## Minestarters Atlas summary

IAMGOLD reported its year-end 2025 Mineral Resources and Reserves, showing a 16% increase in Measured and Indicated \(M&amp;I\) gold resources to 31.0 million ounces, driven by resource conversion at Côté Gold and Nelligan, and new acquisitions. However, Proven and Probable \(P&amp;P\) gold reserves decreased by 7% to 9.9 million ounces, primarily due to depletion and grade adjustments at Côté Gold and Essakane, partially offset by increases at Westwood. The update highlights both growth in resource base and challenges in reserve replacement, with some grade dilution noted across key assets.

Reasoning: IAMGOLD reported its annual Mineral Resources and Reserves update, showing a significant increase in Measured and Indicated resources due to resource conversion and acquisitions, but a decrease in Proven and Probable reserves. Several deposits experienced grade declines, some offset by lower cut-off grades, indicating a mixed outcome for the year.

## 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: Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources increased 16% to 31.0 million ounces of gold in 1.0 Bt at 0.94 g/t Au.

Evidence · text

> Measured and Indicated \("M&amp;I"\) Mineral Resources \(100% basis\) increased 16% to 31.0 million ounces of gold in 1.0 Bt at 0.94 g/t Au

**Contained Metal Growth**

Polarity: positive

Definition: True scale improvement — contained metal ounces/tonnes increased vs prior, accounting for both tonnage and grade changes.

Why it applies: Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources increased 16% to 31.0 million ounces of gold.

Evidence · text

> Measured and Indicated \("M&amp;I"\) Mineral Resources \(100% basis\) increased 16% to 31.0 million ounces of gold

**Category Upgrade**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Resource confidence improved — Inferred upgraded to Indicated, or Indicated to Measured. De-risking signal.

Why it applies: The increase in M&amp;I resources was primarily associated with the conversion of Inferred Mineral Resources in the Gosselin deposit at Côté Gold and Nelligan deposit.

Evidence · text

> The increase was primarily associated with the conversion of Inferred Mineral Resources in the Gosselin deposit at Côté Gold and Nelligan deposit

**Tonnage Decline**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Resource tonnage decreased vs prior estimate — pit optimization removed marginal material or geological model revised down.

Why it applies: Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves decreased 7%, or 796,000 ounces, from the year prior, primarily due to depletion at Côté Gold and Essakane.

Evidence · text

> P&amp;P Mineral Reserves decreased 7%, or 796,000 ounces, from the year prior, primarily due to depletion at Côté Gold and Essakane

**Contained Metal Decline**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Contained metal decreased vs prior despite tonnage growth — grade dilution exceeds volume gain.

Why it applies: Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves decreased 7%, or 796,000 ounces, from the year prior.

Evidence · text

> P&amp;P Mineral Reserves decreased 7%, or 796,000 ounces, from the year prior

**Grade Decline**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Average grade fell below the red-flag bound vs prior estimate — deposit economics worsening. May indicate high-grading in early drilling.

Why it applies: Essakane M&amp;I Mineral Resources saw a 26% decrease in grades \(to 0.91 g/t Au, including stockpiles\).

Evidence · text

> a 26% decrease in grades \(to 0.91 g/t Au, including stockpiles\)

**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: Westwood \(underground\) Mineral Reserves cut-off grade was reduced to 6.40 g/t Au \(down from 6.82 g/t Au previously\).

Evidence · text

> reduction in the underground cut-off grade to 6.40 g/t Au \(down from 6.82 g/t Au previously\)

**Dilutive Growth**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Tonnage increased but contained metal flat or down — likely from lower cut-off grade, not geological expansion.

Why it applies: Essakane M&amp;I Mineral Resources increased 50% in tonnes but saw a 26% decrease in grades, indicating a dilutive expansion.

Evidence · text

> a 50% increase in tonnes \(to 150 Mt\) offsetting a 26% decrease in grades \(to 0.91 g/t Au, including stockpiles\)

**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 Resources and Mineral Reserves statement was prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101.

Evidence · text

**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: Christine Beausoleil, P.Geo., and Adrienne Rispoli, P.Eng., are the 'qualified persons' responsible for the estimates.

Evidence · text

> Christine Beausoleil, P.Geo., Senior Director, Mining Geology, IAMGOLD Corporation is the "qualified person" for the purposes of NI 43-101 \("QP"\) with respect to the mineralization being reported on and is responsible for the review and approval of all Mineral Resources estimates for IAMGOLD. Adrienne Rispoli, P.Eng., Senior Director, Mining &amp; Integrated Planning, IAMGOLD Corporation is the QP for the purposes of NI 43-101 with respect to the mineralization being reported on and is responsible for the review and approval of all Mineral Reserves estimates for IAMGOLD.

**Stale Estimate**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Effective date is &gt;2 years old — data currency concern, may not reflect current geological understanding.

Why it applies: The Chevrier Mineral Resources were estimated as of September 23, 2022, and Philibert Mineral Resources as of September 22, 2023, making them over two years old relative to the December 31, 2025 effective date.

**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

**Grade Decline**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Average grade fell below the red-flag bound vs prior estimate — deposit economics worsening. May indicate high-grading in early drilling.

Why it applies: 10.46 against 12.82 previously

**Contained Metal Decline**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Contained metal decreased vs prior despite tonnage growth — grade dilution exceeds volume gain.

Why it applies: 1515 against 1801 previously

**Dilutive Growth**

Polarity: negative

Definition: Tonnage increased but contained metal flat or down — likely from lower cut-off grade, not geological expansion.

Why it applies: tonnage rose while contained metal went 1515 from 1801

## 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.
