## Minestarters Atlas summary

Electrum Discovery is advancing exploration at its Timok East \(copper-gold\) and Novo Tlamino \(gold-silver\) projects in Serbia. Key activities include a second-phase AMT survey at Timok East and planned infill and step-out drilling at the Barje deposit to support a resource update.

Reasoning: The company is providing an operational update highlighting ongoing geophysical work and planning for infill drilling to upgrade an existing inferred resource at Novo Tlamino.

- Positive factor: planned infill drilling to upgrade resource category

- Positive factor: expansion of exploration footprint via new licence

- Positive factor: ongoing geophysical surveys to refine targeting

- Negative factor: current resource is entirely Inferred category

- Negative factor: resource estimate is historical \(2021\)

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Speculative category — limited drilling, geological continuity assumed but not confirmed. Cannot support economic studies alone.

Why it applies: The Barje deposit resource is stated as being in the inferred category.

Evidence · text

> contains an inferred resource of 7.1 Mt

**Historical Estimate Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Estimate pre-dates or does not comply with current JORC/NI 43-101 standards — requires verification drilling.

Why it applies: The resource estimate is based on a 2021 PEA.

Evidence · text

> as defined in a 2021 Preliminary Economic Assessment

**QP/CP Signed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience.

Why it applies: Mr. Thomas Sant is named as the Qualified Person who reviewed the release.

Evidence · text

> reviewed and approved by Mr. Thomas Sant BSc, FGS, CGeol, EurGeol

## 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.
