## Minestarters Atlas summary

Koryx Copper's Haib project in Namibia features an advanced large-scale copper-molybdenum-gold porphyry resource. The March 2026 estimate includes 744Mt of indicated resource at 0.28% Cu, with recent infill drilling confirming broad mineralisation and reporting a 969m continuous intersection.

Reasoning: The document provides a significant update on an advanced copper porphyry project, including a March 2026 resource estimate and recent drill results confirming continuity.

- Positive factor: Large-scale indicated resource reported

- Positive factor: Recent infill drilling confirming consistent mineralisation

- Positive factor: Significant continuous mineralised intersection reported

- Negative factor: Economics based on older PEA and need revision in PFS

Facts used in scoring: 8

## Classification and evidence

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Recent drilling reported as infill that continues to confirm broad mineralisation.

Evidence · text

> The results continued to confirm broad, consistent mineralisation

**Infill Drilling**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery.

Why it applies: The recent drilling activity is explicitly described as infill drilling.

Evidence · text

> totalling 6 430 m of infill drilling

## 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.
