## Minestarters Atlas summary

Silver One Resources has launched a 1,400m drilling campaign at the Candelaria Project in Nevada to upgrade Indicated and Inferred leach pad resources to Measured and Indicated categories. The program will also provide bulk samples for metallurgical pilot testing to support an upcoming Pre-Feasibility Study.

Reasoning: The company is initiating a drilling campaign to upgrade existing silver resources and conduct metallurgical testing, which is a key step toward a PFS.

- Positive factor: resource conversion intent

- Positive factor: metallurgical pilot testing support

- Positive factor: substantial existing silver resource

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**Resource Update**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Revised estimate for an existing resource — compare to prior to assess progress.

Why it applies: The announcement describes a new drilling campaign intended to upgrade existing mineral resources.

Evidence · text

> designed to upgrade the Leach Pad Indicated and Inferred mineral resources to Measured and Indicated

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The document reports a significant portion of the resource is in the Inferred category.

Evidence · text

> The Inferred category comprises an additional 11.45 million tonnes

## 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.
