# Altair Reports Overlimit High Grade Zinc Assays from Initial Drill Hole, Crepulje Project, Mitrovica District, Kosovo Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/altair-reports-overlimit-high-grade-zinc-assays-from-initial-drill-hole-crepulje--4212f3ab-761d-438c-8aa2-c28bdbebcac8 Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/AVX/news/7445633121664107/altair-reports-overlimit-high-grade-zinc-assays-from-initial-drill-hole-crepulje Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2017-06-09T12:30:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Altair Resources Inc. - Ticker: AVX - Exchange: TSX - Region: Kosovo - Primary commodity: Zinc - Secondary commodities: Lead - Document categories: Drill results - Extracted: 2026-09-19 17:34:57 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.80 · Bullish ## Minestarters Atlas summary Altair Resources Inc. has reported restated high-grade zinc and lead assays from diamond drilling at the Crepulje Project in Kosovo. Hole CRP 008 intersected two oxidized zinc zones, including an 8.5m interval at 28.88% Zn and 1.53% Pb. Reasoning: The release reports high-grade zinc and lead intercepts from restated assays of hole CRP 008, confirming previous high-grade surface trenching results. - Positive factor: High grade zinc intercepts - Positive factor: QA/QC disclosed - Positive factor: QP sign-off - Negative factor: Apparent width only Facts used in scoring: 8 ## Classification and evidence **Bonanza Intercept** Polarity: positive Definition: Exceptionally high-grade zone, well above the deposit-type norm. Why it applies: Zinc grades of 28.88% and 29.45% are exceptionally high for a zinc deposit. Evidence · text > 28.88 % zinc **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: The document explicitly states that true thickness cannot be established because the attitude of the mineralization is unknown. Evidence · text > true thickness of the zones cannot be established as the attitude of the mineralization is not known **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: The release mentions the use of internal standards and blanks for quality control and names an accredited lab \(ALS\). Evidence · text > Internal standards and blanks are routinely inserted by the Company for Quality Control **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: The technical information was reviewed and approved by a Qualified Person, Dr. Stewart A. Jackson. Evidence · text > reviewed and approved by Dr. Stewart A. Jackson PGeo., a Qualified Person ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 8.

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.
