The program targets graphite extensions and metallurgical sampling, while a new mining lease application has been lodged to include the 'Gap Zone' mineralisation. Reasoning: The announcement reports the commencement of a funded drilling program and a new mining lease application to expand a known resource, though actual new assay results are not yet provided. - Positive factor: Fully funded drilling program via government grant - Positive factor: Expansion of mining lease to include Gap Zone - Positive factor: Strategic location near existing copper-gold developments - Negative factor: Drilling results are pending \(expected late January\) 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: The release mentions a JORC 2012 Mineral Resource Estimate and a Qualified Person \(Paul Sarjeant, P. Geo\) sign-off. Evidence · text > Qualified Person Mr. Paul Sarjeant, P. Geo., is the qualified person for this release **Infill Drilling** Polarity: neutral Definition: Confirmatory drilling to raise resource confidence, not new discovery. Why it applies: The program targets extensions to previously announced results and metallurgical sampling near the existing MRE. Evidence · text > targeting high grade graphite extensions and metallurgical samples ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 9. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (6) ### Q-001 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/global-energy-metals-partner-metal-bank-ltd-commences-fully-funded-drilling-prog--1f8e7f03-b60b-40d7-b88f-ccd9bad446c8#fact-drill-facts-3) Millennium · copper Historical result Needs review: historical\_restatement #### Identity - Hole ID: Q-001 - Project: Millennium - Commodity: copper - Region: australia\_qld - Reported Region: australia\_qld - Ticker: GEMC #### Geometry - Grade: 0.48 - Grade Unit: % - Intercept: 23 m - From: 16 m - To: 39 m - Intercept Depth: 16 m #### Classification - Sample Type: drill - Group ID: Q-001:16-39 #### QA/QC - QA/QC Methods: standards #### Review - Needs Review: Yes - Review Reason: historical\_restatement - Interp.
