## Minestarters Atlas summary

NexMetals reports visual drill results from the Selebi Main deposit in Botswana, highlighting a 11.15 metre interval of massive sulphides in hole SMD-26-212-W1. The results suggest expansion of the Flexure Zone, with assays currently pending.

Reasoning: The release reports significant visual intercepts of massive sulphides that expand a known zone, though actual assay grades are not yet available to confirm economic value.

- Positive factor: massive sulphide mineralization

- Positive factor: expansion of Flexure Zone

- Positive factor: wide drill spacing continuity

- Negative factor: assays pending

- Negative factor: visual results only

Facts used in scoring: 4

## Classification and evidence

**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: While the release mentions QA/QC protocols, the actual assay results for these specific holes are pending, meaning the quality of the upcoming data cannot yet be verified.

Evidence · text

> Assays are pending and will be reported once received and validated.

**Step-Out Extension**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: SMD-26-210 is described as a 225-metre northward step-out from SMD-25-205.

Evidence · text

> This hole is a 225-metre northward step-out from SMD-25-205

## 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.
