An early-stage Latin American project dies far more often from a defective title, a missing easement or environmental inadmissibility than from an error in the resource estimate.
Your technical report is signed by a Competent Person and answers for the resource. It does not answer for the title, the easement, the water, or whether the mine plan is environmentally admissible as written.
That is correct: a Competent Person signs for the resource and nothing else. The problem is that in most junior companies, everything else is not in anyone's scope either.
That analysis does not require being a Competent Person. It requires being a lawyer and knowing how the agencies behave.
Validity, overlaps, encumbrances, and who else holds rights over the same ground.
Whether the project can physically reach where it has to reach.
What is constituted, what is missing, and what is realistically obtainable.
As described in the study, not as one would wish it were.
In the area of influence, with the status of any prior process.
The one carried in the technical report itself, benchmarked against filing reality.
Fixed, closed price with no hourly billing. Guaranteed turnaround from receipt of complete background material. The full value of the package is credited against the following mandate if you engage us within six months. Delivered as a signed document plus a 60-minute presentation session.
Junior companies, funds and buyers that already have the technical report and have nothing to test the rest against.
We can coordinate the full early-stage package with an independent Competent Person and valuator.
Estribor does not sign NI 43-101, JORC or CH 20235 technical reports, and does not issue CIMVAL or VALMIN valuations. That work belongs to the Competent Person registered with Chile's Comisión Minera. We coordinate with them and contractually exclude our liability for technical content.
Nine in all. Clients usually start with the one that unblocks the next decision, not with the biggest one.
US$13,000 · 4 weeks. Headcount by phase, the critical profile gaps, the accredited training providers and the subsidy cut-off that decides when to start.
By proposal · 4 weeks. From diagnosis to text that can be published, for ministries, agencies and multilaterals. Entry is as an individual consultant, not as a firm.
From US$18,000 · 3 weeks. Whether the asset is executable before you sign: regulatory risk matrix, a permitting schedule that survives an investment committee, and the counterparty map.
Cultural gaps and different regulatory frameworks are tremendously intimidating when investing in an unknown jurisdiction. Sound professional support provides an edge.
