The program has completed over 12,000 meters of wide-spaced drilling, revealing broad zones of uranium mineralization, though current grades are derived from gamma logging. Reasoning: Drilling has successfully identified two new uranium targets with significant strike/width potential, though the early-stage nature and reliance on gamma logging limit immediate confidence. - Positive factor: identification of new uranium targets - Positive factor: broad mineralized zones at Namakande - Positive factor: Muntanga North Target 5 remains open along strike and down-dip - Negative factor: grades based on down-hole gamma logging rather than laboratory assays - Negative factor: intercepts at Namakande are generally thin \(<2m\) Facts used in scoring: 4 ## Classification and evidence **No QA/QC Disclosure** Polarity: negative Definition: Release does not disclose QA/QC — lab certification, CP/QP sign-off and assay protocols cannot be checked from this document. Why it applies: The release states grades are estimated from down-hole gamma logging rather than laboratory assays. Evidence · text > Grades are estimated from down-hole gamma logging rather than laboratory assays **Step-Out Extension** Polarity: positive Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit. Why it applies: Drilling identified new uranium zones at Muntanga North and Namakande. Evidence · text > Atomic Eagle's drilling identifies new uranium zones at Muntanga North and Namakande ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 4.
