Paul Gill, CEO of Lomiko Metals (LMR:TSX:V) (LMRMF:OTCQB) (DH8C:FRANK) is in the midst of proving up a very high grade Graphite deposit.
The La Loutre Flake Graphite property is a high-grade (10+ % Cg) deposit located 117 kilometres northwest of Montreal. It has an indicated + inferred resource of 10 M Tonnes of 6% at the Graphene-Battery Zone.
Lomiko recently completed drilling at the “REFRACTORY Zone†of La loutre. A second resource that includes recent high grade intercepts of 28.5 Metres of 16.53% Cg and 21.5 Metres of 11.53% Cg reported January 6, 2016 and 9% over 90.75 metres reported September 24th 2015 from the Refractory Zone.
The company reported multiple 100M+ intercepts and multiple 10% CG zones.
On the demand side, Paul provides a compelling argument for the future of graphite and more specifically EV’s (Tesla). Paul’s thesis further suggests that the recent oil shock will do little to curb the long term lifestyle demand of the future Tesla consumer.

When US Government Agencies call you in the middle of the greatest health and economic crisis in 100 years to help them detect social media disinformation about COVID-19, it is safe to assume your Artificial Intelligence capabilities to detect fake news, disinformation campaigns and their impact is amongst the most respected in the world. Â
But when the Canadian government calls on you to help with the import and sale of COVID-19 test kits from South Korea, it is also safe to assume your trust and security clearances are at the highest levels possible.  Â
You would probably also assume such a company to be a tech giant or a Silicon Valley funded startup. But Datametrex AI (DM: TSXV) is neither. Rather, it is a great Canadian small cap technology company who happens to have: Â
“developed strong relationships with many large multi-national companies in South Korea. As a result of these relationships, the Canadian Embassy in Seoul contacted Datametrex to ask for help in procuring rapid test kits.”
If that wasn’t enough, Datametrex has also achieved the following as of late:
Q3 Revenues Of $1.6 million, an increase of 186%
9 Month Revenues Of $2.56M an increase of 37%
Repeat Contracts Of $1M and $600,000 With Korean Giant LOTTE
$954,000 Contract With Canadian Department of Defence To Fight Social Media Election Meddling
Participation In NATO Research Task Group On Social Media Threat Detection
Becoming an affiliate member of the Carnegie Mellon University Center for IDeaS
When a small cap Artificial Intelligence company is successfully deploying its technology with military and conglomerates, as well as, being called upon by the Canadian federal government to ask for help with the greatest pandemic in 100 years, smart small cap investors are compelled to take a closer look. Â
That look can begin with our latest interview of Datametrex CEO, Marshall Gunter, who discusses obtaining the rights to import and sell COVID-19 test kits from South Korea and the impact it will have on the Company. Â
Watch this interview on one of your favourite screens or hit play and listen to the audio as you drive.Â
The statement is sure to draw significant fire from the multitude of graphite juniors and proponents of graphite as the primary material in the lithium-ion anode, who vastly outnumber the number of silicon proponents in the junior market. Â
According to HPQ CEO, Bernard Tourillon, graphite anodes are consistent performers, however, their limited energy capacity makes them ill-suited as the long term global answer to skyrocketing demand for electric vehicles. Silicon anodes, on the other hand, absorb far more lithium than their graphite counterparts, offering a substantial improvement in battery efficiency.
Tourillon isn’t just spinning a story. His claims are backed by hard facts and science. He does agree, however, that Silicon has not been able to go mainstream due to swelling and cracking issues – but according to HPQ – these latest promising results represent a step forward in that solving that problem. Â
With HPQ already under NDA with a battery manufacturer, Tourillon’s claims carry even greater weight. If HPQ can deliver, he may very well knock graphite off its perch single-handedly. Â
Watch this interview to hear what Tourillon has to further say on the subject, which will also undoubtedly serve as the basis for heated debate between HPQ and the graphite world for months to come. To the winner the spoils …. and Tourillon believes strongly that HPQ will prevail. Â

With 165,000 patients, Empower Clinics (CBDT:CSE) (EPWCF:OTCQB) has a database that almost every medical cannabis and CBD company would kill for. Patient visits increased 800% in February. 590% in March and 480% for Q1. But will Coronavirus social gathering imitations put the clinic network at risk?
No. In fact, it has had the opposite effect, with the clinics being designated an essential service. Moreover, Empower had to actually increase operating hours due to demand from existing patients who need their CBD medication more than ever, as well as, new patients who are experiencing anxiety and stress through the COVID-19 pandemic.
BUT THAT WASN’T ENOUGH
The Company has now entered expanded into telemedicine across multiple states for patients who can’t get to a clinic but need a consultation with doctors over the phone to determine the best CBD medications, as well as, 250 new homeopath products for their newly launched immunotherapy initiative …. all which can be fulfilled through the company’s e-commerce platform.
Oh …. and did we mention that psychedelics are on the way? Empower Clinics has already announced its intention to expand into the field of Psilocybin and psychedelics. The new telemedicine platform now accelerates this initiative.
Watch this interview with the Company’s CEO, Steven McAuley, who is Six Sigma certified under the quality initiative of legendary GE chairman Jack Welch. We’ve never seen a Six Sigma certified CEO in the Canadian small cap markets. Never …. which also explains how McAuley has been able to guide Empower Clinics through the most disruptive retail environment in recent history and turn it into real growth.

When a company’s trading gets halted for a prolonged period of time, it is more than likely a death knell. For BTRU, it was a resurrection. Â
Under intense scrutiny of its business by regulators already, CEO Brad Loiselle and his team undertook their own serious evaluation of the Company’s powerful but faltering B2C online education platform. They realized they were in the right space and had superior technology to deliver online education ….. but they were in the wrong target market. B2C quite frankly, has massive upside but it involves an enormous amount of heavy lifting to target and attract enough individual customers to become viable. Â
As such, the Company decided to take its offering and really focus in on B2B instead. And they didn’t just make the decision, they used the halt to tweak their software and reach out to hundreds of companies about how their superior offering could skill, reskill and upskill their workforces. Before coming out of halt, they were already having serious conversations with serious organizations. Â
And it doesn’t hurt when your existing clients include McDonald’s India, Central Bank of India and Indian Oil Corporation. Â
With Easter just a couple of days away, add this resurrection story to your must watch list this weekend.

Three years ago, Harry Barr couldn’t get anyone to even look at New Age Metals (NAM:TSXV) flagship property, the 100% owned River Valley Project, one of North America’s largest undeveloped Platinum Group Metals Projects, situated 100 kilometres from Sudbury. Â
But with Palladium at $US 2,100/oz and River Valley sitting on 2.9Moz Palladium Equivalent (Measured & Indicated), things have changed significantly, including the fact that Eric Sprott has become a strategic shareholder with 18.56% ownership. Â
WAIT … THERE’S MORE Â
NAM’s 2019 Preliminary Economic Assessment highlights include a 14 year mine life, resulting in an annual average payable Palladium Equivalent production of 119,000 ounces. Â
WAIT ….. THERE’S ONE MORE THING Â
The PEA assumed a Palladium price of $US 1,200, which is now 75% higher at $US 2,100. Â
With NAM now using their war chest to further drill River Valley and follow-up on recommendations from the PEA, there is reason to believe this story is only going to get better. Â
Grab your favourite beverage and watch this interview with NAM CEO, Harry Barr.

At a time when established Cannabis stocks are struggling due to an inability to actually deliver real businesses, Hollister Biosciences (HOLL:CSE) has been quietly building a real business, products, revenue and customers in 220 of California’s 600 dispensaries …. and growing, including California’s #1 hash infused pre-roll “Hashbone”. Â
If that was all Hollister had going, they’d be in great shape with a super bright future and better than most Cannabis companies (small and large) who can’t even get product out the door. Â
BUT THERE’S MORE – THE $20,000,000 ACQUISITION THAT COMES WITH $CDN 16.4M REVENUE & $CDN 2.48M EBITDA Â
Hollister has closed their purchase of Venom Extracts, one of Arizona’s largest producers of Award-Winning Medical Cannabis Distillate. Just how good is Venom? In 2019, Venom generated $CDN 16.4M in revenue and $CDN 2.48M EBITDA in 2019 … and all of that was just from the state of Arizona. Â
In this amazing interview, Venom Founder Jake Cohen discusses Venom’s aggressive plans to expand its brand and success into other states, including California as it benefits from Hollister’s distribution into 220 dispensaries. Right now, some of you may be thinking, “yeah but everybody thinks they are going to expand” …. but Jake’s words, as well as those of Alex Somjen (President) and Carl Saling (CEO) are backed up by action.  Â
Specifically, a significant chunk of Venom’s acquisition shares kicks in if/when revenues hit $CDN 30,000 and $CDN 40,000 …. by December 31, 2021. In my experience, companies joining forces don’t include such terms if there isn’t a reasonable expectation for hitting those numbers. It doesn’t guarantee it but you can bet they have good reason to believe Venom sales will get to one or both of those numbers in just 21 months from now. Â
If you’re looking for Cannabis companies that are going to survive and thrive over this next decade, then grab your favourite beverage and watch this great interview with Carl Saling, Alex Somjen and Jacob Cohen.

In October of 2019, PyroGenesis announced a $20M contract, in which its technology would be used by one of the biggest high-tech aluminum smelters in the world. Yesterday, the Company received it’s first $1.44M payment of a total of $8M to be received over the next several weeks.
If that wasn’t enough, after already having sold two plasma torch based systems to the US Navy for installation on two aircraft carries, PyroGenesis the Company has already been advised by the US Navy that $13.5M in orders are coming for two more aircraft carriers. Â
To this end, investors will be happy to hear that PyroGenesis has been deemed an essential service, is fully operating with almost all employees working remotely and does not foresee any demand side or supply chain issues hampering the Company’s operations. Â
Finally and perhaps most importantly, CEO Peter Pascali discusses the civil duty reasons behind his $100,000 donation to Quebec healthcare in its fight against COVID-19, as well as, the corporate duty reasons for not laying off a single employees despite a virtual shutdown of the global economy. Â
On all fronts, this is the most powerful interview we have ever produced with a Canadian small cap company. Â
If you are just discovering PyroGenesis (PYR:TSXV) then grab your favourite drink and watch this powerful video …. or listen in via podcast when you want to tune out the world and learn about an incredible company. Â
