Governance

Technical Standards & Transparency

Commitment to transparency, technical rigor and socio-environmental responsibility.

Our commitment

Governance grounded in science, ethics and transparency

Sozo Terra Insights is advancing a mineral exploration project in Minas Gerais. Public information should distinguish exploration work and technical validation from a declared resource, mineral reserve, permit or commercial production.

Technical, environmental and regulatory matters remain subject to ongoing validation and applicable approvals as the project develops.

Compliance

Governance pillars

Three fronts that sustain our operations

NI 43-101 Disclosure Standard

Canadian standard for disclosure of technical information on mineral projects. Its mention does not mean Sozo has completed certification or published a mineral resource.

SRK Consulting — Agreed Scope

SRK Consulting supports a resource-definition pathway within the agreed technical scope; this does not represent a completed audit or certification.

ESG & Responsibility

Good field safety practices, environmental management and relationships with local communities.

Technical disclosure standard

NI 43-101 Technical Scope

NI 43-101 (National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects) is the Canadian regulatory standard that defines how technical information from mineral projects must be disclosed to the market. It is recognized by exchanges, investors and regulators worldwide as a credibility benchmark.

Sozo's technical work is aligned with NI 43-101 within the agreed scope. NI 43-101 is a disclosure standard, not a certification granted to Sozo; no completed certification or published mineral resource is represented here.

Resource-definition pathway

SRK Consulting supports this work within the agreed technical scope.

Technical validation

Sampling, laboratory and metallurgical work inform the ongoing technical assessment.

Disclosure status

No mineral resource or mineral reserve has been published or declared for the project.

ESG

Sustainability & Community

The project is in the surroundings of Serra do Brigadeiro State Park, an area of environmental importance. Exploration planning considers local environmental sensitivities and applicable authorizations; activities remain subject to relevant requirements.

ESG

Environmental

Environmental conditions and applicable authorizations are considered as exploration activities are planned.

Social

Community engagement and local service opportunities are considered in project planning.

Governance

Governance includes tracking applicable requirements and communicating project status accurately.

Titles and approvals

Mineral rights and regulatory status

Mining-title status is specific to each proceeding and should be confirmed in official ANM records. Mineral rights are distinct from surface ownership. Environmental permits and other authorizations depend on the activity and project phase; this page does not claim full regulatory compliance or a fully licensed mine.

Transparency is part of our value proposition

Investors, institutional partners and press can request detailed technical information about the project.
