# Xander Resources Completes Second Phase of Drilling Program for Timmins Nickel Project Canonical Atlas analysis: https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/xander-resources-completes-second-phase-of-drilling-program-for-timmins-nickel-p--c07d41d5-0d24-4d72-a700-172bbd9a8631 Original source: https://money.tmx.com/en/quote/CCMC/news/7897240785702107/xander-resources-completes-second-phase-of-drilling-program-for-timmins-nickel-p Publisher: tmx Original announcement: 2023-03-20T11:00:00.000Z Analysis by Minestarters Atlas Atlas analysis published: Unknown date Atlas analysis updated: Unknown date - Company: Xander Resources Inc. - Ticker: XND - Exchange: TSX - Region: Ontario - Primary commodity: Nickel - Secondary commodities: None reported - Document categories: Drill results, Other - Extracted: 2026-09-17 15:47:52 UTC Narrative sentiment: 0.00 · Neutral ## Minestarters Atlas summary Xander Resources has completed the second phase of its drilling program at the Timmins Nickel Project in Ontario. While the program intersected ultramafic rocks across several holes, no assay grades or intervals were released, as results are still being processed. Reasoning: The announcement confirms the completion of a drilling program but explicitly states that assay results are pending, meaning no new mineralogical data was actually disclosed. - Positive factor: Completion of second phase of drilling - Positive factor: Strategic location adjacent to Canada Nickel's significant projects - Negative factor: No assay results or grades provided in this release Facts used in scoring: 9 ## 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: The release does not disclose assay protocols or laboratory results as assays are still pending. Evidence · text > The assay results from the second phase drill program will be released following their receipt, compilation and interpretation. **Nearology Play** Polarity: neutral Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results. Why it applies: The project's value premise is based on its proximity to Canada Nickel's Crawford and MacDiarmid projects. Evidence · text > targeting geophysical anomalies on its claims that are on trend and/or adjacent to properties where Canada Nickel Company \(CNC\) has identified significant nickel mineralization. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 9. Some facts used in scoring do not have a stored record. ## Drill Results (9) ### NKV23-02 [Link to this fact](https://atlas-extractions.minestarters.com/news/xander-resources-completes-second-phase-of-drilling-program-for-timmins-nickel-p--c07d41d5-0d24-4d72-a700-172bbd9a8631#fact-drill-facts-0) Timmins · nickel #### Identity - Hole ID: NKV23-02 - Project: Timmins - Commodity: nickel - Region: canada\_on - Reported Region: canada\_on - Ticker: XND #### Geometry - Intercept: 42.1 m - From: 189.1 m - To: 231.5 m - Intercept Depth: 189.1 m #### Classification - Program: exploration - Sample Type: drill - Group ID: NKV23-02:189.1-231.5 #### Location - Location: Main Zone - Loc.

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.
