## Minestarters Atlas summary

Aeonian Resources has updated its geological model for the Koocanusa Copper-Silver Project, identifying a 50-kilometre corridor with multiple vertically stacked copper-bearing horizons. Recent drilling at the Jake showing confirmed that surface mineralization extends into the subsurface, providing a framework for targeting untested Lower and Middle units.

Reasoning: The release provides a significant geological reinterpretation and expands the exploration target area, though it lacks specific numeric assay data for the recent drilling.

- Positive factor: Identification of a large 50km exploration corridor

- Positive factor: Discovery of multiple vertically stacked prospective units

- Positive factor: Drilling confirmed surface stratigraphy extends into subsurface

- Positive factor: Significant pipeline of unsampled surface occurrences

- Negative factor: No specific assay grades or widths reported for the Jake drilling

- Negative factor: Most prospective units remain untested by drilling

Facts used in scoring: 1

## Classification and evidence

**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 includes a sign-off by a Qualified Person \(Andrew Randell, P.Geo.\)

Evidence · text

> reviewed and approved by Andrew Randell, P.Geo., President and CEO... and a "Qualified Person"

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: The company compares its stratigraphy to the past-producing Troy copper-silver mine in Montana to illustrate potential.

Evidence · text

> The Middle Creston Formation is broadly equivalent to the Revett Formation in Montana, which hosts the past-producing Troy copper-silver mine.

**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 \("CIP"\)

Evidence · text

> Drilling encountered two distinct bands of copper mineralization

#### 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.
