## Minestarters Atlas summary

Ivanhoe Electric reported year-end exploration results from its US programs, highlighting significant copper mineralization at the Texaco Deposit in Arizona and the discovery of a porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum system at the Hog Heaven Project in Montana. Drilling at the Tintic Project in Utah continued to explore for a deep porphyry system. The company utilized its proprietary Typhoon™ geophysical surveying system to guide these exploration efforts across its portfolio.

Reasoning: Ivanhoe Electric reported new drill results that confirm and expand copper mineralization at the Texaco Deposit in Arizona, and discovered a new porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum system at the Hog Heaven Project in Montana. The results are supported by disclosed QA/QC and QP sign-off, and metal equivalent assumptions are transparent. However, all reported widths are apparent, and copper assays were capped for some intervals.

Facts used in scoring: 35

## 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: The release states that Ivanhoe Electric employs industry standard QA/QC and data verification protocols, and mentions specific methods and certified laboratories.

Evidence · text

> Ivanhoe Electric employs industry standard QA/QC and data verification protocols at the Tintic and Hog Heaven projects.

**QP/CP Signed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

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: The news release explicitly states that scientific or technical disclosures have been reviewed, verified, and approved by Glen Kuntz, P.Geo. and Shawn Vandekerkhove, P.Geo., both Qualified Persons.

Evidence · text

> Disclosures of a scientific or technical nature included in this news release... have been reviewed, verified, and approved by Glen Kuntz, P.Geo. \(Santa Cruz\) and Shawn Vandekerkhove, P.Geo. \(Hog Heaven and Tintic\), each of whom is a Qualified Person

**Lab Certified**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: No canonical definition is currently available.

Why it applies: The document states that ALS Minerals Twin Falls and ALS Laboratories in Elko, Nevada are independent laboratories certified under ISO 9001:2008 and accredited under ISO/IEC 17025:2005.

Evidence · text

> ALS Minerals Twin Falls and ALS Laboratories in Elko, Nevada are both independent laboratories certified under ISO 9001:2008 and accredited under ISO/IEC 17025:2005 by the Standards Council of Canada.

**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 reported intervals 'may not be true widths' and 'are not true widths' for all drill results.

Evidence · text

> \*Results are derived from diamond core intervals and may not be true widths but are believed to be representative of actual drill thicknesses.

**Metal Equivalent Assumptions Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: No canonical definition is currently available.

Why it applies: The long-term metal prices and the specific formula used for copper equivalency calculations are clearly stated for the Hog Heaven Project results.

Evidence · text

> \*The following long-term metal prices were used: $3.80/lb Cu, $1,707/oz Au, $22.42/oz Ag, $0.93/lb Pb, and $1.19/lb Zn. \* The specific formula used to report CuEq \(%\) is Cu% + \(\(0.655\) \* Au\(g/t\)\) + \(\(0.009\) \* Ag\(g/t\)\) + \(0.245\) \* Pb \(%\)\) + \(\(0.313\) \* Zn \(%\)\).

**Cut-off Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: Cut-off grade used for resource reporting is clearly stated, enabling like-for-like comparison.

Why it applies: The cut-off grades used for calculating reported intervals are explicitly stated for both the Santa Cruz Copper Project and the Hog Heaven Project.

Evidence · text

> \*Reported intervals at the Southwest Exploration Area are calculated at a cut-off grade of 0.70% total copper. \*Reported intervals at the Texaco Deposit are calculated at a cut-off grade of 0.80% total copper.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: The company explicitly states that drilling expanded known mineralization and demonstrated potential for future expansion of mineral resources at the Santa Cruz Copper Project.

Evidence · text

> Our technology-driven exploration platform allowed our experienced team to expand the known copper mineralization at the Texaco Deposit in Arizona

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm.

Why it applies: Hole TTD-018A returned 310.00 g/t silver over 0.25m, and TTD-018B returned 138.00 g/t gold over 0.35m, which are exceptionally high grades for their respective metals.

Evidence · table

> 310.00

Context: 0.25

**Copper Capping**

Polarity: negative

Story-specific tag

Definition: No canonical definition is currently available.

Why it applies: The release states that copper assays were capped at 10% for interval calculations for the Hog Heaven Project results, which can obscure higher-grade zones.

Evidence · text

> \*Copper assays were capped at 10% for interval calculations.

Reasoning: Expanded from assay table. 0.06 g/t gold is moderate against the open\_pit mining band \[5, 2, 1, 0.3\] g/t. Grade×width 40.8 g/t·m is moderate \(grade alone is below; the better of the two is used\).

- Negative factor: Scored from rubric bands during table expansion, not from document context.

## 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.
