St Georges $SX.ca Provides #Lithium Processing Update & New Canadian Focused Subsidiary

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 3:49 PM on Thursday, October 5th, 2017

  • Provides update on the progress of a few of its business initiatives
  • Received in Montreal a first delivery of material from the Bonnie Claire sedimentary lithium project, which is 100% owned by Iconic Minerals (TSX-V: ICM)

Montreal, Quebec / October 5, 2017 – St-Georges Platinum & Base Metals ltd (CSE: SX) (OTC: SXOOF) (FSE: 85G1) is pleased to update its shareholders and stakeholders on the progress of a few of its business initiatives.

Lithium Research Initiative Update

The Company has received in Montreal a first delivery of material from the Bonnie Claire sedimentary lithium project, which is 100% owned by Iconic Minerals (TSX-V: ICM). St-Georges’ metallurgists have devised a protocol to extensively test the material in order to prepare a multi-tonne larger bulk test in a pilot plant environment later this fall in collaboration with St-Georges R&D partners. Please refer to St-Georges’ press release dated August 10, 2017 for details regarding the relationship between St-Georges and Iconic Minerals.

St-Georges’ research team will be working on the optimization of the lithium recovery process specific to the Bonnie Claire project’s mineral composition and will be reviewing the potential economic recovery of secondary commodities such as strontium. The approach can be summed up to a combination of hydrometallurgy and mineral process configured in such a way that it optimizes the liquid separation of the valuable elements. St-Georges has now moved away from the stage of the proof of concept and is currently characterizing and identifying the key performance indicators for each step of the lithium recovery pertinent to Bonnie Claire’s mineral material.

New Canadian Focused Subsidiary

Mr. Mark Billings, chairman of the board of St-Georges, will become the president of a new subsidiary of St-Georges that will be receiving certain assets of the company, including the nickel, copper & cobalt project known as the Isoukustouc Project, which is located on the Quebec North Shore, north of the deep-sea port town of Baie-Comeau and on the territory of the Quebec Government Initiative known as the “Northern Plan”.

About Isoukustouc

Owned 100% by St-Georges, the Isoukustouc Project is located 75 km north of the town of Baie-Comeau on the Quebec North Shore and is composed of 32 claims representing an approximate total of 1,800 hectares or 18 square kilometers. Previously reported historical assay values obtained on selected grab samples yielded grades of 17.00% wt. copper, 3.84% wt. nickel and 0.20% wt. cobalt. The 2012 surface sample program from the B40 section 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.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

“Frank Dumas’

FRANK DUMAS, PRESIDENT & CEO

About St-Georges

St-Georges is developing new technologies to solve the biggest environmental problems in the mining industry. If these new technologies are successful, they should improve the financial bottom line of current mining producers. The potential success of these technologies would also involve upgrading certain current known metal resources to economic status while addressing the environmental and social acceptability issues.

The Company controls directly or indirectly all of the active mineral tenures in Iceland. It also explores for nickel on the Julie Nickel Project & for industrial minerals on Quebec’s North Shore and for lithium and rare metals in Northern Quebec and in the Abitibi area. Headquartered in Montreal, St-Georges’ stock is listed on the CSE under the symbol SX, on the US OTC under the Symbol SXOOF and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol 85G1.

Microsoft $MSFT could become the #Ticketmaster of #Esports analyst says $GMBL

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 3:17 PM on Thursday, October 5th, 2017
  • Microsoft is headed for a “sustained period of accelerating growth” driven by its cloud computing, office productivity software and potential esports cash cows, according to Canaccord Genuity.
  • “Perhaps Microsoft could become the Ticketmaster of eSports, maybe they could run leagues,” the firm’s analyst writes.

Microsoft’s growth could get a boost from its latest Xbox launch as well as its exploration of the growing esports industry, according to one Wall Street analyst.

Canaccord Genuity upgraded Microsoft shares to buy from hold Wednesday, noting that the Xbox maker could give more credibility to the budding world of esports, which is centered on video game tournaments and already attracts thousands of participants and viewers.

“In our view, this is both an area of future internal development and prospective M&A,” wrote analyst Richard Davis. “With regard to M&A, perhaps Microsoft could become the Ticketmaster of eSports, maybe they could run leagues.”

Microsoft is set to release its latest generation of Xbox, called the Xbox One X, in November. Davis added that Microsoft‘s office productivity programs and its cloud computing platform, Azure, could also accelerate growth.

Shares of Microsoft rose 0.5 percent shortly after Thursday’s market open. The company’s stock is up 20 percent year to date through Wednesday.

The analyst raised his price target for Microsoft shares to $86, which is 15 percent higher than Wednesday’s closing price. His old target was $76.

Esports are turning a lot of heads lately. Industry revenue is expected to hit $1.1 billion in 2019, and roughly 76 percent of esports fans claim the virtual tournaments are overtaking their time spent watching traditional sporting events, according to research firm Newzoo.

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft recently made headlines by purchasing one of seven teams for the Overwatch League, a popular online game produced by Activision Blizzard.

“For brands, media, and entertainment companies, esports provides a chance to capitalize on the favorite pastime of digital natives and Millennials: playing games and watching game content,” Newzoo’s analysts wrote in the firm’s annual esports market report.

Who Is Augusta Industries $AAO.ca Why Are The World’s Biggest Companies Their Clients And Why Did They Just Announce A Spin Out?

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 11:36 AM on Thursday, October 5th, 2017

Augusta Industries (AAO:TSXV) is a superstar company that very few people small cap investors have ever heard of.  More than just lip service, take a quick look at the client rolls of their 2 subsidiaries. Once you do, you’ll understand why Augusta just announced a spin out transaction that will split the subsidiaries into two companies, making shareholders very happy.

SUBSIDIARIES OVERVIEW

1]  FOX-TEK – World leading solutions to various sectors including the oil and gas industry. With non- intrusive technologies including: fiber optic sensors and electric field mapping systems; FOX-TEK is able to accurately measure changes that could negatively impact clients’ operations, the list of which includes the following Tier-1 Energy Companies.

How strong are FOX-TEK’s client relationships? Read the following article written by Enbridge and published on its own website:

On it’s own, FOX-TEK would be a great small cap company – but they only tell half of the Augusta story.

2]  Marcon International – an industrial supply contractor servicing the energy sector and a number of US Government entities. Marcon’s principal business is the sale and distribution of industrial parts and equipment to clients that include government departments and global energy companies.

SPINOUT TO UNLOCK VALUE OF EACH COMPANY

Investors can now begin to understand why Augusta wants to separate each of these fantastic companies into their own companies.  Specifically, Augusta Industries is aiming to deliver $25M in additional shareholder value with its Sensor Technologies spin out announcement on September 28th.  At the time of “Spin out”, Augusta will own 50 Million shares of Sensor Tech, and 100% of Marcon International, unleashing the potential for explosive growth through its multinational relationships and state of the art monitoring technology.

Augusta is a burgeoning beast in the Oil & Gas service sector with its multi-faceted approach to creating shareholder value for its shareholders. With a current 10M$ market cap and an anticipated 25$ million of value to be delivered to shareholders through the spin-out, in addition to the Second Business Unit Augusta Owns “Marcon International”, $3.8 Mil In Sales Yr end 2016. A spin out of Marcon can be valued at 3 x Revenue. Augusta stands to deliver both immediate value for current shareholders and long-term value for anyone else that discovers this unknown smallcap gem!

GGX Gold Phase II Drilling Program intercepts 10.8 g/t Gold over 0.3 Meters at Gold Drop

Posted by AGORACOM at 9:49 AM on Wednesday, October 4th, 2017

 

  • Phase 2 of Drill Program now complete
  • 160m strike length
  • 10.8 g/t Gold over 0.3 Meters at Gold Drop

Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) – GGX Gold Corp. (TSXV: GGX) (the “Company” or “GGX”) is pleased to announce the completion of Phase II diamond drilling on the Gold Drop Property near Greenwood, BC and receipt of additional drill core sample analytical results from drill holes COD17-15 to COD17-20. The Company recently ceased diamond drilling on the property and is waiting for additional Phase II core sample analyses which are expected any time.

 

The second phase of the diamond drill program aimed at exploring and defining the COD Vein, a Dentonia/Jewel style quartz vein, located in the Gold Drop Southwest Zone. Trenching during 2017 has exposed the northeast – southwest striking COD Vein for over 160 meter strike length.

The Company had previously received analytical results for 68 trench channel samples collected at the COD Vein. These samples returned anomalous to high grade values for gold, including high values of 43.2 grams / tonne (g/t) /t Gold and 224 g/t Silver (News Release of July 26, 2017). The first batch of 2017 drill core samples for the COD Vein returned up to 24.1 g/t Gold and 192 g/t Silver (News Release of Aug 28, 2017). The second batch of drill core samples also returned significant gold and silver values including a broad intersection in hole COD17-14 grading 4.59 g/t Gold and 38.64 g/t Silver over 16.03 meters core length with a high grade core grading 10.96 g/t Gold and 89.86 g/t Silver over 5.97 meters core length (News Release of Sept 7, 2017).

 

The Phase II drilling program aimed to delineate the COD Vein in the Gold Drop Southwest Zone from 2 pad locations in the northern extent of the trench, 100 and 160 m north of the COD mine shaft. The Phase II drilling totaled 12 holes (687 meters).

 

To view the graphic in its original size, please click here

 

Drill core was geologically logged and sampled at the Greenwood facility. 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. The samples from holes 15 to 20 were also analyzed for 48 Elements by Four Acid and ICP-AES / ICP-MS. Quality control (QC) samples are inserted at regular intervals.

 

To view the graphic in its original size, please click here

 

The analytical results listed below are from holes COD17-16 to COD17-20, testing the COD Vein. Since true widths cannot be accurately determined from the information available the core lengths (meters) are reported. The Gold and Silver analyses are reported in g/t. The intervals listed in the table below are from the gold and silver bearing vein and / or adjacent low grade mineralized host rock. The Phase II drill core sampling also revealed other intervals with low grade gold in veining and / or host rock.

 

HOLE ID From (m) To (m) Interval length (m) Au g/t Ag g/t
COD17-16 35.56 35.86 0.3 10.8 123
COD17-16 52.21 52.33 0.12 11.45 99.3
COD17-19 20.37 21.34 0.97 1.42 9.88
COD17-19 49.03 49.41 0.38 2.28 16.4

 

“ We are very pleased with the results of the drilling, especially given the presence of significant gold and silver values along the COD Vein including a broad intersection in hole COD 17-14 grading 4.59 g/t gold and 38.64 g/t silver over a 16.03 metre core length” said Barry Brown Chief Executive Officer of GGX Gold.  “We look forward to receiving the results of the remaining assays and planning future work on the property.”
