# Pacific Ridge Announces Filing of NI 43-101 Technical Report for Kliyul Copper-Gold Project Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/pacific-ridge-announces-filing-of-ni-43-101-technical-report-for-kliyul-copper-g--c907a39b-d9fd-4aac-a362-ff553a9d82aa Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/PEX/news/5644457001254367/pacific-ridge-announces-filing-of-ni-43-101-technical-report-for-kliyul-copper-g Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2025-09-18T20:31:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Pacific Ridge Exploration Ltd. - Ticker: PEX - Exchange: TSX - Region: British Columbia - Primary commodity: Copper - Secondary commodities: Gold, Silver - Document categories: Resource update - Extracted: 2026-09-12 19:05:42 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.40 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Pacific Ridge Exploration Ltd. has filed an NI 43-101 technical report for the Kliyul copper-gold project, announcing a maiden Inferred Mineral Resource for the Kliyul Main Zone \(KMZ\). The resource comprises 334.1 Mt at 0.33% CuEq, containing 1.11 billion pounds of copper and 2.74 million ounces of gold. The project is a 6-km long porphyry trend in Northcentral British Columbia. Reasoning: The filing of a maiden NI 43-101 technical report for a large-scale copper-gold porphyry project is a major milestone, though the resource is entirely in the speculative Inferred category and lacks site-specific metallurgical validation. - Positive factor: Maiden resource established - Positive factor: Large scale porphyry-style tonnage - Positive factor: Mineralization remains open in multiple directions - Negative factor: 100% Inferred category - Negative factor: No metallurgical testing performed to date - Negative factor: Recoveries are estimated based on peer projects Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source. Facts used in scoring: 4 ## 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 report supports the initial mineral resource estimate for the Kliyul Main Zone. Evidence · text > in support of the initial mineral resource estimate \("MRE"\) **Inferred Resource** Polarity: negative Definition: Speculative category — limited drilling, geological continuity assumed but not confirmed. Cannot support economic studies alone. Why it applies: The entire reported resource for KMZ is in the Inferred category. Evidence · text > in the Inferred Mineral Resource category **NI 43-101 Compliant** Polarity: positive Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with NI 43-101 \(Canada\) — high reporting standard. Why it applies: The technical report was prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 standards. Evidence · text > prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 **No QA/QC Disclosure** Polarity: negative Story-specific tag Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document. Why it applies: While the QP reviewed the database, specific assay QA/QC protocols \(blanks, standards, etc.\) are not detailed in this summary release. Evidence · text > LGGC completed an audit of the project drill hole database ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 4.

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.
