Evidence gaps

• Person-specific topic and indexed regulator searches were performed; complete prior-employer chronology, underlying regulator/court registers and independently verified qualifications remain incomplete.

• The issuer presentation identifies four directors and two officers on page 4 and the exploration manager on page 2; other unannounced senior roles cannot be excluded.

• The presentation p.4 and annual report p.15 were visually inspected; other cached PDF pages cited were not visually inspected.
