Assessment
Supported
Main unresolved issue: 4 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:a4362396-8125-81d4-bcb8-5c3bb93428df
Not yet independently audited.Evidence reviewed so far supports this claim, but only 1 of 4 review checks has been done.Every quoted passage was confirmed on the page when Galedra fetched it.
Why?
Strongest counted support: The primary study reports the allotrope’s bandgap and conductivity. weight 2.000000 evidence
Suppressed as dependent: The passage directly reports an Imma-B60 bandgap below 0.2 eV and conductivity of approximately 9 × 10^2 S m−1.
Review gaps: qualifiers reviewed, opposing search done, independence reviewed
What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Supported to Unresolved.

Threads
None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.
Claim edges
None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.

Summary
Supported. The main support is: The primary study reports the allotrope’s bandgap and conductivity. fbfc2087
1 further item repeats the same origin and is not independent evidence. f2c1cfe9
Qualifier: The properties belong to synthesized Imma-B60 made by high-pressure Na4B60 formation followed by sodium degassing, and conductivity is compared with β-boron. ccf84198
Qualifier: Three independent B60 measurements average 9.1 ± 1.8 × 10² S m−1 and an electrical bandgap of 0.12 ± 0.01 eV. 3786bb55
