Why it applies: qaqc\_disclosed is true **Cut-off Undisclosed** Polarity: negative Definition: High-grade interval reported without stating the cut-off grade used for compositing. Why it applies: no cutoff\_grade was stated **Stale Data Re-release** Polarity: negative Definition: Historical results re-announced with no new assays or reinterpretation — low genuine novelty. Why it applies: the fact restates a prior release ### Fact 18 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-staging.minestarters.com/news/morocco-strategic-minerals-reports-new-gold-mineralization-north-of-a-xef-t-zekr--5b8b5376-f2ac-4bf6-9de3-536f6f7f9c38#fact-drill-facts-17) Aït Zekri · gold Historical result Needs review: drill\_no\_hole\_id #### Identity - Project: Aït Zekri - Commodity: gold - Ticker: MCC #### Geometry - Grade: 0.86 - Grade Unit: g/t - Intercept: 6.3 m - From: 52 m - To: 58.3 m - Intercept Depth: 52 m #### Classification - Sample Type: drill - Group ID: Aït\_Zekri:52-58.3 #### Location - Location: Aït Zekri - Loc.

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.
