## Minestarters Atlas summary

Fortuna Mining Corp. announced a 15% year-over-year increase in consolidated Mineral Reserves and a 56% increase in Measured and Indicated Resources. This growth was primarily driven by successful infill and exploration drilling at the Séguéla Mine in Côte d’Ivoire, which saw a 34% increase in underground Mineral Reserves, and the Diamba Sud Project in Senegal, where Indicated Resources grew by 165%. The company also provided updated estimates for its Lindero and Caylloma operations, noting some depletion and grade changes.

Reasoning: Fortuna Mining Corp. reported a substantial increase in consolidated Mineral Reserves and Measured &amp; Indicated Resources, driven by successful drilling at Séguéla and Diamba Sud, which significantly de-risks and expands the company's asset base. While some projects experienced depletion or grade dilution, the overall growth and resource conversion are highly positive. The estimates are compliant with NI 43-101 and supported by Qualified Persons, enhancing confidence.

- Positive factor: Significant year-over-year increase in consolidated Mineral Reserves \(15%\) and Measured &amp; Indicated Resources \(56%\)

- Positive factor: Strong growth in Séguéla's underground Mineral Reserves \(34%\) and Inferred Mineral Resources \(55%\) due to successful drilling

- Positive factor: Exceptional growth in Diamba Sud's Indicated Mineral Resources \(165%\) driven by infill and exploration drilling

- Positive factor: Resource upgrading to reserves, particularly at Séguéla, contributing to overall reserve growth

- Positive factor: Estimates are NI 43-101 compliant and signed off by Qualified Persons

- Positive factor: Metal equivalent assumptions are clearly disclosed

- Negative factor: Lindero Mine Mineral Reserves decreased due to production depletion

- Negative factor: Caylloma Mine Mineral Reserves and Resources were negatively impacted by production depletion and changes in metal price ratios

- Negative factor: Séguéla's Proven and Probable gold grade decreased slightly despite tonnage growth

- Negative factor: Diamba Sud's Inferred Mineral Resources decreased due to upgrading to higher confidence categories, indicating a shift rather than pure growth

- Negative factor: Caylloma reports variable and sometimes low metallurgical recovery rates for gold \(21% or 58%\)

Low confidence — this extraction should be reviewed alongside the original source.

**Maiden Resource**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: First formal MRE for the project — establishes baseline but typically exploration-stage with high Inferred component. No prior estimate exists, so every change band is not applicable.

Reasoning: The consolidated Inferred GEOs show a modest year-over-year increase, indicating continued exploration success, though in a lower confidence category.

- Positive factor: Represents a 4% year-over-year increase in consolidated Inferred Mineral Resources \(GEOs\)

- Positive factor: Significant contained gold equivalent ounces

- Negative factor: Inferred category has lower geological confidence

#### Tags used in scoring

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Speculative category — limited drilling, geological continuity assumed but not confirmed. Cannot support economic studies alone.

Why it applies: category is "inferred"

**Cut-off Undisclosed**

Polarity: negative

Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing.

Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated

**QP/CP Signed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience.

Why it applies: qp\_signed is true

**NI 43-101 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource estimate prepared in compliance with NI 43-101 \(Canada\) — high reporting standard.

Why it applies: reporting\_standards includes ni\_43\_101

## 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.
