These results represent the highest grade intervals reported to date for the project and are part of an infill program to support resource classification. Reasoning: The release reports the highest grade nickel intercepts to date \(1.01% Ni\) at the Reid project, which is significantly above the project average of 0.613% Ni. The drilling is part of an infill program intended to upgrade resource categories. - Positive factor: Highest grade nickel intervals reported to date - Positive factor: Significant thickness of mineralization - Positive factor: QA/QC protocols clearly disclosed - Positive factor: Infill drilling supporting resource conversion - Negative factor: True width undetermined for reported intervals Facts used in scoring: 36 ## Classification and evidence No classification tags are available. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 36. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (36) ### REI26-90B [Link to this fact](https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/canada-nickel-reports-additional-exploration-drilling-results-and-highest-grade--e181a30e-a0ed-47a6-96e4-1c8ef2c83860#fact-drill-facts-0) Reid Nickel Sulphide Project · nickel #### Identity - Hole ID: REI26-90B - Project: Reid Nickel Sulphide Project - Commodity: nickel - Region: canada\_on - Reported Region: Ontario - Ticker: CNC #### Geometry - Grade: 0.26 - Grade Unit: % - Intercept: 801.4 m - From: 41.6 m - To: 843 m #### Classification - Program: resource - Sample Type: drill - Group ID: REI26-90B:41.6-843.0 #### QA/QC - Laboratory: Actlabs Timmins - QA/QC Disclosed: Yes - Lab Certified: Yes - QP Signed: Yes - QA/QC Methods: standards, blanks #### Review - Needs Review: No - Interp.
