## Minestarters Atlas summary

Hercules Metals announced significant drill results from its Leviathan porphyry copper system in Idaho, highlighted by hole HER-25-18 intersecting 670.44 metres grading 0.45% copper, 4.0 g/t silver, and 95 ppm molybdenum, representing the longest interval to date. This 200-metre step-out hole demonstrates strong continuity of mineralization and expands the known footprint of the system. The company also reported distal silver-lead-zinc mineralization from reconnaissance drilling, indicating further exploration potential.

Reasoning: Hercules Metals reported exceptional drill results from its Leviathan porphyry system, including the longest mineralized interval to date \(670.44 m of 0.45% Cu\) from a 200m step-out hole, demonstrating significant scale and continuity. The results are consistent with a porphyry model and supported by robust QA/QC, though true widths and metal equivalent assumptions are not disclosed.

- Positive factor: Longest interval to date

- Positive factor: Exceptional copper grade-width product \(301.7 %·m\)

- Positive factor: Strong copper grades for porphyry deposit type

- Positive factor: Significant step-out extension \(200m\)

- Positive factor: Demonstrates strong continuity of mineralization

- Positive factor: Consistent with evolving porphyry model

- Positive factor: QA/QC procedures disclosed

- Positive factor: Certified laboratory used

- Positive factor: Qualified Person sign-off

- Negative factor: True width not stated for intercepts

- Negative factor: Metal equivalent assumptions not disclosed

- Negative factor: Cut-off grade for compositing not disclosed

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

Facts used in scoring: 76

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: HER-25-18 was drilled as a 200 metre step-out to the southwest of previously reported hole HER-25-15 and now demonstrates strong continuity of copper mineralization.

Evidence · text

> HER-25-18 was drilled as a 200 metre step-out to the southwest of previously reported hole HER-25-15 and now demonstrates strong continuity of copper mineralization across the rapidly growing footprint of the Leviathan system.

**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 sample preparation, assay methods, and the insertion of blind certified reference materials \(CRMs\) and blank samples.

Evidence · text

> 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.

**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 are available to state the true thickness of the mineralized intervals.

Evidence · text

> The intervals reported represent drill intercepts and insufficient data are available at this time to state the true thickness of the mineralized intervals.

**Metal Equivalent Opaque**

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.

Why it applies: AgEq is reported in Table 2, but the underlying price, recovery, or payability assumptions are not disclosed.

Evidence · table

> AgEq \(g/t\)

Context: Ag \(g/t\)

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: The document does not state the cut-off grade used for compositing the reported high-grade intervals.

Evidence · text

> The intervals reported represent drill intercepts and insufficient data are 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: qaqc\_disclosed is true

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

**Metal Equivalent Opaque**

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.

Why it applies: an equivalent grade is reported without its assumptions

#### Metal Equivalent

- Metal Eq. Grade: 342.5
- Metal Eq. Unit: g/t Eq
- Assumptions Disclosed: No

#### Review

- Needs Review: No
- Interp. Status: scored
- Historical: No

#### Dates

- Event date: 2026-03-30T00:00:00.000Z

Reasoning: Expanded from assay table. 342 g/t silver is strong against the default band \[500, 200, 100, 30\] g/t. Grade×width 519.8 g/t·m is weak \(grade alone is strong; the better of the two is used\).

- Positive factor: 342 g/t silver is strong on the default band.

- Negative factor: Scored from rubric bands during table expansion, not from document context.

#### 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

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

**Metal Equivalent Opaque**

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.

Why it applies: an equivalent grade is reported without its assumptions

#### Dates

- Event date: 2026-03-30T00:00:00.000Z

Reasoning: Expanded from assay table. 0.02 % zinc is below against the default band \[18, 10, 5, 2\] %. Grade×width 0.0 %·m is below.

- Negative factor: 0.02 % zinc is below the weak threshold \(2 %\) on the default band.

- Negative factor: Scored from rubric bands during table expansion, not from document context.

## 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.
