  • Peeks Social is also available on iOS and Android
  • MAUs grew to 314,168 for August 2018, as compared to 245,875 for July 2018, and 146,496 for June 2018.
  • The growth in MAUs was substantially all sourced from the web platform

TORONTO, Sept. 10, 2018 — Peeks Social Ltd. (TSXV: PEEK; OTCQB: PKSLF) (“Peeks Social” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the Peeks Social platform’s Monthly Active Users (“MAUs”) has increased by 114% since the launch of the web platform (www.peeks.social) on July 9, 2018. Peeks Social is also available on iOS and Android. MAUs grew to 314,168 for August 2018, as compared to 245,875 for July 2018, and 146,496 for June 2018. The growth in MAUs was substantially all sourced from the web platform.

“The launch of our upgraded web portal has led to robust and significant growth in new users coming the Peeks Social platform.  Although we have witnessed a slight cannibalization of users transitioning from the app to the website, the offsetting growth in users and higher conversion rates from our web marketing efforts have exceeded our initial expectations,” states Mark Itwaru, CEO of the Company. “I would like to congratulate our technical team on the achievement of a successful product launch.”

The Company also announces that user deposits and user sessions for the second quarter (three months ended August 31, 2018) were $1.4 million and 6.5 million, respectively, as compared to $1.4 million and 6.2 million, respectively, for the first quarter (three months ending May 31, 2018). The website of the Peeks Social platform does not yet contain the full purchase functionality of the app platforms, and as such the increase in MAUs has not yet had a direct impact on user deposits. Full purchase functionality will be available on the web platform imminently.

The Company also announces that it has closed a non-brokered private placement. The Company issued an aggregate of 2,250,000 units at a price of $0.12 per unit, for total gross consideration from this private placement of $270,000. Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant of the Company. Each warrant is exercisable to purchase one additional common share of the Company at an exercise price of $0.20 per share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance. The common shares and warrants are subject to a four month hold period. The private placement is subject to the Company obtaining final acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange upon the filing of required materials in due course. The Company paid aggregate finder’s fees of $21,600 to eligible arm’s length parties in connection with this private placement. Proceeds raised through the private placement will be used for the marketing and advancement of the “Peeks Social” platform, as well as for general working capital and corporate purposes.

Data for MAUs and user sessions was provided through Google Analytics. For additional information on Google Analytics’ definitions of these terms and the methods of calculating these metrics, please refer to https://support.google.com/analytics .

Monarquesgold hub large

  • Announced that it has sold its 30% interest in the Chimo property to Chalice Gold Mines Limited (ASX:CHN; TSX:CXN) in consideration of 3 million fully-paid ordinary Chalice shares and a net smelter return (“NSR”) royalty of 0.5-1.5% (0.5% on the claims with pre-existing royalties and 1.5% on all other claims)
  • Chalice is entitled to buy back 0.5% of the NSR royalty from Monarques for $1.0 million at any time

MONTREAL, Sept. 10, 2018 - MONARQUES GOLD CORPORATION (“Monarques” or the “Corporation”) (TSXV:MQR) (OTCMKTS:MRQRF) (FRANKFURT:MR7) is pleased to announce that it has sold its 30% interest in the Chimo property to Chalice Gold Mines Limited (“Chalice”) (ASX:CHN; TSX:CXN) in consideration of 3 million fully-paid ordinary Chalice shares and a net smelter return (“NSR”) royalty of 0.5-1.5% (0.5% on the claims with pre-existing royalties and 1.5% on all other claims). Chalice is entitled to buy back 0.5% of the NSR royalty from Monarques for $1.0 million at any time.

Previously, Chalice exercised an option in March 2018 to earn a 70% interest in the property under an option and farm-in agreement that called for it to incur $3.1 million in exploration expenditures, make option payments totalling $200,000 and grant Monarques a 1% NSR royalty on certain claims.

“This is a good deal for both companies, as it allows Chalice to consolidate its position in its highly prospective East Cadillac Gold Project and Monarques to keep an interest in this mining play while continuing to focus on its core assets, namely the Wasamac gold project,” said Jean-Marc Lacoste, President and Chief Executive Officer of Monarques.

About Labrador Gold:

Labrador Gold is a Canadian based mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition and exploration of prospective gold projects in the Americas. In 2017 Labrador Gold signed a Letter of Intent under which the Company has the option to acquire 100% of the 896 square kilometre (km2) Ashuanipi property in northwest Labrador and the Nain (503 km2) and Hopedale (458 km2) properties in eastern Labrador.

The Hopedale property covers much of the Hunt River and Florence Lake greenstone belts that stretch over 80 km. The belts are typical of greenstone belts around the world but have been underexplored by comparison. Initial work by Labrador Gold during 2017 show gold anomalies in soils and lake sediments over a 3-kilometre section of the northern portion of the Florence Lake greenstone belt in the vicinity of the known Thurber Dog gold showing where grab samples assayed up to 7.8g/t gold. In addition, anomalous gold in soil and lake sediment samples occur over approximately 40 kilometres along the southern section of the greenstone belt (see news release dated January 25th, 2018 for more details).

The Ashuanipi gold project is located just 35 km from the historical iron ore mining community of Schefferville, which is linked by rail to the port of Sept Iles, Quebec in the south. The claim blocks cover large lake sediment gold anomalies that, with the exception of local prospecting, have not seen a systematic modern-day exploration program. Results of the 2017 reconnaissance exploration program following up the lake sediment anomalies show gold anomalies in soils and lake sediments over a 15-kilometre-long by 2 to 6-kilometre-wide north-south trend and over a 14-kilometre-long by 2 to 4-kilometre-wide east-west trend. The anomalies appear to be broadly associated with magnetic highs and do not show any correlation with specific rock types on a regional scale (see news release dated January 18th, 2018). This suggests a possible structural control on the localization of the gold anomalies. Historical work 30 km north on the Quebec side led to gold intersections of up to 2.23 grams per tonne (g/t) Au over 19.55 metres (not true width) (Source: IOS Services Geoscientifiques, 2012, Exploration and geological reconnaissance work in the Goodwood River Area, Sheffor Project, Summer Field Season 2011). Gold in both areas appears to be associated with similar rock types.

  • Commenced the 2018 exploration at its Pilley’s Island Base – Precious Metal Property, Newfoundland
  • program consists of prospecting and rock and soil geochemical sampling on a regional scale, multiple targets
  • Significant levels of zinc, lead, copper, gold and silver identified in 2017 at the Bull Road Showing

Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) – GREAT ATLANTIC RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV.GR) (the “Company” or “Great Atlantic”) is pleased to announce it has commenced the 2018 exploration program at its Pilley’s Island Base – Precious Metal Property, located in north-central Newfoundland, Newfoundland and Labrador. The property was expanded in 2018 to 4,600 hectares, covering most of Pilley’s Island. The current work program consists of prospecting and rock and soil geochemical sampling on a regional scale covering multiple target areas. The Company confirmed significant levels of zinc, lead, copper, gold and silver mineralization during 2017 within the property at the Bull Road Showing. The Company is also planning a diamond drilling program for 2018 at the Bull Road Showing.

The focus of Great Atlantic’s work to date on the property has been the Bull Road showing, located in the southern region of Pilley’s Island. A trench was excavated in 2017 at this showing exposing sulfide mineralization over a northwest-southeast length of 130 meters with a width varying between 1-7 meters. The Bull Road Showing is a polylithic slump breccia of volcanogenic massive sulphide mineralization containing massive sulphide clasts up to greater than a meter in length. Sample results from this trench are reported in the Company’s News Releases of November 16 and December 14, 2017. Bull Road Trench sample highlights include (channel sample lengths are in meters):

  • 1.05m channel sample: 15.40% Zn, 6.60% Pb, 4.66% Cu, 111.5 g/t Ag and 1.008 g/t Au.

 

  • 0.70m channel sample: 17.30% Zn, 0.10% Pb, 2.97% Cu, 31.2 g/t Ag and 0.449 g/t Au.

 

  • 0.95m channel sample: 3.95% Zn, 0.73% Pb, 2.83% Cu, 62.2 g/t Ag and 0.613 g/t Au.

 

  • 1.00m channel sample: 2.96% Zn, 0.03% Pb, 3.27% Cu, 30.4 g/t Ag and 0.563 g/t Au

 

  • Outcrop grab sample: 40.8% Zn, 4.69% Pb, 6.08% Cu, 22.5 g/t Ag and 1.366 g/t Au.

 

  • Outcrop grab sample: 32.60% Zn, 1.30% Pb, 8.38% Cu, 148.1 g/t Ag and 1.421 g/t Au

 

  • Outcrop grab sample: 36.40% Zn, 5.50% Pb, 4.22% Cu, 59.9 g/t Ag and 0.325 g/t Au

 

  • Outcrop grab sample: 27.5% Zn, 20.0% Pb, 5.78% Cu, 63.4 g/t Ag and 0.314 g/t Au

The 2017 samples were analyzed at Eastern Analytical in Springdale Newfoundland (gold by Fire Assay – atomic absorption (AA); and copper, lead, zinc and silver by multi-acid digestion and AA). The channels samples were collected across selected clasts at generally right angles to the long dimension of the clasts.  The 2017 Bull Road trench sample data was verified by qualified persons who managed the sampling program and verified sample data.

Great Atlantic is planning a diamond drilling program for fall 2018 at the Bull Road showing.

The Pilley’s Island Property hosts the historic Pilley’s Island Mine, which operated during the 1890s and early 1900s. The Newfoundland and Labrador Department of Natural Resources reports historic estimated proven reserves of 1.159 million tonnes grading 1.23% Cu (referencing Grimley, 1968 as the source) or 627,373 tons at 2.34% Cu (referencing Walker, 1976 as the source ) in their Mineral Occurrence Database. David Martin, VP Exploration for Great Atlantic, states “These historical estimates of reserves are not reliable. The historical estimates are only relevant to the extent of identifying an area on the property for research and possible future exploration. The key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historical estimates are not known.  A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as current resources or current reserves. A qualified person would need to complete sufficient work following CIM Best Practice Guidelines to upgrade or verify the historical estimates as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. This would almost certainly require additional exploration in the way of diamond drilling, trenching and / or underground work and corresponding sampling all of which must follow CIM Exploration Best Practice Guidelines.” Great Atlantic is not treating the historical estimates for the historic Pilley’s Island Mine as current mineral resources or mineral reserves.

Access to and infrastructure at the Pilley’s Island Property is excellent. The property is serviced with power mains and government maintained roads and is within 2 km of tide water. The property is located within a mining friendly district.

Readers are warned that historical data on the historic Pilley’s Island Mine referred to in this News Release have not been verified by a qualified person. A qualified person has not verified this data as the Company’s focus since acquiring the property in 2017 has been the Bull Road showing.

David Martin, P.Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and VP Exploration for Great Atlantic, is responsible for the technical information contained in this News Release.

This made me, both as an influencer and a professional player, want to work together with Vie.gg. I have reached out to VIE because they showed me a great sense of motivation and passion towards building something bigger, something that I can stand behind personally. I am excited to be building a team under the Vie.gg brand together with Esports Entertainment Group and introducing their brand directly to many thousands of fans. In 2018 alone, PUBG leagues have reached over 10 million total views with the future looking even brighter. I am looking forward to working together with the Vie.gg team as they have been showing me that we share common values and ambitions.”

Christian “Noir” Heinrichs, Owner of myRevenge and the first Vie.gg esports team Affiliate, stated as follows, “We are now Affiliate partners with Vie.gg for the duration of one year, since Gamescom 2017, and we have seen the company continue to grow and evolve through the year. I think that soon, Vie.gg will be the biggest betting platform in the esports business. We are looking forward to growing with the company as Affiliates, helping them bring on more new visitors and increasing our revenue as well. At Gamescom 2018, we worked together on-site with the full Vie.gg staff and it was a great honor to see how well we all worked together to bring more people to the brand.”

Grant Johnson, CEO of Esports Entertainment Group, stated, “A month prior to the show, we announced the major milestone of signing our 100th esports team Affiliate, a feat not matched by any esports wagering site.  Today, we’re announcing an additional 193 Affiliates from Gamescom 2018, which far surpassed our expectations.  The overwhelming response from the esports industry has served as further confirmation that our transparent P2P esports wagering platform is exactly what the esports world has been waiting for. We can’t wait to make Vie.gg the industry leader with the help of all our VIE Affiliates in 2018.”

PyroGenesis $PYR.ca Announces Intention to Purchase Up to 4.1% of its Common Shares in Open Market

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:42 AM on Thursday, September 6th, 2018

Pyr header 1

  • Announced today that it intends to implement a normal course issuer bid  through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange
  • Pursuant to the NCIB, PyroGenesis proposes to purchase, from time to time, over a period of 12 months, up to 5,000,000 (approx. 4.1%) of its common shares issued and outstanding

MONTREAL, Sept. 06, 2018 — PyroGenesis Canada Inc. (http://pyrogenesis.com) (TSX-V: PYR), a TSX Venture 50® high-tech company, (the “Company”, the “Corporation” or “PyroGenesis”) a Company that designs, develops and manufactures plasma waste-to-energy systems and plasma torch systems, is pleased to announce today that it intends to implement a normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”) through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”).

Pursuant to the NCIB, PyroGenesis proposes to purchase, from time to time, over a period of 12 months, up to 5,000,000 (approx. 4.1%) of its common shares issued and outstanding (the “Shares”). As of the date hereof, there are 122,895,342 Shares of PyroGenesis issued and outstanding.

Purchases under the NCIB will commence on acceptance and approval of the TSXV and will expire on the earlier of: (i) one year from such commencement; or (ii) the date on which the Company has purchased the maximum number of Shares to be acquired under the NCIB. All purchases made by the Company will be through Pollitt & Co. Inc. acting on behalf of the Company in accordance with the rules of the TSXV. The actual number of Shares which will be purchased, and the timing of such purchases, will be determined by the Company, and the price which the Company will pay for the Shares will be the market price at the time of the purchase.

The Company’s Board of Directors believe that the market price of the Company’s Shares does not reflect the underlying value of the Company, specifically its growth opportunities, and that the proposed purchasing of its Shares is in the best interests of the Company and represents an appropriate use of corporate funds. Any purchases made by the Company could also enhance value and liquidity for its ongoing shareholders.

“At these price levels, we find the value of our shares to be an attractive investment and, as such, a good use of funds, particularly given our recent press releases which describe, amongst other things that (i) the Company contracted for an order of 10 tons (minimum) of titanium powders, (ii) is now recommended by a leading 3D printer OEM to their customers, (iii) has embraced a tolling strategy for its Drosrite™ system with joint venture discussions in progress, and (iv) interest by the US Military for two (2) aircraft carrier systems continues.  This is all within the background of being nominated “Materials Company of the Year” at the 3D Printing Industry Awards 2018, and continued strategic commercial discussions with significant players within the Additive Manufacturing industry,” said P. Peter Pascali, President and CEO of PyroGenesis. “Despite our daily trading volume being respectable, we believe that the share price does not fully reflect this news. We find it inconceivable that PyroGenesis is approximately half the market value than it was at the end of January 2018, particularly given the news released since that time. As such, we feel it is an opportune time to buy PyroGenesis’ shares.”

$GGX.ca GGX Gold Drills 1.66 m of 7.6 g/t Au, 60 g/t Ag at Gold Drop #K.ca

Posted by AGORACOM at 8:33 AM on Thursday, September 6th, 2018

https://s3.amazonaws.com/s3.agoracom.com/public/companies/logos/564602/hub/ggx_large.png

  • Holes COD18-52 to COD18-54. The COD gold bearing vein is located in the Gold Drop Southwest Zone.
  • 7.6 g/t gold, 60.2 g/t silver and 34.1 g/t tellurium over 1.66 meter core length in drill hole COD18-54
  •   COD18-54 was collared approximately 50 meters northeast drill hole COD17-14 which intersected the 4.59 g/t gold over 16.03 m

GGX Gold Corp has received additional analytical results from its diamond drilling program on the Gold Drop property, located near Greenwood, B.C. Drill core analytical results have been received for 2018 drill holes COD18-52 to COD18-54 which tested the COD Vein. The COD gold bearing vein is located in the Gold Drop Southwest Zone. High grade gold has been confirmed within the COD Vein during the 2018 drill program with some core samples exceeding 1 oz. / ton gold. Gold bearing quartz veins are also reported in the east and north regions of the property, with historic samples reported to exceed 1 oz. / ton gold for veins in both areas.

The analytical results listed below are highlights from drill holes COD18-52 to COD18-54 (intersections greater than 1 g/t gold), testing the continuation of the COD Vein in the area of the 2017 trench at the COD Vein. Since true widths cannot be accurately determined from the information available the core lengths (meters) are reported. The gold, silver and tellurium analyses are reported in grams per tonne (g/t).

The highlight from these analytical results is the intersection of 7.6 g/t gold, 60.2 g/t silver and 34.1 g/t tellurium over 1.66 meter core length in drill hole COD18-54, including 35.8 g/t gold, 276 g/t silver and 154.5 g/t tellurium over 0.30 meter core length. This interval of quartz veining/ flooding and altered granodiorite is at approximately 20 meter vertical depth. This hole was collared approximately 50 meters northeast drill hole COD17-14 which intersected the 4.59 g/t gold over 16.03 meter core length, including 10.96 g/t gold over 5.97 meter core length (News Release of September 7, 2017).

The 2018 drilling program focused on testing and defining the COD Vein, a Dentonia/Jewel style quartz vein. Trenching during 2017 exposed the northeast – southwest striking COD Vein for over 160 meter strike length. Numerous 2018 drill holes testing the COD Vein intersected significant levels of gold, silver and tellurium as reported in News Releases of May 29, June 14, June 27, July 11, July 19, July 25, August 1, August 9, August 15, August 22 and August 30. These included holes in the area of the 2017 trench and holes southwest of the 2017 trench. More significant gold intersections (core length) to date from the 2018 program are as follows:

COD18-3: 14.62 g/t Au over 2.1 meters COD18-26: 10.3 g/t Au over 1.4 meter recovered core (within 2.35 meter interval) COD18-28: 11.3 g/t Au over 0.51 meters COD18-33: 8.65 g/t Au over 2.98 meters COD18-34: 6.16 g/t Au over 3.41 meters COD18-37: 8.23 g/t Au over 3.95 meters COD18-45: 50.1 g/t Au over 2.05 meters COD18-46: 54.9 g/t Au over 1.47 meters COD18-49: 9.52 g/t Au over 1.47 meters COD18-54: 7.60 g/t Au over 1.66 meters

The 2018 drilling program also tested the continuation of the Everest Vein, which is located approximately 600 meters southwest of the COD Vein worksite. The Everest Vein was first discovered by Company prospectors during the 2017. Chip samples collected in 2017 across the approximate 0.4 meter wide vein exposure returned up to 52.8 g/t gold and 377 g/t silver while a grab sample of a quartz vein boulder broken off the outcrop by the excavator returned 81.8 g/t gold and 630 g/t silver (News Release of August 21, 2017).

In addition to the gold discovered by the Company at the COD and Everest Veins, gold mineralization is reported in quartz veins in the east and north regions of the property. These include the Gold Drop, North Star and the Silent Friend quartz veins in the east region of the property and Amandy, Roderick Dhu, Lady of the Lake, Lake View and Moonlight in northern region of the property. High grade gold is reported for historic samples at some of these veins with samples reported to exceed 1 oz. / ton gold. Historic gold production occurred at the Gold Drop, North Star, Amandy and Roderick Dhu veins.

Drill core from the 2018 program was geologically logged and sampled. Drill core was sawn in half with half core samples submitted for analysis and remaining half core stored in a secure location. Core samples were delivered to the ALS Minerals laboratory in Vancouver to be analyzed for gold by Fire Assay – AA. Samples exceeding 100 g/t gold were re-analyzed for gold by Fire Assay – Gravimetric Finish. The samples were also analyzed for 48 Elements by Four Acid ICP-MS. Samples exceeding 100 g/t silver were re-analyzed for silver by Four Acid ICP-AES. One sample from COD18-46 exceeded 1500 g/t silver and was re-analyzed for silver by Fire Assay – Gravimetric Finish. Quality control (QC) samples were inserted at regular intervals.

  • A Canadian eSports company is the latest to try and offer its own cryptocurrency
  • Canada Cup is introducing the eSports ecosystem digital token (because, apparently, it couldn’t be creative enough to come up with a unique name), which will reportedly empower all gamers through the creation of a digital eSports currency specifically for the community

BY Erik Gibbs ON September 05, 2018

ESE will offer a medium to transfer value, reward both casual and professional players and compliment the current fiat-based payout structure. The token is designed, as described by Canada Cup, to fill a gap that prevents a number of casual gamers from being rewarded for their participation.

ESE token holders can passively earn more tokens through Canada Cup’s “staking rewards” program. This will provide an additional income source to both gamers and organizers, which will help them finance future participation. An ESE Loyalty Nodes program is also anticipated, and is designed to provide stability to the token award program above and beyond the passive awards users can accumulate. The staking rewards and Loyalty Nodes programs won’t be ready until sometime during the first quarter of next year.

A community wallet, representing 17% of the token’s initial supply, will be used to give back to the community. It will offer a variety of prize pools, player and team sponsorships, scholarships, charity donations and eSports advertisements.

Canada Cup, which was founded in 2010, hosts a number of tournaments for a variety of fighting games and is behind “the largest and most prestigious fighting game tournament in Canada,” the Canadian Fighting Game tournament.

According to the ESE white paper (in pdf), the currency will solve a number of problems, including complimenting fiat payouts by adding ESE tokens from the community wallet, which would increase the value of the total prize pool to support professional gamers financially and make it easier to transition into a gaming career.

It also promises to broaden payout structures to allow more players to reap rewards from tournaments, which means rewards are no longer limited to the top echelon of players, but can be extended to casual players due to an increased prize pool. Lastly, the currency will encourage tournament organizers to continue hosting events by supporting these events financially with ESE tokens from the community wallet to ensure that these events are sustainable, according to the company.
