# Bitterroot Resources Intersects High Nickel Grades in Massive Sulphide Mineralization Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/bitterroot-resources-intersects-high-nickel-grades-in-massive-sulphide-mineraliz--29624978-efe2-4f47-a503-e8176df5eedf Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/BTT/news/6063392492920165/bitterroot-resources-intersects-high-nickel-grades-in-massive-sulphide-mineraliz Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2021-10-13T13:00:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Bitterroot Resources Ltd. - Ticker: BTT - Exchange: TSX - Region: Michigan - Primary commodity: Nickel - Secondary commodities: Copper, Gold, Platinum, Palladium - Document categories: Drill results - Extracted: 2026-08-23 03:03:18 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.60 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Bitterroot Resources has reported high-grade nickel and copper intercepts from holes LM 21-13 and LM 21-14 at the LM Project in Michigan. The results confirm the presence of massive and semi-massive sulphides enriched in nickel and copper. Reasoning: The release reports high-grade nickel \(4.81%\) in massive sulphides, which is strong for a nickel project, though true widths are not yet determined. - Positive factor: High nickel grades in massive sulphide - Positive factor: QA/QC disclosed - Positive factor: Continuous mineralization - Negative factor: Apparent width only Facts used in scoring: 12 ## Classification and evidence **QA/QC Disclosed** Polarity: positive Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\). Why it applies: Release mentions ALS Canada Ltd. used ISO 17025-certified laboratory and used standards and blanks. Evidence · text > ALS is a global leader in analytical services. The samples were analyzed at ALS's secure, ISO 17025-certified laboratory **Apparent Width Only** Polarity: negative Definition: Interval given as downhole width with no true width or drill orientation — apparent width may overstate true thickness. Why it applies: True widths cannot be calculated due to insufficient information on orientation. Evidence · text > True widths cannot be calculated at this time due to insufficient information on the orientation of the mineralized zones. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 12.

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.
