Gratomic is a leader in the mining and commercialization of graphite products
Gratomic aims to penetrate the tire market with GUET: Graphene Ultra Fuel Efficient Tires
The global tire market acknowledges that employing graphenes within tire treads, walls and the inner linings can make tires lighter, provide better grip and reduce rolling resistance to an extent that is not possible with existing tire compounds
Key to the ability for Gratomic to establish the first mass-market Mine to Graphene to Tire, is the production of large quantities of graphenes nano surface modified to enhance tire performance
Gratomic is developing and commercializing its Graphene Processing capacity in Wales through its partnership with Perpetuus carbon technologies.
Soft launching Gratomic Fuel Efficient Tire this summer.
Gratomic also prepared an additional 2 tonnes of Graphite concentrate for Wales for convert into high quality Graphenes targeted for the use and development of several high value Graphene applications.

Zen Graphene Solutions (ZEN:TSXV) has discovered the largest and very rare ultra high-purity graphite deposit in Northern Ontario. The company is now determined to illustrate the commercial viability of the Deposit, which sounds like every company until you consider what has taken place in just the past 60 days:
1. ZEN was awarded a $1,000,000 grant for Graphene-Infused Concrete Applications research. Yep, graphene & concrete. Who would have figured? Well, ZEN did as research with two different Universities indicates the combination has the potential to increase the strength of concrete by 40% … which would save developers an incredible amount of money. ZEN thinks they may be ready to deliver product into Ontario by 2020…. and so does the Grantor who didn’t want their name disclosed!
2. ZEN signed an agreement to
license a low cost, high-yield graphene production process. Now why
would it do something like that if ZEN didn’t think it would have a need
to … produce?
3. ZEN signed an MOU with
the University of Manchester on commercialization collaboration
opportunities. Again “commercialization”. Even more happened over the past 60 days … but we figure we’d save some great stuff for you to watch!

Drilling in the first 3 phases has hit a cluster of mineralized epithermal veins over an area from east to west of approximately 300m, and north to south 400m, and 300m depth.
3D IP geophysical survey will be completed over an 800 X 500 metre grid with thousands of data points
AAX will focus deeper to find the boiling zone of the system.
Kamloops, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – June 13, 2019) –
Advance Gold Corp. (TSXV: AAX) (“Advance Gold” or “the Company”) is
pleased to announce the remaining drilling results from its phase 3
drilling program and present a 3D model of the vein system at the 100%
owned Tabasquena project in Zacatecas, Mexico. Drilling in the first 3
phases has hit a cluster of mineralized epithermal veins over an area
from east to west of approximately 300 metres, and north to south 400
metres, and 300 metres of depth.
To date, the drilling has been
confined to the first few hundred metres of vertical depth in the veins
and has yet to be drilled into the boiling zone of the epithermal vein
system. To better target the next phase of drilling, a 3D model of the
mineralized vein hits with drilling was undertaken. Below are two
images, an image from the north looking south showing the shell of the
historical mining in the oxides, as well as the shafts and the area to
the west of it where drilling has been completed. The second is south
looking north, showing the veins hit in drilling as well as a model of
the vein from the mining in the oxides to the nearest vein hits.
Highlighted
in the 3D model are drill hole intersections of mineralized epithermal
vein hits as well as a shell of the network of underground workings in
the near surface oxide zone. Drilling to date in the 3 phases of
drilling has hit the vein system over a wide area.
An
important step in preparing for further drilling programs will be to
complete a 3D IP geophysical survey, enabling us to target veins from
surface to 600m. The survey will be completed over an 800 X 500 metre
grid with thousands of data points. This geophysical survey, along the
3D model of the mineralized vein hits from drilling, will give a clearer
picture to focus the next round of drilling.
Allan Barry
Laboucan, President and CEO of Advance Gold Corp. commented: “Of late,
things have been developing nicely on several fronts.”
“In Kenya,
we have a partnership with Acacia Mining, which has recently received a
takeover offer from Barrick. Exploration work to prepare for drilling
is underway on our joint venture ground. The Liranda Corridor, a key
structural zone, is part of 2 of our claims on either side of Acacia’s
100% owned ground and covers around â…” of the Liranda Corridor, with
Acacia owning the remaining â…“ of the corridor. We look forward to
additional developments from the exploration of the joint venture
ground, it is well located, has promising historical work done by Acacia
and is a good place to look for high-grade gold.”
“In Mexico, at
our Tabasquena project, we have completed 3 phases of drilling and have
hit a large cluster of mineralized epithermal veins, with the boiling
zone yet to be drilled. 3D modelling of the mineralized vein hits, gives
us a better picture of the size of the cluster. We also included a
shell of the historical mine workings in the near surface oxide zone.
The picture of the system is becoming clearer with the 3D model of the
veins hit so far. Now we need to focus deeper to find the boiling zone
of the system. To further assist us, we will do a 3D IP survey, which
will give us a good idea of anomalies in the 300-600 metre range. This
depth is crucial, as we are very close to Fresnillo, Mexico, where
Fresnillo PLC., has several mines and are partnered with MAG Silver on
building their new silver mine which is getting close to production. The
veins Fresnillo mines, and the new mine with MAG Silver are mostly
blind veins, and hit their boiling zones at the vertical depth we hope
to learn more about with the geophysics and our next drilling.”

Note:
All vein widths cut by drill holes are not true widths, they represent
the intersection of the incline hole with the dip of the vein. Advance
is in the process of estimating true widths for all the vein
intersections.
Drill core is logged and sampled in a secure core
storage facility located near the Tabasquena claims in Ojocaliente,
Mexico. Core samples from the program were cut in half, using a diamond
cutting saw, and were sent to Laboratorio Metalurgico Courtade S.A de
C.V. (Courtade) in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, for sample preparation and
fire assaying for gold and silver. Although Laboratorio Metalurgico
Courtade is not an accredited mineral analysis laboratory, they are a
well-respected mineral analysis laboratory with a long history of
working for major mining companies in Mexico, as well as a referee
laboratory for grade disputes between small scale local miners and the
toll mining companies they work with. All samples are analyzed for gold
and silver using standard fire assay-AA (atomic absorption) techniques.
The Company relies on Laboratorio Metalurgico Courtade for QA/QC
procedures and protocols for the assaying process.
Courtade is
specialized in mineral and metals analysis, was started in 1973, in San
Luis Potosi, Mexico. They have a quality control program, designed for
high precision in their assay results. They follow standard lab
procedures from the time they receive the sample from Advance’s
qualified person throughout the entire assaying process. Standards used
for the analysis of Au and Ag are from Peñoles Mining Company and are
used for every sample.
Dr. Julio Pinto Linares is the qualified
person for the Tabasquena project. Since June 2018 when drilling began
and throughout phase 3 he has been supervising drilling in the field for
drill holes one through ten. He examined and reviewed core boxes in the
field, supervised moving core boxes to the secure core storage facility
located near the Tabasqueña mine and was present during logging and
sampling of the core and kept control of all sample bags until delivered
to the Laboratorio Metalurgico Courtade. He checked and was present
during the QA/QC procedures and protocols during the preparation of the
samples.
Julio Pinto Linares is a QP, Doctor in Geological
Sciences with specialty in Economic Geology and Qualified Professional
No. 01365 by MMSA., for Advance Gold and is the qualified person as
defined by National Instrument 43-101 responsible for the accuracy of
technical information contained in this news release.

Milken-Backed Immortals Makes Esports’ First $100 Million Deal
They acquired Infinite Esports from Texas Rangers co-owners
The resulting company becomes competitor in four major esports
Immortals Gaming Club, an esports business backed by Meg Whitman and
the family of Michael Milken among others, acquired Infinite Esports
from two of the owners of the Texas Rangers baseball team, marking what
the buyers said is the industry’s first $100 million deal.
The transaction merges Los Angeles-based Immortals, best known for
its Valiant team in the Overwatch League, with the parent of OpTic
Gaming, one of the more prominent teams in the League of Legends
Championship Series. Its fans are known as the Greenwall.
“We expect there’s going to be general consolidation in the
industry,†Immortals Chief Executive Officer Ari Segal said an
interview. “This is the first wave of that.â€
Milken-Backed Immortals CEO on Esports’ $100 Million Deal
Immortals Gaming Club CEO Ari Segal speaks to Bloomberg’s Chris Palmeri at E3 in Los Angeles.
(Source: Bloomberg)
The valuation includes the purchase price, debt and other
liabilities, including franchise fees still owed to the leagues. The
Immortals’ lineup of games will also include Call of Duty, which is
launching a new league, and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, meaning
the company now competes in four major esports.
Based on the equity consideration in the transaction, Infinite
stockholders collectively become the largest shareholder of Immortals
Gaming Club, according to a spokesman, with AEG continuing to hold the
biggest single stake. Neil Leibman and Ray Davis, co-owners of the Texas
Rangers, will become shareholders in Immortals as part of the deal.
Growing Business
Esports, where fans watch professional video-game players compete
online and in arenas, is among the fastest-growing businesses in
entertainment, attracting big money investors from the world of media
and sports. Last week, the owners of the Philadelphia 76ers and the New
Jersey Devils bought a majority stake in Clutch Gaming, a professional team owned by the Houston Rockets.
The deal marks a return to League of Legends competition for
Immortals, which was co-founded in 2015 by Noah Whinston, a college
dropout and esports enthusiast. Immortals operated a team, but failed to
get a franchise in the League of Legends Championship Series when
parent Riot Games offered them two years ago. They plan to sell the
Houston Outlaws franchise in the Overwatch League.
Immortals raised $30 million in a follow-on offering last month. The
overall business is now valued at $250 million, according to a person
familiar with the terms who wasn’t authorized to speak publicly.
