Pacific North West Capital Acquires 4th 100% Owned Lithium Project Lithman North Project, Southeast Manitoba $PFN.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:17 AM on Wednesday, June 15th, 2016

  • -The company acquires 4th 100% owned Lithium project-Lithman North Project is 15 kilometers to the northwest of the Tanco Mine site in southeast Manitoba-The Tanco Mine was Canada’s largest producer of Spodumene, Tantalum and Cesium, producing from the Tanco Pegmatite

    -Spodumene is mined from Pegmatites and is one of the primary Lithium ore minerals in hard rock Lithium mines

    -Lithman North project is situated approximately 17 kilometers to the northwest of the Lithium West Project and 12 kilometers north of the Lithium One Project.

    -To date this brings the total amounts of company’s claims in the Winnipeg River Pegmatite Field to 21, for a total of 3,691 hectares (9,120 acres)

June 15th, 2016 Vancouver, Canada / Pacific North West Capital Corp. (“PFN”, the “Company”) (TSX.V: PFN; Frankfurt: P7J.F; OTCQX: PAWEF announces that it has acquired another Lithium project in southeast Manitoba through staking. The project will be held by Lithium Canada, which is a 100% subsidiary of PFN.

The Lithman North Project is situated to the northwest of the present day Tanco Mine, which currently is producing Cesium Formate, a completion fluid for the petroleum industry. The Tanco Mine, was previously known as North America’s largest producer of Spodumene, Tantalum and Cesium. Spodumene is one of the primary Lithium ores minerals in hard rock Lithium mines. The 100% owned project consists of 3 claims for a total area of 372 hectares (919 acres).

The project area is situated in the Bird River Greenstone Belt and was staked to cover several large Pegmatites as found on government maps. The Pegmatites have had little exploration and there are no historical records. A field review of the Pegmatites showed them to be Albite Pegmatites with a complex mineralogy. Field work is being planned to explore them for the summer of 2016. They are located approximately 15 kilometers to the northwest of the Tanco Minesite and on the northern margin of the Winnipeg River Pegmatite Field.

The Tanco Pegmatite was discovered on the west side of Bernic Lake from surface drilling in the 1920’s. The mine went into production in 1969 and has produced over the years, in varying capacity, and is still producing today. It is a buried Pegmatite and not exposed at surface, except for under Bernic Lake. It is an extremely fractionated, rare-metal, complex type-Petalite subgroup, LCT (Lithium-Cesium-Tantalum) Pegmatite and is hosted by a late stage, subvolcanic Gabbro. The total tonnage of the Tanco Gabbro Pegmatite has been calculated to be approximately 25 million tons. It is a part of the Bernic Lake Pegmatite Group of the Winnipeg River Pegmatite Field.

The company considers the Lithman North Project to have the potential to host additional Lithium-bearing Pegmatites similar to others found in the region. The area has strong infrastructure and is an active mining area. The staking of this additional ground has increased the claims in the Winnipeg River Pegmatite Field to 21 for a total of 3,691 hectares (9,120 acres). Lithman North Project is situated approximately 17 kilometers to the northwest of the Lithium West Project and 12 kilometers north of the Lithium One Project. The project has excellent infrastructure and is located approximately 150 km (93 miles) northeast of the provincial capital, Winnipeg. Claims are to the east of Bird Lake and a gravel based highway (HWY 315) runs through the project area.

With respect to the Lithman North Project, a finder’s fee in the amount of 60,000 shares of the Company is payable to Carey Galeschuk. The finder’s fee is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval.

All shares issued in connection with the finder’s fee are subject to a four month and one day hold period from the date of issuance.

Further announcements with regards to joint venture partners and exploration plans will be forthcoming.

About The Company’s Lithium Division

The company’s new Lithium Division will focus on the acquisition, exploration and development of Lithium Projects in Canada. In the United States the company will use its wholly owned U.S.A subsidiary to acquire and develop projects in active mining camps in Nevada, Arizona and California.

Management believes that these new age metals, Lithium, PGM’s and Rare Earths, have robust macro trends with surging demands and limited supply. Going forward, this new division will explore for the minerals needed to fuel the demand for energy storage and other core 21st Century Technologies.

The company has a growing portfolio of Lithium projects. The Clayton Valley Forks Li Project in Nevada is a recent Lithium brine project acquired by the company (PFN News Releases April 25th, 2016 and May 9th, 2016). The company also has hard rock Lithium projects in Canada (PFN News Releases April 21st, 2016 and May 24th, 2016).

Lithium and Platinum Group Metal prices have improved dramatically in recent months. Lithium supplies remain in deficit relative to their demand. Both metals groups are used for the expanding worldwide automobile industry (conventional and electric). In the case of PGM’s, demand is increasing for autocatalysts, a key component for reducing toxic emissions for automotive, gasoline and diesel engines. In regards to Lithium, there is an ever increasing demand for batteries in cellphones, laptops, electric cars, solar storage, wireless charging and renewable energy products.

PhytoPain Pharma Files Clinical Trial Application (CTA) for a Topical Product for the Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Neuropathic Pain $GCI.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:54 AM on Wednesday, June 15th, 2016

Growpros

  • Announced that it has filed a Clinical Trial Application (CTA) with Health Canada for PhytoPain Topical Gel Relief (PPTGR), a locally administered therapeutic for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain (CINP)
  • Upon approval of the CTA, the Company plans to initiate a double-blind, randomized, cross-over, placebo-controlled clinical study with PPTGR in late 2016 and expects to report initial clinical data from the trial in late 2017

OTTAWA, ONTARIO–(June 15, 2016) – PhytoPain Pharma (PPP) Inc., a subsidiary of GrowPros Cannabis Ventures Inc. (“GrowPros” or the “Company” or “GCI“) (CSE:GCI), today announced that it has filed a Clinical Trial Application (CTA) with Health Canada for PhytoPain Topical Gel Relief (PPTGR), a locally administered therapeutic for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain (CINP). Upon approval of the CTA, the Company plans to initiate a double-blind, randomized, cross-over, placebo-controlled clinical study with PPTGR in late 2016 and expects to report initial clinical data from the trial in late 2017.

CINP is a common adverse effect of cancer therapy and a frequent reason why cancer patients stop their treatment early. For some patients, the severity of the symptoms can be reduced by lowering the dose of chemotherapy or temporarily stopping it. In other patients, the symptoms of CINP may last for months or years after the cancer therapy has stopped. CINP symptoms are managed using the same analgesics used to manage other types of neuropathic pain. Some of these analgesics also cause intolerable side effects in patients. The use of a topical counterirritant may help reduce the symptoms of CINP and avoid exposing some patients to oral neuropathic pain analgesics.

According to Dr. Guy Chamberland, the Company’s Chief Scientific Officer, “PPP is developing this topical product to provide cancer patients a safer, natural and more tolerable alternative in the management of CINP”. The development of the PPTGR product is in line with PPP’s strategy to bring an integrative medical approach for cancer patients suffering from pain. “The demonstration of the safety and efficacy of botanical drugs including cannabis for pain management is a critical step in the development of an evidence-based approach to integrative medical care. PPP intends on working with physicians to demonstrate that PPTGR can be safely used as an adjunct to inhalation and oral medical marijuana for the reduction of pain in cancer patients. Physicians need additional drugs that can help reduce the amount of narcotics required to manage pain while minimizing the risk of psycho active effects or tolerance to opioids, cannabis, and other narcotics commonly prescribed to patients. The intention is to develop PPTGR, and other botanical-based drugs, as adjuncts to the standard of care,” stated Dr. Chamberland.

PPTGR is a counterirritant topical gel that conforms to the Natural and Non-prescription Health Products Directorate (NNHPD) monograph. However, the intended use of counterirritant products under the NNHPD monograph does not include the temporary relief of CINP. PPP is launching a clinical trial to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of PPTGR in cancer patients with CINP and work with medical oncologists to integrate the use of PPTGR in the management of CINP.

International research indicates that 60% of patients undergoing chemotherapy will suffer from varying degrees of CINP during their treatment. PPP believes it can demonstrate increased symptom alleviation using natural based agents and mixtures as opposed to the synthetic alternatives. “PPP was created to conduct cannabinoid and medicinal plant based research with the goal of developing over-the-counter products for consumers and prescription drug products for physicians that can be distributed through the existing pharmaceutical infrastructure. This submission is the first step in the growth of our vision,” commented CEO Ryan Brown.

CINP Market Size and comparison products

MARKET STATISTICS:

There were an estimated 15.2 million cancer cases globally in 2014 according to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) with projections of 17.1 million cases in 2020. Roughly 25%-30% of cancer patients receive chemotherapy, and of those patients, 70%-80% experience a form of CINP. The global CINP market saw estimated revenue of $1.3 billion in 2014 with a projected 5.7% compounded annual growth rate through 2020 as cancer rates climb with growing, aged populations. Of the products available Oral delivery drug of dronabinol which is comprised of synthetic cannabinoids had sales of $110M in 2014. Similar to other mainly orally administered cannabinoids, results in relatively low bioavailability, coupled with irregular pharmacokinetics secondary to absorption variability and first-pass metabolism by the liver, complicated by the need for multiple dosages per day. In addition, many patients report nausea and/or vomiting as a side-effect related to the drug. (NEMUS BIO SCIENCE)

Many studies have concluded that natural cannabinoids offer a safer, more effective solution than their synthetic counterparts. A recent article entitled Comparison of Outcome Expectancies for Synthetic Cannabinoids and Botanical Marijuana, from The American Journal of Drug and Alcohol Abuse, concluded that given growing public acceptance of recreational and medical marijuana, coupled with negative perceptions and increasing regulation of synthetic cannabinoid compounds, botanical marijuana is likely to remain more available and more popular than synthetic cannabinoids.

PPP is proud to position itself as a leader in the development of natural pharmaceuticals derived Cannabis and other medicinal plants,” commented CEO Ryan Brown.

  • Announced that it has now completed the sale to Tudor Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:TUD) of certain of its interests in the Electrum property and the Treaty Creek property, both of which are located in the “Golden Triangle” in NW British Columbia

CARDSTON, ALBERTA – (June 14, 2016) – American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:AMK) (“American Creek“) is pleased to announce that it has now completed the sale to Tudor Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:TUD) (“Tudor“) of certain of its interests in the Electrum property and the Treaty Creek property, both of which are located in the “Golden Triangle” in NW British Columbia (refer to our previous news release dated May 11, 2016).

Pursuant to a joint venture agreement entered into with Tudor, American Creek sold an undivided 60% interest in its Electrum property in consideration for 1,000,000 Tudor shares and the payment of $500,000 cash. Tudor also invested $250,000 into American Creek by way of a private placement under which American Creek issued 3,125,000 shares at a price of $0.08 per share to Tudor. All shares issued under this agreement are subject to both a 4 month statutory/regulatory hold period as well as a voluntary hold period which expires May 10, 2017. A 60/40 joint venture has now been formed and Tudor is the operator of the project.

Pursuant to a separate joint venture agreement entered into with Tudor and Teuton Resources Corp. (“Teuton“), American Creek sold an undivided 31% interest in its Treaty Creek property to Tudor in consideration for 500,000 Tudor shares. A joint venture has now been formed with Tudor holding a 60% interest and each of American Creek and Teuton holding a 20% interest in the joint venture. Both American Creek’s and Teuton’s 20% interests are fully carried during the exploration period until a production notice is given. Thereafter, each will be responsible for 20% of the costs under and subject to the terms of the joint venture. Tudor is the operator of the project. Under the terms of the agreement, Tudor has agreed to complete a minimum of $1,000,000 in exploration expenditures on the Treaty Creek property during 2016. All shares issued under this agreement are subject to both a 4 month statutory/regulatory hold period as well as a voluntary one year hold period.

Darren Blaney, American Creek’s CEO, states: “We are pleased to have closed these two JV transactions with Walter Storm’s Tudor Gold Corp. We are very much looking forward to the advancement of both the Treaty Creek and Electrum projects.

The Treaty Creek property is located immediately adjacent to, and on geological trend with Seabridge Gold’s KSM project and north of the Pretivm Resources Brucejack project. The Sulphurets Thrust Fault, which has been identified by BC government geologists as being related to all of Seabridge’s KSM property gold-copper deposits, continues northeast through the Treaty Creek property.

The Electrum property is located approximately 45km north of Stewart, British Columbia, near past operating mines including the Riverside, Scotty Gold, Granduc, Big Missouri and Silbak-Premier. The Electrum is road accessible and is only 45km from recently upgraded concentrate shipping port facilities located in Stewart. A new electrical power line currently being constructed by Pretivm Resources runs right up the valley beside the Electrum project and may provide a future source of power. The Electrum property encompasses the historic East Gold Mine which has produced extremely high grades of gold, silver and electrum in the past, over 25 years of small-scale hand mining. Past work completed by American Creek has identified several areas on the property which contain very high grade gold and silver vein systems.

Pacific North West Capital to Change its Name to NeWage Metals Inc. $PFN.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:06 AM on Thursday, June 9th, 2016

  • Mr. Harry Barr, Chairman and CEO noted that to better reflect the Company’s business plan and with the addition of a second “Green Metal Division” the Board of Directors of PFN have approved a name change of the Company, from Pacific North West Capital to “NewAge Metals Inc.”

No Share Consolidation -Share Structure to remain the same

June 9, 2016 / Vancouver, Canada – Pacific North West Capital Corp. (“PFN”, or the “Company”) (TSX.V: PFN; Frankfurt: P7J.F; OTCQB: PAWEF) – Mr. Harry Barr, Chairman and CEO noted that to better reflect the Company’s business plan and with the addition of a second “Green Metal Division” the Board of Directors of PFN have approved a name change of the Company, from Pacific North West Capital to “NewAge Metals Inc.” The website NewAgeMetals.com is near completion. There will be no change to the corporate structure (ie: no share consolidation) and in the meantime the Company will continue to aggressively pursue its business plan. The name change will be subject to regulatory approval and is anticipated to be completed within 90 days.

In April 2016 the Company added a Lithium Division, Lithium Canada Development Inc. (LI Canada) to its’ Platinum Group Metal Division (PGMD). In the U.S., the Company is expanding and developing its lithium division; the Board believes NewAge Metals Inc. better reflects the Go Forward Plan for the Company. For additional corporate information please go to www.pfncapital.com and Opt in to be on the Company’s news dissemination list.

About The Company’s Lithium Division

The Company’s new Lithium Division will focus on the acquisition, exploration and development of Lithium Projects in Canada. In the United States the Company will use its wholly owned U.S.A subsidiary to acquire and develop projects in active mining camps in Nevada, Arizona and California.

Management believes that these new age metals, Lithium, PGM’s and Rare Earths, have robust macro trends with surging demands and limited supply. Going forward, this new division will explore for the minerals needed to fuel the demand for energy storage and other core 21st Century Technologies.

The Company has a growing portfolio of Lithium projects. The Clayton Valley Forks Li Project in Nevada is a recent Lithium brine project acquired by the Company. (PFN News Releases April 25th, 2016, May 9th, 2016 and May 24th, 2016) The Company also has hard rock Lithium projects in Canada.

Lithium and Platinum group metal prices have improved dramatically in recent months. Lithium supplies remain in deficit relative to their demand. Both metals groups are used for the expanding worldwide automobile industry (conventional and electric). In the case of PGM’s, demand is increasing for autocatalysts, a key component for reducing toxic emissions for automotive, gasoline and diesel engines. In regards to Lithium, there is an ever increasing demand for batteries in cellphones, laptops, electric cars, solar storage, wireless charging and renewable energy products.
