## Minestarters Atlas summary

Thesis Gold has filed its 2025 Pre-Feasibility Study \(PFS\) for the Lawyers-Ranch gold-silver project in British Columbia. The study reports a maiden mineral reserve of 76.16 million tonnes at 0.97 g/t Au and 28 g/t Ag, featuring strong economics with a 54.4% after-tax IRR and an NPV5% of $2.37 billion.

Reasoning: The filing of a Pre-Feasibility Study \(PFS\) that establishes a maiden mineral reserve with robust economics is a major project de-risking milestone.

- Positive factor: Strong economics with 54.4% after-tax IRR

- Positive factor: Maiden Mineral Reserve statement established

- Positive factor: Low AISC of US$1,185 per AuEq ounce

- Positive factor: Significant silver revenue contribution \(23%\)

Facts used in scoring: 2

## Classification and evidence

**Probable Reserve**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Indicated Resource with demonstrated economic viability after applying modifying factors.

Why it applies: The document reports a maiden mineral reserve statement.

Evidence · text

> Mineral Reserve: Maiden Mineral Reserve statement with 76.16 million tonnes

**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 report establishes the first formal mineral reserve for the project.

Evidence · text

> Maiden Mineral Reserve statement

**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: Michael Dufresne, P.Geo., is named as the Qualified Person who reviewed and approved the content.

Evidence · text

> reviewed and approved by Michael Dufresne, M.Sc, P.Geol., P.Geo., a non-independent Qualified Person

## 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.
