# Sable Expands Cu-Au Footprint and Identifies New Copper and Gold Targets Ahead of Maiden Drill Program at the Zorro Project, San Juan, Argentina Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/sable-expands-cu-au-footprint-and-identifies-new-copper-and-gold-targets-ahead-o--11d258d1-76ff-4c86-a129-c1ff321fe05a Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/SAE/news/8728729205847462/sable-expands-cu-au-footprint-and-identifies-new-copper-and-gold-targets-ahead-o Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2026-07-06T11:00:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Sable Resources Ltd. - Ticker: SAE - Exchange: TSX - Region: San Juan, Argentina - Primary commodity: Gold - Secondary commodities: Copper, Silver, Zinc, Lead, Arsenic - Document categories: Drill results, Other - Extracted: 2026-09-12 22:40:21 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.60 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Sable Resources has completed a 1,719 sample soil geochemistry survey at the Zorro Project in Argentina, confirming and expanding the footprint of copper targets and identifying a new large gold anomaly named Zorro Gold. The survey also highlighted silver, zinc, and lead anomalies. A maiden diamond drill program is scheduled to commence in the second half of July to test these targets. Reasoning: The soil survey successfully expanded the footprint of known copper targets and identified a significant new gold anomaly with high-grade historical rock chip support, setting the stage for a maiden drill program. - Positive factor: Significant new gold anomaly \(Zorro Gold\) identified via soil survey - Positive factor: Expansion of existing copper targets \(Zorro Copper and Zorro North\) - Positive factor: High-grade rock chip intercepts \(up to 140 g/t Au\) in the new gold zone - Positive factor: Maiden drill program imminent to test multiple targets - Negative factor: Results are based on soil geochemistry and rock chips, not completed drill assays Facts used in scoring: 5 ## 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 sample preparation at ALS Minerals and the use of standards, blanks, and duplicates. Evidence · text > Control samples \(standards, blanks, and duplicates\) are inserted systematically **Nearology Play** Polarity: neutral Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results. Why it applies: The project is located directly north of Minsud/South32’s Chita Valley Project. Evidence · text > directly north of Minsud/South32’s Chita Valley Project ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 5.

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.
