## Evidence gaps

- Credential and professional licence claims have not been independently verified with awarding or licensing bodies.

- This is limited public-source screening; full prior-employer incident, litigation and regulator records were not obtained, and no personal clearance is inferred.

- Individual contribution to aggregate company results is not established.

- A final outcome of subsequent Alcaparrosa challenges and implementation of remediation was not established.

- This report is a preliminary screening: nine topic rows include reused combined and company-level searches. They are not nine separate person-specific searches and do not establish comprehensive prior-employer diligence.

- Lundin’s Alcaparrosa record and transaction were reviewed, but the former employer’s full incident and legal history was not comprehensively searched.
