## Minestarters Atlas summary

Outcrop Silver has released an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Santa Ana project in Colombia, reporting 29.9 Moz AgEq in Indicated resources and 27.9 Moz AgEq in Inferred resources. The update reflects increased drilling and a more rigorous classification standard, resulting in a 106.3% increase in Inferred tonnage and a 23.5% increase in Indicated AgEq ounces compared to the 2023 Maiden MRE.

Reasoning: The update shows substantial growth in Inferred resources and a significant increase in contained metal for Indicated resources, supported by high grades and expanded drilling.

- Positive factor: Significant tonnage growth in Inferred category \(106.3%\)

- Positive factor: Contained AgEq ounces in Indicated increased 23.5% vs Maiden MRE

- Positive factor: High-grade nature confirmed \(518.7 g/t AgEq Indicated\)

- Positive factor: Expansion of known mineralized systems \(Guadual and Aguilar veins\)

- Positive factor: Substantial exploration upside with 12 untested vein systems

- Negative factor: Indicated growth was modest \(23.5%\) due to more rigorous classification standards

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**Tonnage Growth**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Significant tonnage increase \(≥15%\) vs prior estimate with grade maintained or improved.

Why it applies: Inferred resources increased 106.3% compared to the Maiden MRE.

Evidence · text

> Inferred resources increased 106.3% to 27.9 Moz AgEq

**Contained Metal Growth**

Polarity: positive

Definition: True scale improvement — contained metal ounces/tonnes increased vs prior, accounting for both tonnage and grade changes.

Why it applies: Indicated AgEq ounces increased 23.5% compared to the Maiden MRE.

Evidence · text

> Contained AgEq ounces in Indicated resources ... increased 23.5%

**QP/CP Signed**

Polarity: positive

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: Warren Black, M.Sc., P.Geo. is named as the Qualified Person responsible for the estimate.

Evidence · text

> Warren Black, M.Sc., P.Geo., ... is deemed a Qualified Person

**NI 43-101 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with NI 43-101 \(Canada\) — high reporting standard.

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Speculative category — limited drilling, geological continuity assumed but not confirmed. Cannot support economic studies alone.

Why it applies: A significant portion of the resource \(27.9 Moz AgEq\) is in the Inferred category.

Evidence · text

> Inferred resources contain 27.9 Moz AgEq

## 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.
