## Minestarters Atlas summary

Omai Gold has announced an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for its Omai Gold Property in Guyana, significantly increasing total project ounces. The update features a 49.8% increase in Wenot Indicated gold ounces and a 120.3% increase in Gilt Inferred gold ounces, supported by a higher gold price assumption of $3,000/oz.

Reasoning: The update delivers substantial scale increases in gold ounces across the project, driven by both expansion and category conversion, despite some grade dilution in the Inferred categories.

- Positive factor: Significant tonnage and ounce growth in both Indicated and Inferred categories

- Positive factor: Successful conversion of Inferred to Indicated at Wenot \(+49.8% ounces\)

- Positive factor: Major expansion of Gilt Inferred resource \(+120.3% ounces\)

- Positive factor: Increased gold price assumption used in modeling \($3,000/oz\)

- Positive factor: QA/QC disclosed with certified labs and QP sign-off

- Negative factor: Grade decline in Wenot Inferred \(-25.8%\)

- Negative factor: Grade decline in Gilt Inferred \(-3.9%\)

- Negative factor: Indicated tonnage decrease at Gilt \(-9.5%\)

Facts used in scoring: 6

## 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: Wenot Indicated MRE increased by 49.8% through conversion of Inferred ounces.

**Tonnage Growth**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Significant tonnage increase \(≥15%\) vs prior estimate with grade maintained or improved.

Why it applies: Combined project Indicated tonnage increased significantly.

Evidence · text

**Cut-off Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Cut-off grade used for resource reporting is clearly stated, enabling like-for-like comparison.

Why it applies: Cut-off grades for different mining methods and rock types are explicitly stated.

Evidence · text

> Mineral Resources are reported at cut-off grades of 0.20 g/t Au for soft rock, 0.30 g/t Au for hard rock within the open pit, and 1.70 g/t Au for underground shapes.

## 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.
