## Minestarters Atlas summary

Kazera Global has completed an independent technical report for its Sea Concession 2A heavy mineral sands project in South Africa. The report confirms an inferred resource of 6.65 million tonnes at 20.04% THM within a small evaluation area and identifies a substantial geological target of up to 265.2 million tonnes in the remaining license area.

Reasoning: The technical report confirms a significant inferred resource and identifies a massive geological target, providing a firmer technical foundation for the project.

- Positive factor: Inferred resource confirmed by independent technical report

- Positive factor: High grade \(20.04% THM\) compared to global peers

- Positive factor: Significant geological target identified in remaining license area

- Positive factor: High proportion of economic heavy minerals

- Negative factor: Resource is currently 100% Inferred

- Negative factor: Regulatory milestone \(Mining Right\) still pending

Facts used in scoring: 1

## Classification and evidence

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The reported resource is explicitly categorized as inferred.

Evidence · text

> contains an inferred mineral resource of 6.65-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: The technical report was approved and signed off by Creo Geo Consulting.

Evidence · text

> approved and signed off by Creo Geo Consulting

**Resource Update**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Revised estimate for an existing resource — compare to prior to assess progress.

Why it applies: The report refines and confirms provisional findings announced earlier in the month.

Evidence · text

> This report confirms and refines the key provisional findings announced earlier this month.

## 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.
