America’s largest undeveloped primary Platinum Group Metal (PGM)
projects. The Project has excellent infrastructure and is within 100
kilometres of the Sudbury Metallurgical Complex. The Project is 100%
owned by New Age Metals
The
Company has contracted Jacobs & Samuel Drilling Ltd of Val Caron,
Ontario to conduct a phase one 1,600 metre drill program at the River
Valley Project and drilling has begun
The Company completed a $2M financing on
February 3, 2020. The primary use of proceeds will be to follow-up on
recommendations from the 2019 Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA)
Eric Sprott became a strategic shareholder
and has an 18.56% ownership of the Company’s current issued and

Genesis PGM Project in Alaska and for our Lithium division in Manitoba
March 26th, 2020Â – Rockport, Canada – New Age Metals Inc. (TSXV:NAM); (OTC:NMTLF); (FSE:P7J) Harry Barr, Chairman & CEO, stated; “New Age Metals is pleased to announce that the company is about to commence the next phase of drilling at the River Valley PGM deposit near Sudbury, Ontario. The company plans to drill about 1,600m of core in five holes to test high-priority targets within and adjacent to the Pine Zone and Dana North Zone of the River Valley deposit. This drill program is the first phase of our 2020 exploration and development program, and will run through April. The Company continues to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and is evaluating the potential risks to our staff and contractors. In light of the fluid nature of events the Company would like to note that there is no certainty that the current exploration activities will be completed without interruption.”
The purpose of the drill program is to test three Pine Zone target types:
1) induced polarization (IP) chargeability highs from the 2017
geophysical survey for extensions of the Pine Zone or new discoveries in
the footwall to Dana North; 2) potential extensions of higher-grade
trends external to the current mineral resources in the Pine Zone; and
3) whether and how the Pine Zone may be connected to the Dana North Zone
at depth. The connection of the two zones is currently modelled, based
on the available drilling, as a major SSE-plunging fold. The
drilling will test for evidence of such folding, including the
potential presence of thickened and higher-grade PGM sulphide
mineralization within the fold nose. See Figure 1 below for the planned drill hole locations in the upcoming phase one program.

Project near Sudbury, Ontario
Since the two discovery holes in 2015, 19
more holes have been drilled into the Pine Zone. All the holes except
one intersected the zone. Examples of some of the better intersections
are: 4.03 g/t Pd+Pt+Au over 9m from 145m in hole 2015-DN002 and 3.22 g/t
Pd+Pt+Au over 4m from 202 m in hole 2016-DN-T2-10. More details can be
found in the various press releases on the New Age Metals website. The Pine Zone remains open along strike and at depth with an interpreted SSE dip/plunge direction.

Signed a production order with Celebrity Driven Brand Beauty Kitchen to provide a free non-hydroalcoholic gel to local communities after fears of hand sanitizer shortages.
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 24, 2020 — PRIMO NUTRACEUTICALS INC. (CSE: PRMO) (OTC: BUGVF) (FSE: 8BV) (DEU: 8BV) (MUN: 8BV) (STU: 8BV) (“Primo” or the “Company”)Â is pleased to announce that it has signed a production order with Celebrity Driven Brand Beauty Kitchen to provide a free non-hydroalcoholic gel to local communities after fears of hand sanitizer shortages.
As the impact of COVID-19 is felt across the globe, and with the reported cases of the corona virus spreading rapidly across Canada and the US,
Primo Nutraceuticals feel it is our obligation, as corporate citizens,
to address every aspect of our operations with the goal of ensuring that
our workplace has proper business protocols in place for business to
continue; and that our business community, friends, family and the
public at large are safe guarded. We are proud to introduce a line of
hand sanitizers in collaboration with Beauty Kitchen to help mitigate
the spread of germs in our communities.
The directors of Primo are passionate about wanting to help their
local communities fight the spread of germs by manufacturing the “Primo
Clean†hand sanitizer and giving it away for free.
Andy Jagpal, President Comments:
“Through this initiative, Primo intends to help address the risk
of a lack of hand sanitizer products in our local communities which will
enable a greater number of people to continue to take the right action
to protect themselves from the spread of the germs.”
PRIMO’s move comes in the wake of widespread shortages of hand
sanitizer across the globe. In New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced that
the state would be employing inmates in order to produce its own hand sanitizer.
The CDC
recommends washing your hands with soap and water whenever possible as
it will significantly reduce the amount of all types of germs and
chemicals on hands. However, if soap and water are not available, using
hand sanitizer can help you avoid spreading germs to others. Please note
however, that hand sanitizers may not be as effective when hands are
visibly dirty or greasy.

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 351% in Q4 and 800% in February.
But would 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 has had to actually increase operating hours.
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. Â

Indian edtech industry to grow at an incredible rate in 2020
Not everyone has access to quality academic resources at school, but more and more people have a phone in their hands nowindicating how edtech is helping democratize education
At the same time, the consumer base is increasing phenomenally, paving way for opportunities not just in the academic space, but in vocational courses and skill development as well
With a robust rise in smartphone ownership and internet adoption, learning has become more personalized, convenient, and all-encompassing. Not everyone has access to quality academic resources at school, but more and more people have a phone in their hands nowindicating how edtech is helping democratize education. At the same time, the consumer base is increasing phenomenally, paving way for opportunities not just in the academic space, but in vocational courses and skill development as well.
AMIDST ALL THESE DEVELOPMENTS, HERE ARE SOME TRENDS THAT SIGNIFY HOW
THE EDTECH INDUSTRY IN INDIA WILL CONTINUE GROWING AT AN INCREDIBLE RATE
IN 2020, AND BEYOND:
With the proliferation of smartphones, there has been a significant
shift towards mobile-first solutions and products. In the edtech space,
mobile-first approach will become central for learner experience. There
are many effective ways for mobile learning to be tapped into which can
provide consumers an enhanced experience within a short-time span.
Because of this and other such factors, mobile-first learning products
will explode in the country’s edtech space.
There lies a massive opportunity in the space of vernacular content. A
report by Google India and KPMG estimated that as much as 73% of the
Indian internet users are going to interact in a regional language by
2021. Amid this, having an English-only approach for the platform will
limit the consumer base to a significant extent. Therefore, there is a
lot of scope for business in the vernacular market, and further scope
for them to play a role in bridging the country’s digital divide.
Indians are more than willing to pay for digital services now. Due to
a rise in disposable income, there has been certain income elasticity
towards expenditure on education-related products. This indicates how
across various income levels, Indian consumers are willing to invest in
value-added online learning products and platforms. The ‘freemium’ model
has also led to the rise of paid models by facilitating free trials for
better decision-making on the consumers’ end.
These are some of the several innovations and developments taking
place in various fields of edtech, leading to new delivery methods,
improvement in student engagement tactics, democratized access to
education, personalized experiences, and more. India has a large
consumer base and there are diverse categories of learners, learning
modes, courses, and outcomes that entrepreneurs in the edtech space, or
edupreneurs’ can explore. With our classrooms, workplaces, and job
markets changing owing to the rapidly emerging technologies, edtech has
become all the more relevant today, and will continue to positively
impact more and more people across the country in 2020, and beyond.

A Green Metals Company
New Age Metals has two divisions which focus on the exploration and development of green metals: Platinum Group Metals and Lithium
i.) PGM Division: focus on development of the 100% owned River Valley PGM Project.
ii.) Lithium Canada: focus on exploration of hard rock lithium, in Manitoba, Canada.
Eric Sprott is a strategic shareholder and has an 18.56% ownership of the Company’s current issued and outstanding shares on a post conversion beneficial ownership basis
Largest 100% owned undeveloped primary PGM project in North America, Palladium is the main payable metal accounting for 65% of revenue stream based on 2019 PEA.
1:0.4 (Pd:Pt).
Excellent infrastructure and within 100 kilometers of the Sudbury Metallurgical Complex.
NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimation Q1 2019.
PEA Q3 2019.
2020 plan to follow up on PEA recommendations.
Preliminary Economic Assessment demonstrates positive economics for a large-scale open pit mining operation.
PEA Highlights (CDN$):
Life of mine (LOM) of 14 years, with 6 million tonnes annually of potential process plant feed at an average grade of 0.88 g/t Palladium Equivalent (PdEq) and process recovery rate of 80%, resulting in an annual average payable PdEq production of 119,000 ounces.
Pre-Production capital requirements: $495 M.
Undiscounted cash flow before income and mining taxes of $586M.
Undiscounted cash flow after income and mining taxes of $384M.
Average unit operating cost of $19.50/tonne over the life-of-mine.
Potential for up to 325 jobs at the peak of production.
Using March 11, 2020 spot Palladium price (US$2,275/oz) River Valley Project After-tax IRR is 30% and After-tax NPV (5%) is $C858M.

Management has developed a three-phase exploration and development plan for the balance of 2020.
Phase One will focus on drilling to expand the boundaries of the Pine Zone discovery and to generate rhodium data for future mineral resource estimations.
Phase Two will involve drill testing further geophysical targets in the Northern area of the project, identified in the 2017/2018 induced polarization surveys. The target areas to be drill tested in this program are outlined in Figure 1.
Finally, Phase 3 will be focused on metallurgy – with the primary objective being to improve process recoveries of platinum metals, particularly palladium and including rhodium. We plan to start Phase 1 in early Q2-2020.
Note that each phase is contingent on success from the previous phase.
On April 18, 2018 New Age Metals acquired the Genesis Platinum Group Metals Project.

The Genesis project’s PGM-Cu-Ni mineralization is hosted in the Tonsina mafic-ultramafic complex, an undrilled, virtually unexplored layered mafic-ultramafic complex. Recent petrology indicates the Genesis mineralization is similar to the Stillwater and Great Dyke complexes.
Known PGM mineralization covers a distance of 9 km across the prospect.
The Genesis PGM-Cu-Ni Project is an under explored, highly prospective multi-prospect drill ready property that warrants follow-up drilling, additional surface mapping, sampling to expand the known footprint of mineralization and to determine the ultimate size and grade of the layered mineralization outlined to date.
The stable land status, ease of access and superb infrastructure make this project prospective for year-around exploration, development and production.
Summer 2019 exploration efforts doubled the strike length of prospective mineralization at our road accessible Genesis PGM-Ni-Cu Project in Alaska.
Currently, New Age is seeking an Option/Joint Venture Partner to assist in the exploration and development of this project.
New Age Metals is the largest mineral claim holder in the prolific, Winnipeg River – Cat Lake Pegmatite Field. All of the claims are held by Lithium Canada Development, a 100% owned Lithium Division of New Age Metals. The company presently has eight Lithium Projects in the region which are along strike of the Tanco Pegmatite and the claims encompass several pegmatite groups.
Situated around the Tanco Mine which in 2019 was acquired by Chinese miner Sinomine, the projects are located 140 kilometres northeast of Winnipeg, Manitoba.
Three of the projects are considered drill ready. Lithium One, Lithium Two and Lithman West
Active exploration of the claim holdings is ongoing.
New Age Metals has signed an exploration agreement with the Sagkeeng
First Nation in regards to the exploration and development of any of
the company’s claims that are located on traditional Sagkeeng
territories.
The Tanco Mine was one of North America’s only producers of
Tantalum, Cesium and Lithium minerals (Spodumene), with the mine opening
in 1969. Owned by the Cabot Corporation as of 1993 until 2019, when
Chinese miner Sinomine purchased from Cabot for US$130M.
Presently the Tanco Mine produces Cesium Formate, a completion fluid for the petroleum industry.
Management is actively seeking a qualified
and dedicated Option Joint Venture Partner to assist in the exploration
and development of these highly prospective projects.
