## Minestarters Atlas summary

Avalon Advanced Materials Inc. has announced an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for its Nechalacho Basal Zone, revalidating the project's scale and economic development potential. The estimate, prepared in accordance with S-K 1300, includes 58.6 million tonnes of Measured and Indicated resources grading 1.49% TREO, plus 130.6 million tonnes of Inferred resources grading 1.31% TREO. This update establishes a current technical and economic foundation for the project, emphasizing its significant content of magnet-critical rare earth elements and other critical minerals.

Reasoning: The updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Nechalacho Basal Zone revalidates the project's scale and economic potential, providing a current technical and economic framework compliant with S-K 1300, and highlights significant resources of magnet-critical rare earth elements and other critical minerals.

- Positive factor: Updated MRE

- Positive factor: S-K 1300 Compliant

- Positive factor: QP Signed

- Positive factor: Significant M&amp;I Resources

- Positive factor: Large Inferred Resource

- Positive factor: Magnet-Critical REEs

- Positive factor: Broad Suite of REEs

- Positive factor: Includes Other Critical Minerals

- Positive factor: Supports PEA/DFS

- Negative factor: High Inferred Component

- Negative factor: Historical Reserves Not Carried Forward

Facts used in scoring: 80

## Classification and evidence

**Measured Resource**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Highest confidence category — tonnage, grade, shape well-established from closely-spaced drilling. Basis for Proven Reserves.

Why it applies: The updated MRE includes 10.3 million tonnes classified as Measured resources.

Evidence · text

> 10.3 million tonnes classified as Measured

**Indicated Resource**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Reasonable geological confidence based on adequate drilling; continuity can be assumed. Basis for Probable Reserves.

Why it applies: The updated MRE includes 48.3 million tonnes classified as Indicated resources.

Evidence · text

> 48.3 million tonnes classified as Indicated

**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: Micon International Limited serves as the independent Qualified Person for the estimate, with Tudorel Ciuculescu, P.Geo., and Richard Gowans, P.Eng., named as Qualified Persons.

Evidence · text

> Micon also serves as the independent Qualified Person for the estimate. The S-K 1300 Technical Report for the updated 2026 Rare Earth Element Mineral Resource Estimate on Nechalacho was prepared by Tudorel Ciuculescu, P.Geo., and Richard Gowans, P.Eng., of Micon International Limited. Both Mr. Ciuculescu and Mr. Gowans are "Qualified Persons"

**Cut-off Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The mineral resource estimate was determined using an NMR cut-off value of US$366.40/t.

Evidence · text

> an NMR cut-off value of US$366.40/t

**S-K 1300 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

Definition: No canonical definition is currently available.

Why it applies: The MRE was prepared in accordance with Subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K.

Evidence · text

> prepared in accordance with Subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The updated MRE includes 130.6 million tonnes of Inferred resources.

Evidence · text

> 130.6 million tonnes of Inferred resources

**Historical Estimate Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Estimate pre-dates or does not comply with current JORC/NI 43-101 standards — requires verification drilling.

Why it applies: Historical mineral reserves from the 2013 DFS are not being treated as current under S-K 1300 and have not been carried forward into the updated 2026 MRE.

Evidence · text

> Those historical mineral reserves are not being treated as current mineral reserves under S-K 1300 and have therefore not been carried forward into the updated 2026 MRE.

**Resource Update**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Revised estimate for an existing resource — compare to prior to assess progress.

Why it applies: The document announces an 'Updated Mineral Resource Estimate' for the Nechalacho Basal Zone.

Evidence · text

> Updated Mineral Resource Estimate

**PEA-Supporting**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Resource estimate prepared to support a Preliminary Economic Assessment — early-stage study.

Why it applies: Avalon is currently advancing a Preliminary Economic Analysis \('PEA'\) based on the updated resource.

Evidence · text

> advancing a Preliminary Economic Analysis \("PEA"\) based on the updated resource

**DFS-Supporting**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Resource estimate prepared to support a Definitive Feasibility Study — requires high M&amp;I confidence.

Why it applies: Subject to the results of the PEA, Avalon expects to advance Nechalacho toward subsequent definitive feasibility-level work.

Evidence · text

> Avalon expects to advance Nechalacho toward subsequent definitive feasibility-level work

## 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.
