# Nine Mile Metals Announces Certified Assays of 3.49% Cu-Eq over 24.55 meters \(True Width\) in DDH WD-26-09 Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/nine-mile-metals-announces-certified-assays-of-3-49-cu-eq-over-24-55-meters-true--3f67d5c5-aa26-403c-8987-0ac4d8dc9951 Original source: https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/commodities/articles/nine-mile-metals-announces-certified-120000673.html Publisher: yahoo\_press Original announcement: 2026-08-12T12:00:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Nine Mile Metals Ltd. - Ticker: NINE - Exchange: CSE - Region: New Brunswick - Primary commodity: Copper - Secondary commodities: Silver - Document categories: Drill results - Extracted: 2026-08-21 10:07:10 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.90 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Nine Mile Metals announced certified drill results from hole WD-26-09 at the Wedge Mine, featuring a high-grade 3.49% Cu-Eq intercept over 24.55m true width. The interval includes high-grade sub-sections and significant silver mineralization of 31.72 g/t over 21.75m. Reasoning: The intercept of 3.49% Cu-Eq over 24.55m \(true width\) is exceptionally strong for a VMS deposit, supported by high-grade sub-intervals and significant silver grades. - Positive factor: High grade Cu-Eq intercept - Positive factor: True width disclosed - Positive factor: Significant width - Positive factor: Strong silver credits Facts used in scoring: 4 ## Classification and evidence **True Width Disclosed** Polarity: positive Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length. Why it applies: The headline and text explicitly state 'True Width' for the 24.55m intercept. Evidence · text > \(True Width\) **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: The 5.22% Cu-Eq sub-interval is exceptionally high grade for a VMS deposit. Evidence · text > 5.22% Cu-Eq over 6.50m **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 company announces 'Certified Assays'. Evidence · text > Announces Certified Assays ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 4.

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.
