## Minestarters Atlas summary

Algo Grande Copper Corp. reported petrophysical testing results showing that mineralized skarn at the Adelita Project is significantly denser and more chargeable than host rocks. The company also announced a planned ground gravity survey to begin October 22, 2026, to test structural targets along a 7-kilometre corridor, following the visual identification of copper sulfides in hole AG-CG-PH2-003.

Reasoning: The release provides significant geophysical validation \(density and chargeability\) to support upcoming exploration, alongside a new visual copper intersection, though actual assay results are pending.

- Positive factor: Petrophysical testing confirms skarn is denser and more chargeable than host rocks, providing a geophysical vector

- Positive factor: Visual identification of copper sulfides in new hole AG-CG-PH2-003

- Positive factor: Planned ground gravity survey to de-risk structural targets along a 7km corridor

- Negative factor: Assays for the new skarn intersection in AG-CG-PH2-003 are still pending

- Negative factor: Petrophysical results are based on a small, selected set of samples and may not be representative

Facts used in scoring: 2

## 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 \(Zonge International\) used for testing.

Evidence · text

> The scientific and technical information disclosed in this news release has been reviewed and approved by João Rocha, EurGeol... a Qualified Person

**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 release explicitly states that intervals for AG-CG-PH2-003 are downhole lengths and true widths are not yet known.

Evidence · text

> Intervals are downhole lengths; true widths are not yet known.

## 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.
