## Minestarters Atlas summary

Torr Metals has completed its 2026 surface geochemical sampling program at the Kolos Copper-Gold Project, covering the Bertha and Kova target areas. The company is now initiating high-resolution drone magnetic and IP geophysical surveys to refine targets for its upcoming Phase II drilling program.

Reasoning: The company has completed a systematic surface sampling program and is moving into geophysical surveys to refine targets for an upcoming Phase II drill program. While no new assay results were released, the geological observations support the porphyry model.

- Positive factor: completion of systematic surface sampling

- Positive factor: geophysical anomalies support porphyry model

- Positive factor: identification of new prospective source areas \(Bertha North and Kova\)

- Positive factor: district-scale exploration potential near New Afton and Ajax

- Negative factor: assays for the 2026 sampling program are still pending

- Negative factor: geophysical surveys are in preparation, not yet completed

Facts used in scoring: 1

## Classification and evidence

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: The company positions the project's potential based on its proximity to the New Afton and Ajax deposits.

Evidence · text

> underscoring the district-scale exploration potential of the Kolos Project\* \(Figure 2\).

#### 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.
