# ZEU: Priority Drill Target Defined - Diaguili Copper Gold Project Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/zeu-priority-drill-target-defined-diaguili-copper-gold-project--dfe154bc-466f-4c47-a107-137e59fc4f0e Original source: https://www.asx.com.au/asx/v2/statistics/displayAnnouncement.do?display=pdf&idsId=03150923 Publisher: asx Original announcement: 2026-10-11T21:23:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: 2026-10-11T22:29:18.340Z Atlas analysis updated: 2026-10-11T22:29:18.340Z - Company: Zeus Resources Limited - Ticker: ZEU - Exchange: ASX - Region: Mauritania - Primary commodity: Copper - Secondary commodities: Gold - Document categories: Other, Drill results - Extracted: 2026-10-11 22:29:19 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.60 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Zeus Resources has defined a 1.7 km long bedrock conductor at the Diaguili Copper–Gold Project through the reprocessing of historical VTEM data. This untested conductor is located at depth and offset from known high-grade historical intersections, providing a priority target for a maiden diamond drilling programme planned for Q4 2026. Reasoning: The announcement defines a significant new geophysical target \(the Diaguili Conductor\) via data reprocessing, which provides a high-priority target for upcoming maiden drilling, though it contains no new assay results. - Positive factor: large 1.7km conductor defined - Positive factor: conductor is untested and open at depth - Positive factor: conductor is offset from historical drilling, suggesting new target - Negative factor: no new assays reported - Negative factor: historical data not JORC compliant - Negative factor: source of conductor \(sulphide vs non-sulphide\) unconfirmed Facts used in scoring: 9 ## Classification and evidence **Stale Data Re-release** Polarity: negative Definition: Historical results re-announced with no new assays or reinterpretation — low genuine novelty. Why it applies: The announcement primarily re-interprets historical geophysical data and quotes historical drill results without new assays. Evidence · text > A reprocessing and re-interpretation of historic airborne VTEM data defined a discrete bedrock conductor **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 historical drill results cited are not accompanied by QA/QC protocols or lab certification in this document. Evidence · text > Sampling methods and intervals for the historical drilling are not documented. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 9. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (9) ### F-07 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/zeu-priority-drill-target-defined-diaguili-copper-gold-project--dfe154bc-466f-4c47-a107-137e59fc4f0e#fact-drill-facts-0) Diaguili Copper–Gold · copper Historical result Needs review: historical\_restatement #### Identity - Hole ID: F-07 - Project: Diaguili Copper–Gold - Commodity: copper - Region: mauritania - Reported Region: mauritania - Ticker: ZEU #### Geometry - Grade: 1.43 - Grade Unit: % - Intercept: 33 m - From: 0 m - To: 33 m - Intercept Depth: 0 m #### Classification - Sample Type: drill - Group ID: F-07:0-33 #### Location - CRS: WGS84 UTM Zone 28N #### QA/QC - QA/QC Disclosed: Yes #### Review - Needs Review: Yes - Review Reason: historical\_restatement - 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.
