Facts used in scoring: 13

## Classification and evidence

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The Boomerang project contains 0.3 million tonnes of Inferred Resources.

Evidence · text

> Inferred Resources of 0.3 million tonnes

**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: The resource estimate is historical and has not been verified by the current company or QP.

Evidence · text

> Canterra is not treating the Boomerang and Domino Mineral Resource Estimates as current resource estimates but rather as historical 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.
