## Minestarters Atlas summary

Golden Arrow Resources announced its maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for the San Pietro Copper-Gold-Iron-Cobalt Project in Chile, reporting 492 million tonnes at an average grade of 0.23% Cu, 0.05 g/t Au, 14.43% Fe, and 99 ppm Co in the Inferred category. This initial pit-constrained estimate includes 2.5 billion pounds of copper and 770,000 ounces of gold, establishing a significant resource base for the project. The company plans further drilling to upgrade resource categories and undertake project-specific metallurgical testwork.

Reasoning: Golden Arrow announced its initial pit-constrained Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate for the San Pietro project, totaling 492 Mt at 0.23% Cu, 0.05 g/t Au, 14.43% Fe, and 99 ppm Co, which establishes a significant baseline but is entirely in the lowest confidence category.

- Positive factor: Maiden Resource

- Positive factor: Large Tonnage

- Positive factor: Pit-Constrained

- Positive factor: Multi-Commodity

- Positive factor: NI 43-101 Compliant

- Positive factor: QP-Signed

- Negative factor: 100% Inferred Category

- Negative factor: Relatively Low Grades for Copper and Gold

- Negative factor: Metallurgical Recoveries Assumed

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

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**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.

Why it applies: This is the first mineral resource estimate announced for the San Pietro project.

Evidence · text

> first mineral resource estimate \("MRE"\) for the San Pietro Copper-Gold-Iron-Cobalt Project

**Inferred Resource**

Polarity: negative

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

Why it applies: The entire resource estimate is classified in the Inferred category.

Evidence · text

> 492 million tonnes at an average grade of 0.23% Cu, 0.05 g/t Au, 14.43% Fe &amp; 99 ppm Co in the Inferred category

**All Inferred**

Polarity: negative

Definition: M&amp;I share below the weak bound — very early stage, no engineering confidence.

Why it applies: The resource estimate reports 100% of its tonnage in the Inferred category, indicating an early stage of confidence.

Evidence · text

> 492 million tonnes at an average grade of 0.23% Cu, 0.05 g/t Au, 14.43% Fe &amp; 99 ppm Co in the Inferred category

**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 prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

Evidence · text

> independent technical report prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects \("NI 43-101"\)

**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: The Mineral Resource Estimate was prepared under the direction of Susan Lomas, P.Geo., and Bruce Davis Ph.D., F.AusIMM, both independent Qualified Persons.

Evidence · text

> The Mineral Resource Estimate and technical data in this news release were prepared under the direction of Susan Lomas , P.Geo., of Lions Gate Geological Consulting Inc. and Bruce Davis Ph.D., F.AusIMM, Consultant. Both Ms. Lomas and Dr. Davis are independent Qualified Persons as defined in NI 43-101.

**Cut-off Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Cut-off grade used for resource reporting is clearly stated, enabling like-for-like comparison.

Why it applies: The resource is reported using a 0.30% CuEq cutoff grade.

## 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.
