## Minestarters Atlas summary

Aftermath Silver has commenced a 6,000m drilling campaign at the Berenguela silver-copper-manganese project in Peru and is starting a 2,000m program at the Challacollo silver-gold project in Chile. The Berenguela program aims to infill for resource conversion and explore high-grade copper targets, while the Challacollo program seeks to expand the existing resource.

Reasoning: The announcement focuses on the commencement of new drilling programs at two projects and references a very recent MRE update for Berenguela.

- Positive factor: continuation of drilling at flagship Berenguela

- Positive factor: commencement of drilling at Challacollo

- Positive factor: recent MRE update at Berenguela

Facts used in scoring: 24

## Classification and evidence

**Resource Update**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Revised estimate for an existing resource — compare to prior to assess progress.

Why it applies: The document references a new MRE published on December 4, 2025, for Berenguela.

Evidence · text

> A new MRE was published on December 4, 2025

**NI 43-101 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with NI 43-101 \(Canada\) — high reporting standard.

Why it applies: The Challacollo resource is based on a NI 43-101 technical report.

Evidence · text

> substantial historic NI43-101 silver resource

## 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.
