## Minestarters Atlas summary

Bravada Gold Corporation has updated the in-pit mineral resource for its Wind Mountain project in Nevada. The update shows significant growth in both Indicated and Inferred categories, largely due to higher metal prices making previously classified waste mineralized and profitable.

Reasoning: Significant expansion of the Inferred resource category and growth in Indicated metal content driven by higher metal prices and optimized pit shells.

- Positive factor: Indicated gold resource increased by 15%

- Positive factor: Inferred gold resource increased by 292%

- Positive factor: Inferred silver resource increased by 490%

- Positive factor: Higher metal prices converting previous waste to profitable ore

- Negative factor: Low grade of indicated resource \(0.01 oz Au/ton\)

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**Indicated Resource**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The report includes Indicated resources for gold and silver.

Evidence · text

> Indicated Resources increased by 15% for gold

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The report includes Inferred resources for gold and silver.

Evidence · text

> Inferred Resources increased by 292% for gold

**NI 43-101 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The technical report is being prepared for NI 43-101 compliance and mentions Qualified Persons.

Evidence · text

> The Qualified Persons of the technical report for the purpose of Canadian NI 43-101

**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: Multiple Qualified Persons \(QP\) are named in the release.

Evidence · text

> Thomas Dyer, Michael Lindholm and Jeffery Woods, SME MMSA QP, are the Qualified Persons

## 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.
