## Minestarters Atlas summary

Jaguar Mining reported a 30% year-over-year increase in consolidated gold production for Q3 2026, totaling 12,981 ounces. The growth was primarily driven by the ramp-up of the Turmalina Mine and steady performance at the Pilar Mine, with full-year production guidance maintained.

Reasoning: Strong quarterly production growth driven by mine ramp-ups, despite some grade and recovery variability.

- Positive factor: 30% year-over-year consolidated gold production growth

- Positive factor: Turmalina Mine ramp-up contributing 34% of quarterly production

- Positive factor: Full-year production guidance maintained

- Negative factor: Lower average head grade at Pilar Mine compared to Q3 2025

- Negative factor: Lower recovery at Turmalina Mine \(67%\) due to higher Faina ore share

## 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.
