## Minestarters Atlas summary

Hot Chili Limited announced further positive drill results from its La Verde copper-gold porphyry discovery in Chile, with diamond drill hole DKD044 returning a significant intercept of 391.3 m grading 0.50% CuEq from surface. These results, along with other strong intercepts in DKD042 and DKP041, confirm the continuity of shallow, high-grade mineralization and extend the high-grade core, underpinning a growing high-grade starter pit opportunity. The company also noted that assay results are pending for several key holes, with an additional ISO-accredited laboratory engaged to accelerate turnaround times.

Reasoning: Hot Chili reported strong drill results from its La Verde copper-gold porphyry discovery, highlighted by a very wide and well-graded intercept of 391.3 m at 0.50% CuEq from surface in hole DKD044, confirming continuity and extending mineralization, which supports the potential for a high-grade starter pit.

- Positive factor: Exceptional width and strong grade in DKD044 \(391.3 m @ 0.50% CuEq\) from surface for a porphyry deposit.

- Positive factor: Confirmation of shallow, high-grade copper-gold mineralization continuity.

- Positive factor: Extension of the high-grade core confirmed by DKD042 \(125 m further west\).

- Positive factor: Potential for a significant high-grade starter pit opportunity.

- Positive factor: Metal equivalent assumptions \(prices, recoveries\) are fully disclosed.

- Positive factor: QA/QC procedures are disclosed, including ISO-accredited labs and QP/CP sign-off.

- Positive factor: Compositing parameters \(cut-off grade and internal dilution rules\) are transparently stated.

- Negative factor: Assay results are pending for significant portions of key holes \(DKD044 end-of-hole, DKD049\), introducing some uncertainty.

- Negative factor: True width of intercepts is not disclosed, meaning reported lengths are apparent downhole widths.

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

Facts used in scoring: 21

## Classification and evidence

**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 mentions engagement of an 'ISO-accredited laboratory', states that results will be reported in accordance with 'JORC Code \(2012\) and National Instrument 43-101', and names 'Mr. Christian Easterday, MAIG' as a qualified and competent person.

Evidence · text

> Second ISO-accredited laboratory engaged to assist in accelerating assay result turnaround times ... Assay results are pending and will be reported in accordance with the JORC Code \(2012\) and National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. ... Mr. Christian Easterday, MAIG, Hot Chili's Managing Director and a qualified person within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101

**Compositing Transparent**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Cut-off grade and internal dilution rules are clearly stated for reported intervals.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states the cut-off grade of 0.20% Cu and notes that reported intersections may include internal dilution, including zones exceeding 30 m downhole width, where the overall weighted average grade remains above the cut-off.

Evidence · text

> Significant intercepts for La Verde are reported above a nominal cut-off grade of 0.20% Cu. Reported intersections may include internal dilution \(intervals below 0.20% Cu\), including zones exceeding 30 m downhole width, where the overall weighted average grade of the intersection remains above the cut-off grade.

**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 drill results table reports 'Interval \(m\)' which refers to downhole length, and the document does not provide any true width estimates or drill orientation relative to mineralization.

Evidence · table

> Interval \(m\)

Context: Intersection To

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Diamond drill hole DKD042 'has confirmed extension of the high-grade core 125 m further west', indicating mineralization has been extended beyond previously known limits.

Evidence · text

> Diamond drill hole DKD042 \(Figure 4\), collared on the western flank of the deposit, has confirmed extension of the high-grade core 125 m further west

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery.

Why it applies: Reverse Circulation drill hole DKP041 is explicitly described as an 'infill hole' in the document.

Evidence · text

> Reverse Circulation drill hole DKP041, an infill hole, has confirmed expansion and continuity of mineralisation across this zone

## 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.
