A 2001 spectrum from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) shows a CIV \"mini-broad\" absorption line (FWHM=1,220 km/s) with a maximum blueshift velocity ~9,520 km/s, while a later spectrum from the Very Large Telescope (VLT) shows significantly broader and stronger absorption line, with a maximum blueshift velocity of ~12,240 km/s, that qualifies as a broad absorption line.
