  • 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.

Canada’s #Esports tournament creates its own #cryptocurrency $GMBL $ATVI $TTWO $GAME $EPY.ca $TCEHF $Game.ca $EPY.ca

  • 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.

How Online education #edtech is beneficial for students from remote areas in #India $BTRU.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 3:41 PM on Tuesday, September 4th, 2018

  • A country’s growth is governed by many factors, and education is one of them.
  • While schools in the urban areas are complemented by state-of-the-art infrastructure, facilities, and teachers; schools in the rural areas struggle with necessary facilities like toilets and lack a proper teaching staff.
  • Needless to say, this results in a reduced sense of motivation among students and is a significant cause of poor quality of education in rural schools

Despite 85% of the government schools being in villages, students in rural areas rarely get the quality education that could benefit them. This leads to a loss of potential talent which could have contributed to the progress of the country. Keeping in mind the fact that numerous successful IAS aspirants are from rural areas, there are no limits to what these students could achieve if they are given access to quality education.

Non-Profit Organizations:

To battle this imminent problem, many non-profit organizations like eVidyaloka are now trying to improve the quality learning by bringing online education to rural classrooms. Their prime purpose is to bring about a knowledgeable and empowered rural India through the provision of quality education. The “each one, teach one” ideology encourages educated professionals to take time out of their schedules to deliver online lectures to students from rural areas.

The students thus not only get the quality education they lack, but they also get taught by teachers who are enthusiastic about teaching, which also goes a long way in boosting their morale. Online education enhances the learning outcome of students through learning modules that are focused on their classroom syllabus.

The language also poses a barrier when it comes to teaching in rural areas. NGOs, however, have overcome this barrier through an active tutor management program that focuses on taking on volunteers who are comfortable teaching in the local language, although it might not be their medium of instruction during their school days!

Government Initiatives:

The government has also played a significant role in bringing about an educational reform through online learning. The Ministry of Human Resource Development has recently launched three initiatives – Swayam, Swayam Prabha, and National Academic Depository, which aim to take the e-learning sector in India to the next level. At the inauguration of these initiatives, former President Pranab Mukherjee talked about how digital technology can enable excellent teachers to directly teach a large number of students who are not physically present in classes. The interactive learning experience will thus allow students in the remote parts of the country to benefit from lectures delivered by highly qualified teachers.

Swayam and Swayam Prabha are a rendition of digital classrooms that enable students from rural areas to connect either through the Internet or direct-to-home service and access educational content. Swayam offers courses through digital classes, and the study material is available online in the form of videos. Everything is available free of cost; however, students who want certificates will need to get registered.

India’s Chief Economic Advisor, Arvind Subramanian has also prepared a series of lectures on the Indian economy which can be accessed via Swayam and Swayam Prabha. The course structure of these online and digital classrooms will cover every aspect of education from class nine onwards, and will also include preparatory courses for competitive exams, including modules for preparation of IITs and IAS exams.

If not Internet, then DTH:

For the remote areas which still lack the facilities of a stable Internet connection, the Government will use alternative methods of communication. Swayam Prabha aims to tap into the potential utilization of Direct-to-Home (DTH) Service, and plans are already in place for setting up of a dish antenna that would give students access to 32 educational channels run by the HRD ministry. According to Dr. Pankaj Mittal, the Additional Secretary in UGC, these channels will broadcast new content of a duration of at least four hours, and this would be repeated five more times in a day, thus allowing students to view this content according to their convenience.

The online classrooms offered by government and non-profit organizations alike work towards one common goal: to provide equal quality of education to students in rural areas. These classroom programs are bridging the gap in quality education, and are thus empowering these students to do more with their lives. Thanks to these active initiatives, students in rural areas are also becoming aware of the variety of career paths they could follow, a privilege that they’d never had before.

Methods of teaching and learning processes make all the difference when it comes to education. These are also the main factors responsible for the stark contrast in the quality of education in the rural and urban areas. Online education can bridge this gap and bring to rural students the education they most rightly deserve.

  • Tartisan has a detailed three-pronged exploration strategy for the Kenbridge Deposit.
  • First, analysis of the structural and deformational setting of the Kenbridge Project through surface mapping and geophysics as Tartisan’s data analysis from the Canadian Arrow Mines Limited acquisition shows a number of very interesting mineralized zones that do not appear to have been fully explored
  • Second, MineMap Pty Ltd of Perth, Australia has been evaluating the resource base of the Kenbridge deposit from both open pit and underground perspectives.

Toronto, Ontario – Tartisan Nickel Corp. (CSE: TN, FSE: A2DPCM) (“Tartisan”, or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that strategic exploration on the Kenbridge Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project, Kenora, Ontario has commenced.

As previously press released, Tartisan has a detailed three-pronged exploration strategy for the Kenbridge Deposit. First, analysis of the structural and deformational setting of the Kenbridge Project through surface mapping and geophysics as Tartisan’s data analysis from the Canadian Arrow Mines Limited acquisition shows a number of very interesting mineralized zones that do not appear to have been fully explored.

Second, MineMap Pty Ltd of Perth, Australia has been evaluating the resource base of the Kenbridge deposit from both open pit and underground perspectives. Key to the relevance of this effort is that the principal resource consultant for MineMap is a past Falconbridge employee and has a detailed prior knowledge of the Kenbridge Deposit. This resource calculation, with the insights into potential future mine planning that a resource distribution can provide, is a key factor in updating the NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Kenbridge Nickel-Copper Deposit.

Third, as previously announced, Tartisan has contracted Abitibi Geophysics Inc. Thunder Bay, Ontario office to provide the geophysical surveys that will define the geophysical character of the Kenbridge Deposit from the mineralized outcrops at surface to the high-grade drill-intersected mineralization at the base of the 632m shaft and below within the Kenbridge deformation zone. Abitibi will use this data to survey the rest of the northeast-trending deformation zone as well as on subsidiary related structural settings seen on the Kenbridge property.

Tartisan Nickel Corp CEO Mark Appleby said, “Since the original magnetic survey by Falconbridge Nickel in 1955, approximately 10 detailed geophysical surveys have been conducted over the Kenbridge Deposit and Property, but none were deep-seeking geophysical studies. Since our purchase of the Canadian Arrow assets in February 2018, we have undertaken a careful review of the asset. Our geophysical programs should put our whole geophysical database into a real discovery context so that when we go to drill the Kenbridge Property, we will have the best possible target definition.”

Tartisan will continue the strategic exploration program by evaluating surface exploration works, evaluate core stored on site and facilitate the surface geophysical survey. Ryder & Associates of Bradford, Ontario and Steel & Associates of Brampton, Ontario are continuing to assist in advancing the Kenbridge asset and they have been an integral part of the Company’s review and analysis since the Canadian Arrow Mines Limited purchase.

As a note, the Kenbridge Deposit occurs within a vertically dipping, lenticular gabbro and gabbro breccia with surface dimensions of 250m by 60m and sits within a significant northeast-trending deformation zone, as shown by deformation textures and shearing in the deposit host rocks. Other structural deformation zone orientations have been mapped on the Kenbridge Project including north, east, and northwest-trending. East-trending deformation zones appear to be host the ultramafic rock units implicit in nickel mineralization at Denmark Lake and Overflow Lake, located to the southeast of the Kenbridge Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Deposit.

As previously described in the Company’s CSE Monthly Progress Reports, and the Company’s Financial Disclosure Documents, Tartisan was served with a statement of claim on June 12, 2018 by a supplier under contract to the Company. The Company has filed a statement of defence and counter claim in the amount of $1,050,000 against the supplier. The Company intends to vigorously defend this case and advance the counter claim.

$GLI.ca Glacier Lake Completes Exploration at Silver Vista and Hackett Properties $TUE.ca

Posted by AGORACOM at 9:29 AM on Tuesday, September 4th, 2018

https://s3.amazonaws.com/s3.agoracom.com/public/companies/logos/564613/hub/GlacierLake.png

  • Glacier Lake Resources Inc. completed 2 reconnaissance surface exploration programs on its Silver Vista and Hackett properties
  • Silver Vista, the company’s principal project,  is a large, bulk-tonnage, clastic-sediment-hosted, disseminated copper-silver deposit
  • SV18-06 returned 153.4 meters averaging 28.9 grams per tonne silver equivalent

EXPLORATION ACTIVITY UPDATE- SILVER VISTA AND HACKETT PROPERTIES

Glacier Lake Resources Inc. has completed two reconnaissance surface exploration programs on its Silver Vista and Hackett properties. The Silver Vista property is the company’s principal project and is located near Smithers, B.C., with a focus on the discovery of a large, bulk-tonnage, clastic-sediment-hosted, disseminated copper-silver deposit. The Hackett property is located in the Sheslay area of northwestern British Columbia, strategically adjoins the eastern border of the Hat property, owned by Doubleview Capital Corp. and actively being explored by Hudbay Minerals Inc., the company’s joint venture partner. The work on both properties was completed by Exploration Facilitation Unlimited Inc.

Silver Vista property

The “MR Zone” on the Silver Vista property was drilled in the 1st quarter of 2018, with seven holes, totalling 1,273 metres completed. All drilling was directed at the “MR Zone”, which represented the first drilling on the property since the initial program of 1,252.5 meters in 1991/1992. Highlights of the recent drill program include Hole SV18-06 which returned multiple horizons of mineralization over the entire length of the hole, with the entire drill hole length of 153.4 meters averaging 28.9 grams per tonne silver equivalent, (see press release May 23, 2018). Hole SV18-06 was the northernmost hole and the mineralized zone is open and undrilled to the west, north and northwest. Assay results from these two work programs are pending.

The “MR Zone” discovery (1990) comprises a mineralized showing in a logging road-cut. The property has been extensively logged recently, and a network of newly constructed roads was the focus of this summer exploration program to discover additional mineralization in outcrop exposures or boulders.

Work performed included till sampling using a backpack drill and prospecting/mapping. A total of 7 till samples and 25 rock grab samples were collected from three target areas (West, SE, Circle Road), away from the “MR Zone’ area. Outcrop exposure is limited, due to the slight, rolling topography, but weak observations of copper mineralization (oxide stain) were observed at all three locations. The West and SE Target areas were surveyed using a GDD Beep Mat to detect near-surface EM/Mag conductors, with one anomaly noted. Further details on the Silver Vista property can be found in the National Instrument 43-101 report on the property located under the company’s SEDAR profile.

Hackett property

The Hackett property is located approximately 38 kilometres northwest of the village of Telegraph Creek, and approximately 95 kilometres west-southwest of Dease Lake. The western border of the Hackett property is less than a kilometre away from Doubleview’s Lisle zone, and the Hoey Minfile prospect is located near Big Creek on the boundary with the Hat property. Exploration activity focused on expanding on the mineral showings discovered in 2014, related to the Hoey Minfile occurrence, which lies on the boundary with Doubleview. On the Hackett property the 2014 discovery mineral showing returned 24 and 594 parts per billion gold, and 598 and 2,970 parts per million copper, respectively.

Reykjavik / August 31, 2018 –St-Georges Eco-Mining Corp. (CSE: SX) (OTC: SXOOF) (FSE: 85G1) would like to update its shareholders on its on-going corporate developments.

Recent corporate events and managerial changes have allowed the company to review its current mineral processing technology initiatives as well as its prioritization of its mineral exploration efforts. St-Georges is now adding to its team of mining consultants and contractors to accelerate the development of its projects and has also initiated discussions with third parties to investigate the potential to joint-venture or farm-out some of its mineral properties that it owns or has option to acquire. A summary of the Company’s activities as well as a recap of the state of its blockchain technology subsidiaries has been provided below.

BLOCKCHAIN SUBSIDIARIES

ZeU Crypto Networks

ZeU Crypto Networks is advancing its listing process as planned, while simultaneously strengthening and establishing its technical team. The company will publish updates as materiality requires it. The management, employees or consultants working with ZeU will not comment publicly or privately on matters of strategy or on the business model it is implementing.

Borealis EHF

St-Georges’ subsidiary, Borealis EHF is currently working within Iceland and Malta’s regulatory frameworks in order to obtain the proper licensing for the purpose of establishing a blockchain commodity and derivative market place. The subsidiary is evaluating its financial needs and expects to hold discussions with potential strategic partners

MINERAL PROCESSING AND EXPLORATION INITIATIVES

Iceland

Hydro Electric Dam Option: Islensk Vatnsorka EHF (IV)

Iceland Resources ehf board of directors has decided to execute its option to acquire 15% of IV for 50 million ISK (approximately $600,000). In order to meet its obligation, St-Georges will issue a 5-year 6% capitalized debenture. In addition, Iceland Resources will appoint Mr. Frank Dumas to the board of IV and will have first right of refusal on all new equity financing done by Islensk Vatnsorka.

For more information please refer to the press release dated August 15, 2018.

Fall campaign and Drone flights

Work is ongoing on the Icelandic projects and a technical team will be in the field at the Trollaskagi and Thormodsdalur projects in September for mapping, sampling, trenching and collecting aerial imaging of key target areas that were previously identified. Work is ongoing to gain approval for drilling in Thormodsdalur from the local municipality. The company still has six other licences pending that are currently being processed by the government.

Rare Earths and Niobium Findings

St-Georges’ mineral exploration contractors have been active on the “Muscovite Mines” group of claims owned by St-Georges. The company acquired these claims initially in a joint acquisition through claims designation (electronic map staking) with another mineral exploration company. The other company had also entered into an agreement with private claims owners, some of which were St-Georges directors and officers, for the core claims of these projects that are historical mines. The other mineral exploration company underwent a change of business in 2017 and sold its participation to St-Georges. The core claims of these projects are currently owned by Mark Billings, Frank Dumas and other minority partners.

While the claims acquired by St-Georges were acquired with the objective of securing a zone of interest around the historical mines, it was not the intention of the company to be the main exploration operator but to support its partner of the time to which it was providing technological solutions, while guaranteeing itself a supply of mineral material to test and develop metallurgical processes.

One of these sets of claims referred to as the Xavier Mine Property yielded results worth reporting. The 2018 field work has exposed some alkaline intrusive occurrences from which grab samples taken from surface outcrops have returned significant Rare Earth Elements results. The two best samples yielded 6780 ppm of Cerium (Ce), 2840 ppm of Lanthanum (La), 2690 ppm of Neodymium (Nd) 766 ppm of Praseodymium (Pr), 732 ppm of Yttrium (Y) for a total of over 1.5% REE and 5080 ppm of Cerium (Ce), 2140 ppm of Lanthanum (La), 2380 ppm of Neodymium (Nd), 1305 ppm Yttrium (Y) and results in excess of 2500 ppm of Nobium (Nb). Further testing for Nobium and a compilation of the work done are planned.

For further information on the muscovite mines group of properties please refer to St-Georges’ press release dated April 28th 2016 “St-Georges Partners with Active Growth to Explore Lepidolite & Muscovite Pegmatites” and press release dated November 13th 2017 “St-Georges Updates on Share Issuance & Warrants Execution”.

Isoukustouc (Kings of the North Subsidiary)

Earlier this summer, the company collected several hundred kilos of blast samples from the B40 showing section of the Isoukustouc project. This material is being used for metallurgical testing and approximately 100kg should be sent out for independent testing in the coming month. In order to test the scalability of a newly developed Ferro-Nickel metallurgical process, additional tonnage should be collected with heavy machinery in late September or early October.

Historical assay values obtained on selected grab samples yielded 17.00% copper, 3.84% nickel and 0.20% cobalt. The 2012 surface sample program executed by St-Georges on the surroundings of the B40 section of the project yielded 1.85% nickel and 0.335% copper on average. An exploration program of 2,343 line-km of airborne magnetic geophysical survey with 100m spacing was completed in 2011.

Julie Nickel

The company has initiated permitting for a multi-stage drilling effort on Julie in the coming months. A team should be on the project in late September to map, sample and prepare the ground for a multi-tonne bulk sampling to give the company enough material to advance some of its metallurgical initiative pertaining to Nickel and Cobalt. Some initial drilling might occur this fall if conditions allow. The potential for a larger drilling effort is being looked into for the winter of 2019.

The Julie Nickel Discovery best result to date is a 11.64 meters channel intersection at surface that graded 1.82% Nickel, 0.29% Copper and 0.04% Cobalt.

Le Royal Lithium

Earlier this summer a team of prospectors accompanied by geologists participated in a 5-day surface campaign on the property. Pegmatite outcrops and geophysical targets were the main focus of interest. Samples from Le Royal should be sent later this fall to Australia to be processed by Strategic Metallurgy PTY. This project is jointly own by St-Georges (90%) and Lepidico (ASX:LPD) 10%.

Lithium Processing Technology Update

Test work is ongoing to concentrate lithium fines in clays. Resulting higher concentrations of lithium should allow more aggressive recovery methods. Very fine particles and crystal characteristics are the key focus of the current research and testing initiative.

In parallel the team is experimenting with a hybrid approach to mixed acids. Success of this approach should allow the elimination of the calcining step of processing.

Final purification stages of the process, adjusted to the particular resources impurities, will combine membranes, resins and liquid separation.

Yves Caron P.Geo. (OGQ #548) a Qualified Person under the National Instrument 43-101 has reviewed and approved the geological content of the current press release.

This CEO Is Cashing In On Female #Gamers (By Giving Them What They Want) #Kuuhubb $KUU.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 12:07 PM on Friday, August 31st, 2018

  • Mobile games are exploding
  • Women make up almost half of gamers
  • Although boys (and young men) still come to mind for most people when asked what a “gamer” looks like, the percent of women playing video games is now up to 45%

Gorman believes women are the future of gaming — and that gaming companies need to embrace this overlooked demographic in their game design to succeed in the next wave of development. Her solution is to bring gender diversity to an industry that is perversely unaware of it. Her company’s mission is to focus on creating games that are artificial intelligence-based and specifically designed to help players relax and de-stress. The company’s debut mobile app is called Confetti Casino, a Vegas-style slots game.

There are several new trends that could help Gorman achieve her goals:

Mobile games are exploding

Over the next 4 years, Gorman says that “all growth in gaming revenue will be on mobile platforms.” At this time, 64% of women and 38% of men already prefer using mobile over other gaming platforms. Gorman attributes this growth to the convenience and accessibility of mobile. Mobile games are more approachable and offer quick play sessions during lulls in the day. In this way, mobile games can become core parts of our lives, just as text messaging, online shopping, and social networking have. Traditional console and PC games require expensive equipment that facilitates longer, more intense play sessions. Often, the extended gaming time spent on those devices can be a problem for players, as when teens avoid dinner or homework to play them. However, a mobile game player only needs a smartphone and appropriate apps to participate. Plus, both mobile phones and the apps they run are becoming more powerful and  more graphically realistic, making them more appealing every year.

Gorman also points out that Millennials and Gen X-ers grew up playing games on their mobile devices. With the exponential rise of smartphones, it simply makes sense that a fun childhood hobby will continue into adulthood.

Women like using games to destress and to be social

When it comes to mobile games, what do women want? Fort Mason Games surveyed 3,000 women to find out. 93% said

Kate Gorman, CEO of Fort Mason GamesFort Mason Games

they play slots games on their phones and tablets to relieve stress. Fort Mason Games also found that women tend to be highly social when it comes to mobile gaming. Confetti Casino was designed with that in mind. It’s easy for players to bring new friends into the game, as well as forming new friendships with other players. The game encourages players to send and receive HeartGrams that pay in-game rewards. Gorman says this feature has resulted in highly positive App Store reviews and more engagement and fun for participants.

The games women love to play will gross billions in revenue

There are over 2.5 billion players in the socially-driven mobile gaming ecosystem. Social casino games alone are projected to gross $4.2 billion in revenue just this year. That’s money that will be left on the virtual table if gaming companies continue to ignore the female gaming community and its particular needs and interests. According to a Google study, 60% of female mobile game players surveyed feel that fewer than 1 in 3 games are made with women in mind.

Gorman advises gaming companies — especially ones with male-dominated leadership — to remember that female audiences are different. They may not necessarily value the same themes, artwork, and gaming mechanics as male audiences. It’s important to consider what female audiences would find relatable and enjoyable to play, but it’s equally important to ensure the gaming experience is respectful to women. In many games, female characters are portrayed in an overly-sexualized fashion that is meant to serve the male audience’s interests.

Gorman says she is aware of how demeaning this can be for women, so she created Confetti Casino Slots with a more sensitive and respectful approach. The in-game characters are fully clothed, and the tone of the game portrays a simple party-vibe as opposed to one of sexual conquest.

Forging the future of women in gaming

Gorman is one of very few women CEOs in mobile gaming. She’s on a mission to build a billion dollar mobile entertainment business — and she’s doing it by creating a gaming community for and by women. With several new games under development, look to Fort Mason Games to lead the way in the female future of mobile gaming, that is, an experience that’s mobile, socially-focused, and female-centric. For companies looking to take a bigger piece of the pie in the coming years, the female audience is a relatively untapped and underserved population.
