## Minestarters Atlas summary

Roxmore Resources has released a positive Preliminary Economic Assessment \(PEA\) for the Converse Gold Project in Nevada, projecting an after-tax NPV5% of US$2.7 billion and an IRR of 43%. The project features a 14-year life of mine based on a 5.2 million ounce gold resource \(Indicated and Inferred\) and will utilize a conventional open-pit heap leach operation.

Reasoning: The announcement of a positive PEA with strong economics and a large, multi-million ounce gold resource in Nevada is highly material for a developer.

- Positive factor: Strong economic indicators \(NPV5% of $2.7B, 43% IRR\)

- Positive factor: Large scale resource \(5.2 Moz Au total\)

- Positive factor: Tier 1 jurisdiction \(Nevada\)

- Positive factor: Proven heap leach amenability

- Positive factor: Significant M&amp;I component \(103 Mt Indicated\)

- Negative factor: High capital requirements \($829M pre-production\)

- Negative factor: Significant Inferred component \(218 Mt\)

- Negative factor: Silver not included in MRE due to data gaps

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**Indicated Resource**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The MRE includes 103 Mt of Indicated gold resource.

Evidence · text

> Indicated Mineral Resource estimate \("MRE"\) of 103 million tonnes \(Mt\) at an average gold grade of 0.65 g/t

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The MRE includes 218 Mt of Inferred gold resource.

Evidence · text

> Inferred Mineral Resource estimate of 218 Mt at an average gold grade of 0.43 g/t

**NI 43-101 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with NI 43-101 \(Canada\) — high reporting standard.

Why it applies: The PEA was prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 standards.

Evidence · text

> The PEA was prepared in accordance with the disclosure standards of NI 43-101.

**Heap Leach Route**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Processing via heap leach — lower CAPEX and OPEX, lower recovery expected.

Why it applies: The project envisages an open pit heap-leach mine.

Evidence · text

> The PEA envisages an open pit heap-leach mine

**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: Multiple Qualified Persons \(April Barrios, Caleb Cook, etc.\) are named and responsible for specific sections.

Evidence · text

> The scientific and technical information contained in this news release has been reviewed and approved by the following independent Qualified Persons

## 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.
