## Minestarters Atlas summary

Critica Limited announced its first Indicated Mineral Resource for the Jupiter Rare Earths Project, delineating 160 million tonnes at 1,700 ppm TREO. This update represents a significant category upgrade, with approximately 10% of the total resource now classified as Indicated, following infill drilling. Pilot-scale metallurgical testwork achieved 81% MagREO and 71% TREO recoveries, supporting the project's economic viability despite a slight decrease in overall resource tonnage and contained metal compared to the previous estimate.

Reasoning: The company delivered its first Indicated Mineral Resource, representing a significant category upgrade and de-risking of the project, supported by pilot-scale metallurgical testwork. However, the overall resource tonnage and contained metal decreased, and the majority remains in the Inferred category, with recoveries below general rare earth thresholds for their complex ore type.

- Positive factor: First Indicated Resource

- Positive factor: Category Upgrade

- Positive factor: Pilot Scale Complete

- Positive factor: Multi-Domain Tested

- Positive factor: QP/CP Signed

- Positive factor: JORC Compliant

- Positive factor: Cut-off Disclosed

- Negative factor: All Inferred

- Negative factor: Tonnage Decline

- Negative factor: Contained Metal Decline

- Negative factor: Low Recovery

- Negative factor: Refractory Ore

Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source.

**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 resource estimate clearly states a 1,000 ppm TREO lower cut-off grade.

Evidence · text

> Mineral Resources are reported at a 1,000 ppm TREO lower cut-off grade.

**JORC Compliant**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with JORC Code \(Australia\) — high reporting standard.

Why it applies: The resource estimate was prepared in accordance with the JORC Code \(2012 Edition\).

Evidence · text

> The updated Jupiter Mineral Resource Estimate \(“MRE”\) was prepared independently by SRK Consulting following infill drilling on a 125 m x 125 m grid across approximately 3.3 km² of the 42 km² Jupiter Resource footprint.

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The majority of the updated resource remains classified as Inferred.

Evidence · text

> the vast majority of the Jupiter Resource remains classified as Inferred.

**All Inferred**

Polarity: negative

Definition: 100% of resource is Inferred category — very early stage, no engineering confidence.

Why it applies: The majority of the resource \(1.5 Bt out of 1.7 Bt total\) is still in the Inferred category.

Evidence · text

> The balance of the Resource remains classified as Inferred, reflecting the broader drill spacing outside the infill-drilled area.

**Tonnage Decline**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Resource tonnage decreased vs prior estimate — pit optimization removed marginal material or geological model revised down.

Why it applies: The total resource tonnage decreased from 1.8 Bt to 1.7 Bt compared to the previous estimate.

Evidence · text

> The February 2025 MRE comprised 1.8 Bt at 1,700 ppm TREO, entirely classified as Inferred. The updated MRE comprises 160 Mt at 1,700 ppm TREO Indicated and 1.5 Bt at 1,700 ppm TREO Inferred, for a total of 1.7 Bt at 1,700 ppm TREO.

**Contained Metal Decline**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Contained metal decreased vs prior despite tonnage growth — grade dilution exceeds volume gain.

Why it applies: The total contained metal decreased from 3.06 Mt TREO to 2.89 Mt TREO due to the tonnage reduction.

Evidence · text

> The February 2025 MRE comprised 1.8 Bt at 1,700 ppm TREO, entirely classified as Inferred. The updated MRE comprises 160 Mt at 1,700 ppm TREO Indicated and 1.5 Bt at 1,700 ppm TREO Inferred, for a total of 1.7 Bt at 1,700 ppm TREO.

**Maiden Resource**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: First formal MRE for the project — establishes baseline but typically exploration-stage with high Inferred component.

Why it applies: This is the first Indicated Mineral Resource for the project, establishing a new baseline for confidence.

Evidence · text

> JUPITER DELIVERS FIRST 160 MT INDICATED MINERAL RESOURCE

**Resource Update**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: The announcement provides an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Jupiter project, superseding a previous estimate.

Evidence · text

> Critica is pleased to announce an updated Mineral Resource Estimate \(“MRE”\) for the Jupiter Rare Earths Project

**Low Recovery**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Recovery below the weak band for the commodity and processing route.

Why it applies: The reported TREO recovery of 71% and MagREO recovery of 81% are below the weak threshold of 80% for general rare earth recovery, despite the company framing them positively for their ore type.

Evidence · text

> Pilot-scale closed-circuit optimisation test work achieved recoveries of 81% for MagREO and 71% for TREO

**Pilot Scale Complete**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Pilot or demonstration plant testing completed under continuous operation.

Why it applies: Pilot-scale closed-circuit optimisation test work has been completed, representing a high level of metallurgical test maturity.

Evidence · text

> Pilot-scale closed-circuit optimisation test work achieved recoveries of 81% for MagREO and 71% for TREO

**Refractory Ore**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Ore requires oxidation/pressure treatment before recovery — a processing and recovery risk.

Why it applies: The REE mineralisation is hosted by hydrated phosphate minerals and is described as unlikely to be amenable to weak-acid leaching, requiring a more complex process flowsheet including acid baking.

Evidence · text

> Microanalysis indicates that REE mineralisation at Jupiter is largely hosted by hydrated phosphate minerals... and is therefore unlikely to be amenable to the weak-acid leaching processes typically applied to ionic adsorption clay deposits.

**Multi-Domain Tested**

Definition: Variability across ore domains \(oxide, transition, fresh\) has been addressed.

Why it applies: Metallurgical testwork included samples representing four main material types, indicating variability across ore domains has been addressed.

Evidence · text

> Bulk open-circuit test work completed on 100 kg samples representing the four main material types

**Mill Route**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: the document describes a flotation route \("flotation"\)

**Gravity Route**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Gravity separation forms a material part of the flowsheet.

Why it applies: the document describes a gravity route \("gravity"\)

## 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.
