## Minestarters Atlas summary

NexMetals has filed a NI 43-101 technical report for the 2026 Selkirk Mineral Resource Estimate in Botswana. The update reports a total resource of 93.3 million tonnes, featuring a significant increase in contained copper equivalent metal and a major conversion of resources into the Indicated category.

Reasoning: The 2026 MRE shows strong growth in contained metal and a significant de-risking through category conversion \(Inferred to Indicated\).

- Positive factor: Significant conversion of Inferred to Indicated resource

- Positive factor: 70% increase in CuEq metal inventory

- Positive factor: Successful twin drilling and re-assaying campaign

- Positive factor: High M&I percentage \(87%\)

- Negative factor: Historical data verification required for some portions

- Negative factor: Resource is not a reserve

Facts used in scoring: 28

## 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 release states a significant conversion of Mineral Resources from the Inferred to Indicated category.

Evidence · text

> reflects a significant conversion of Mineral Resources from the Inferred to Indicated category

**Indicated Resource**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The resource includes a substantial Indicated component \(78.2 Mt\).

Evidence · text

> outlines an Indicated Mineral Resource of 78.2 million tonnes

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The resource includes an Inferred component \(15.1 Mt\).

Evidence · text

> together with an Inferred Mineral Resource of 15.1 million tonnes

**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: Mr. J.C. Witley is named as the Qualified Person who reviewed and approved the technical content.

Evidence · text

> Mr. Witley has reviewed and approved the technical and scientific information in this news release

**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 is reported at a cut-off value of US$25/t NSR.

Evidence · text

> Mineral Resources are reported at a cut-off value of US$25/t Net Smelter Return \(" NSR "\)

## 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.
