## Minestarters Atlas summary

Tudor Gold, American Creek's JV partner, has announced positive initial metallurgical results for the high-grade gold Supercell-One \(SC-1\) Complex at the Treaty Creek Project. Testing on SC-1C and SC-1D composites demonstrated gold flotation recoveries of up to 93% and successful whole ore POX extraction exceeding 91%. While a saleable concentrate of 33.6 g/t gold was produced, the cleaner concentrate contains deleterious elements including arsenic and antimony.

Reasoning: Initial metallurgical testing on the new SC-1 complex shows strong gold recovery via flotation and POX, though concentrate quality is impacted by penalty elements.

- Positive factor: High gold flotation recoveries \(85-93%\)

- Positive factor: Successful POX extraction \(&gt;91%\)

- Positive factor: Saleable concentrate grade achieved \(33.6 g/t Au\)

- Positive factor: Demonstrated economic potential for a 'mine within a mine' concept

- Negative factor: Presence of deleterious elements \(arsenic, antimony, bismuth, mercury\) in concentrate

- Negative factor: Significant gold locked in sulphides \(42%\) requiring more complex processing

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**Mill Route**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Processing via mill or concentrator \(CIL, CIP, tank leach, flotation\).

Why it applies: Testing involved flotation and cyanide leach processes.

Evidence · text

> achieving impressive recovery rates of 91-93% at the rougher stage with a primary grind of 75 microns

**POX/BIOX Route**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Pressure or bio-oxidation for refractory ore — high CAPEX and OPEX.

Why it applies: Whole ore pressure oxidation \(POX\) was tested and performed well.

Evidence · text

> Whole ore POX performed well, yielding over 91% gold extraction

**Deleterious Elements Present**

Polarity: negative

Story-specific tag

Definition: A source-stated penalty, refractory or recovery concern in the fact's scope. Element detection alone, including measured elements explicitly below penalty thresholds, does not trigger this tag. Respect negation and retain a separately stated concern even when another risk is explicitly absent.

Why it applies: The cleaner concentrate contains arsenic, antimony, bismuth, and mercury.

Evidence · text

> the cleaner concentrate contains some deleterious elements such as 0.8% arsenic, 0.3% antimony, 0.005% bismuth, and 0.04% mercury

**Gravity Route**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Gravity separation forms a material part of the flowsheet.

Why it applies: the document describes a gravity route \("gravity"\)

**Single Domain Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Testing limited to one composite or domain — representativeness not established.

Why it applies: only one composite was tested

## 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.
