## Minestarters Atlas summary

Corvus Gold has filed an NI 43-101 compliant Preliminary Economic Assessment \(PEA\) for its North Bullfrog Project in Nevada, highlighting strong economics with a post-tax NPV\(5%\) of US$246M and an IRR of 38% at a US$1,200 gold price. The report details an updated mineral resource estimate, showing a significant increase in Measured &amp; Indicated confidence for the YellowJacket deposit, with average gold recoveries of 86.8% for mill processing and 73.9% for heap leaching. The PEA projects a low life-of-mine cash cost of US$635/oz gold.

Reasoning: The PEA and updated resource estimate demonstrate strong economic potential for the North Bullfrog Project with robust financial metrics, improved resource confidence, and favorable metallurgical recoveries for gold, despite the preliminary nature of the study and low silver heap leach recovery.

- Positive factor: Strong project economics demonstrated by PEA with high IRR and NPV at $1,200 gold price.

- Positive factor: Low projected life-of-mine cash costs of US$635/oz Au.

- Positive factor: Significant increase in Measured &amp; Indicated resource confidence for the YellowJacket deposit \(91% M&amp;I up from &lt;20%\).

- Positive factor: High gold recoveries for both mill \(86.8%\) and heap leach \(73.9%\) processing routes.

- Positive factor: New resource calculation based on a lower gold price \($1,200 vs $1,300 previously\), indicating robustness.

- Negative factor: PEA is preliminary in nature and based on assumptions that require further evaluation.

- Negative factor: A significant portion of the resource remains in the Inferred category, which is speculative.

- Negative factor: Very low silver recovery for heap leach processing \(6%\).

Context: Average Gold Recovery - Mill

**Heap Leach Route**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Processing via heap leach — lower CAPEX and OPEX, lower recovery expected.

**Bench Scale Only**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Only preliminary bench tests completed — no locked-cycle or pilot work.

Why it applies: Metallurgical recovery estimates are based on 'column leach testing data' and 'composite samples', which are bench-scale tests.

**Multi-Domain Tested**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Variability across ore domains \(oxide, transition, fresh\) has been addressed.

Why it applies: Mill recoveries were estimated from 'two sets of metallurgical composite samples' and heap leach recoveries from '23 column leach tests' from '3 current resource areas', indicating variability testing.

Evidence · text

> A total of six different sample composites were created from PQ core developed in 2013 and 2014 drilling programs, and were tested to characterize the variation of vein and vein stockwork materials.

Reasoning: The 73.9% gold recovery from heap leach processing is a good result for this method, supported by extensive column leach testwork from McClelland Laboratories.

- Positive factor: Good gold recovery for heap leach processing, which typically has lower recoveries.

- Positive factor: Testwork conducted by an independent laboratory \(McClelland Laboratories\).

- Positive factor: Multi-domain variability tested with 23 column leach tests.

- Negative factor: Test scale is bench-scale \(column leach\) rather than pilot scale.

Evidence · table

> 73.9%

Context: Average Gold Recovery – Heap Leach

#### Tags used in scoring

**Heap Leach Route**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Processing via heap leach — lower CAPEX and OPEX, lower recovery expected.

Why it applies: processing\_route matches the heap\_leach signal

**Gravity Route**

Polarity: neutral

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

Why it applies: processing\_route matches the gravity signal

**Low Recovery**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Recovery below the weak band for the commodity and processing route.

Why it applies: 71.4% is below the weak band \(75%\)

Reasoning: The extremely low 6% silver recovery from heap leach processing is a significant negative, suggesting that silver will not be a material byproduct from this processing route.

- Negative factor: Very low silver recovery for heap leach processing, indicating poor extractability for silver via this method.

- Negative factor: Test scale is bench-scale \(column leach\) rather than pilot scale.

## 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.
