## Minestarters Atlas summary

Super Copper Corp. has reported visible copper mineralization in all four initial diamond drill holes of its maiden Cordillera Cobre Project maiden program at El Alto, Chile. While copper sulphides were logged in three holes, all results are based on visual observations and formal assay results are currently pending.

Reasoning: The release reports successful visual identification of copper minerals in a maiden drilling program, which is a positive exploration signal, but lacks the quantitative assay data required for high-confidence technical assessment.

- Positive factor: Visible copper mineralization in all four initial holes

- Positive factor: Presence of copper sulphides \(chalcocite, covellite, bornite\) in three holes

- Positive factor: Consistent host units and depths suggest structural/stratigraphic control

- Positive factor: Maiden program successfully identifying targets

- Negative factor: Assays are still pending; grades and widths are unconfirmed

- Negative factor: Visual observations are preliminary and not representative of grade

- Negative factor: True widths are unknown

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

Facts used in scoring: 10

## 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 includes details on chain-of-custody, laboratory \(ALS\), and QA/QC methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).

Evidence · text

> APEX Geoscience Ltd. logs, photographs and samples the core under chain-of-custody procedures. Core is cut with a diamond saw, with half submitted to ALS and half retained; quarter-core portions are used for field-duplicate pairs.

**Apparent Width Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness.

Why it applies: All reported copper occurrences are based on visual observations and downhole depths; true widths are explicitly stated as unknown.

Evidence · text

> Drill intervals and occurrence depths are downhole; true widths are unknown.

## 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.
