Key intercepts include 188 m grading 0.56% CuEq from 24 m and 240 m grading 0.43% CuEq from 36 m. These results further define the scale and continuity of near-surface mineralization, supporting the upcoming maiden Mineral Resource Estimate and potential integration into the Costa Fuego Project's Pre-Feasibility Study. Reasoning: The drill results confirm broad, shallow copper-gold mineralization with significant widths and grades, extending the known footprint and providing critical data for the upcoming maiden Mineral Resource Estimate and Pre-Feasibility Study integration. - Positive factor: Broad intercepts \(e.g., 188m, 240m, 160m\) confirm significant mineralization widths. - Positive factor: Shallow mineralization \(from 0m, 12m, 24m, 36m\) supports potential low-strip-ratio open pit mining. - Positive factor: High-grade sub-intervals \(e.g., 26m @ 0.70% CuEq, 54m @ 0.60% CuEq\) enhance overall resource quality. - Positive factor: Continuity of mineralization confirmed, with expansion along the eastern flank. - Positive factor: Results provide critical data for the upcoming maiden Mineral Resource Estimate \(MRE\) and integration into the Pre-Feasibility Study \(PFS\). - Positive factor: Copper equivalent grades are generally good for a porphyry system, with some intercepts exceeding peer 75th percentile. - Negative factor: Intercepts are reported as downhole \(apparent\) widths only, with no true width stated. - Negative factor: Some individual copper grades are below the project's historical average. Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated ### DKP082 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/hot-chili-broad-shallow-copper-gold-intersections-continue-to-grow-la-verde--47262427-bf6d-47ff-b9be-ced10f7a39c7#fact-drill-facts-108) La Verde · silver #### Identity - Hole ID: DKP082 - Project: La Verde - Commodity: silver - Region: chile - Reported Region: chile - Ticker: HCH #### Geometry - Grade: 1.02 - Grade Unit: ppm ag - Intercept: 158 m - Hole Depth: 288 m #### Classification - Deposit Type: porphyry - Sample Type: drill - Mining Method: open\_pit #### Location - Easting: 324705 - Northing: 6785590 - Elevation: 1138 m - Dip: -67 ° - Loc. Confidence: high - Loc. Source: document #### QA/QC - QP Signed: Yes - QA/QC Methods: standards #### Metal Equivalent - Metal Eq. Grade: 0.36 - Metal Eq. Unit: % cueq Cu-Eq - Assumptions Disclosed: Yes #### Compositing - Dilution Disclosed: Yes #### Review - Needs Review: No - Interp. Status: scored - Historical: No #### Dates - Event date: 2026-10-08T00:00:00.000Z Reasoning: Expanded from assay table: 1.02 ppm ag silver, reported in a unit the rubric does not cover \(g/t\). - Negative factor: Grade unit ppm ag does not match the silver rubric unit g/t; not scored.

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.
