Continuity of Nickel-Copper System Extended for 584 Meters on Julie Nickel Discovery on the Quebec North-Shore

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 12:54 PM on Tuesday, January 13th, 2015

  • New batch of results has extended the total strike of the Nickel-Copper occurrences on the Julie-Nickel Discovery to a length of 584 meters.
  • Best result from the portable drill samples yielded 1.17% Nickel at approximately 211 meters away from a previous discovery on the T1 Zone which yielded 1.71% Nickel over 8.49 meters

Baie-Comeau, Quebec / January 13, 2015 / St-Georges Platinum and Base Metals Ltd. (CSE: SX) (FSE: 85G1) (US OTC: SXOOF) is pleased to announced today that a new batch of results has extended the total strike of the Nickel-Copper occurrences on the Julie-Nickel Discovery to a length of 584 meters. The best result from the portable drill samples yielded 1.17% Nickel at approximately 211 meters away from a previous discovery on the T1 Zone which yielded 1.71% Nickel over 8.49 meters

Results Warrant Acceleration of Plans for Julie Nickel Discovery

“We are very encouraged by these new additional results coming out of the Julie-Nickel Project. The fact that these latest results were achieved over 200 metres away from a previous discovery makes us optimistic for the future of this early stage project. As such, we have accelerated our plan and expect to bring this discovery to drill ready stage before the summer of 2015.” Commented Frank Dumas, President & CEO of the Company.

“This acceleration is further supported by the expectation that nickel prices could move dramatically higher over the next two years as a cyclical recovery takes hold in the base metal sector, according to a recent report from Scotiabank” Dumas went on to say.

Joel Scodnick, P.Geo., Vice-President Exploration of St-Georges commented: “(…) no matter how you look at this mineralized corridor, there’s a 13km long magnetic anomaly that appears to be spatially associated with the Julie showing and all the other showings along strike of the Julie showing as mentioned in the press release. This structure is further evidence of a fairly extensive and pervasive plumbing system responsible for the concentrations of nickel discovered so far. Based on the surface work conducted and very shallow drilling using a man-held portable drill it is imperative at this point that St George’s establish a detailed grid in preparation for a diamond drilling campaign. If it can be established that the nickel sulphide enrichment is present at depth and along strike then a deposit of significance could be present, especially given the fact that the structure is so long and most like deep-rooted.”

Results Summary

T2 Zone

A surface mineralized zone of 52 meters by 18 meters referred to as “T2” has been identified. This zone is located 116 meters away from the initial discovery of “T1” on an East-North-East trend. It is categorized by a series of small gossans within a larger zone of mafic and ultramafic rocks at or near surface.

When added to the T1 Zone already identified (See Press Release, December 29, 2014) it covers a total of 238 meters of mineralisation and coincides with the ultramafic intrusive suite which hosts the new discovery which has been identified by geophysical data obtained by St-Georges in 2011 where a 13 kilometres magnetic conductor on a WSW to ENE trend was discovered.

The table below outline the results from a 2.88 meter channel sample taken in parallel with the mineralized body at surface:

From To Interval* Nickel Copper Cobalt
(Metres) (Metres) (Metres) (%) (%) (%)
T2 Channel 6 0 2.88 2.88 0.828 0.135 0.025

* Reported channel sample sections are not true widths. An apparent surface width of 8 meters can be calculated but at this time there is insufficient data with respect to the shape of the mineralization to calculate true orientations in space.

The starting point of the channel sample was located at N49? 57.517′ W69? 26.911′

Results from a man-held portable drill hole are also available. The hole was drilled vertically from surface to a shallow depth of 0.40 meters and was assayed as a whole. The drill hole was located at N49? 57.513′ W69? 26.911′.

T2 Channel 4 0 1.64 1.64 0.571 0.116 0.0148

This channel is located on the outskirt of the mineralized body and in parallel with it at N49? 57.518′ W69? 26.906.

From To Interval* Nickel Copper Cobalt
(Metres) (Metres) (Metres) (%) (%) (%)
T2 Channel 7 0 2.16 2.16 0.157 0.0351 <0.001

This channel sample is located outside of the mineralised body at N49?57.518′ W69? 26.905′

* Reported channel sample sections are not true widths. An apparent surface width of 8 meters can be calculated but at this time there is insufficient data with respect to the shape of the mineralization to calculate true orientations in space.

T3 ZONE

The T3 exploration target zone is a surface mineralized zone measuring 58 meters by 8 meters located 159 meters to the South-East of the eastern limits of the T2 Zone. This zone seems to be trending from a North-South to East-South-East axis. Its north-western section encompasses the southern boundaries of the previously identified magnetic conductor on the Julie Project. When added to the T1 and T2 Zones already identified it covers a total 455 meters which is mineralized at or near surface.

From To Interval* Nickel Copper Cobalt
(Metres) (Metres) (Metres) (%) (%) (%)
T3 Channel 3 0.82* 2.76 1.93 0.39 0.108 0.012

Quebec Quartz Assay Results for Martinville Surpass Expectations, Validated as Suitable for Silicon Metal and High Purity Quartz Applications

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 12:45 PM on Tuesday, January 13th, 2015

Montreal, Quebec / January 13, 2015 / Uragold Bay Resources Inc. (“Uragold”) (TSX Venture: UBR) is pleased to announce that it’s wholly owned subsidiary, Quebec Quartz, has received assay results for samples taken on the Martinville Quartz (Silica) property located in Clifton county in the Eastern Townships region of Quebec.

The corrected SiO2 average for the 7 samples assayed is 99.63%, ranging from 99.42% to 99.82%. These results validate the fact that the quartz material from the Martinville Property would make suitable feedstock for Silicon Metal production and applications requiring high purity quartz.

Patrick Levasseur, President and COO of Uragold stated, “We are extremely happy with these results. They have surpassed our initial expectations and validated our decision to focus on our Martinville property since quartz mined from the region back in the 80’s was used for silicon metal production. Furthermore, the property is situated within 100 Km from a deep-sea harbour that can handle bulk shipments for worldwide exports, less then 500 Km from the future FerroAtlantica Port Cartier Silicon Metal production facilities and less then 100 Km from Globe Specialty Metals Becancour silicon metal production facilities.”

In 1995, a geophysical survey resulted in an exploration potential estimated at over 1,000,000 tons of SiO2 using the 200 m surface length of the quartz vein, with an average width of between 2 m and 23 m and assuming a continuation up to 30 M of depth. (GM53696: Pierre Vincent, Constellar Geosciences. 1995.).

All the information on exploration potential herewithin presented is historical in nature and while relevant, the information was obtained before the implementation of National Instrument 43-101 and as such does not meet National Instrument 43-101 reporting standards. The historical estimate should not be relied upon until the Company can confirm them.

IMPORTANCE OF QUARTZ (SILICA)

Quartz (SiO2) is one of the most abundant minerals. It occurs in many different settings and in many different rock types. However, High Purity Quartz deposits with low impurities are rare and only a few deposits are suitable in volume, quality and amenability to be tailored to refining methods for specialty high purity applications.

High Purity Quartz (HPQ), and Silicon Metal is used in large part in the aluminum industry while Ultra High Purity Quartz (UHPQ) has become one of today’s key strategic minerals with applications in high-tech industries that include semiconductors, LCD displays, fused quartz tubing, microelectronics, solar silicon applications and recently, Silicon Anode Lithium Batteries.

GO FORWARD PLAN:

The Corporation intends to advance the development of the Martinville project by completing the following steps during Q1 & Q2 2015:

  1. 1.Send material to specialized laboratories to find the best beneficiation process to transform the Martinville Quartz material into Ultra High Purity Quartz for advanced material and pharmaceutical applications.

High Purity Quartz beneficiated to 99.998% Si02 can command prices up to
US$ 6,000/T (Source: Dorfner Anzaplan). The Corporation intends to focus its interest on this segment of the market.

Run of mine quartz for Silicon Metal usage commands sale prices averaging between US$ 100/T to US$ 250/T.

  1. 2.Send quartz samples to Silicon Metal and other material buyers.

The chemistry of the Martinville quartz material meets end-user requirements for Silicon Metal production. Multiple end-users that have demonstrated interest in our projects are now requesting samples for thermal tests.

  1. 3.Evaluating the Property Potential.

The exploration potential of over 1,000,000 tons of SiO2 estimated in 1995 needs to be confirmed, map and measured to 43-101 standards.

AVERAGE 98.99 0.18 0.01 0.14 99.36 99.63%

The total exploration area of the Martinville deposit is 2.42 Km2. The deposit consists of hydrothermal quartz veins encased in schist’s. In order to have a good sampling spread, 7 samples were taken at different zones of the quartz vein outcrop.

Assay results confirm that the material is low to very low in all the major contaminants: Al2O3 average: 0.18%, range from <0.04% to 0.34%, Fe2O3 average: 0.01%, range from 0.01% to 0.03%, Co3O4 all samples <0.005%, CuO all samples <0.005%, MnO all samples <0.001%, NiO 6 samples <0.003%, one sample 0.008%, MgO all samples <0.01%, CaO 18 samples <0.01%, Na2O all samples <0.01%, K2O 5 samples <0.01%, the other 0.01% and 0.02%, TiO2 6 samples <0.01%, the other 0.01%, P2O5 average: 0.01%, range from 0.01% to 0.02%, Cr2O3 all samples <0.01%, V2O5 all samples <0.003%.

The material was first sent to the INRS (Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique) laboratory in Quebec City to be prepared for testing for Silica values. 7 prepared samples were sent to the Activation Laboratories in Ancaster, Ontario for whole rock and trace elements assay (FUS X-Ray Fluorescence (“XRF”)).

The average loss in ignition (“LOI”) (material and moisture burned off during the assays) for the 7 samples is 0.14% (ranging between 0.11% and 0.19%). This suggest that a certain percentage of the alkali metals are present as a carbonate molecule, and with an average laboratory total of 99.36% (ranging between 98.53 % and 100.5%), a correction for the loss of carbonate is required in order to present the actual SiO2 grade of the samples.

St-Georges to Focus on Julie Nickel Discovery; Withdrawal of Zambian Interest

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 1:29 PM on Friday, January 9th, 2015

Baie-Comeau, Quebec / January 9, 2015 / St-Georges Platinum and Base Metals Ltd. (CSE: SX) (FSE: 85G1) (US OTC: SXOOF) today announces its intention to terminate all efforts to acquire and develop projects in Zambia. The company had previously signed an agreement in February 2014 in order to acquire two sizeable Copper-Cobalt projects in Zambia. The difficulty to finalize a proper due diligence had forced the company to put these negotiations on hold in the summer of 2014. The Company had mentioned that it was entertaining the acquisition of another project in Zambia at that point without giving more details. The management of St-Georges has taken the strategic decision to focus all its attention to the new Nickel discovery at its wholly owned Julie Nickel Project.

FINANCIAL SITUATION & OTHER CORPORATE MATTERS

As of December 31, 2014 the Company had 34,504,463 shares issued and outstanding. It also had 1,182,692 outstanding options at a weighted average exercise price of $0.27 per share and, $230,000 of Convertible Debentures carrying an annual 6% cumulative interest rate expiring July 2, 2023. These Debentures are convertible at any time at a price related to average market prices subject to a minimum conversion rate of $0.10 per share. There are currently no outstanding warrants.

Internal, unaudited financial statements of the Company to December 31, 2014 show Net Assets of $1,512,249. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities in these unaudited financial statements at December 31, 2014 amounted to $557,340 and included an amount of $285,888 payable to Directors, Officers and Executives of St-Georges and $191,208.27 that are optional liabilities that the Company is currently reviewing.

JULIE NICKEL DISCOVERY

Results from Agat Laboratories are expected in the coming days from the latest surface campaign conducted on the Julie Nickel Project. Last week St-Georges published the initial results from the latest campaign. The table below constitute a recapitulation of these results already published in a press release on December 29, 2014:

Results Summary

A surface mineralized zone of 70 by 56 meters referred to as “T1” has been identified. All initial results below come from this zone. The ultramafic intrusive suite which hosts the new discovery can be traced in the geophysic data obtain by St-Georges in 2011 for approximately 13 kilometres on a WSW to NE trend. At this point it appears that the mineralized zone remains open in all directions.

The table below outline the initial and partial results from a 17.26 meters channel cut executed along the identified conductor on the T1 zone at a 45º angle:

From To Interval* Nickel Copper Cobalt
(Metres) (Metres) (Metres) (%) (%) (%)
T1 Channel 1 0 8.49 8.49 1.71 0.271 0.0347
including 0 3.62 3.62 2.07 0.31 0.04

* Reported channel cuts sections are not true widths. An apparent surface width of 15 meters can be calculated but at this time there is insufficient data with respect to the shape of the mineralization to calculate true orientations in space.

The starting point of the channel cut was located at N49° 57.463′ W69° 27.045′

Results from a man-held portable drill hole are also available. The hole was drilled from surface to the shallow depth of 0.52 meters at a 90º angle and was assay as a whole. The drill hole was located at N49° 57.467′ W69° 27.046′.

Gupta: ‘I am doubling down’ on medical marijuana


Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN Cheif Medical Correspondent. We have no affiliation with this well known medical expert, but his latest “Doubling Down” on the medical marijuana sector is worthy of your attention. Reasons such as these convince us we are doing the right thing in entering this market.

Medical marijuana and ‘the entourage effect’

Today, most Americans and most Canadians support some form of medical use of marijuana, in poll after poll.

Likewise, the legal marijuana industry is and will be heavily regulated, and we support that. We’ve already proven our ability to be transparent with our stakeholders and our ability to work within all applicable government regulations. We promise to deliver that transparency and dedication to the legal marijuana industry where these traits are a vital component towards ultimate success.


The medical marijuana business just might be one of the most recession-proof industry sectors there are. There is no boom and bust cycle that is apparent. The average demographic age in North America continues to increase, with over 44 million people in the USA today at the age of 65 or over. Age-related illnesses will continue to grow, and some fraction of these people looking for an alternative to opiate-based painkillers have a real need for pain-relief choices.

St. Georges New Nickel Discovery on the Julie Project in Quebec; Best Results Includes 2.07% Nickel Over 3.62 Meters

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 11:43 AM on Monday, December 29th, 2014

Baie-Comeau, Quebec / December 29, 2014 / St-Georges Platinum and Base Metals Ltd. (OTCQX: SXOOF) (CNSX: SX) (BSE: 85G1) today confirmed the presence of a significant zone of Nickel-Copper-Cobalt mineralization on its wholly-owned Julie project located on the Quebec North Shore. Initial results received from Agat Laboratories from the latest surface exploration campaign yielded some noticeable nickel grade intervals from channel samples, drill core and blast samples.

A surface area measuring 70 metres by 56 metres referred to as “T1 Zone” is the focus of this news release. All of the initial results provided in the table below are from this zone. The ultramafic intrusive suite that hosts the new discovery can be traced along a magnetic conductor identified in 2011, which runs for approximately 13 kilometres in a WSW to ENE trend. At this point, it appears that the mineralized zone remains open in all directions.

The table below outlines the initial and partial results from a 17.26 metre channel that was taken along the identified magnetic conductor on the T1 Zone at a 45? angle:

From To Interval* Nickel Copper Cobalt
(Metres) (Metres) (Metres) (%) (%) (%)
T1 Channel 1 0 8.49 8.49 1.71 0.271 0.0347
including 0 3.62 3.62 2.07 0.31 0.04

* Reported channel cuts sections are not true widths. An apparent surface width of 15 metres can be calculated, but at this time there is insufficient data with respect to the shape of the mineralization to calculate true orientations in space. The starting point of the channel cut was located at N49? 57.463′ W69? 27.045′ and cut at a 45? angle in relation with the mineralized body.

Results from a portable drill hole are also available. The hole was drilled from surface to the shallow depth of 0.52 metres at a 90? angle and the entire core was assayed. The drill hole was located at N49? 57.467′ W69? 27.046′.

From To Interval* Nickel Copper Cobalt
(Metres) (Metres) (Metres) (%) (%) (%)
T1 Hole #1 0 0.52 0.52 1.70 0.29 0.04

Finally, results from a representative 10.2 kg sample cut from a 81.42 kg blast sample block taken 18.6 metres away to the S-E of the T1-Channel-1’s starting location was also sent to the labs. The location of that sample was at N49? 57.454′ W69? 27.045′

Weight Nickel Copper Cobalt
(Kilogram) (%) (%) (%)
Blast Sample 8749 10.2 1.68 0.301 0.0345

Additional channel and portable drill core samples are expected to be received from Agat Laboratories by the end of January and will be released as they are made available. Maps and diagrams should be available in the coming days on the new company web site.

Quality Control

Mr. Joel Scodnick (P.Geo.), Vice-President Exploration of the Company, is the non-independent qualified person for the technical disclosure contained in this news release. Mr. Scodnick has supervised the work programs on the Julie Project, examined the samples summarized in this release, discussed, reviewed the results with the Company’s geological staff and reviewed the available analytical and quality control results.

Channel cuts samples and drill core samples were transported in sealed bags from Baie-Comeau to a warehouse facility in Montreal. There they have been opened, washed, photographed again, logged, resealed and transported to Agat Laboratories in Dorval, Quebec. Agat Laboratories transported the samples to their analytical facilities in Mississauga, Ontario. Base metal analyses were initially obtained via ICP-AES Aqua Regia and 4 Acid digestion. The two digestion methods show good correlation. Nickel values in excess of 10,000 ppm were reanalyzed using a sodium peroxide fusion followed by ICP-AES finish.

Robix Announces Construction of 10ft COV

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 4:07 PM on Thursday, December 18th, 2014

LETHBRIDGE, ALBERTA–(Dec. 18, 2014) – Robix Alternative Fuels, Inc. (“Robix” or the “Corporation”) (CSE:RZX)(FRANKFURT:R0X) announced today that it has commissioned Rayco Steel to build a 10ft patented Clean Ocean Vessel (COV). Based on market analysis Robix has decided to commence construction of a 10ft COV. The 10ft COV is ideally suited to 21st century technology that can allow it to be controlled remotely or unmanned.

“Our market analysis and customer consultation with major companies in the oil and gas business has demonstrated a clear demand for the 10ft COV especially in tailing ponds applications,” commented Nathan Hansen, President and CEO of Robix. “The 10ft COV is simply a scaled down version of the 40ft unit that is currently being built by Rayco. We expect to have the 40ft COV ready for deployment and prove sea worthiness in January. Our goal is to get ahead of the anticipated demand for the 10ft COV model by starting construction now. I am confident in our market analysis and the demand for our unique product.”

About Robix:

The Corporation is an “industrial products/technology” company, offering to investors a unique opportunity to participate in a leading company in the business of ownership of patents, and their development from commercialization to worldwide expansion through various business arrangements. Robix owns a Clean Ocean Vessel (“COV”) patent, which is an oil spill recovery vessel design with the capability to recover oil in rough and debris laden sea conditions. Robix has recognized a worldwide market opportunity for effective containment, recovery and disposal equipment, particularly in the oil spill protection industry, and it proposes to develop a business model as a service provider, and/or equipment provider under licensing agreements with other industry participants, wherein Robix will use its COV patented design solution.

No stock exchange or any securities regulatory body has reviewed the contents of this news release.
