## Minestarters Atlas summary

NorthWest Copper Corp. reported a significant high-grade intercept of 36.0 metres at 0.80% Cu and 3.21 g/t Au \(3.67% CuEq\) from hole K-25-280 at the Kwanika project. The results confirm high-grade zonation in the Central Zone and support potential for both open pit and underground mining.

Reasoning: The announcement reports a standout high-grade copper-gold intercept that exceeds the company's target model and previous economic studies, providing significant exploration upside.

- Positive factor: Exceptional high-grade intercept of 3.67% CuEq

- Positive factor: Significant width of 36m in the Central Zone

- Positive factor: Confirmed continuity and metal zonation

- Positive factor: Results exceed 2023 PEA grade expectations

Facts used in scoring: 24

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: 3.67% CuEq intercept is exceptionally high for the target copper-gold system.

Evidence · text

> exceptional intercept of 36 metres grading 0.80 % Cu, 3.21 g/t Au \(3.67% copper equivalent 1 , “CuEq”\)

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The company provides estimated true widths for all reported intervals.

Evidence · table

> 31.2

Context: 36.0

**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: Release details lab \(Actlabs\), accreditation \(ISO 17025\), and methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).

Evidence · text

> The laboratory’s internal quality control system complies with global certifications for quality ISO 17025.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The hole advanced understanding and expanded the area of high-grade mineralization.

Evidence · text

> expanding the area of high-grade copper-gold mineralization within the core of the system

#### Dates

- Event date: 2025-11-12T00:00:00.000Z

Reasoning: Expanded from assay table. 0.58 g/t gold is below against the underground mining band \[15, 7, 4, 2.5\] g/t. Grade×width 7.0 g/t·m is below.

- Negative factor: 0.58 g/t gold is below the weak threshold \(2.5 g/t\) on the underground mining 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.
