## Minestarters Atlas summary

Centenario Gold Corp. has released assay results from a surface and underground sampling program at the Los Reyes Project in Mexico. The results confirm a significant copper-molybdenum-gold skarn system, highlighted by high-grade copper intercepts and anomalous gold values.

Reasoning: The sampling program confirms a significant copper-moly-gold skarn system with high-grade intercepts \(up to 27.9% Cu\) and clear QA/QC protocols.

- Positive factor: High-grade copper intercepts in surface/underground samples

- Positive factor: Confirmation of skarn system with multiple metals

- Positive factor: QA/QC disclosed with certified lab

Facts used in scoring: 9

## 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: Release mentions ALS Chemex laboratory and specific analytical methods \(Au-AA23, ME-ICP61\).

Evidence · text

> transported the senior geologist directly to the ALS Chemex Preparation Laboratory

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: 27.9% Cu is exceptionally high for a skarn system.

Evidence · text

> 27.9 % Cu value obtained from rock sample no. 417968

## 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.
