Let $A$ be a stable, separable, real rank zero ${{C}^{*}}$-algebra, and suppose that $A$ has an AF-skeleton with only finitely many extreme traces. Then the corona algebra $\mathcal{M}\left( A \right)/A$ is purely infinite in the sense of Kirchberg and Rørdam, which implies that $A$ has the corona factorization property.
