## Minestarters Atlas summary

Solis has reported visual confirmation of copper and molybdenum mineralisation at the Ilo Este project following its first diamond drill hole. Laboratory assay results are expected in September 2025 to confirm the extent and grade of the mineralisation.

Reasoning: The announcement reports the first visual confirmation of copper and molybdenum mineralisation at a new target, but lacks assay grades to confirm economic potential.

- Positive factor: first drill hole at Ilo Este

- Positive factor: porphyry setting confirmed

- Positive factor: extensive mineralisation observed visually

- Negative factor: grades not yet confirmed by laboratory assays

- Negative factor: visual analysis only

Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source.

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**No QA/QC Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document.

Why it applies: The release mentions visual analysis but does not yet provide laboratory assay results or QA/QC protocols for the upcoming results.

## 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.
