## Minestarters Atlas summary

Prospectiva Resources reported high-grade gold reconnaissance results from its Pico do Jabre and Desterro projects in Brazil, with intercepts up to 9.72 g/t Au and 6.09 g/t Au. The results highlight a recurring gold-bismuth association at Desterro, supporting an intrusion-related exploration model.

Reasoning: Reconnaissance rock-chip sampling returned high-grade gold intercepts and a notable gold-bismuth association across two projects, though continuity and bedrock source remain unconfirmed.

- Positive factor: High-grade gold intercepts \(up to 9.72 g/t Au\)

- Positive factor: Recurring gold-bismuth association

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

- Positive factor: Large exploration land position

- Negative factor: Sampling is reconnaissance rock-chip \(not drilling\)

- Negative factor: Continuity not yet established

- Negative factor: Bedrock sources of float are unknown

Facts used in scoring: 15

## Classification and evidence

**QA/QC Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).

Why it applies: Release mentions review of analytical certificates and quality-control information by a Qualified Person.

Evidence · text

> The Qualified Person reviewed the analytical certificates, sample locations and descriptions, and available quality-control information

**QP/CP Signed**

Polarity: positive

Story-specific tag

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: Robert Selwyn, MGeol, CGeol, FGS, is named as the Qualified Person.

Evidence · text

> reviewed and approved by Robert Selwyn, MGeol, CGeol, FGS, a Qualified Person

## 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.
