## Minestarters Atlas summary

Granada Gold has announced an updated 2026 Mineral Resource Estimate for its Granada Gold Project in Quebec, showing a 64% increase in Measured and Indicated resources to 890,600 oz Au and a 90% increase in Inferred resources to 865,500 oz Au. The growth is largely attributed to the higher gold price environment supporting lower economic cut-off grades.

Reasoning: The update shows substantial growth in both tonnage and contained gold ounces across all categories, primarily driven by the higher gold price allowing for lower cut-off grades.

- Positive factor: Significant tonnage growth in M&amp;I \(+64%\) and Inferred \(+90%\)

- Positive factor: Contained metal growth driven by higher gold price environment

- Positive factor: QP/CP sign-off provided by Claude Duplessis, P.Eng.

- Positive factor: Cut-off grades lowered to capture more material at current prices

- Positive factor: Deposit remains open along strike and at depth

- Negative factor: Average grade declined due to lower cut-off grades

- Negative factor: Resource is not yet a reserve

Facts used in scoring: 5

## Classification and evidence

**Tonnage Growth**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Tonnage increase reaching the strong tier vs prior estimate, with grade maintained or improved.

Why it applies: M&amp;I tonnage increased by 64% and Inferred by 90% compared to the 2022 estimate.

Evidence · text

> 64% increase in Measured and Indicated contained gold and a 90% increase in Inferred contained gold

**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: Claude Duplessis, P.Eng. of GoldMinds Geoservices Inc. is named as the independent Qualified Person.

Evidence · text

> prepared by Claude Duplessis, ing. \(P.Eng.\), of GoldMinds Geoservices Inc., an independent Qualified Person

**Cut-off Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

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

Why it applies: Cut-off grades for in-pit \(0.25 g/t Au\) and underground \(1.4 g/t Au\) are clearly stated.

Evidence · text

> Pit-constrained resources reported at a 0.25 g/t Au cut-off; underground resources at a 1.4 g/t Au cut-off.

**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: The project is an update to a 2022 estimate, not a maiden resource.

Evidence · text

> re-evaluates the independent SGS Canada Inc. block model that supported the Company’s 2022 estimate

#### Review

#### Dates

- Event date: 2026-06-23T00:00:00.000Z

Reasoning: Explicit resource disclosure recovered from source prose.

Evidence · text

> As expected, when a deposit is re-evaluated at a materially higher gold price, the average grade of the reported resource is lower than in 2022, because lower-grade material that was previously below the cut-off grades applied in 2022 is captured within the reported resource at the lower cut-off grades applied in 2026.

#### Tags used in scoring

**Cut-off Lowered**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Cut-off grade reduced beyond the suspicious bound vs prior estimate — tonnage growth may be artificial inflation.

Why it applies: As expected, when a deposit is re-evaluated at a materially higher gold price, the average grade of the reported resource is lower than in 2022, because lower-grade material that was previously below the cut-off grades applied in 2022 is captured within the reported resource at the lower cut-off grades applied in 2026.

Context: Noranda, Quebec

**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

**No Contained Metal**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Tonnage and grade reported but contained metal not calculated or disclosed — incomplete reporting.

Why it applies: contained\_metal was not reported

## 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.
