The drilling suggests the Discovery Zone remains open at depth, with some holes extending beyond the current exploration target boundary. Reasoning: The results report the project's highest-grade silver-copper intersection to date, with intercepts extending beyond previous boundaries and suggesting the zone remains open at depth. - Positive factor: highest-grade silver-copper intersection to date - Positive factor: mineralisation remains open at depth - Positive factor: extension beyond current Exploration Target boundary Facts used in scoring: 9 ## Classification and evidence **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Two of the four newly reported holes ended in mineralisation beyond the current Exploration Target boundary. Evidence · text > Two of the four newly reported holes ended in mineralisation beyond the current Exploration Target boundary. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 9. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (9) ### 26TMNRC-066 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/tertiary-minerals-reveals-latest-incredibly-compelling-silver-results-from-mushi--48568734-e510-4ca7-b27d-5f0d2fc1ac5d#fact-drill-facts-0) Mushima North · silver #### Identity - Hole ID: 26TMNRC-066 - Project: Mushima North - Commodity: silver - Region: zambia - Reported Region: zambia - Ticker: TYM #### Geometry - Grade: 89 - Grade Unit: g/t - Intercept: 82 m - From: 8 m - To: 90 m - Intercept Depth: 8 m #### Classification - Sample Type: drill - Group ID: 26TMNRC-066:8-90 #### QA/QC - QA/QC Methods: standards #### Review - Needs Review: No - Interp.

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.
