The results, obtained via handheld LIBS, reinforce the company's model of a near-surface clay deposit with open pit potential. Reasoning: The program confirms high-grade lithium surface samples using handheld LIBS, supporting the project's clay deposit model, though results are from surface sampling and screening-level technology. - Positive factor: high-grade lithium surface samples - Positive factor: QA/QC protocols disclosed - Positive factor: QP sign-off provided - Negative factor: surface sampling only - Negative factor: HH LIBS method is screening-level Facts used in scoring: 9 ## 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 includes QA/QC protocols for the HH LIBS analyzer, including calibration and controlled environment testing. Evidence · text > The QA/QC protocols for the LIBs are as follows **QP/CP Signed** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: Qualified Person \(QP\) or Competent Person \(CP\) named and signed off — a member of a recognized professional association \(e.g., AusIMM, SME, AIG, P.Geo\) with relevant experience. Why it applies: Technical information has been approved by David White, P.Geo., QP.
