## Minestarters Atlas summary

Sego Resources has intercepted porphyry-related phyllic and patchy potassic alteration in drill hole DDH25-71 at the Cuba Zone. The alteration and magnetic susceptibility signatures are geologically consistent with the nearby Billy Zone porphyry copper discovery, though assay results are still pending.

Reasoning: The drill hole intercepted significant alteration signatures \(phyllic and potassic\) characteristic of porphyry copper systems, providing geological evidence of a potential target, though actual grades are pending.

- Positive factor: intercepted porphyry-related phyllic alteration

- Positive factor: intercepted patchy potassic alteration

- Positive factor: magnetic susceptibility increase

- Positive factor: geological similarity to known mineralized intervals

- Negative factor: no assay results reported yet

Facts used in scoring: 1

## 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 names a Qualified Person \(Goran Markovic, MSc., P.Geo.\) and mentions samples being prepared for shipping to the lab.

Evidence · text

> reviewed and approved by Goran Markovic, MSc., P.Geo., who is a Qualified Person

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: The Cuba Zone is described as being 1200m northeast of the Billy Zone porphyry copper discovery.

Evidence · text

> located 1200 meters northeast of the South Gold Zone, now part of a larger Billy Zone

#### Tags used in scoring

**No QA/QC Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

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: qaqc\_disclosed is not true

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

## 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.
