## Minestarters Atlas summary

Latitude 66 released a scoping study for its KSB gold-cobalt project in northern Finland, projecting a highly economic standalone mine. The project features a resource of 7.3Mt at 2.7g/t Au and 0.08% Co, with significant NPV and IRR under base case scenarios.

Reasoning: Scoping study for KSB project outlines a highly economic gold-cobalt resource with strong financial metrics.

- Positive factor: high NPV and IRR

- Positive factor: standalone economic potential

- Positive factor: low AISC

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**Maiden Resource**

Polarity: neutral

Story-specific tag

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 scoping study outlines the potential of the KSB project, establishing a baseline resource.

#### 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

**No QP/CP Disclosure**

Polarity: negative

Definition: No Qualified Person or Competent Person named — lower credibility for the estimate. A QP/CP should be a member of a recognized professional association with relevant experience.

Why it applies: no Qualified or Competent Person is named anywhere in the release

**PEA-Supporting**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Resource estimate prepared to support a Preliminary Economic Assessment — early-stage study.

Why it applies: the release names the study this estimate supports

**DFS-Supporting**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Resource estimate prepared to support a Definitive Feasibility Study — requires high M&amp;I confidence.

Why it applies: the release names the study this estimate supports

## 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.
