## Minestarters Atlas summary

Southern Silver Exploration reported high-grade polymetallic channel sampling results from the Puro Corazon Mine, part of its Cerro Las Minitas project. Highlights include 2.8 metres of 757 g/t AgEq and 3.2 metres of 479 g/t AgEq, with a peak of 1097 g/t AgEq over 1.0 metre. These results will be incorporated into an updated Mineral Resource Estimate and Preliminary Economic Assessment.

Reasoning: The underground channel sampling at Puro Corazon returned multiple high-grade polymetallic intercepts, with several exceeding 750 g/t AgEq, including a peak of 1097 g/t AgEq. These results are critical for the upcoming Mineral Resource Estimate and Preliminary Economic Assessment updates, demonstrating strong potential for the Cerro Las Minitas project.

- Positive factor: Exceptional AgEq grades

- Positive factor: Polymetallic mineralization

- Positive factor: True width disclosed

- Positive factor: Supports resource update

- Positive factor: Comprehensive QA/QC

- Positive factor: Metal equivalent assumptions transparent

Facts used in scoring: 24

## Classification and evidence

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: Several channel samples returned exceptionally high silver equivalent grades, such as 757 g/t AgEq over 2.8m, 479 g/t AgEq over 3.2m, and 1097 g/t AgEq over 1.0m, which are well above typical thresholds.

Evidence · text

> 2.8m of 757g/t AgEq and 3.2m of 479 g/t AgEq from Underground Channel Sampling at the Puro Corazon Mine

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length.

Why it applies: The company explicitly states that intervals are reported as estimated true thickness, providing clarity on the geometry of the mineralization.

Evidence · text

> Intervals are reported as estimated true thickness unless otherwise indicated

**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: The release details the analytical laboratory \(ALS Laboratories\), assay methods \(FA/AA, ICP-AES, FA-Grav, titration\), and mentions a Qualified Person \(Robert Macdonald, P.Geo\) supervising data collection.

Evidence · text

> Analyzed by FA/AA for gold and ICP-AES by ALS Laboratories, North Vancouver, BC. ... Robert Macdonald, MSc. P.Geo, is a Qualified Person

**Compositing Transparent**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Cut-off grade and internal dilution rules are clearly stated for reported intervals.

Why it applies: The document clearly states the cut-off grades \(80g/t AgEq and 0.5g/t AuEq\) and internal dilution rules \(<20%\) used for calculating composites.

Evidence · text

> Composites are calculated using a 80g/t AgEq cut-off in sulphide and 0.5g/t AuEq in the oxide gold zone. Composites have <20% internal dilution

**Metal Equivalent Assumptions Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: No canonical definition is currently available.

Why it applies: The release provides the specific metal prices and metallurgical recoveries used to calculate the silver equivalent \(AgEq\) grades.

Evidence · text

> AgEq and ZnEq were calculated using prices of $2,800/oz Au, $32/oz Ag, $4.50/lb Cu, $0.95/lb Pb and $1.25/lb Zn. 3\) AgEq and ZnEq calculations utilized relative metallurgical recoveries of Au 48.6%, Ag 93%, Cu 70%, Pb 87% and Zn 93%.

**Underground Mining**

Polarity: neutral

Story-specific tag

Definition: No canonical definition is currently available.

Why it applies: The sampling was conducted as 'Underground Channel Sampling' within the 'Puro Corazon Mine' which has 'underground workings' and 'mining levels'.

Evidence · text

> Underground Channel Sampling at the Puro Corazon Mine

**Skarn**

Polarity: neutral

Story-specific tag

Definition: No canonical definition is currently available.

Why it applies: The document explicitly states that sampling targeted 'areas of skarn alteration and mineralization'.

Evidence · text

> Sampling targeted areas of skarn alteration and mineralization

## 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.
