## Minestarters Atlas summary

Lion Copper Corp. has filed an NI 43-101 technical report for the Bear Deposit in Nevada. The report supports the maiden Mineral Resource Estimate previously announced in August 2026, which includes 1,064 Mt at 0.29% Cu \(Indicated\) and 1,770 Mt at 0.22% Cu \(Inferred\).

Reasoning: The document announces the filing of a technical report supporting a maiden MRE that was already announced on August 4, 2026, meaning the core data is not new.

- Positive factor: Maiden MRE technical report filed

- Positive factor: Large scale copper resource

- Negative factor: Stale data re-release \(supports previously announced MRE\)

- Negative factor: High proportion of Inferred resource

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**Maiden Resource**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: First formal MRE for the project — establishes baseline but typically exploration-stage with high Inferred component. No prior estimate exists, so every change band is not applicable.

Why it applies: The technical report supports the maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for the Bear Deposit.

Evidence · text

> supporting the maiden Mineral Resource Estimate \("MRE"\)

**NI 43-101 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with NI 43-101 \(Canada\) — high reporting standard.

Why it applies: The report was prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 standards.

Evidence · text

> prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101

**Stale Data Re-release**

Polarity: negative

Story-specific tag

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

Why it applies: The MRE was previously announced on August 4, 2026.

Evidence · text

> previously announced by the Company on August 4, 2026

**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: Qualified Persons Tim Maunula and Michael McGlynn are named as responsible for the report.

Evidence · table

> Mr. Tim Maunula

Context: Mr. Michael McGlynn

## 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.
