## Minestarters Atlas summary

Savannah reported further drill results from its Block 4 and Block 5 drilling programme in Oman, including broad copper-gold intercepts at Mahab 4, Maqail South and Bayda. The release says the results support possible resource expansion and upgrade work, while noting that true widths are not known and some holes remain pending or in progress. The company also disclosed QA/QC procedures, a competent person statement, and the compositing rules used for significant intersections.

Reasoning: Current release reports new drill assays with copper-gold intercepts, collar data, and drill programme progress, so it is a drill\_results document with solid but not exceptional exploration significance.

- Positive factor: Further drill results reported from ongoing resource drilling.

- Positive factor: Broad high grade copper zones intersected at Mahab 4 and Maqail South.

- Positive factor: QA/QC and JORC competent person disclosure included.

- Positive factor: Cut-off grade and internal dilution rules stated for significant intersections.

- Negative factor: Reported intervals are down hole widths and true widths are not known.

- Negative factor: Some holes were still in progress or assays pending, so the programme is incomplete.

- Negative factor: One highlighted Bayda hole is vertical and down narrow mineralised zones, increasing orientation uncertainty.

- Rubric flag: drill\_results: category dominance — The release is primarily a drill results update, not a resource update, even though it discusses future resource work.

Facts used in scoring: 28

## 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 appendix states standards, blanks and duplicates are routinely inserted and the QP/Competent Person is named.

Evidence · text

> Certified reference standards, blanks and duplicates are routinely inserted

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: The company states the cut-off for significant intersections, but not a project resource cut-off; the drill interval compositing cut-off is disclosed as 0.5% Cu, so this tag is not applied.

Evidence · text

> Significant intersections are based on assays greater than 0.5% Cu

**Apparent Width Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness.

Why it applies: The release explicitly says the intervals are down hole widths and true widths are not known.

Evidence · text

> Down hole intervals have been reported. True widths are not known.

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: The programme is described as resource definition drilling and infilling previously reported Mineral Resources.

Evidence · text

> the resource definition programme

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Management says the new results point towards potential expansion of the current high grade portions of both resources.

Evidence · text

> potential expansion of the current high grade portions

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: Not applicable because the release states true widths are not known, so no true-width tag is warranted.

Evidence · text

> True widths are not known.

#### Tags used in scoring

**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: qaqc\_disclosed is true

**Compositing Transparent**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Cut-off grade and internal dilution rules are clearly stated for reported intervals.

Why it applies: cutoff\_grade and internal dilution are both stated

**Deleterious Elements Present**

Polarity: negative

Definition: A source-stated penalty, refractory or recovery concern in the fact's scope. Element detection alone, including measured elements explicitly below penalty thresholds, does not trigger this tag. Respect negation and retain a separately stated concern even when another risk is explicitly absent.

Why it applies: deleterious\_flag is true

## 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.
