Datametrex AI Limited (DM:TSXV) (D4G:FSE) (DTMXF: OTC ) an AI and Machine learning company was well positioned with deep roots in South Korea to make the ultimate pivot to Covid-19 test kit distribution. When the Canadian Government came calling for assistance in importing and distributing COVID-19 test kits, Datametrex stepped up to the task thanks to its security clearances already in place in both countries.
Since then, the company has signed multiple multi-million dollar Covid-19 test kit supply agreements with mining companies, a $20M CAD agreement with the television and film industry and various educational institutions. This is in addition to lucrative AI contracts with various levels of government and enterprise level customers such as LOTTE Group, the fifth-largest conglomerate in Korea with annual revenues of approximately $60B USD.
As a result, Datametrex has had its’ best year ever in the first 3 quarters of 2020 as follows:
Record revenue of $7.6 million for the nine-month 2020 period compared to $2.6 in 2019
Record revenue of $4.9 million was generated in Q3

SPONSOR: Harborside is a California-focused, vertically integrated, fully licensed cannabis company with its business consisting of three primary segments, Retail Dispensaries, Cultivation and Processing and Wholesale Sales (including branded product sales). Harborside operates the only drive through dispensary in California
Purchasers of Marijuana Pay About 10 Percent in State Taxes on Retail Buys
The sale of cannabis in California went legal in 2016, and retailers were able to open their doors two years later. Along with the legal retail sale of cannabis came two new taxes — a cultivation tax on all harvests and an excise tax on the purchase of weed and products made with it; the usual sales taxes, both state and local, also applied. They add up, and in the third quarter of 2020, California’s total cannabis tax revenue was $306.7 million. Of that amount, the state gained sales and excise tax on $11 million worth of retail cannabis sold in cities in Santa Barbara County.
For $30 worth of cannabis flower, or buds, the taxes can raise the consumer’s payment to $41.77, the state Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) calculated. That includes a 15 percent excise tax and the state’s 8.5 percent sales tax. The CDTFA also added a 10 percent cannabis business tax, which is charged by most California jurisdictions, although Santa Barbara County’s cities’ rate is 5-6 percent. The cultivation tax is paid by weight when the farmer sells to a distributor.
The breakdown of the $306 million in taxes are excise tax of $159.8 million, cultivation tax of $41 million, and sales tax of $105.9 million. For the previous year’s July to September, the cannabis taxes to the state were $170.8 million.
The previous quarter, or April through June, generated $260 million for the state, and the first quarter of January to March generated close to $206 million. Santa Barbara County’s retail cannabis sales saw a similar move upward from the first to second quarter, the Tax and Fee Administration reported. January to March sales were $9 million, and April to May sales were $16.7 million. Many speculate the increase is due to the shutdown.
Santa Barbara County has yet to permit any retail cannabis stores and is in the process of determining where eight will go in the county’s unincorporated areas. If the $11 million in sales would have occurred in county areas, the income would have been about $441,000 with the county’s 4 percent retail cannabis tax, said Jeff Frapwell of the County Executive Office.
Correction: Santa Barbara County plans eight retail cannabis stores, not six; and this story has been updated to reflect local business tax amounts.

1.078 gpt AuEq over 345.0 Meters Within 921.0 Meters of 0.821 gpt AuEq (Hole GS-20-83) at the Goldstorm Zone, Treaty Creek, Located in B.C.’s Golden Triangle
Cardston, Alberta–(Newsfile Corp. – December 16, 2020) – American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSXV: AMK) (“the Corporation”) is pleased to present results for the fifth set of diamond drill holes for the Goldstorm Zone at their flagship property, Treaty Creek. The project is located in the heart of the Golden Triangle of northwestern British Columbia and is on-trend from Seabridge’s KSM Project located five kilometers southwest of the Goldstorm Zone. Results from 12 diamond drill holes have recently been received from MSA Labs with final results from another 11 diamond drill holes pending. All drill holes have successfully intersected the Goldstorm System, expanding and defining the mineralization along the northeast and southeast axes, as well as to depth. The Goldstorm System 300 Horizon has now been traced for 1100 meters along the northeast axis and, as well, the CS-600 and DS-5 zones have been expanded to the northeast and to depth. All 39 drill holes completed at Goldstorm during the 2020 program have encountered significant precious metal mineralization. The 2020 Treaty Creek Diamond Drill Program was completed last week, and field personnel have winterized the camp. The track-components of two track-mounted diamond drills remain on site ready for start-up of the 2021 exploration season.
Tudor Gold’s Vice President of Project Development, Ken Konkin, P.Geo., states: “We are very pleased with the results obtained from all 39 drill holes completed this year to-date and we anticipate the release of the final 11 holes of the year within a few weeks. This brings the total to 50 drill holes that were completed this year at the Goldstorm Zone. These latest holes continued to expand the limits of the mineralized targets along the northeastern and the southeastern axes, and to depth. For a fifth consecutive press release, we have surpassed our best result from last years’ drill hole program (0.697 AuEq over 1081.5 meters in hole GS-19-47) with drill holes GS-20-83 and GS-20-94 as described in the headline. The final 11 drill holes represent over 9600 meters of drilling and we expect that MSA Labs will complete the analysis of these final samples as soon as possible.”
Treaty Creek Highlights include:
Twelve drill holes presented in this press release total 11,551.1 meters.
The best results were from GS-20-94, a near-surface 354.0 meter intercept (36.0-390 m) averaging 1.215 gpt AuEq and GS-20-82 with a 351m intercept (113.0-464.0 m) averaging 1.051 gpt AuEq. Both holes are located on Section 111+00 NE.
Equally impressive was drill hole GS-20-83 that also had a near-surface intercept over a similar 345.0 meters (73.5-418.5 m) that averaged 1.078 gpt AuEq on Section 112+50 NE.
More Core Drilling did an excellent job completing 50 HQ/NQ2 diamond drill holes totaling 43,972 meters at Goldstorm and 1,636 meters at the Perfect Storm Target with three drill holes.
The following three tables below provide the complete list of composited drill hole results as well as the drill hole data including hole location, elevation, depth, dip and azimuth.

*lost drill hole in mineralization
All assay values are uncut, and intervals reflect drilled intercept lengths.
HQ and NQ2 diameter core samples were sawn in half and typically sampled at standard 1.5m intervals.
The following metal prices were used to calculate the Au Eq metal content: Gold $1322/oz, Ag: $15.91/oz, Cu: $2.86/lb. Calculations used the formula Au Eq g/t = (Au g/t) + (Ag g/t x 0.012) + (Cu% x 1.4835). All metals are reported in USD and calculations do not consider metal recoveries. True widths have not been determined as the mineralized body remains open in all directions. Further drilling is required to determine the mineralized body orientation and true widths.

Attached are Sections 108+00 NE, 110+00 NE, 111+00 NE, 112+50 NE, 114+00 NE and 115+50 NE showing holes traces with histogram plots for gold and copper results and a Plan Map showing the drill hole and section locations.
Walter Storm, President and CEO, stated: “We are very pleased to announce the safe successful completion of our 2020 diamond drill hole program. We completed over four times the amount of drilling from the previous year’s program, greatly advancing Tudor’s flagship Treaty Creek Property. We completed almost 44,000 meters of drilling at the Goldstorm System and over 1,600 meters of drilling at the Perfect Storm target. Once we receive the final results from the last eleven drill holes, we will then pass the data to our resource engineers and geoscientists for an initial resource estimate. Continued drilling is required for 2021 to locate the limits or edges of the mineralized system. Due to the size and robust nature of the mineralization, the Goldstorm System remains open on all fronts and to depth. We are proud of what we have achieved in these last two years of exploration and in-particular, the great effort to withstand the harsh winter elements during November and December at Treaty Creek to bring the 2020 drill campaign to a safe close. Our commitment is to continue to advance the project as quickly as possible. We have left the track-drill carriage components for two track-mounted drill rigs on-site so our team can get an early start to the 2021 drill season. We look forward to receiving the final results of the eleven drill holes from MSA Labs within a couple of weeks to complete the 2020 exploration season on schedule.”
Tudor Gold Corp and our associated service companies have taken extreme measures to maintain the highest professional standards while working within COVID-19 health and safety protocols.
Darren Blaney, CEO of American Creek, commented: “We are extremely impressed with the drill program our JV partner Tudor Gold has completed this year and with the significant potential deposit that it has revealed. The Goldstorm zone already appears to be world-scale in size and yet is still open from the northeast to the southeast and remarkably, also at depth. The Magnetotelluric survey done in 2016, which shows potential continuation of gold mineralization well beyond the extent of this year’s drilling of Goldstorm, has proven to be very accurate. That same survey data also shows tremendous potential at the Perfect Storm zone which, due to permitting restraints, was only able to have the outer halo drill tested this year, and yet the drilling still encountered gold mineralization.
“Recognition must be given to both Tudor Gold and More Core for initiating the drill program in early May and carrying through to December. This is no small feat in the Golden Triangle region. While bad weather and Covid-19 limited many projects within the area this season, Tudor and More Core delivered an incredible 45 km of drilling with every hole encountering significant gold mineralization.
“We look forward to the remaining holes, the metallurgical work, and ultimately the maiden resource calculation of the Goldstorm on Treaty Creek sometime in the new year.”
QA/QC
Drill core samples were prepared at MSA Labs’ Preparation Laboratory in Terrace, BC and assayed at MSA Labs’ Geochemical Laboratory in Langley, BC. Analytical accuracy and precision are monitored by the submission of blanks, certified standards and duplicate samples inserted at regular intervals into the sample stream by Tudor Gold personnel. MSA Laboratories quality system complies with the requirements for the Company. International Standards ISO 17025 and ISO 9001. MSA Labs is independent of the company.

Announced the release of Nexalogy SMART – Social Media Automated Reporting Technology
As previously announced, Nexalogy’s SMART is an advanced proprietary AI technology
SMART minimizes human involvement in data analysis and reporting.
It significantly decreases the time required for integration and interpretation of large data sets and report production
Now fully available
Toronto, Ontario–(December 16, 2020) – Datametrex AI Limited (TSXV: DM) (FSE: D4G) (OTC Pink: DTMXF) (the “Company” or “Datametrex”) is pleased to announce the release of Nexalogy SMART – Social Media Automated Reporting Technology.
As previously announced, Nexalogy’s SMART is an advanced proprietary AI technology. SMART minimizes human involvement in data analysis and reporting. It significantly decreases the time required for integration and interpretation of large data sets and report production. It is now fully available.
SMART takes NexaIntelligence to the next level with AI-powered automated reporting technology. It quickly generates reports with all of NexaIntelligence’s visualizations, augmenting the reporting capacity of analysts. Human resources are a scarce commodity. SMART integrates larger sets of data into smaller, more manageable reports, thus significantly reducing the number of resource hours required to identify insights.
Our AI pre-reads text, selects verbatims, and summarizes themes quickly, reliably, and with precision. The AI technology creates powerful reports based on our algorithms and automatically selects the most important original posts to include, in minutes rather than hours. Analysts can specify filters on the data to get automatic reports on subsets of the data focusing on specific times, entities, social media users, or topics. This means social media trends can be understood faster and with less difficulty, keeping companies ahead of the curve.
SMART’s scheduling functionality allows companies to structure reporting to match regular schedules as needed or in response to triggering events in the data itself. AI-written reports are emailed to analysts inconvenient and easy to read file formats, such as MSWORD or PDF. Raw JSON outputs from Nexalogy’s API are also available for use in white labelled products.
AI reporting on social media and other forms of unstructured text is increasingly important and relevant in the information landscape. The need for strategic reporting of data from these platforms in both the public and private sectors is growing at a rapid pace. The ability to analyze and monetize social media discussions, as well as unstructured text from owned sources, are key strengths of SMART. Breaking through information bottlenecks and resource limitations, SMART can take big data discovery and exploration to a new level of actionable insights.
“Our AI helps you unlock the power of discovery, converting unknown unknowns into known knowns, activating the hidden potential currently lost in big data.

The pandemic has created a new consumer expectation for virtual services
Tech company Binovi gives optometry patients a new alternative
With Binovi Connect, the company has created a seamless network for vision care professionals to work together
With 2020 becoming the year of the homebody, we’ve all had to drastically reduce our trips out of the house. While it’s been hard on everyone, we can consider ourselves lucky that there were already numerous resources to ease the transition into sheltering in place.
It’s no secret that companies bridging the distance between services like food delivery apps, and 24-hour product distribution have been the trend for a while now. Still, with communities shutting down, many newer services crossed the line from following the trend into being embedded into daily life.
While things like Zoom conferences and virtual personal training have been an infrequent occurrence pre-pandemic, consumers have realized that they’re now mainstream and accepted options to save time and social distance.
Office groups are even doing video-streamed murder mystery parties in place of their traditional in-person Christmas gatherings. It’s a new language of behaviour that we’re becoming fluent in as we continue to adapt to how COVID has changed our lives.
Even as restrictions lift and the curve eventually flattens, it’s hard to see a future without these new tools at consumers’ disposal. For instance, who would want to go back to sitting in a crowded waiting room, when you could simply have an online conference with your doctor? This Binovi Platform allows users to browse from a list of Binovi Providers, schedule appointments, conduct screening, and more.
It’s a shift that has already changed the healthcare industry. Specialist professionals can now maximize their patient schedule and keep appointments as socially distanced as possible. While it’s a handy change of pace, there has already been an opportunity to create a more accessible network to maximize efficiency and accuracy for both doctors and patients.
“Once a training regimen is established, along with a schedule for check-ins and evaluations, users can conduct their own training sessions.”
— Adam Cegielski, CEO, Binovi Technologies Corp.
Binovi offers the patient management resource that medical professionals have been waiting for
With one in four people worldwide living with issues related to vision that go beyond visual acuity, it’s time to address this gap and come up with an effective and efficient way for specialists to meet with patients during the pandemic and beyond.
Enter Binovi Technologies (TSXV: VISN | OTCQB: BNVIF), a best-in-class neuro-visual performance platform designed to test, analyze, track, and report on individual cognitive performance.
Established to enhance how optometrists work with their patients and bring treatment into the 21st century, Binovi is supported by recognized optometry leaders worldwide.
This connection to vision therapists, occupational therapists, and physical therapists has led the company towards innovative testing methods that patients can do remotely. While in the presence of a professional, patients produce quantifiable data that Binovi can analyze, consult with other professionals about, and recommend the next steps for treatment.
Binovi’s experience with facilitating a channel between professionals and patients has led to the company’s latest telehealth innovation, Binovi Connect, which is a web-based video conferencing solution that connects consumers to vision care professionals focused on concussions, reading skills, and athletic enhancement.
The new application not only gives a straightforward service to both parties, but it provides a network for professionals to consult and collaborate with each other about specific patient treatments. It’s a streamlining of service that gives clarity and peace of mind to anyone who has felt like they might not have grasped everything their doctor has just said.
Patients can easily choose from specialists who best meet their needs, establish a routine with their selected one, and monitor in real-time the results they’ve made. On the other side of things, doctors can see notes from other professionals and collaborate on multiple fronts to create multi-tiered treatment tactics for shared patients.
It’s a program that has countless applications in the healthcare world, but for the moment, Binovi is remaining focused on vision-based therapy. With 800 clinics across the globe already using Binovi’s systems, their market share of the $74 billion a year Visioncare industry will only grow.
To do that, the company emphasizes the program’s ease of use and a clear value proposition. Binovi Connect is incredibly user-friendly, and patients are given everything they need to create progress.
“Once a training regimen is established, along with a schedule for check-ins and evaluations, users can conduct their own training sessions,” says Cegielski.
“This is happening while still under the watchful eye of their healthcare professionals who can monitor the results with session data stored in the cloud.”
Since the launch of this platform, the 800 organizations have created nearly 31,000 users, together completing more than 400,000 active sessions centered around the Binovi Library list of activities.
Niche treatments for niche ailments
When it comes to niche treatments, Binovi offers patients the materials they need as recommended by each doctor for treatment. This could be equipment for equilibrium building exercises or the means to conduct a supervised vision test.
Binovi Coach encourages and empowers patients to confidently complete their prescribed home therapy with clarity and guidance.
The insights from these sessional treatments are then boosted by the program’s AI. Cloud-based session data is effectively merged with data from the clinicians’ past findings, then offered to each patient’s current therapist. This allows each session to produce real-time suggestions, and present immediate resources to each therapist.
It’s a groundbreaking new approach to treatment, that has produced startling results for patients suffering from concussions, binocular vision dysfunction, amblyopia, and countless other afflictions. With Binovi, patients can actively improve dynamic visual acuity, visual reaction time, depth perception, and hand-eye/body-eye coordination.
The framework is already in place for patients to receive the specialized care they need regardless of geography or time zone. Now, it’s just a matter of time before consumer standards for virtual appointments and personal care reach a tipping point. Determining whether someone needs vision therapy, or could benefit from vision training, can start early.
When that happens, Binovi is ready to serve.
So, what’s next for the platform?
Migrating offline sessions to Binovi Connect
Inclusion of a broader class of providers
Support for more languages
Release of SDK for integration with other platforms
Anonymized data access for research
Expecting to launch a Beta version of the app by fiscal Q1 2021
“We are excited to continue to build out a robust telehealth platform as we continue our mission to be the leader in neuro-vision performance technology space.”
Why should investors take note of Binovi?
Binovi’s future innovation opportunities are largely driven by identifying high-value client needs and evaluating each unique opportunity to develop new products and services in the areas of neurotechnology and vision training to support unlocking human performance.
The company’s future innovation pipeline looks like this:
Expanding its capabilities within the education sector
Partnering with elite athletes, professional sports as well as esports teams
Standardizing data collection in the field to create optimized training regimens based on unique profiles, peer groups and custom goals
Working with military and law enforcement
Treating the aging population and improving performance for those affected by the impact of brain-related diseases or natural aging
Binovi’s innovation milestones from first acquiring Wayne Engineering in 2015 and its educational IP to commercializing its Binovi Connect Platform.
Additionally, the acquisition and integration of the VIMA Rev Strobe Lenses under the Binovi umbrella has provided Binovi with an additional toolset to expand its offering. Developed by Nike’s former Global Director of Vision Science and his team of sport science experts, the VIMA Rev Strobe Lenses are an integrated strobe training system that stimulates neuro-cognition through vision training.
VIMA’s technology is being integrated into Binovi’s product platform, with several orders already fulfilled. Current VIMA Rev strobe users include the NHL’s Colorado Avalanche, the NBA’s Golden State Warriors, Chicago Bulls and the Milwaukee Bucks.
Binovi has had a tremendous year so far, and they’re not done yet.
