## Minestarters Atlas summary

Algo Grande reported petrophysical testing results showing mineralized skarn at Cerro Grande is significantly denser and more chargeable than host rocks. The company is launching a large-scale ground gravity survey on October 22, 2026, to test multiple structural targets along a 7-kilometre corridor. Additionally, drill hole AG-CG-PH2-003 intersected visible copper sulfides in a new skarn target, with assays pending.

Reasoning: The release provides significant geophysical/petrophysical validation for the skarn model and announces a major upcoming survey, alongside a new drill intersection with visible mineralization, though assay results are pending.

- Positive factor: Petrophysical testing confirms skarn density and chargeability contrast

- Positive factor: New drill hole \(AG-CG-PH2-003\) intersected visible copper sulfides at a new target

- Positive factor: Planned gravity survey will de-risk structural targets along 7km corridor

- Negative factor: Assays for new skarn intersection are still pending

- Negative factor: Petrophysical results are based on a small sample set \(18 cores\)

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 names a Qualified Person \(João Rocha\) and a specific laboratory \(Zonge International\) for the petrophysical testing.

Evidence · text

> reviewed and approved by João Rocha, EurGeol... 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 is using geophysical and petrophysical data to target structural intersections along a 7km corridor related to the Cerro Grande discovery.

Evidence · text

> The combined gravity and IP data are designed to test these targets and may identify new ones.

Reasoning: Intersection of visible copper sulfides in a new target is a positive exploration signal, but lacks assay confirmation.

- Positive factor: Visible copper sulfides \(chalcopyrite, covellite, bornite\) logged

- Negative factor: Assays are pending

- Negative factor: Visual observations are preliminary

Evidence · text

#### 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.
