## Minestarters Atlas summary

Hispania Resources has completed its inaugural drilling program at the Lumbrales Property in Spain, successfully intersecting the North Vein System. While the release confirms the presence of cassiterite mineralization, specific assay grades for the new holes are pending results from ALS Seville.

Reasoning: The company completed its first drilling program at a past producing property, identifying mineralization, but has not yet released specific assay grades for the new intercepts.

- Positive factor: successful intersection of North Vein System

- Positive factor: proximity to producing Barruecopardo mine

- Positive factor: geophysical anomalies identified

- Negative factor: lack of specific assay grades for new drilling

- Negative factor: results are qualitative/descriptive rather than quantitative

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**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: While a lab is named, specific assay protocols \(blanks, standards, etc.\) are not detailed in this release.

Evidence · text

> Samples were obtained and they have been delivered to ALS in Seville for processing.

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: The project is noted as being proximal to the producing Barruecopardo mine.

Evidence · text

> is proximal to the producing open pit Barruecopardo mine in Salamanca, Spain

## 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.
