## Minestarters Atlas summary

Bravo Mining reports encouraging metallurgical results from its Luanga deposit in Brazil, demonstrating that Jameson Cell technology significantly improves recoveries and concentrate grades compared to conventional flotation. The testing showed a 5-30% improvement in nickel recoveries and a 5-10% improvement in platinum, palladium, and gold recoveries, while reducing mass pull by up to 50%.

Reasoning: The results demonstrate significant metallurgical improvements \(5-30% Ni recovery increase and 5-10% PGM/Au increase\) using Jameson Cell technology, which is critical for the upcoming PFS.

- Positive factor: Improved recoveries with Jameson Cell technology

- Positive factor: Higher concentrate grades achieved

- Positive factor: Significant reduction in mass pull

- Positive factor: Technical support and performance guarantees from Glencore Technology

Facts used in scoring: 8

## Classification and evidence

**High Recovery**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Recovery at or above the exceptional band for the commodity and processing route.

Why it applies: Jameson Cell technology demonstrated 5-10% improvement in Pt, Pd, Au and 5-30% in Ni recoveries.

Evidence · text

> reaffirmed a potential 5-10% improvement in Pt, Pd and Au recoveries and 5-30% higher Ni recoveries vs. conventional Denver cells

**Mill Route**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: The program focuses on flotation using Jameson Cells.

Evidence · text

> establishing it as the preferred flotation route for the upcoming Pre-Feasibility Study

## 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.
