## Minestarters Atlas summary

Clean Energy Transition Inc. has filed a NI 43-101 technical report supporting an updated Indicated Mineral Resource for the Aurora Nickel Project in Ontario. The resource totals 10.06 million tonnes at 0.42% nickel, split between the Aurora North \(open pit\) and Aurora South \(underground\) deposits.

Reasoning: The company has formally filed a technical report supporting an updated Indicated Mineral Resource for the Aurora Nickel Project, providing geological confidence for both open-pit and underground targets.

- Positive factor: Updated Mineral Resource Estimate filed via NI 43-101 technical report

- Positive factor: Indicated resource established for both Aurora North and Aurora South deposits

- Positive factor: Qualified Persons \(Charley Murahwi and Chitrali Sarkar\) named and sign-off provided

- Negative factor: Low nickel grade \(0.42% Ni\) for the total resource

Facts used in scoring: 3

## 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.
