## Minestarters Atlas summary

PMET Resources has collected over 2.5 tonnes of pollucite pegmatite samples from the Vega Zone at the CV13 Pegmatite using a large-diameter shallow coring method. These bulk samples are intended to support ore sorting and downstream caesium chemical testwork, with results expected in early 2027.

Reasoning: The company is conducting a large-scale sampling program \(BerryPick\) to generate bulk material for ore sorting and downstream chemical testwork, a key step for project advancement.

- Positive factor: Large scale sampling \(2.5 tonnes\) supports feasibility-level testwork

- Positive factor: Innovative large-diameter coring method provides representative material

- Positive factor: Strategic engagement with downstream players like Koch Technology Solutions

- Negative factor: Results are visual estimates and XRF readings, not laboratory assays

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**QA/QC Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).

Why it applies: The document mentions visual identification, portable XRF readings, and prior geochemical assay of the outcrop.

Evidence · text

> determined based on visual identification, portable XRF readings on site, as well as prior sampling and geochemical assay

**Mill Route**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Processing via mill or concentrator \(CIL, CIP, tank leach, flotation\).

Why it applies: the document describes a mill\_cil route \("CIP"\)

**Gravity Route**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Gravity separation forms a material part of the flowsheet.

Why it applies: the document describes a gravity route \("gravity"\)

## 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.
