## Evidence gaps

- No independent credential verification, complete earlier-employer chronology or exact AIC commencement day.

- Current AIC technical reporting responsibility and drill results are documented; team discovery costs, reserve conversion and realised project/shareholder returns are not separately established.

- Namesake results make name-only legal searches unreliable.

- The prior dossier and its earlier search logs were preserved separately. Prior search execution and citations not re-opened in this audit were not treated as independently verified; omitted claims require fresh source-level review.
