## Minestarters Atlas summary

Verde AgriTech has confirmed high-grade, clay-hosted rare earth mineralization from surface in Minas Gerais, Brazil. The best intercept reported is 14.2m at 6,858 ppm TREO, including a high-grade 6.0m sub-interval.

Reasoning: Significant high-grade TREO intercepts \(up to 8,013 ppm\) reported from surface in a new drilling program.

- Positive factor: High-grade intercepts from surface

- Positive factor: Continuous mineralization

- Positive factor: Magnet rare earth profile \(dysprosium\)

Facts used in scoring: 4

## 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: The document does not explicitly mention QA/QC protocols, labs, or QP sign-off.

Evidence · text

> All initial drill holes intersect continuous rare earth mineralization

**No QA/QC Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document.

Why it applies: Release lacks basic QA/QC disclosure regarding lab certification or assay protocols.

Evidence · text

> All initial drill holes intersect continuous rare earth mineralization

## 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.
