# CleanTech Expects to Submit Campbell-Crotser Fluorspar Mine Permit by Year End at Kentucky Fluorspar District Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/cleantech-expects-to-submit-campbell-crotser-fluorspar-mine-permit-by-year-end-a--37f423d2-a4d0-41ad-a1f6-5d360c4582d6 Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/CTV/news/6111847925587870/cleantech-expects-to-submit-campbell-crotser-fluorspar-mine-permit-by-year-end-a Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2026-07-06T14:59:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: CleanTech Vanadium Mining Corp. - Ticker: CTV - Exchange: TSX - Region: Kentucky - Primary commodity: Fluorspar - Secondary commodities: Zinc, Lead - Document categories: Resource update, Permitting - Extracted: 2026-09-15 18:37:44 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.30 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary CleanTech outlines its permitting strategy for the Campbell-Crotser Fluorspar Project in Kentucky, targeting permit submission by late 2026. The company also restates a historical 1974 resource estimate, noting its limited reliability due to lack of modern QA/QC and CIM compliance. Reasoning: The company provides a regulatory roadmap for its fluorspar project and restates a highly uncertain 1974 historical resource estimate. - Positive factor: Permitting roadmap outlined - Positive factor: Strategic importance of fluorspar for semiconductors and nuclear energy - Positive factor: Planned drill program to verify historical resources - Negative factor: Historical resource estimate is non-compliant and of limited reliability - Negative factor: No modern QA/QC disclosure for historical data - Negative factor: Permit issuance not expected until 2028 Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source. Facts used in scoring: 6 ## Classification and evidence **Historical Estimate Only** Polarity: negative Definition: Estimate pre-dates or does not comply with current JORC/NI 43-101 standards — requires verification drilling. Why it applies: The resource estimate provided is from 1974 and does not comply with current CIM standards. Evidence · text > The Historical Estimate is presented using the historical category terminology of the source report, which predates and does not conform to the current CIM Definition Standards **No QA/QC Disclosure** Polarity: negative Story-specific tag 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: The company explicitly states that the historical drill core and assay records have not been independently verified. Evidence · text > The drill core, assay records and underlying geological data have not been independently verified by the Company ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 6. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Resource Estimates (6) ### indicated [Link to this fact](https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/cleantech-expects-to-submit-campbell-crotser-fluorspar-mine-permit-by-year-end-a--37f423d2-a4d0-41ad-a1f6-5d360c4582d6#fact-resource-facts-0) Campbell-Crotser · fluorspar Historical result Needs review: historical\_restatement #### Identity - Project: Campbell-Crotser - Commodity: fluorspar - Region: kentucky - Reported Region: Kentucky - Ticker: CTV #### Resource scope - Estimate type: resource - Reporting standards: other - Resource group id: resource:8d71f51a0cddeb703e05 - Deposit or zone: Campbell-Crotser #### Resource Data - Category: indicated - Tonnes: 645117 - Grade: 37.38 - Grade Unit: %CaF2 #### Review - Needs Review: Yes - Review Reason: historical\_restatement - Historical: Yes - Historical Source Date: 1974-01-01T00:00:00.000Z #### Dates - Event date: 2026-07-06T00:00:00.000Z Reasoning: Restatement of a 1974 estimate that predates modern standards and lacks independent verification. - Negative factor: Non-compliant with CIM standards - Negative factor: No QA/QC disclosure - Negative factor: Historical data unverified Evidence · table > 37.38 Context: 645,117 #### Tags used in scoring **Indicated Resource** Polarity: positive Definition: Reasonable geological confidence based on adequate drilling; continuity can be assumed.

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.
