## Minestarters Atlas summary

New Murchison Gold Limited has released its annual Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves Statement for the financial year ending 30 June 2026. The company reported an increase in total Mineral Resources to 353,700 ounces at 2.4 g/t gold and total Ore Reserves to 90,800 ounces at 2.5 g/t gold, successfully replacing mining depletion. The update includes maiden Mineral Resource Estimates for Lydia and Abbotts, and a maiden Ore Reserve for Cloudkicker, all compliant with JORC 2012.

Reasoning: New Murchison Gold Limited has reported a significant increase in overall contained gold ounces for both Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves, successfully replacing mining depletion. The update includes maiden estimates for new deposits and category upgrades, all compliant with JORC 2012 and supported by active mining operations, indicating strong project growth and de-risking.

- Positive factor: Overall contained gold ounces increased for both resources and reserves

- Positive factor: Exploration successfully replaced mining depletion

- Positive factor: Maiden Mineral Resource Estimates for Lydia and Abbotts

- Positive factor: Maiden Ore Reserve for Cloudkicker

- Positive factor: Category upgrades from Inferred to Indicated for several deposits

- Positive factor: JORC 2012 compliant estimates signed off by Competent Persons

- Positive factor: Active mining operations at Crown Prince and Cloudkicker

- Negative factor: Some areas still require additional drilling for classification improvement or to define boundaries

- Negative factor: Potential for deleterious elements \(arsenic\) at Lydia requires further investigation

## 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.
