## Minestarters Atlas summary

NorthWest Copper Corp. reported high-grade drill results from the Kwanika project in British Columbia, highlighted by a 43m intercept of 1.83% Cu and 1.28 g/t Au. The results include a significant 123m near-surface copper intercept and confirm continuity within the Central Zone.

Reasoning: The results feature high-grade intercepts that exceed the project's historical averages and expand the thickness of known zones, specifically in the Central Zone.

- Positive factor: High-grade copper-gold intercept \(1.83% Cu, 1.28 g/t Au\)

- Positive factor: Significant near-surface width \(123m at 1.31% Cu\)

- Positive factor: Successful infill of Central Zone gap

- Positive factor: True width disclosed for key intercepts

Facts used in scoring: 28

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The 43m intercept at 3.01% CuEq is exceptionally high-grade for this copper-gold system.

Evidence · text

> 43 Metres Grading 1.83 % Cu, 1.28 G/T Au \(3.01% CuEq\)

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The release provides estimated true widths for the primary intercepts.

Evidence · text

> estimated true width of 61 metres

**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 lab accreditation \(ISO 17025\), QA/QC methods \(blanks, standards\), and QP sign-off.

Evidence · text

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

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: Hole K-25-283 is described as successfully filling a gap in the Central Zone.

Evidence · text

> Hole K-25-283 successfully filled a gap in the Central Zone

#### Dates

- Event date: 2025-12-18T00:00:00.000Z

Reasoning: Expanded from assay table. 0.38 g/t gold is weak against the open\_pit mining band \[5, 2, 1, 0.3\] g/t. Grade×width 5.1 g/t·m is below \(grade alone is weak; the better of the two is used\).

- 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.
