NEW YORK, May 17, 2016 – UNITED NATIONS — One of Wednesday, May 18th’s sessions of The 10th Annual World Summit on Innovation & Entrepreneurship (WSIE 2016) at the United Nations’ General Assembly hall in New York City will feature a discussion about “Innovating for Peace”.

The 20-minute unscripted Innovation for Peace conversation will take place on Wednesday at 12:35 PM EDT by U.S. Department of State Special Representative for Global Partnerships, Andrew O’Brien.

Andrew O’Brien
Special Representative for Global Partnerships
http://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/biog/209622.htm

Titled “Can We Innovate for Peace?” the discussion will center around the following theme:

Diplomacy is often thought of as a stodgy process – but like all else in this new hyper-connected world, diplomacy must aggressively embrace the innovative use of new technologies, ideas, sustainable designs, citizen-centric solutions and open innovations to enhance how policy leaders think, learn, work and partner to craft good policy outcomes – and avoid bad ones – like wars.

Open models for partnerships in this frenetically fast moving world will foster wider understanding and clearer perceptions of the other side’s interests, needs, fears and requirements — hence, better diplomatic outcomes.

WSIE 2016 is hosted in partnership with the UN Conference on Trade & Development, along with the support of the Secretary of State’s Office of Science & Technology at the Department of State.

In celebration of its 10th anniversary on May 18 – 19th, WSIE will feature panel discussions and presentations profiling the challenges and opportunities faced in seven topic areas by entrepreneurs and enterprises around the world:

The Deposit Payment shall be credited against the Cash Payments owing pursuant to the Option, and shall not be refundable by the Optionor in the event closing does not occur for whatever reason. The parties agree to work diligently and in good faith to negotiate the terms of a definitive agreement to reflect the transaction described herein (the “Definitive Agreement”), and will use their best efforts to execute the Definitive Agreement on or before May 31, 2016.

Rick Wilson, Chief Executive Officer of Nevada Energy Metals, commented: “We are excited about having a partner with which to advance our Clayton Valley property. This agreement is a first step in fulfilling our promise as an asset builder and project generator. The BFF-1 Project covers an area similar to the structural and geologic settings at Albemarle’s Silver Peak lithium-brine operation and lies only two hundred meters to the north west side of their property. We look forward to an exciting exploration program being carried out in the months ahead.”

About the Clayton Valley BFF-1 Project:

The Clayton Valley BFF-1 Project is an early-stage lithium brine prospect in Esmeralda County, Nevada. A total of 77 placer claims cover an area about 623 ha (1,540 acres) on the north-western side of the original Clayton Valley playa. The property position covers an inferred graben bounded by the Silver Peak Range front on the west and an outlier of Paleozoic rocks known as Goat Island on the east. The exploration concept is the graben is a sub-basin of the larger Clayton Valley basin and may represent a secondary trap for lithium brines within the greater system.

The Clayton Valley BFF-1 NI 43-101 Technical Report by Alan Morris, CPG, QP, states “The property has strong potential to host Lithium brine deposits in favorable geologic horizons within the basin fill. Another possible target is lithium enriched clay within the fill package and potentially in previous high stands of the playa.” (April, 2016)

Geologic and geophysical mapping conducted for geothermal exploration and documented by Hulen (2008) indicates previously unrecognized, deep graben lying between the Silver Peak range front and outcrops of Paleozoic rocks at Goat Island and Alcatraz Island. This area was their target zone for a deep circulating geothermal system they hoped to exploit for geothermal power. This graben is the main target for lithium brine as it may represent a separate sub-basin in Clayton Valley that holds brines not subject to pumping by production wells on the east side of the main valley. Exposed mineralization is confined to salt crust on the playa surface and other locations in the valley.

Western Geothermal Partners drilled a 120 meter (400 foot) geothermal gradient test well in 2006 on what is now the Clayton Valley BFF-1 project. Bottom hole temperature was 50?C (122?F) which showed moderate potential for geothermal power. Of significance, the well encountered a 25-foot-thick zone of volcanic ash reportedly similar to the Main Ash Aquifer in the Clayton Valley lithium operation. The presence of any felsic ash in this hole is significant in light of that it is the presumed source for at least some of the lithium in the brines (Price et al, 2000).

Explor Announces Kidd Township Property Diamond Drilling Program $EXS.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:01 AM on Tuesday, May 17th, 2016

Exs_logo

  • Announced the commencement of a Diamond Drilling Program on the Kidd Township Property
  • 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
  • Plans a geophysical program consisting of mag and max/min to better define the targets followed by a 3000 meter diamond drill program

ROUYN-NORANDA, QUEBEC–(May 17, 2016) – Explor Resources Inc. (“Explor” or “the Corporation”) (TSX VENTURE:EXS)(OTCQX:EXSFF)(FRANKFURT:E1H1)(BERLIN:E1H1) is pleased to announce the commencement of a Diamond Drilling Program on the Kidd Township Property. 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. Explor’s Kidd Township’s Group of Properties have a land position that cover an area of approximately 2,740.5 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. Explor plans a geophysical program consisting of mag and max/min to better define the targets followed by a 3000 meter diamond drill program.

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 southeast 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.

Some of the EM (Electromagnetic) targets occur along magnetic boundaries suggestive of Rhyolite/Basalt contacts. The Glencore Kidd Creek Mine located to the South-west of the property has produced 152,600,000 tonnes of Base Metal Ore (Cu-Zn-Pb-Ag) since it began production in 1966.

Explor believes 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.

Chris Dupont, P.Eng is the qualified person responsible for the information contained in this release.

  • Expansion and enhancement of YouTube channels with additional product reviews and locational content targeting specific markets. This initiative will feature Ms. Kim Owen, an international pageant model.

Management Commentary

Mr. Sean Dollinger, President and CEO of Namaste, comments: “Our integration of wholesale and e-commence operations will allow Namaste to reach a larger audience with our products and synergistically enhance the offerings of both divisions. This expansion also positions the Company to address the entity of the estimated US$2.0 billion vaporizer market, which is characterized by approximately 80% of sales being generated through physical retail locations. I firmly believe these strategic developments further advance our objective to become the leading integrated vaporizer and accessories company internationally.”

Corporate Security Appointment and Option Grant

Namaste announces the appointment of Mr. Darren Collins, Chief Financial Officer of Company, as Corporate Secretary. The Company has also granted 300,000 stock options to officers, directors, and consultants of the Company. The options will have an exercise price of $0.15 per share for a period of 5-years.

Durango Announces Update, Generates New Targets At Whitney Northwest $DGO.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 10:57 AM on Monday, May 16th, 2016

Logo

  • Announced an update on historic research on its 100%-owned Whitney Northwest claims near Timmins, Ontario
  • Research into historic drilling on the property has revealed that four of the reverse circulation holes drilled on the property for the purposes of till sampling were reported to intersect possible mafic metavolcanics at their termini
  • Marcy Kiesman, CEO of Durango, comments, “…research has indicated promising targets for gold mineralization at Durango’s Whitney NW project were also identified but never drilled….”

Vancouver, BC / May 16, 2016 – Durango Resources Inc. (TSX.V-DGO), (the “Company” or “Durango”) is pleased to announce an update on historic research on its 100%-owned Whitney Northwest claims near Timmins, Ontario. Based on this new research, Durango has outlined a series of new targets for its upcoming exploration program.

Research into historic drilling on the property has revealed that four of the reverse circulation holes drilled on the property for the purposes of till sampling were reported to intersect possible mafic metavolcanics at their termini (3). Metavolcanics are a known host to mineralization at both the Bell Creek Mine, located 3.5 kilometres to the southeast, and the Whitney property, located 6 kilometres to the southeast. These drill holes were targeting the till layer and only penetrated up to 1-2 metres into the underlying bedrock (3). Therefore, the true thickness of these metavolcanic units is yet unknown.

At the nearby Bell Creek Mine, gold mineralization occurs near or along mafic to ultramafic contact zones, and within the mafic volcanic sequence (1). Similarly, at the Whitney property, the Hallnor and Broulan Reef deposits straddle the unconformity between Timiskaming assemblage metasediments to the south, and Tisdale assemblage metavolcanics to the north. Gold mineralization at the Whitney property is associated with several styles of vein structures and as minute gold inclusions in sulphide minerals at or near the contact between the Timiskaming sediments and mafic to ultramafic volcanic rocks (2).

Furthermore, analysis of the historic till sampling results has shown that 10 out of the 34 holes drilled in the till sampling program returned gold values in till intervals directly overlying the bedrock, including the significant till sample which assayed 15.0 g/t Au over a 2.6 metre interval. (3)(4)

Marcy Kiesman, CEO of Durango, comments, “Durango continues to provide shareholders with opportunities for discovery. Research of past work identified the ground had been held and worked by Moneta Porcupine mines for several decades, and significant gold results in till were returned. Now, research has indicated promising targets for gold mineralization at Durango’s Whitney NW project were also identified but never drilled. It is a high priority for us to determine the true thickness of these potential metavolcanic intervals and to determine their viability as a host to mineralization.”

The western arm of the Black Rock Desert covers an area of about 2,000 square kilometers and contains 5 of the 30 currently listed Known Geothermal Resource Areas in Nevada. The property covers an area of playa underlain by a moderately deep basin interpreted from gravity and seismic surveys indicating a maximum thickness of valley-fill deposits of about 1,200 m/ 3,600 ft. A high salt content prevents any significant vegetation from growing on the playa surface. Locally, the basin is being fed in part by boiling springs and siliceous sinter containing strongly anomalous Lithium values (up to 3.5 ppm) that flank the property on the west side. (U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Open-File Report 81-918.) While these lithium values are well below those of producing lithium bines, they do represent a significant source of metal available for evaporative concentration within the playa basin.

The company plans to carry out an exploration program this summer to determine the potential for a lithium brine deposit. The exploration program will consist of shallow sampling followed by a high resolution geophysical program to define potential drill targets.

Nevada Energy Metals has acquired a 100% interest in the property, free of royalty payments, and has agreed to pay all location and recording costs in addition to granting a 200,000 share finders fee.
