The company is also progressing environmental permitting \(FTA and EIA-d\) and planning a 3,000m diamond drill program for resource confirmation. Reasoning: The company is actively de-risking the Pico Machay project by running technical studies \(PEA, resource update, metallurgy\) in parallel with permitting and resource confirmation drilling. - Positive factor: Advancement of multidisciplinary engineering team for PEA and resource update - Positive factor: Progress in environmental permitting \(FTA\) and EIA-d initiation - Positive factor: Planned resource confirmation drilling \(3,000m\) - Positive factor: High-grade historical sampling results \(13.76 g/t Au over 4.5 m\) - Negative factor: Project is still in advanced exploration/early study stage Facts used in scoring: 2 ## Classification and evidence **PEA-Supporting** Polarity: neutral Definition: Resource estimate prepared to support a Preliminary Economic Assessment — early-stage study. Why it applies: The company is assembling a team to commence work on a Preliminary Economic Assessment \(PEA\). Evidence · text > planned commencement of work on an updated mineral resource estimate and Preliminary Economic Assessment \(“PEA”\). **Infill Drilling** Polarity: neutral Story-specific tag Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery. Why it applies: The planned 3,000m program includes 2,000m of resource confirmation drilling. Evidence · text > includes approximately 2,000 m of resource confirmation drilling **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: Historical surface channel sampling returned 13.76 g/t Au over 4.5 m, which is high-grade for an epithermal system. Evidence · text > including 13.76 g/t Au over 4.5 m ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 2.

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.
