## Minestarters Atlas summary

Silver X has released an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Nueva Recuperada Project in Peru, significantly increasing Measured and Indicated resources by 173% to 10.4 Mt at 213 g/t AgEq. The update also expands Inferred resources by 43% and improves the proportion of high-confidence resources within the 2025 PEA inventory from 31% to 85%.

Reasoning: The update nearly triples the Measured and Indicated silver ounces and significantly improves the geological confidence of the existing 2025 PEA mine plan.

- Positive factor: Significant tonnage growth in M&amp;I category \(+173%\)

- Positive factor: Substantial increase in silver ounces \(+211%\)

- Positive factor: Improved resource confidence \(M&amp;I now 85% of PEA inventory\)

- Positive factor: Discovery of new bulk tonnage resource at Blenda Rubia

Facts used in scoring: 6

## Classification and evidence

**Category Upgrade**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource confidence improved — Inferred upgraded to Indicated, or Indicated to Measured. De-risking signal.

Why it applies: The share of the PEA mining inventory in Measured and Indicated categories increased from 31% to 85%.

Evidence · table

> +54 points

Context: 85%

**Tonnage Growth**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: Measured and Indicated tonnage increased by 173% compared to the previous estimate.

Evidence · text

> Measured and Indicated tonnage up 173%

**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: Mr. A. David Heyl, a qualified person, reviewed and approved the technical content.

Evidence · text

> The Qualified Person reviewed the lab facilities, databases, estimation procedures, model validation and QA/QC information and considers the data suitable for the purposes of the Mineral Resource Estimate.

**NI 43-101 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The resource estimate was prepared by a QP as defined by NI 43-101.

Evidence · text

> prepared by Mr. A. David Heyl, B.Sc., C.P.G, a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101

## 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.
