## Minestarters Atlas summary

NexMetals reports visual drill results from the Selebi Main deposit in Botswana, highlighting thick intervals of massive sulphide mineralization in the Flexure Zone. While the intercepts demonstrate scale and continuity, formal assay results are still pending.

Reasoning: The release reports significant visual intercepts of massive sulphides that expand a known zone, but lacks actual assay grades to confirm economic value.

- Positive factor: expansion of Flexure Zone

- Positive factor: thick massive sulphide intervals

- Positive factor: consistent with previous high-grade intercepts

- Negative factor: assays pending

- Negative factor: visual results only

Facts used in scoring: 4

## 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 Geochemistry, use of blanks, standards, and duplicates.

Evidence · text

> Sample preparation and lab analysis was completed at ALS Geochemistry

**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: Not applicable as QA/QC is disclosed.

## How Atlas produces this analysis

Minestarters Atlas uses automated extraction to summarize mining announcements, identify reported measurements, and classify supporting evidence. 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.
