Pacific North West Capital to Change its Name to NeWage Metals Inc. $PFN.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:06 AM on Thursday, June 9th, 2016

  • Mr. Harry Barr, Chairman and CEO noted that to better reflect the Company’s business plan and with the addition of a second “Green Metal Division” the Board of Directors of PFN have approved a name change of the Company, from Pacific North West Capital to “NewAge Metals Inc.”

No Share Consolidation -Share Structure to remain the same

June 9, 2016 / Vancouver, Canada – Pacific North West Capital Corp. (“PFN”, or the “Company”) (TSX.V: PFN; Frankfurt: P7J.F; OTCQB: PAWEF) – Mr. Harry Barr, Chairman and CEO noted that to better reflect the Company’s business plan and with the addition of a second “Green Metal Division” the Board of Directors of PFN have approved a name change of the Company, from Pacific North West Capital to “NewAge Metals Inc.” The website NewAgeMetals.com is near completion. There will be no change to the corporate structure (ie: no share consolidation) and in the meantime the Company will continue to aggressively pursue its business plan. The name change will be subject to regulatory approval and is anticipated to be completed within 90 days.

In April 2016 the Company added a Lithium Division, Lithium Canada Development Inc. (LI Canada) to its’ Platinum Group Metal Division (PGMD). In the U.S., the Company is expanding and developing its lithium division; the Board believes NewAge Metals Inc. better reflects the Go Forward Plan for the Company. For additional corporate information please go to www.pfncapital.com and Opt in to be on the Company’s news dissemination list.

About The Company’s Lithium Division

The Company’s new Lithium Division will focus on the acquisition, exploration and development of Lithium Projects in Canada. In the United States the Company will use its wholly owned U.S.A subsidiary to acquire and develop projects in active mining camps in Nevada, Arizona and California.

Management believes that these new age metals, Lithium, PGM’s and Rare Earths, have robust macro trends with surging demands and limited supply. Going forward, this new division will explore for the minerals needed to fuel the demand for energy storage and other core 21st Century Technologies.

The Company has a growing portfolio of Lithium projects. The Clayton Valley Forks Li Project in Nevada is a recent Lithium brine project acquired by the Company. (PFN News Releases April 25th, 2016, May 9th, 2016 and May 24th, 2016) The Company also has hard rock Lithium projects in Canada.

Lithium and Platinum group metal prices have improved dramatically in recent months. Lithium supplies remain in deficit relative to their demand. Both metals groups are used for the expanding worldwide automobile industry (conventional and electric). In the case of PGM’s, demand is increasing for autocatalysts, a key component for reducing toxic emissions for automotive, gasoline and diesel engines. In regards to Lithium, there is an ever increasing demand for batteries in cellphones, laptops, electric cars, solar storage, wireless charging and renewable energy products.

CLIENT FEATURE: Nevada Energy Metals (BFF: TSX-V) Powering Our Green Future $BFF.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 1:42 PM on Tuesday, June 7th, 2016

TSX-V: BFF, (OTC Pink: SSMLF)

Why Lithium?

  • Major companies such as Sony and Panasonic got behind lithium as an anchor material in a possible successor to the lead-acid battery paradigm.
  • Although it took decades, lithium-based batteries are now the industry standard.
  • Lithium has limited supply and increasing demand.
  • Lithium seems untouched by economic downturns.
  • Climate change has lead to the frenzied search for green energy solution
  • Because of its high reactivity, lithium does not occur as a pure element in nature but is contained within minerals in a range of hard rock types or in brine solutions (elements contained in salty water) in salt lakes, “salars.” Lithium’s primary driver for growth is:

Batteries and grid-scale energy storage:

  • Most important use of lithium is in rechargeable lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles, grid-scale energy storage, phones, laptops, cameras, gaming consoles and hundreds of other electronic devices.
  • Lithium-ion batteries are increasingly used for bikes, power tools, forklifts, cranes and other industrial equipment. In essence, lithium powers modern technology.

Benchmark Mineral Intelligence estimates that the

“EV market will grow five-fold between 2015 and 2020 while the market for stationary storage will increase 8-fold.”

We have already seen Tesla increase the land holding of their $5 billion under-construction lithium-ion battery factory and Faraday Future strike a deal to build a $1 billion electric car plant.

Nevada Energy Metals Acquires 100% Ownership in Clayton Valley BFF-1 Lithium Project

  • Announced acquisition of 60 claims in Clayton Valley, Esmeralda County, Nevada
  • 250 meters from Albemarle Corporation’s Silver Peak lithium mine and brine processing operations
  • Also the location of Pure Energy Minerals’ 816,000 metric tonnes Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE) Inferred Resource
  • 3.5 hours away from Tesla’s Gigafactory, which has a planned annual lithium-ion battery production capacity of 35 gigawatt-hours per year by 2020

Nevada Energy Metals Expans Lithium Exploration Potential at San Emidio

Company has increased the exploration potential of the San Emidio property by adding 69 additional claims to its land position. The property now includes 155 claims (approximately 3,100 acres/1255 hectares) in the San Emidio Desert, Washoe County, Nevada, 95 km northeast of Reno.

Importantly, historical results by previous operators exploring the playa for lithium reported lithium value in sediments up to 312 ppm and up to 80 ppm lithium in brine from a depth of 1.5 meters.

Projects

  • Acquired, by staking, 100 placer claims covering 2000 acres (809 hectares) at Teels Marsh, Nevada.
  • Property, called Teels Marsh West is highly prospective for Lithium brines and is located approximately 48 miles northwest of Clayton Valley and the Rockwood Lithium Mine, North America’s only producing brine based Lithium mine supporting lithium production since 1967.
  • Access to Teels Marsh is via dirt road, west of Highway 95 and northwest of Highway 360.

Teels Marsh West is a highly prospective Lithium exploration project, 100% owned without any royalties, located on the western part of a large evaporation pond, or playa (also known as a salar). Structural analysis reveals that Teels Marsh is bounded by faults and is tectonically active. Tectonic activities supply additional local permeability that could be provided by the faults that bound the graben and sub-basins.

  • Located 12 km (7.5 miles) northeast of Albemarle Corporation’s (formerly Rockwood Lithium),Silver Peaksolar evaporation ponds. Silver Peak is the only producing brine-based lithium facility in North America.
  • 60-40 earn-in joint venture with Dajin Resources Corp.
  • In addition to its proximity to Silver Peak, the property is 20 km (12.5 miles) east-northeast of Pure Energy Minerals’ Clayton Valley exploration project.
  • Preliminary data from ongoing exploration activities on the property, suggest that Alkali Lake could be situated on one of the most prospective areas in the entire basin.
  • Lithium assay results from sediment sampling carried out on the Alkali Lake property confirmed the presence of near-surface lithium at grades ranging from 73 ppm to 382 ppm.

  • Early stage exploration property, located in the northern foothills of the Alaska Range, which contains VMS (volcanogenic massive sulfide) mineralization.
  • Property is located in the east portion of the Bonnifield Mining District, central Alaska, approximately 60 mi (96 km) south of Fairbanks, Alaska (Figure 1).
  • Property consists of 36 quarter-section State of Alaska mining claims (Galleon 1-36; Appendix 1) held by Anglo Alaska Gold Corporation (AAGC). Rock Star Resources Inc (RSRI) holds the rights to a 100% earn-in interest under an agreement with AAGC to pay for exploration and make required payments.
  • Access to the Property currently is only by helicopter, or by trail from a nearby airstrip, however, strong potential exists for future development of a road connecting the Property with an existing mine road system to the west.
  • The claims are subject to a 3% Net Production Royalty to the State of Alaska beginning 3.5 years after mine start-up. All claims comprising the Galleon Property are in good standing at the time of this writing.

Energy metal markets are booming

The age of electrification across the transportation sector, the solar panel revolution, and Tesla’s battery gigafactory are igniting a battle for the cheapest battery. That will transform lithium into a boom-time mineral and the hottest commodity on the energy investor’s radar. It has been easy to take lithium for granted. This wonder mineral is the backbone of our everyday lives, popping up in everything from the glass in our windows to our mountains of electronics.

And while investors have long appreciated the steady rise in demand for this preferred mineral, the number of new applications continues to multiply. Smart phones, tablets, laptops, and other consumer electronics demand more lithium. But the largest driver for future lithium use will be in electric vehicles and home batteries for solar panels. That has lithium on the verge a boom for which supply can no longer be taken for granted.

Explor Increases Kidd Township Property $EXS.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 4:13 PM on Monday, June 6th, 2016

Exs_logo

  • Announced the acquisition of 1 patented claim totalling 64.7 hectares situated in the Porcupine Mining division, District of Cochrane, Carnegie Township, Ontario. This additional claim is northwest of the Glencore Kidd Creek Mine
  • Will pay a total of $6,000 and issue 200,000 common shares for an Option to acquire a 100% interest in the additional Kidd Township patented claim. The seller has retained a 2.0% NSR in the property.

ROUYN-NORANDA, QUÉBEC–(June 6, 2016) – Explor Resources Inc. (“Explor” or “the Corporation”) (TSX VENTURE:EXS)(OTCQX:EXSFF)(FRANKFURT:E1H1)(BERLIN:E1H1) is pleased to announce the acquisition of 1 patented claim totalling 64.7 hectares situated in the Porcupine Mining division, District of Cochrane, Carnegie Township, Ontario. This additional claim is northwest of the Glencore Kidd Creek Mine.

Explor Resources Inc. will pay a total of $6,000 and issue 200,000 common shares for an Option to acquire a 100% interest in the additional Kidd Township patented claim. The seller has retained a 2.0% NSR in the property. This acquisition is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Corporation’s Kidd Township Group of Properties are located to the North, South, West and East of the Glencore Kidd Creek Mine, located approximately 20 km north of Timmins, Ontario. This additional claim is north to the Kidd Township property, and approximately one kilometer Northwest of the Glencore Kidd Creek Mine site. This acquisition increases Explor’s land position in the area to 2,805.20 hectares. The most obvious topographical feature in the area is the Glencore Kidd Creek open pit mine, located in the central portion of Explor’s Kidd Township group of Properties.

The property is located in a Greenstone Belt composed mainly of sequences of Meta-Volcanic rocks cut by faults and deformation zones that lie in a NW-SE direction. There are many suites of Mafic Volcanic rocks as well. Excellent access to the property is provided by Hwy 655.

Exploration drilling completed by Explor to date has revealed a Major Fault Structure running to the west of the Glencore Kidd Creek Mine in a NW-SE direction. A thorough review of all existing geophysical data appears to support these findings. Drilling by Falconbridge in 1998 to the southwest of the Glencore Kidd Creek Mine (Hole # K26-01) returned 4.7m in which 4 of the 5 samples returned Zinc values from 4200 – 8900 ppm and Copper values that ranged from 700 – 2280 ppm. The Magnetic Anomaly associated with these results appears to continue onto Explor’s property holdings. A series of untested AEM (Airborne Electromagnetic) conductors detected on the Kidd Township Property to the west, south and southeast of the existing Kidd Creek Mine clearly warrant further investigation. Explor Resources Inc. is currently conducting an exploration and drill program on the Kidd Township property. Results are pending.

The newly acquired claim is approximately 1 km to the Northwest of the Glencore Kidd Creek Mine Site. Clearly, the newly acquired claim appears to be on the same Syn-volcanic Collapsed Structure as the Glencore Kidd Creek Mine and the Glencore Chance Deposit. The Glencore Kidd Creek Mine located to the South-east of the newly acquired property has produced 152,600,000 tonnes of Base Metal Ore (Cu-Zn-Pb-Ag) since it began production in 1966.

This acquisition is being made in support of Explor’s belief in the “Cluster Effect of VMS (Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide) Deposits”. Well known examples of the cluster effect of VMS Deposits are the Bathurst Mining Camp where 47 deposits have been found to date, including the Brunswick No.12 and the Brunswick No.6 Mines where more than 130,000,000 tonnes of Base Metal Ore has been produced to date; and the Noranda Mining Camp where 18 deposits have been found to date, with 68,100,000 tons of Base Metal Production from the Horne Mine and Quemont Deposits alone. The presence of Mafic and Felsic rocks on the Kidd Township Properties with anomalous zinc and copper supports the opinion that additional VMS Deposits exist in the immediate vicinity of the Glencore Kidd Creek Mine.

  • Funded by the tobacco lobby but rather the U.K.’s Department of Health, also noted that around half of the general public falsely assumed vaporizers and e-cigarettes were as unhealthy as a pack of Lucky’s
  • No evidence vaporizers lead to smoking. In fact, the report suggested e-cigarettes as a useful tool to help people quit smoking

The pack-a-day smoker can save around $1,200 per year by vaping.

 

The CDC and various health organizations don’t want to endorse smoking or nicotine consumption in any form, so it’s understandable that they’ve emphasized first and foremost that e-cigarettes are bad for people.

According to a new study published by Public Health England on Wednesday, however, vaping is actually 95% less harmful than their smouldering counterpart.

The study, which was not funded by the tobacco lobby but rather the U.K.’s Department of Health, also noted that around half of the general public falsely assumed vaporizers and e-cigarettes were as unhealthy as a pack of Lucky’s, and that there’s no evidence vaporizers lead to smoking. In fact, the report suggested e-cigarettes as a useful tool to help people quit smoking.

What the report doesn’t mention is that jumping on the e-cig train could save considerable money compared to traditional smoking. According to NerdWallet, disposable e-cigarettes will mug you an average of $1,387 per year if you’re a pack-a-day smoker—considerably less than the $2,569 equivalent yearly cost of the real thing. While it’s still enough to make a dent in your budget, the savings could be critical for many, since tobacco use is higher among among people at a lower socioeconomic status.

If you really want to get that cost down, you can sacrifice some convenience and buy a reusable vape with liquid refills, getting the cost down to about $500 to $600 per year—an average savings of over $2,000. Well, it could save you that, plus a couple decades on your life.

Of course, smokers would save the most–and enjoy the best health and longest lives–by kicking the habit in all forms.

KWG Proposes Partnership With Webequie & Marten Falls $KWG.ca

  • Discussed with the Chiefs of the Webequie and Marten Falls First Nations an outline of principal terms for the possible creation of an equal partnership through which to undertake the development and exploitation of mineral deposits in the Ring of Fire

TORONTO, ONTARIO–(June 2, 2016) – In meetings this week KWG Resources Inc. (CSE:KWG)(FRANKFURT:KW6) (“KWG”) has discussed with the Chiefs of the Webequie and Marten Falls First Nations an outline of principal terms for the possible creation of an equal partnership through which to undertake the development and exploitation of mineral deposits in the Ring of Fire.

“A little more than a year ago now, we welcomed the Webequie and Marten Falls First Nations joining forces to act together in concluding a ‘Negotiation Protocol Respecting Early Exploration in the Ring of Fire,'” said KWG President Frank Smeenk. “The railroad feasibility study that China Railway FSDI proposes to undertake for us is based on the railroad being part of the large-volume underground chromite mining operations being envisaged to supply a gas reduction processing facility where the chromite would be upgraded to ferrochrome. Those mining and transportation capital assets will be largely located within the traditional territories of Webequie and Marten Falls.

“As we seek offtake terms for this potential new ferrochrome supply, it is crucial that such terms include a floor price which insures these large-volume operations, once begun, can continue without interruption for the many decades possible. To guarantee this we have proposed to transfer our mining claims into a limited partnership provided that Webequie and Marten Falls make an investment into the limited partnership equal to KWG’s. We have offered to provide them with a non-recourse loan of $40 million to facilitate this.

“The shares of the General Partner managing the limited partnership would be equally held by KWG as to half, and Webequie and Marten Falls jointly, as to the other half. Both shareholders would appoint an equal number of Directors but the Chairman of the Board would be a KWG nominee.”

Webequie Chief Cornelius Wabasse and Bruce Achneepineskum, Chief Marten Falls FN, have undertaken to study the proposal with their respective councils. The parties have also agreed to discuss at a later date the opportunities for equity participation in KWG subsidiary Muketi Metallurgical LP, which is prosecuting two chromite-refining patent applications in Canada, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Kazakhstan, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey, and USA.

About KWG:

KWG has a 30% interest in the Big Daddy chromite deposit and the right to earn 80% of the Black Horse chromite where resources are being defined. KWG also owns 100% of CCC which has staked claims and conducted a surveying and soil testing program, originally for the engineering and construction of a railroad to the Ring of Fire from Aroland, Ontario. KWG subsequently acquired intellectual property interests, including a method for the direct reduction of chromite to metalized iron and chrome using natural gas. The Company is prosecuting patent applications for both the direct reduction method and for a method of producing high purity chromium metal by continuous smelting.
