## Minestarters Atlas summary

Hot Chili Limited announced strong drill results from its La Verde copper-gold porphyry discovery in Chile, including a 472m intercept grading 0.41% CuEq and a 32.6m intercept at 0.90% CuEq. These results expand the high-grade core and confirm continuity of mineralization, leading to a planned maiden Mineral Resource Estimate and a revised Pre-Feasibility Study. The company has added a fourth drill rig to accelerate operations.

Reasoning: The drill results from La Verde show multiple long and high-grade copper-gold equivalent intercepts, including a new best grade of 0.90% CuEq over 32.6m. These results expand the high-grade core and confirm continuity, supporting the upcoming maiden MRE and PFS. The company is accelerating drilling with an additional rig.

- Positive factor: High-grade intercepts

- Positive factor: Significant intercept lengths

- Positive factor: Expansion of high-grade core

- Positive factor: Confirmation of continuity

- Positive factor: Accelerated drilling program

- Positive factor: Planned maiden MRE and PFS

Facts used in scoring: 33

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: The intercept of 32.6m at 0.90% CuEq in DKD060 is exceptional for a porphyry copper deposit, exceeding the previous best grade for the project.

Evidence · table

> 32.6

Context: 0.90

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The document states 'Step-Out DD Drilling Continues to Expand High Grade Core' and DKP045D intersected multiple zones across the north-western flank, indicating expansion.

Evidence · text

> Step-Out DD Drilling Continues to Expand High Grade Core

**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 explicitly mentions Qualified Person and Competent Person sign-off, and provides a detailed formula for Copper Equivalent calculation including metal prices and recoveries.

Evidence · text

> The technical information in this announcement has been reviewed and approved by Mr Christian Easterday, MAIG, Hot Chili's Managing Director and a qualified person within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects .

**Compositing Transparent**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The document states a nominal cut-off grade of 0.20% Cu and mentions that reported intersections may include internal dilution where the overall weighted average grade remains above the cut-off.

Evidence · text

> Significant intercepts for La Verde are reported above a nominal cut-off grade of 0.20% Cu. Reported intersections may include internal dilution \(intervals below 0.20% Cu\), including zones exceeding 30 m downhole width, where the overall weighted average grade of the intersection remains above the cut-off grade.

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: The document explicitly states 'In-fill RC Drilling Confirms Continuity of Near-Surface, Bulk Mineralisation' for holes like DKP052.

Evidence · text

> In-fill RC Drilling Confirms Continuity of Near-Surface, Bulk Mineralisation

## 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.
