## Minestarters Atlas summary

Freeman Gold Corp. provided an update on the Lemhi Gold Project, noting that updated gold price assumptions \($2,200/oz\) have improved the PEA economics to a post-tax NPV of US$329 million and an IRR of 28.2%. The company is currently progressing toward a Feasibility Study expected in Q1 2026, supported by ongoing drilling, metallurgical testing, and permitting activities.

Reasoning: The company provided a comprehensive update on the Lemhi Gold Project, highlighting improved economics from updated gold price assumptions and progress toward a Feasibility Study.

- Positive factor: Updated PEA pricing assumptions significantly improve NPV and IRR

- Positive factor: Feasibility Study \(FS\) currently underway to de-risk project

- Positive factor: Ongoing drilling targeting resource conversion \(Inferred to M&amp;I\)

- Positive factor: Strong metallurgical indicators \(&gt;95% recovery\)

- Negative factor: Economics are based on a PEA which includes speculative Inferred resources

Facts used in scoring: 5

## Classification and evidence

**PFS-Supporting**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Resource estimate prepared to support a Pre-Feasibility Study — requires adequate M&amp;I component.

Why it applies: The company is currently conducting a Feasibility Study \(FS\) to support advanced development.

Evidence · text

> On February 10, 2025, the Company awarded a lump sum Feasibility Study \(" FS "\) of Lemhi to Ausenco.

**NI 43-101 Compliant**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: The mineral resource estimate is explicitly stated as NI 43-101 compliant.

Evidence · text

> The pit constrained National Instrument 43-101 \(" NI 43- 101 "\) compliant mineral resource estimate

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The resource estimate contains a significant Inferred component.

Evidence · text

## 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.
