below strong/exceptional tiers for an underground epithermal deposit Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source. Facts used in scoring: 49 ## Classification and evidence **Cut-off Disclosed** Polarity: positive Definition: Cut-off grade used for resource reporting is clearly stated, enabling like-for-like comparison.

Unit: g/t AuEq - Assumptions Disclosed: Yes #### Review - Needs Review: No - Historical: No #### Dates - Event date: 2026-09-16T00:00:00.000Z Reasoning: This fact presents the total Inferred gold equivalent resource, showing significant tonnage growth from the prior estimate and a moderate AuEq grade within a lower confidence category. - Positive factor: Significant tonnage growth \(+169%\) compared to prior estimate - Positive factor: NI 43-101 compliant and QP signed - Positive factor: Gold equivalent grade is moderate for underground epithermal deposits - Negative factor: Inferred resource category carries lower confidence Evidence · table > 3.2 Context: 5,157 #### Tags used in scoring **Inferred Resource** Polarity: negative Definition: Speculative category — limited drilling, geological continuity assumed but not confirmed. Cannot support economic studies alone. Why it applies: category is "inferred" **Cut-off Disclosed** Polarity: positive Definition: Cut-off grade used for resource reporting is clearly stated, enabling like-for-like comparison. Why it applies: cutoff\_grade is stated **QP/CP Signed** Polarity: positive Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience. Why it applies: qp\_signed is true **NI 43-101 Compliant** Polarity: positive Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with NI 43-101 \(Canada\) — high reporting standard. Why it applies: reporting\_standards includes ni\_43\_101 **Tonnage Growth** Polarity: positive Definition: Tonnage increase reaching the strong tier vs prior estimate, with grade maintained or improved. Why it applies: 5157000 against 1920000 previously **Resource Update** Polarity: neutral Definition: Revised estimate for an existing resource — compare to prior to assess progress. Why it applies: the release compares against a previous estimate **PFS-Supporting** Polarity: neutral Definition: Resource estimate prepared to support a Pre-Feasibility Study — requires adequate M&I component. Why it applies: the release names the study this estimate supports ## 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.
