Iconic Minerals has three highly prospective Lithium exploration
properties located in Nevada, the Bonnie Claire Sarcobatus Valley
Lithium property, the Smith Valley Creek Property, and the Third Nevada
Lithium Property.
Bonnie Claire Property
Property Overview
11.8 Billion pounds of lithium carbonate equivalent (28.5 Million tonnes of LCE) Inferred Resource (43-101).
Potential to be the largest lithium resource globally (based on size)
Bonnie Claire is a 100% owned lithium brine property comprising of
23,100 acres of contiguous placer claims, currently in control of 28.75
square miles (75 km2) located in Nye County, Nevada.
Property area is contained within a valley that is 60kms from the
only producing lithium mine in North America (Albermarle Silver Peak
Mine).
Over +20 miles (+30 km) long and 12 miles (20 km) wide into which streams from an +800 mi2 (2,070 km2) drainage basin empty.
Sampling of salt flats within the basin, have found lithium values in salt samples yielding up to 340 ppm.
Current claim block covers the gravity low and associated mud flats
that could be used for evaporation ponds if significant lithium brines
are discovered in drilling.

Nevada is a Geopolitically Stable Jurisdiction
Gold Projects
The company’s Gold exploration portfolio includes the Hercules
property in the Como mining district, 17 kms from the famous Comstock
Lode mine, the New Pass property in the New Pass mining district, and
the Squaw Creek property located in the northern area of the Carlin
Trend.
Situated within and on the margins of the Como mining district, located in Lyon County, Nevada.
Como district was worked as early as the late 1850s, before the
famous Comstock Lode deposit was discovered about 10 miles (16 km.) to
the north by prospectors following float upstream from placer gold
deposits at Dayton.
By the early 1860’s the Como district was abandoned due to the rich
lodes having been discovered at Virginia City (Russell, 1981).
In the late 1880’s the Hercules Mining Company explored the occurred
with the excavation of another 1,500 feet (450 m) of underground
workings.
Gold and silver property which, is comprised of 107 unpatented lode mining claims (2,231 acres).
The property is located in eastern Churchill County, Nevada; in the
New Pass Mining District, 27 miles west of Austin, Nevada and 105 miles
east of Reno.
Iconic Minerals has a controlling interest in the property, in a
joint venture with White Knight Gold U.S. Inc., (now U.S. Gold), with
Iconic earning a 50% interest.
Property is located 42 miles due north
of Battle Mountain, Nevada and lies between the Midas and Ivanhoe mining
districts on the northern portion of the Carlin Trend, six miles north
of the Dee Mine in the Lower Plate Bootstrap Window.
Iconic’s Research and Development partner
St-Georges’ metallurgists report that they
have successfully improved the concentration of lithium in the
Sediments, originally reported in December using mechanical separation
and selective leaching of other elements within the Sediments.
The additional tests St-Georges completed
in Stage 2, through selective leaching methods, have improved the
elimination of barren material from 55% to 85%-88%, while retaining 100%
of the lithium.
Upon completion approximately 12% to 15%
of the original material remains for further processing and
purification. This process may significantly reduce the cost of
production.
Lithium also leachable by water

Three trends shaping programmatic advertising in 2019
Programmatic customisation is now common practice, allowing teams to
improve performance and provide greater relevancy with personalised
messaging. Vast amounts of data also mean that advertising creative can
dynamically change to be all the more relevant to users, with ads
adapting to factors like location, device, weather, time, and
demographics.
One of the main benefits of the technology behind this is that it
generates a lot of quick feedback, which allows marketers to optimise
creative in real time, and to change what’s in front of consumers’ eyes
at a rapid rate.
Case studies have illustrated the effectiveness of personalisation in
programmatic campaigns. Mindshare Indonesia, for example, developed an always-on retargeting campaign
using dynamic creative optimisation technology for AirAsia, which
allowed its programmatic team to dynamically serve thousands of ad
versions based on the last destination travellers searched for on its
website. Mindshare created over 5,500 ad versions in three months,
saving an estimated 276 days of production time, and generating a higher
ROI for the airline.
Programmatic TV
Within the industry, there appears to be a growing desire for a
solution to bridge the gap between television advertising and online
advertising.
Consequently, with traditional TV advertising slowing in pace, and
programmatic TV advertising buying increasing, TV ads could increasingly
be purchased programmatically. Indeed, PWC predicts that programmatic TV will represent approximately one third of global TV ad revenue by 2021.
There are certainly challenges that come along with programmatic TV.
First, there is the need for greater diversity in terms of the inventory
available. Second, there are concerns around transparency and brand
safety, although this issue is continually improving.
On the other hand, there are big benefits to programmatic TV, the
main one being new format types on connected TVs, such as unskippable
15- and 30-second video ads (which can be both immersive and engaging).
Connected TV ad campaigns also allow for precision targeting based on
more accurate consumer data.
For automotive brand Volvo, a programmatic TV campaign generated
significant sales lift. It involved delivering interactive video ads
through Roku boxes and Samsung TVs, which were personalised by location
(and local deal information).
The campaign
produced nearly 526,000 unique engagements across approximately 95,000
homes. Impressively, the exposed group saw a 35% sales lift compared
with the control group.
In-housing
In-housing is not a new practice, but it is one that’s certainly
growing in popularity. In 2019, brand owners have an increased desire to
own and operate their own data, largely motivated by the opportunity to
gain more value from advertising spend (by utilising resources more
effectively).
In Econsultancy’s survey, 22% of respondents reported using a ‘mixed’
programmatic trading model, with 29% running with solely in-house
operations. Forty-three percent reported still running entirely with an
agency.
As well as value from ad spend, another reason companies are
transferring in-house is to do with transparency and brand safety.
Negotiating and buying all digital media in-house allows for greater
control and visibility over where advertising is placed.
That being said, in-housing also come with its own challenges.
Finding the right talent is undoubtedly one of the biggest, as the role
of a programmatic trader not only requires in-depth knowledge of
multiple platforms and the optimisation strategies available, but also a
deep understanding of client and consumer needs.
In this case, experts advise not to blindly jump onto the trend for
in-housing, but to first ensure that they realise both the work
involved, and the skillset required in order to effectively overtake
agency involvement.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 18, 2019 / GGX Gold Corp. (TSX-V: GGX), (OTCQB: GGXXF), (FRA: 3SR2) (the “Company” or “GGX“)
is pleased to announce it has received tellurium analytical results for
select drill core samples from the Fall 2018 diamond drill program at
the Gold Drop Property, located in southern British Columbia. The Fall
2018 drill program was conducted at the C.O.D. Vein, located in the Gold
Drop Southwest Zone. The tellurium results are re-analyses of drill
core samples from drill holes COD18-67 and COD18-70 which initially
exceeded the upper 500 grams per tonne (g/t) analytical limit for
tellurium. The re-analyses confirm high-grade tellurium for these drill
holes, being associated with high-grade gold and silver (gold and silver
results reported in News Releases of January 11 and 18, 2019):
The
2018 Fall diamond drill program tested the COD vein. The program
followed up on results from previous 2018 diamond drilling at the
southern extension of the COD vein. The highlights of the 2018 Fall
drill program are drill hole COD18-67 which intersected 129.1 g/t gold
and 1,154 g/t silver over 7.28 meters core length and drill hole
COD18-70 which intersected 107.5 g/t gold and 880 g/t silver over 6.90
meters core length (News Releases of January 11and 18, 2019). Both holes
were drilled slightly northeast from the same site (COD18-67 at a
50-degree dip and COD-18-70 at a 54-degree dip) to intersect the
northwest trending COD Vein at a shallower angle, the objective to test
the continuity of the quartz veining and mineralization.
Fourteen
drill core samples from the high-grade gold and silver intersections of
drill holes COD18-67 and COD18-70 returned greater than the upper
analytical limit of 500 g/t for tellurium during initial analysis (four
acid ICP-MS analysis by ALS Canada Ltd. in North Vancouver). As a
result, the tellurium weighted average grades for these intersections
could not be determined from initial analyses. ALS Canada Ltd. recently
re-analyzed these 14 samples for tellurium by four acid ICP-AES. These
new analytical results confirm high grade tellurium within the
high-grade gold and silver intersections. For drill hole COD18-67, the
near-surface interval of 23.19-30.47m (7.28 meters core length) graded
823.4 g/t tellurium. For drill hole COD18-70, the near-surface interval
of 22.57-29.47m (6.90 meters core length) graded 640.5 g/t Tellurium.

to recently, the sole use of tellurium has been alloying of other
metals to increase the machinability of copper or to decrease the
corrosive action of sulfuric acid on lead.
The most significant
modern use of tellurium is the Cadmium-telluride (Cd-Te) photovoltaic
solar cells. These solar cells are the forefront of solar power. One
gigawatt (GW) of Cd-Te, at current efficiencies, would require
approximately 93 metric tons of tellurium. These cells have the smallest
carbon footprint and the shortest energy payback time of all solar
cells. The efficiency of technology is constantly improving and the
Cd-Te now takes up 5.1% of worldwide PV production.

In
the C.O.D vein system the tellurium occurs as a soft silver-grey
telluride mineral. The telluride mineral is a Silver-Tellurium-Gold
alloy speculated to be sylvanite. Whenever this mineral is observed in
the drill core the interval has elevated silver, gold and tellurium
values.
