## Minestarters Atlas summary

Aureka Limited presented an investor update highlighting its transition to a high-grade gold producer in Victoria, Australia. The company reported an increase in its Inferred JORC Resources to 455koz gold across its Irvine and Comstock projects and detailed the acquisition of the Wedderburn Mill and Fiddlers Creek Mine, which commenced production in July 2025. The presentation also included recent high-grade drill results from Comstock and Fiddlers Creek, alongside plans for near-term growth and exploration.

Reasoning: Aureka Limited's investor presentation highlights a strong growth trajectory, marked by a substantial increase in gold resources, the strategic acquisition of producing assets, and promising high-grade drill results. While the resources are currently Inferred, the overall picture is positive with clear plans for production and further exploration.

- Positive factor: Significant increase in total JORC Inferred Resources to 455koz gold, representing 50% growth since ASX debut.

- Positive factor: Strategic acquisition of an operating mill \(Wedderburn\) and mine \(Fiddlers Creek\) transitions the company to a gold producer.

- Positive factor: Recent high-grade drill intercepts from Comstock and Fiddlers Creek demonstrate ongoing exploration success and potential for resource expansion.

- Positive factor: The company is debt-free with a clear growth strategy and near-term catalysts.

- Negative factor: All reported Mineral Resources are in the Inferred category, indicating a lower level of geological confidence.

- Negative factor: Some drill results presented are legacy/historical, and the Fiddlers Creek production data is unaudited.

- Negative factor: Exploration Targets are conceptual and do not constitute Mineral Resources.

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

Facts used in scoring: 29

## Classification and evidence

Polarity: negative

Definition: Speculative category — limited drilling, geological continuity assumed but not confirmed. Cannot support economic studies alone.

Why it applies: All reported Mineral Resources are explicitly stated as 'all Inferred' and '100% inferred'.

Evidence · text

> Mineral Resources – Aureka Mineral Resources \(all Inferred\)

**JORC Compliant**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with JORC Code \(Australia\) — high reporting standard.

Why it applies: Mineral Resources and Exploration Targets are stated to be prepared and reported in accordance with the 2012 edition of the JORC Code.

Evidence · text

> The Exploration Target has been prepared and reported in accordance with the 2012 edition of the JORC Code.

**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: The Competent Person Statement on page 2 confirms that the information relating to Mineral Resources and Exploration Targets is extracted from prior ASX announcements and that the form and context of the Competent Persons’ findings have not been materially modified. Mr Jozef Story is named as the Competent Person for Fiddlers Creek exploration results.

Evidence · text

> The Company confirms that the form and context in which the Competent Persons’ findings are presented have not been materially modified from the Original Announcements. ... The information in this presentation that relates to the geology and mineralisation of the Fiddlers Creek Mine and its surrounding tenure is based on, and fairly represents, information compiled or reviewed by Mr Jozef Story, Exploration Manager of Aureka and a Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists \(MAIG\) \(\#10079\). Mr Story 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’, and consents to the inclusion in this presentation of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which they appear.

**Tonnage Growth**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Significant tonnage increase \(≥15%\) vs prior estimate with grade maintained or improved.

Why it applies: The company states an 'Increase in Inferred JORC Resources to 455koz 50% higher than ASX debut' from 304koz.

Evidence · text

Polarity: positive

Definition: Cut-off grade used for resource reporting is clearly stated, enabling like-for-like comparison.

Why it applies: Cut-off grades are explicitly stated for each resource category in the Mineral Resources table.

Evidence · table

> ≥0.5

Context: Resolution Open Pit

**Bonanza Intercept**

Polarity: positive

Context: FKH08

**Stale Data Re-release**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Historical results re-announced with no new assays or reinterpretation — low genuine novelty.

Why it applies: The drill results for Fiddlers Creek are explicitly labeled as 'legacy drill intercepts \(previously not reported to ASX\)' and 'Legacy results not previously reported in an ASX context'.

Evidence · text

> High-grade legacy drill results Refer ASX release 30 September 2026: Drilling Commences at Fiddlers Creek. Legacy results not previously reported in an ASX context.

**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 Competent Person Statement refers to JORC Code compliance and Mr Jozef Story's review of exploration results, implying QA/QC procedures are in place.

Reasoning: This new silver intercept from Comstock is of moderate grade, contributing to the overall mineralization picture but not representing a standout result for silver.

- Positive factor: New drill result, contributing to current exploration success.

- Negative factor: Silver grade \(57.8 g/t Ag\) is moderate and significantly below the project's best prior intercept \(650 g/t Ag\).

## 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.
