## Minestarters Atlas summary

Verde AgriTech has confirmed ionic-adsorption behavior at the Minas Americas Project in Brazil through ammonium-sulfate leach tests. The tests yielded leachate with high grades of magnet rare earth elements \(Nd, Pr, Dy, Tb\) and no uranium contamination.

Reasoning: The announcement confirms the presence of high-value magnet rare earths via ionic-adsorption leaching, which is a key economic driver for this deposit type, and specifically notes the absence of uranium.

- Positive factor: confirmation of ionic-adsorption behaviour

- Positive factor: high-value magnet rare earth grades in leachate

- Positive factor: absence of uranium contaminants

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**Free Milling**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Simple, clean ore amenable to standard processing without oxidation.

Why it applies: The confirmation of ionic-adsorption behavior suggests the metals are easily recoverable via leaching.

uranium

#### Identity

- Commodity: uranium
- Ticker: NPK

#### Test Work

- Program Status: preliminary
- Test Type: leach tests
- Processing Route: ammonium-sulfate leach

## 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.
