## Minestarters Atlas summary

Resouro Strategic Metals Inc. has filed a NI 43-101 Technical Report and PEA for the Tiros Project in Brazil. The study supports a staged development strategy starting with a high-grade 500,000 tpa operation, projecting an after-tax NPV of US$714.9 million and an IRR of 44.2%.

Reasoning: The document files a NI 43-101 Technical Report supporting a previously announced PEA. While the economics are strong, the report is a formalization of a preliminary study and notes high reagent cost sensitivity.

- Positive factor: Strong project economics \(44.2% IRR\)

- Positive factor: Staged development strategy reduces upfront capital

- Positive factor: High-grade starter operation targets &lt;1% of M&amp;I resource

- Positive factor: Established mining jurisdiction

- Negative factor: PEA is preliminary and conceptual

- Negative factor: High sensitivity to reagent costs \(86% of OPEX\)

- Negative factor: Inferred resources used in production target

Facts used in scoring: 3

## Classification and evidence

**PEA Only**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Only Class 4 / Initial Assessment economics available. Not bankable.

Why it applies: The report is a Preliminary Economic Assessment \(PEA\) and is explicitly described as preliminary in nature.

Evidence · text

> The PEA is preliminary in nature.

**High IRR**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Post-tax real unlevered IRR in the strong tier or better.

Why it applies: The reported after-tax IRR of 44.2% is in the strong tier.

Evidence · text

> after-tax internal rate of return of 44.2%

**Fast Payback**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Payback in the strong tier or better, on the required basis.

Why it applies: The payback period of 1.9 years is in the strong tier.

Evidence · text

> after-tax payback period of 1.9 years

**Resource Update**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Revised estimate for an existing resource — compare to prior to assess progress.

Why it applies: The document provides a detailed Mineral Resource Estimate table.

Evidence · text

> Appendix A – Mineral Resource Estimate

#### Tags used in scoring

**Indicated Resource**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Reasonable geological confidence based on adequate drilling; continuity can be assumed. Basis for Probable Reserves.

Why it applies: category is "indicated"

## 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.
