# WCN: 76.5m @ 2.01% Cu Expands Copper Envelope at Danvers 1 Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/wcn-76-5m-2-01-cu-expands-copper-envelope-at-danvers-1--114480dd-9542-4b32-8acc-17ce0721ccd1 Original source: https://www.asx.com.au/asx/v2/statistics/displayAnnouncement.do?display=pdf&idsId=03148738 Publisher: asx Original announcement: 2026-10-05T22:07:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: 2026-10-05T23:19:08.843Z Atlas analysis updated: 2026-10-05T23:19:08.843Z - Company: White Cliff Minerals Limited - Ticker: WCN - Exchange: ASX - Region: Unavailable - Primary commodity: Copper - Secondary commodities: Silver - Document categories: Drill results, Resource update - Extracted: 2026-10-05 23:19:09 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.90 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary White Cliff Minerals announced outstanding assay results from infill drilling at Danvers 1, part of its Rae Copper Project, with hole DAN26047 returning 76.5m at 2.01% Cu and 5.72g/t Ag, including high-grade sub-intervals. Deeper drilling in DAN26048, DAN26049, and DAN26050 intersected visible copper sulphides, expanding the mineralized envelope to 240m vertical depth. These results reinforce high-grade continuity and expand the interpreted mineralization, supporting a future maiden Mineral Resource Estimate. Reasoning: New high-grade copper-silver intercept in infill drilling \(DAN26047\) significantly exceeds prior project averages and best grades, reinforcing continuity and expanding the mineralized envelope. Deeper visible sulphides in other holes \(DAN26048, DAN26049, DAN26050\) further expand the interpreted mineralization, strengthening the geological model and supporting a future maiden Mineral Resource Estimate. - Positive factor: High-grade intercept - Positive factor: Significant width - Positive factor: Infill drilling reinforcing continuity - Positive factor: Deeper visible sulphides expanding envelope - Positive factor: Supports future MRE - Positive factor: Grade significantly above project average - Positive factor: Best grade significantly above prior best - Negative factor: Apparent width only - Negative factor: Visual estimates for some holes \(assays pending\) Facts used in scoring: 16 ## Classification and evidence **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: The intercept of 4m at 11.19% Cu is well above the exceptional threshold for copper in an epithermal deposit \(2.5% Cu\). Evidence · text > 4m at 11.19% Cu **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Holes DAN26048, DAN26049, and DAN26050 intersected visible copper sulphides below historical drilling, expanding the interpreted mineralisation envelope to 240m vertical depth. Evidence · text > All three holes intersected visible copper sulphides below historical drilling, expanding the interpreted mineralisation envelope **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 QA/QC procedures including the use of field duplicates, coarse blanks, and certified reference materials, and mentions ALS Yellowknife as the preparation and assay laboratory. Evidence · text > A schedule of quality control samples is inserted into the sample stream at a rate of 10%, including field duplicates, coarse blanks \(OREAS C26e\), and certified reference materials OREAS930 and OREAS922. **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 Eric Sondergaard, a member of the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists, is named as the Competent Person and consents to the inclusion of information in the announcement. Evidence · text > Mr Eric Sondergaard, who is a member of the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta and the Northwest Territories and Nunavut Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists. Mr Sondergaard is an employee of White Cliff Minerals Limited. Mr Sondergaard has sufficient experience that is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration, and to the activity being undertaken, to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. Mr Sondergaard consents to the inclusion in this announcement of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which they appear. **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: The document explicitly states that all reported intercepts are downhole lengths and true widths are not yet known. Evidence · text > All reported intercepts are downhole lengths; true widths are not yet known. **Infill Drilling** Polarity: neutral Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery. Why it applies: Hole DAN26047 was designed to infill a 200m gap at Danvers 1, reinforcing the high-grade core. Evidence · text > DAN26047, designed to infill 200m gap at Danvers 1 reinforces the high-grade core of the system **Maiden Resource** Polarity: neutral Definition: First formal MRE for the project — establishes baseline but typically exploration-stage with high Inferred component. Why it applies: The drilling program is expected to provide a foundation for geological modelling, supporting the definition of an Exploration Target and progressing towards a Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate. Evidence · text > Current drilling is expected to provide a critical foundation for geological modelling, supporting the definition of an Exploration Target and progressing the project towards a Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 16.

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.
