## Minestarters Atlas summary

American Tungsten Corp. has filed a NI 43-101 Technical Report for its IMA Project in Idaho. The report details an updated Mineral Resource Estimate including 316,000 tonnes of Indicated and 2,178,000 tonnes of Inferred tungsten resources, alongside a surface tailings resource.

Reasoning: The filing of a formal NI 43-101 technical report provides regulatory transparency and updates the resource/reserve status for the IMA Project.

- Positive factor: Updated NI 43-101 technical report filed

- Positive factor: Significant inferred resource component established

- Negative factor: High proportion of inferred resource \(approx 87%\)

Facts used in scoring: 3

## Classification and evidence

**NI 43-101 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with NI 43-101 \(Canada\) — high reporting standard.

Why it applies: The company filed a National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report.

Evidence · text

> announced today the Company has filed a National Instrument 43-10 Technical Report

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: A significant portion of the resource is in the Inferred category.

Evidence · text

> 2,178,000 tonnes of Inferred Mineral Resources

## 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.
