## Minestarters Atlas summary

Cosigo Resources has released metallurgical results from Knelson gravity concentration tests on a 60kg bulk sample from the Chicken Coop Conglomerate at the Taraira project. The tests revealed a very low weighted average gold grade of 0.03 g/t Au, though gravity separation was able to concentrate gold into the pan tails.

Reasoning: The bulk sample testing shows extremely low gold grades \(0.03 g/t Au\), which significantly limits the economic potential of the conglomerate layer despite successful gravity separation into tails.

- Positive factor: Gravity concentration demonstrated ability to concentrate gold into pan tails

- Positive factor: Knelson testing conducted on bulk sample

- Negative factor: Very low head grade \(0.03 g/t Au\) makes economic viability questionable

- Negative factor: Low recovery efficiency in the pan concentrate

Facts used in scoring: 3

## Classification and evidence
