## Minestarters Atlas summary

Algo Grande's Phase I drilling at the Cerro Grande Skarn confirmed a vertically extensive, multi-horizon copper-silver-gold skarn system. The results include strong intercepts such as 18.2 m @ 1.8% CuEq and identify molybdenum zonation that vectors toward a potential porphyry source at depth.

Reasoning: Phase I drilling confirmed a high-grade, multi-horizon skarn system with significant expansion potential and geochemical vectors for a deeper porphyry system.

- Positive factor: strong copper-gold-silver mineralization

- Positive factor: multiple stacked skarn horizons identified

- Positive factor: molybdenum vectoring towards porphyry source

- Positive factor: mineralization extends beyond historical limits

- Negative factor: true widths unknown

- Negative factor: drilling deviation noted in AG\_GC\_003

Facts used in scoring: 7

## 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: Release includes detailed QA/QC procedures, including blanks, standards, and duplicates, and mentions a certified laboratory \(ALS\).

Evidence · text

> Quality assurance and quality control procedures included the insertion of blanks, standards, and duplicates at regular intervals.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Results confirm mineralization extends beyond the limits of earlier drilling.

Evidence · text

> results from this program confirm that mineralization extends beyond the limits of earlier drilling

**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 explicitly states that true widths are unknown for the reported intervals.

Evidence · text

> Intervals reported are downhole lengths; true widths are unknown.

## 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.
