This milestone allows the company to proceed with SEMARNAT permit applications for an upcoming drill program targeting strike and depth extensions of the Veta Grande system. Reasoning: The announcement is a positive operational milestone regarding land access and permitting, which de-risks the upcoming drill program, though it does not contain new assay results. - Positive factor: Secured full land access for El Cristo Target - Positive factor: Permit applications \(SEMARNAT\) underway - Positive factor: Strong historical high-grade silver intercepts mentioned Facts used in scoring: 4 ## Classification and evidence **Permitting Milestone** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: No canonical definition is currently available. Why it applies: Company is moving forward with SEMARNAT permit applications following land access finalization. Evidence · text > the Company will move forward with its SEMARNAT permit applications to initiate drilling. **Nearology Play** Polarity: neutral Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results. Why it applies: Project is located in the Fresnillo silver belt, a prolific district. Evidence · text > within the highly prospective Fresnillo silver belt, which has produced over 6.2 billion ounces of silver. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 4.

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.
