## Minestarters Atlas summary

Hercules Metals announced significant 2025 drill results from its Leviathan porphyry copper system in Idaho, highlighted by 273 m of 0.60% copper and 1.8 g/t silver within a broader 379 m interval in hole HER-25-05. These new results, guided by a 3D exploration model, are building confidence in the continuity of mineralization and suggest potential for a large-scale open-pit target combining porphyry copper with near-surface silver. The company also re-stated historical 2022 silver-focused drill results and noted ongoing metallurgical test work for silver amenability.

Reasoning: Hercules Metals reports strong 2025 drill results from its Leviathan porphyry system, including long intercepts of high-grade copper and significant silver, driven by a new exploration model. The results demonstrate continuity and potential for a large-scale open-pit operation. While QA/QC is disclosed, the lack of true width information for intercepts is a minor drawback.

- Positive factor: Long intervals of high-grade copper mineralization

- Positive factor: Significant silver grades in historical and new intercepts

- Positive factor: New exploration model yielding positive results

- Positive factor: Systematic drilling strategy building continuity

- Positive factor: QA/QC procedures disclosed and QP signed off

- Positive factor: Potential for large-scale open-pit target encompassing multi-metal mineralization

- Negative factor: True width not stated for reported intercepts

- Negative factor: Assays pending for several holes, including a fence-completing hole

- Negative factor: Historical 2022 results include an interval below the stated cutoff grade

Facts used in scoring: 97

## Classification and evidence

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states that 'insufficient data is available at this time to state the true thickness of the mineralized intervals' for the 2025 drill results.

Evidence · text

> The intercepts reported in this table represent drilled intervals and insufficient data is available at this time to state the true thickness of the mineralized intervals.

**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: The release details the laboratory used \(MSA Labs\), its certifications \(ISO 17025 and ISO 9001\), and QA/QC methods including standards, duplicates, and blanks.

Evidence · text

> All drill core samples were prepped and analyzed at MSA Labs in Langley, British Columbia, an ISO 17025 and ISO 9001 certified laboratory. ... Blind certified reference materials \(CRMs\) and blank samples were systematically inserted by the Company into the sample stream and analyzed as part of the Company's quality assurance/quality control protocol.

**QP/CP Signed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

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: Dillon Hume, P.Geo. and Vice President, Exploration for the Company, is named as the 'Qualified Person' who reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information.

Evidence · text

> The scientific and technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved for disclosure by Dillon Hume, P.Geo. and Vice President, Exploration for the Company. Mr. Hume is a 'Qualified Person' for Hercules Metals within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects .

**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 'insufficient data is available at this time to state the true thickness of the mineralized intervals' for the reported intercepts.

Evidence · text

> The intercepts reported in this table represent drilled intervals and insufficient data is available at this time to state the true thickness of the mineralized intervals.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The drilling is described as 'building continuity' and 'delineating the full width of mineralization across both the Hanging Wall and Footwall zones' with a 'systematic, fence-based drilling strategy' at 200-metre spacing.

Evidence · text

> Building continuity - Drilling with a new exploration model this season is building continuity in both the Hanging Wall Zone \(this news release\) and Footwall Zone \(see Hercules news release dated September 17, 2025\), with a systematic grid-based approach that allows vectoring toward the highest-grade centre of each drill fence.

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: Hole HER-25-05 intersected 34.75 m of 1.01% Cu and 6.2 g/t Ag, which is exceptionally high-grade for a porphyry copper system.

Evidence · table

> 1.01

Context: 34.75

**Stale Data Re-release**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Historical results re-announced with no new assays or reinterpretation — low genuine novelty.

Why it applies: Table 2 presents 'Hercules Metals Reported 2022 Drilling Intercepts' which are explicitly stated as a 'confirmation drilling program in 2022, to validate the historical drilling grades reported by previous operators'.

Evidence · text

> Prior to the discovery of the Leviathan porphyry in late 2023, the Company conducted an initial 9-hole confirmation drilling program in 2022, to validate the historical drilling grades reported by previous operators \(Table 2\).

**Cut-off Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: Cut-off grade used for resource reporting is clearly stated, enabling like-for-like comparison.

Why it applies: The 2022 drilling intercepts are explicitly reported 'at 35 g/t Ag Cutoff'.

Evidence · text

> a 35 g/t Ag cutoff was applied when reporting intercepts from the 2022 drilling program.

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: The release discusses renewed interest in silver mineralization in cover rock due to strengthening silver prices, positioning it as a potential multi-metal system alongside the deeper porphyry.

Evidence · text

> With silver prices strengthening, we're now beginning to see an opportunity to view Hercules as a larger-scale open-pit target, encompassing both the porphyry copper system at depth and the near-surface silver mineralization in the overlying cover rock.

#### Tags used in scoring

**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: qaqc\_disclosed is true

**Stale Data Re-release**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Historical results re-announced with no new assays or reinterpretation — low genuine novelty.

Why it applies: the fact restates a prior release

## 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.
