Namaste Enters Into Non-Binding LOI With CannMart, a Late Stage ACMPR Applicant $N.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:51 AM on Tuesday, March 21st, 2017

Nlogo

  • Entered into a non-binding letter of intent with Cannmart Inc.
  • Namaste will purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of CannMart, a late stage applicant under the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations
  • CannMart submitted its application to become a “sales only” licensed producer of medical cannabis

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(March 21, 2017) –

NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES 

Namaste Technologies Inc. (“Namaste” or the “Company“) (CSE:N)(CSE:N.CN)(FRANKFURT:M5BQ)(OTCQB:NXTTF) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI“) with Cannmart Inc. (“CannMart“) whereby Namaste will purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of CannMart, a late stage applicant under the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (the “ACMPR“) (the “Contemplated Transaction“). In 2014, CannMart submitted its application to become a “sales only” licensed producer of medical cannabis (the “ACMPR Application“).

The Contemplated Transaction represents a significant strategic maneuver by Namaste in advance of the potential legalization and regulation of cannabis in Canada. The strategic rationale for the Contemplated Transaction includes:

  • Represents a logical expansion of the product portfolio and generates additional recurring revenue streams from existing and new customers throughout Canada. Creates a one-stop shopping platform for Canadian cannabis consumers;
  • Aligns with Namaste’s e-commerce capabilities and dataset of over 50,000 individuals in Canada, which represents a significant competitive advantage in terms of becoming one of the leading online retailers of cannabis;
  • Complements Namaste’s distribution expertise and relationships with the location of CannMart’s proposed facility enabling same day delivery in the Greater Toronto Area and 24-hour delivery within Canada. Namaste will seek to be the leading online retailer of cannabis in terms of fulfillment and customer service; and
  • Enhances the overall financial profile of the Company in terms of additional revenue and margin generation potential. Attractive non-cash purchase price based on comparable public companies within the industry.

CannMart’s ACMPR Application

CannMart’s ACMPR Application and proposed business model are unique in the industry as CannMart has applied only to sell and not produce medical cannabis. Under this model and subject to obtaining a licence from Health Canada, CannMart would have the ability to purchase wholesale medical cannabis from other licensed producers and sell to individual patients in accordance with the ACMPR.

The ACMPR Application has completed the “security clearance” stage and is currently in the “review” stage of the licensing process. CannMart’s proposed facility is a 4,000 sq. ft. industrial building located in Etobicoke, Ontario (the “Facility“). Pursuant to the LOI, the Company will assume all of the going forward liabilities and obligations of CannMart, including the remaining build-out costs needed to prepare the Facility for the final stages of the licensing process and the pre-licensing inspection.

Terms of the Contemplated Transaction

Upon execution of the LOI, Namaste paid $50,000 (the “Initial Payment“) in cash to CannMart’s counsel, to be held in trust and released upon closing of the Contemplated Transaction. If Namaste does not provide CannMart with notice of completion of its due diligence within 30 days of the execution of the LOI, the Initial Payment will become non-refundable. The parties anticipate signing a definitive agreement in mid-late April.

Consideration for the Contemplated Transaction will be satisfied with common shares in the capital of the Company. A portion of common shares of the Company will be issued on closing of the Contemplated Transaction, and the remaining common shares of the Company will be issued upon the occurrence of certain milestones. The share price shall be the five-day trailing volume weighted average price prior to the day on which the Company announces the Contemplated Transaction, subject to compliance with all stock exchange and regulatory requirements.

Clarus Securities Inc. is acting as financial advisor to Namaste in connection with the Contemplated Transaction.

Conditions to Closing

Closing of the Contemplated Transaction is subject to the following:

  • Completion of a definitive share purchase agreement containing representations, warranties and covenants customary in a transaction of this nature;
  • Completion of all financial and legal due diligence;
  • Execution of an employment or consulting agreement with each of CannMart’s existing team members for the purposes of the MMPR Application or longer;
  • Receipt of all director and shareholder approvals, if necessary, and requisite regulatory approvals of each party relating to the Contemplated Transaction;
  • Each of the current directors and officers of CannMart (other than as agreed to by Namaste) having delivered resignations and releases to CannMart; and
  • Such other documentation and closing conditions as are customary for transactions similar to the Contemplated Transaction.

Management Commentary

Mr. Sean Dollinger, President and CEO of Namaste, comments: “The acquisition of CannMart represents a significant strategic transaction for Namaste. One of the core competitive advantages of Namaste is the international customer list we have built, which enables us to enter markets with new product offerings and instantly generate revenues. The addition of consumables to our product offering in Canada is an excellent example of this competitive advantage and we see multiple opportunities to obtain additional licences in international jurisdictions where we have a strong customer foothold.”

Explor Intersects Multiple Copper Zones Grades Up to 2.36% Cu Over 11.5 Meters on the Chester Copper Property $EXS.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 1:46 PM on Thursday, March 16th, 2017

Exs logo

  • Multiple Copper Zones Grades Up to 2.36% Cu Over 11.5 Meters
  • Chief Executive Officer of Explor Resources Inc. commented: “We are extremely pleased and encouraged by these preliminary drill results. The presence of multiple copper mineralized zones in each of the holes drilled is very significant in terms of exploration. The increase in strike length of the known mineralization from 500 to 750 meters confirms the potential to significantly increase the resources on the property. The property continues to be open on strike to the west and Northwest.”

ROUYN-NORANDA, CANADA - (March 16, 2017) – Explor Resources Inc. (“Explor” or the “Corporation“) (TSX VENTURE:EXS)(OTCQB:EXSFF)(FRANKFURT:E1H1)(BERLIN:E1H1) is pleased to announce further results from the 12 Diamond Drill Holes completed on the Chester Copper Property. The Chester Copper property is located in the Northumberland County, 70 km southwest of Bathurst, New Brunswick and 50 km west-northwest of Miramichi, New Brunswick, within the Bathurst Mining Camp. This area has an extensive history in base metal production from VMS deposits.

There has been very little exploration work in this area of the Bathurst Mining Camp (BMC) since the initial exploration more than 60 years ago. Of significance also is the fact that three (3) age date studies of the rock in the area since 2005 have indicated an age of 469+/- 0.3 ma. All of the main largest VMS deposits in the BMC (including BMS #12 and #6, the Caribou Deposit (currently being developed by Travalli) and the past producing Heath Steele Mines, are associated with this age date for the footwall felsic rocks. That new data in 2007 places Explor’s Chester deposit is in the same time frame as the Brunswick Mining No. 12 and No. 6 deposits located in the BMC.

New Brunswick is the home of the No 12 massive sulphide deposit (The Brunswick Deposit) which was in continuous production from 1964 to its closure in March of 2013 (to Feb 2013, 135,903,168 tonnes milled at 3.44 % Pb, 8.74 % Zn, 0.37 % Cu and 102 g/t Ag). The Brunswick deposits (No 6 and No 12) are situated in the Nepisiguit Falls Group of rocks in the Lower Tetagouche group of the BMC. There are 46 known VMS deposits in the BMC.

The property is located in the southern-most part of the Bathurst Mining Camp and consist of 174 Mineral Claim Units within a total of five (5) Mineral Claims (1571, 2428, 6003, 6005 and 7045) comprising approximately 3,828 hectares as shown on the attached map.

Chris Dupont, President and Chief Executive Officer of Explor Resources Inc. commented: “We are extremely pleased and encouraged by these preliminary drill results. The presence of multiple copper mineralized zones in each of the holes drilled is very significant in terms of exploration. The increase in strike length of the known mineralization from 500 to 750 meters confirms the potential to significantly increase the resources on the property. The property continues to be open on strike to the west and Northwest.”

A total of 4 diamond drill holes were drilled on claim 1571. The first three diamond drill holes that were drilled were fan holes from the same location. This successfully tested the extension of the copper stringer zone for a distance of 250 meters west of previous drilling. The fourth drill hole was located approximately 100 meters west (and 38 meters south) of the first three drill holes, confirming the continuity of the mineralization to the west and Northwest and adding 250 meters of strike length to the known deposit. It intersected the target horizon and favorable geology from 49 meters to 172 meters.

Further to the west the copper deposit goes down dip and onto claim 6003. At about 1,100 meters west of the first drill hole, drill hole 6003-16-012 was drilled at a vertical dip. It eventually went to a depth of 600 meters and intersected previously unknown mineralization near surface (18 meters) and also extending the deep main Chester Stringer zone an additional 650 meters westward than any previous reliable drilling (i.e. casing in place and core in government storage). It also confirms the existence of the alteration zone and the host stratigraphic horizon to a depth not previously known or expected. The chloritized favorable horizon extends from a depth of 472.5 meters to 561 meters with low grade copper mineralization documented from 519 meters to 543 meters.

In the north part of claim 6003, an untested soil geochemical anomaly was tested. Copper mineralization was discovered as pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite veinlets in felsic volcanic associated with the soil anomaly. Copper mineralization was also discovered in this area in 2014 and a soil survey on claim 7045 to the west have unexplained copper and lead anomalies which may be associated with previously mentioned soil anomaly and this horizon.

To the south on Claim 6005, two drill holes were put down to test a soil anomaly apparently associated with a historical drill hole, dating to about the 1956 to 1958 era, with a reported value of more than 2% copper. No indication of any mineralization was discovered in the two drill holes.

The Thormodsdalur Project
The Opportunity
Iceland Resources EHF is an Icelandic corporation with gold/silver/copper/cobalt/zinc projects in Iceland. Amongst its projects are the 100% owned Reykjanes developmental project covering 897.5 km2  of licenced area that is in close proximity to Reykjavik and Keflavik and the gold project of Thormodsdalur located approximately 10km east of the city limits of the capital Reykjavik.
.Terms of Acquisition
St-Georges will create a new subsidiary in order to transfer its ownership of Iceland Resources. 40% of this subsidiary will be owned by the former Iceland Resources shareholders and the remaining 60% will be owned by St-Georges. Additionally, St-Georges make the following commitments:
  • Issuing 6,000,000 common shares of St-Georges to Iceland Resources’ shareholders with a 12-month escrow release schedule;
  • Issuing a $350,000 debenture, bearing a 6% annual interest (cash or shares), maturing in November 2026 to be distributed to Iceland Resources’ shareholders and some creditors; and
  • $1,000,000 of expenditure on the Iceland assets over the next 24 months, including mineral exploration expenses and metallurgical process research & development.
St-Georges Priorities in IcelandSt-Georges’ priority in Iceland will be to further explore the Thormodsdalur (Thor) gold project, which is currently in the process of being permitted for drilling later this summer.  The company plans a 3,000 meter diamond drilling campaign that will be comprised of twin-drilling certain historical drill holes and will add in-fill holes in the identified gold trend which strikes some 700 meters that has seen drilling in 2006.  The objective will be to gather enough data to be able to establish a first resource estimate by year end.Management of St-Georges will be publishing the summary of a geological due diligence report focused on the Thor Project and the drill core chemical analysis results that was commissioned to Dr Natasha Henwood as soon as Mr. Joel Scodnick and Mr. Herb Duerr, both Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101, complete their review.Thormodsdalur is located about 20km east of the city centre of Reykjavík and south-east of the lake Hafravatn. The project was discovered in 1908. The property produced mineral concentrate from 1911 to 1925 when over 300 meters of tunnels were dug below surface excavations. The ore recovered was transported to Germany and historic sources reported values ranging between 11g/t and 315g/t Au.  Note: All information pertaining to mineral resources, grades or operational results herewith presented are historical in nature and while relevant, the information was obtained from sources that cannot be independently verified.More recently, visible gold was seen in core from geothermal wells located on the project. This new discovery compelled the Icelandic government to create a mining entity for gold exploration in Iceland called Málmís.
The best intercepts from the diamond drilling are 33.5m @ 8.0 g/t Au (true thickness) and 5.2m @ 35.4 g/t Au (true thickness).
Iceland Resources entered into a Joint Venture agreement with Melmi EHF, Málmís EHF (majority government owned) and Gold Ísland Limited.  Melmi is the owner of the Thormodsdalur license that was first granted in October 2004. Melmi is owned by Málmís (51%) and Gold Ísland (49%).St-Georges obligation in order to complete the earn-in agreement and to crystalize its initial equity position of 41% of the joint-venture on Thormodsdalur  is for St-Georges to complete an additional 3,000 meters of drilling and publish a NI 43-101 compliant resource. Other Joint-Venture partners at this stage are the Iceland government controlled Malmis (30.1%) and Gold Island (28.9%) with St-Georges being the operator.
General Disclaimer: The current press release contains references to mineral sampling results from sources in the geological literature published by departments in the Icelandic government. .  St-Georges has not sampled and analysed all of these samples. Readers should exercise caution as real width, depth or length of mineralisation encounter is not always defined. No resource estimate that is compliant with the standards of the National Instrument 43-101 is currently available. The technical information in this release has been reviewed and approved by Mr. Herb Duerr, P. Geo. and Mr. Joel Scodnick, P. Geo. St-Georges vice-president exploration, both ‘qualified person’ as defined by National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

Tartisan Resources Corp. Signs an LOI for the Purchase of the Ichuna Copper-Silver Property in Peru $TTC.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:20 AM on Thursday, March 16th, 2017

Tartisan logo copy

  • Signed a letter of intent with Duran Ventures Inc.  for the purchase of the Ichuña Copper-Silver property in Peru
  • Recently entered into an LOI with Duran regarding the purchase of the Don Pancho property

Toronto, Ontario – Tartisan Resources Corp. (CSE: TTC) (“Tartisan”, or the “Company”) Tartisan Resources Corp. (“Tartisan” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the Company has signed a letter of intent (“LOI”) with Duran Ventures Inc. (V-DRV) for the purchase of the Ichuña Copper-Silver property (“Ichuña” or the “Project”) in Peru. Tartisan recently entered into an LOI with Duran regarding the purchase of the Don Pancho property (see Company’s new release dated February 22, 2017).

Tartisan has entered into an agreement with Duran to acquire 100% of the Ichuña Copper-Silver property in Peru located in the department of Moquegua, 825 kilometres southwest of Lima, comprising one concession of 1000 hectares. More specifically, the Ichuña property is located 120 kilometres northeast of Arequipa and is contiguous to the San Gabriel Project, previously called the Chucapaca Project, a gold-silver discovery announced in 2010 through a joint venture with Goldfields Ltd. and Compañia de Minas Buenaventura (“Buenaventura”). An initial resource of 83.7 MT, 1.9 g/t Au, 8.2 g/t Ag and 0.09% Cu for an 5.6 million equivalent Au ounces was published in May 2010*. *(https://www.goldfields.co.za/med_news_article.php?articleID=592)

In August 2014, Buenaventura announced the purchase of Goldfield’s 51-per-cent interest in the San Gabriel Project for $81-million (U.S.) and a 1.5% net smelter royalty (“NSR”) on all metal sales. Currently Buenaventura is proposing an underground mine at the project, specifically on the Canahuire gold zone, located approximately three kilometres to the south of the Ichuña project.

Duran acquired the 1000 hectare Ichuña concession in 2006 before the discovery at San Gabriel. Extensive high grade surface Cu-Ag mineralization was initially observed by Duran’s geologists and was later followed up by a property wide geophysical survey in 2010. The work identified a large IP geophysical anomaly trending northwest-southeast measuring over 1,500 metres in length. It is important to note that the discovery of the Canahuire zone was a blind target with a strong geophysical response. Economic mineralization in the Canahuire zone does not outcrop at surface and follows a recessive area. The geophysical anomaly on Ichuña has similar characteristics to the Canahuire zone.

Duran optioned the property to a third party in 2013 and limited work was undertaken, which included seven diamond drill holes totaling 2,754 metres. Drilling focused only along intrusive and limestone contact(s) where access and community agreements were in place. The drilling did not return significant results along this contact. More importantly, the IP target was not tested adequately as only one hole collared at the most south western tip was completed. A program of more detailed geophysics and diamond drilling is planned to test this extremely interesting target.

The agreement will permit Tartisan to acquire a 100% undivided interest in the Project by paying a total $50,000 and issuing 500,000 common shares by May 17, 2017. Upon completion of 5,000 metres of drilling and/or underground development, a further 150,000 shares are payable, and if a National Instrument 43-101-compliant resource is published, a further 150,000 shares are payable, and if the Company loses control of the project either by sale or joint venture, a further 200,000 shares are payable to Duran. Duran will retain a 2%NSR, of which half (1%) can be purchased by Tartisan for US$500,000.

Tartisan Resources Corp. common shares are listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE:TTC). Currently, there are 63,287,629 shares outstanding (82,759,982 fully diluted).

For further information on Tartisan, please contact Mr. D. Mark Appleby, President & CEO and a Director of the Company, at 416-804-0280 ([email protected]).

Explor Announces Kidd Township Diamond Drilling Program $EXS.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 11:22 AM on Wednesday, March 15th, 2017

Exs logo

  • Commenced of a Diamond Drilling Program on the Kidd Township Property
  • Completed a geophysical program consisting of mag and max/min to better define the targets in December 2016 and has started a 3,000 meter diamond drill program

ROUYN-NORANDA, QUEBEC–(March 15, 2017) – Explor Resources Inc. (“Explor” or “the Corporation”) (TSX VENTURE:EXS)(OTCQB: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 Open Pit in Kidd Township, 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 2,805.20 hectares as shown on the attached Property Map. The most obvious topographical feature in the area is the Open Pit located in the central portion of Explor’s Kidd Township group of Properties. Explor has completed a geophysical program consisting of mag and max/min to better define the targets in December 2016 and has started a 3,000 meter diamond drill program. The diamond drill program is underway and results are pending.

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 Open Pit 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 Open Pit (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 Group of Properties to the North, South, East and West of the existing Open Pit clearly warrant further investigation.

Some of the EM (Electromagnetic) targets occur along magnetic boundaries suggestive of Rhyolite/Basalt contacts. The Mine in the Center of the Kidd Township Group of properties has produced more than 153,000,000 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 Group of Properties with anomalous zinc and copper supports the opinion that additional VMS Deposits exist within the Kidd Township Group of Properties as shown on the attached map located in the Timmins/Porcupine Mining Camp.
