## Minestarters Atlas summary

Kodiak Copper Corp. announced positive results from its 2025 regional exploration program at the MPD copper-gold porphyry project in southern British Columbia. The program, which included soil geochemical surveys and prospecting, confirmed numerous historic high-grade targets, identified new targets, and highlighted the potential to expand the Ketchan deposit's Mineral Resource Estimate. High-grade rock samples, including one assaying 11.4% Cu, 23.8 g/t Au, and 43.6 g/t Ag, were reported, with plans for follow-up drilling in 2026.

Reasoning: The 2025 regional exploration program at the MPD project successfully identified new high-grade targets and confirmed existing ones through soil geochemistry and prospecting, indicating significant potential for resource expansion, particularly at the Ketchan deposit. The high-grade rock samples are very encouraging, though they are surface samples and require drill testing.

- Positive factor: Identification of new high-grade targets

- Positive factor: Confirmation of historic high-grade targets

- Positive factor: Potential for resource expansion at Ketchan deposit

- Positive factor: High-grade rock samples reported

- Positive factor: Detailed QA/QC disclosure

- Negative factor: Results are from surface samples \(soil and rock\), not drill intercepts, requiring follow-up drilling for confirmation

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

Facts used in scoring: 38

## 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 details QA/QC procedures including the use of Activation Laboratories Ltd. \(Actlabs\), which is ISO/IEC 17025:2015 and ISO 9001:2015 accredited, and internal QA/QC program with blanks, duplicates, and certified reference materials.

Evidence · text

> All rock samples are picked up from Kodiak's field office in Merritt, BC by Activation Laboratories Ltd. \(Actlabs\) and delivered to their accredited laboratory in Kamloops, BC, for preparation and Fire Assay prior to being shipped to their Ancaster, Ontario Laboratory for Multi-element analysis. ... Actlabs meets all requirements of International Standards ISO/IEC 17025:2015 and ISO 9001:2015 for analytical procedures. In addition to Actlabs quality assurance-quality control \(QA/QC\) protocols, Kodiak implements an internal QA/QC program for samples that includes the insertion of sample blanks, duplicates, and certified reference materials, at a rate of one per ten samples.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The exploration program aims to expand the Mineral Resource Estimate at Ketchan and prioritize numerous untested targets, indicating a focus on extending mineralization beyond known limits.

Evidence · text

> highlights the potential to expand the recent Mineral Resource Estimate reported for the Ketchan deposit. ... In addition, we are prioritizing numerous untested targets that may represent the next discovery and intend to drill several of them in the upcoming campaign.

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: Sample 222381 assayed 11.4% Cu, 23.8 g/t Au, 43.6 g/t Ag, 7.31 g/t Pd, and 1.12 g/t Pt, which are exceptionally high grades for all reported metals in a surface sample.

Evidence · table

> 11.4

Context: 222381

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: The discovery of the Nebula target is highlighted by its proximity to the West deposit and similar geology, suggesting its value is partly derived from this association.

Evidence · text

> The best sample in the southern part of the property assayed 0.23% Cu and 1.56 g/t Au \(sample 222257\) from a new copper-gold-silver discovery named Nebula located approximately 500 metres north of the West deposit . The mineralization is associated with a monzodiorite/conglomerate unit similar to the geology seen at West.

## 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.
