## Minestarters Atlas summary

Greenland Mines Ltd. has announced its first Indicated Mineral Resource for the Sarfartoq project under the S-K 1300 framework. The resource estimate includes a preferred 'Hybrid' mining scenario of 6.9 Mt Indicated at 1.60% TREO and 5.3 Mt Inferred at 0.96% TREO.

Reasoning: The announcement of the first Indicated resource under a US-recognized framework \(S-K 1300\) is a major de-risking milestone for the project's ability to support an Initial Assessment.

- Positive factor: First Indicated resource under S-K 1300

- Positive factor: Hybrid mining scenario modeling

- Positive factor: High metallurgical recovery for Nd and Dy

- Positive factor: Strategic offtake agreement with Neo Performance Materials

- Negative factor: Resource is not a reserve

- Negative factor: Acquisition of Neo North Star not yet closed

Facts used in scoring: 5

## Classification and evidence

**Category Upgrade**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource confidence improved — Inferred upgraded to Indicated, or Indicated to Measured. De-risking signal.

Why it applies: The project has moved from being classified entirely as Inferred to having an Indicated component under S-K 1300.

Evidence · text

> Sarfartoq now carries part of its ST1 resource in the Indicated category under S-K 1300.

**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: The report was prepared by an independent Qualified Person \(Ronald G. Simpson, P.Geo\).

Evidence · text

> prepared by Ronald G. Simpson, P.Geo, of GeoSim Services Inc., an independent Qualified Person

**High Recovery**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: Hydrometallurgical leach recoveries for Nd and Dy are in the exceptional range.

Evidence · text

> hydrometallurgical leach recoveries up to approximately 98% to 99% for neodymium

## 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.
