## Minestarters Atlas summary

Hot Chili Limited announced high-grade drill results from its La Verde copper-gold porphyry discovery, including a significant 398m grading 0.45% CuEq from surface in DKP063. The program also extended mineralization to 765.2m down-hole depth in DKD060, which included a bonanza intercept of 2.3m grading 4.56% Cu. These results support the continuity of wide mineralized zones and the potential for a high-grade starter pit, advancing the project towards a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate and integration into the Costa Fuego Pre-Feasibility Study.

Reasoning: The drill results from La Verde show multiple wide and high-grade copper-gold intercepts, including a bonanza grade copper interval, extending mineralization and supporting the potential for a high-grade open pit. The disclosure of metal equivalent assumptions and compositing parameters adds to the transparency, though the lack of true width is a minor drawback.

- Positive factor: High-grade, near-surface intercepts, particularly in DKP063, indicate potential for a high-grade starter pit.

- Positive factor: Bonanza grade copper intercept of 4.56% Cu over 2.3m in DKD060 is exceptionally high.

- Positive factor: Significant widths of mineralization, including 398m from surface in DKP063 and 472m in DKD060, demonstrate continuity and scale.

- Positive factor: Extension of mineralization to 765.2m down-hole depth in DKD060 highlights vertical extent and scale potential.

- Positive factor: Results support the continuity of wide mineralized zones across the deposit and suggest potential for expansion.

- Negative factor: Intervals are reported as downhole widths only, with no true width stated, which may overstate true thickness.

- Negative factor: The initial 472m interval in DKD060 is a re-release of previously reported results, reducing its novelty.

Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source.

Facts used in scoring: 108

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The intercept of 2.3m grading 4.56% Cu in DKD060 is exceptionally high-grade for a porphyry copper deposit, well above the typical exceptional threshold of 0.8% Cu.

Evidence · text

> narrow, higher-grade zone of 2.3 m grading 4.56% Cu from 655.5 m

**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 states that assays are from 'two accredited laboratories' and that the technical information has been reviewed and approved by a 'Qualified Person' and 'Competent Person' \(Christian Easterday, MAIG\) under NI 43-101 and JORC Code.

Evidence · text

> assay turnaround time improves from two accredited laboratories. ... 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 ... a 'Competent Person' as defined in the 2012 Edition of the 'Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves' \(JORC Code\).

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The updated DKD060 result 'confirms continuity of the mineralised porphyry system to 765.2 m' and DKP064 results 'suggests potential for expansion in this direction'.

Evidence · text

> An additional intersection of 123.1 m grading 0.30% CuEq \(0.27% Cu, 0.02 g/t Au\) from 642.1 m confirms continuity of the mineralised porphyry system to 765.2 m ... suggests potential for expansion in this direction

**Compositing Transparent**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The document clearly states the nominal cut-off grade of 0.20% Cu and mentions that reported intersections may include internal dilution, including zones exceeding 30m downhole width.

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

**Metal Equivalent Opaque**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Metal equivalent grade reported without disclosing the price, recovery, or payability assumptions used.

Why it applies: The metal equivalent formula, metal prices, and recovery assumptions used for the CuEq calculation are explicitly disclosed in the footnotes.

Evidence · text

> Copper Equivalent \(CuEq\) reported for the drillhole intersections were calculated using the following formula: CuEq% = \(\(Cu% × Cu price 1% per tonne × Cu\_recovery\) + \(Mo ppm × Mo price per g/t × Mo\_recovery\) + \(Au ppm × Au price per g/t × Au\_recovery\) + \(Ag ppm × Ag price per g/t × Ag\_recovery\)\) / \(Cu price 1% per tonne × Cu\_recovery\). The Metal Prices applied in the calculation were: Cu=4.50 USD/lb, Au=3,150 USD/oz, Mo=20 USD/lb, and Ag=30 USD/oz. ... Recoveries of 83% Cu, 56% Au, 83% Mo and 37% Ag.

**Apparent Width Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness.

Why it applies: The document reports intercept lengths as downhole widths without providing true width estimates or sufficient information to infer true width.

Evidence · text

> Intersection From \| Intersection To \| Interval \(m\)

**Stale Data Re-release**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Historical results re-announced with no new assays or reinterpretation — low genuine novelty.

Why it applies: The release explicitly states that final assay results for the deeper portion of DKD060 have been added to a 'previously reported intersection' from an announcement dated 24 August 2026.

Evidence · text

> Final assay results for the deeper portion of DKD060 have been added to the previously reported intersection of 472 m grading 0.41% CuEq \(0.34% Cu, 0.08 g/t Au\) from 49 m \(see announcement dated 24 August 2026\).

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: The drilling is described as 'supporting the continuity of wide mineralised zones' and 'reinforcing the potential for a high-grade starter pit', indicating a focus on resource definition and confidence.

Evidence · text

> supporting the continuity of wide mineralised zones across the deposit. ... reinforcing the potential for a high-grade starter pit

**Mill Route**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Processing via mill or concentrator \(CIL, CIP, tank leach, flotation\).

Why it applies: the document describes a mill\_cil route \("CIP"\)

Reasoning: A new, deep copper intercept that significantly extends the known mineralization, despite being below average grade, indicating substantial vertical potential.

- Positive factor: Extends mineralization to significant depth \(765.2m\), highlighting vertical extent.

- Positive factor: Good width for a deeper intercept.

- Negative factor: Grade is below the project average for copper \(0.429% Cu\).

## 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.
