Monarques Gold $MQR.ca produces 4,932 ounces of #gold and generates $9.8 million in revenue in its third quarter $MUX.ca $SII.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:20 AM on Monday, April 23rd, 2018

  • Monarques produced 4,932 ounces of gold in its third quarter
  • Revenues of $9.8 million in the third quarter;
  • From the sale of 4,823 ounces of gold at an average price of $1,624 per ounce

MONTREAL, April 23, 2018 – MONARQUES GOLD CORPORATION (“Monarques” or the “Corporation”) (TSX.V:MQR) (OTCMKTS:MRQRF) (FRANKFURT:MR7) is pleased to report its production results and other highlights for the third quarter ended March 31, 2018. Amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.

Production highlights

  • Monarques produced 4,932 ounces of gold in its third quarter, a decrease of 9% from the 5,444 ounces produced the previous quarter, mainly due to the breakdown of ore haulage equipment at the Beaufor Mine and a planned shutdown for maintenance at the Camflo mill. As soon as the equipment was repaired, production resumed at the same pace as in the previous quarter.
  • The Corporation recorded revenues of $9.8 million in the third quarter, from the sale of 4,823 ounces of gold at an average price of $1,624 per ounce (US $1,284), combined with revenue from custom milling, which was up 17% for the quarter.
  • Monarques reported the final results of its 2017 drilling program at the Beaufor Mine. The results were from 52 holes totalling 7,157 metres of drilling, including 5 exploration holes (2,651 metres) and 47 definition holes (4,506 metres). The holes were drilled on several areas of the mine, including Zone Q, Zone QH2, Zone 32, and projects 350H, 1700 and Granodiorite East (see press release dated March 27, 2018).

Production statistics

Corporate highlights

  • On February 8, 2018, Monarques announced the results of the updated prefeasibility study for its wholly-owned Croinor Gold property, which showed improved project profitability and an increase in proven and probable reserves (see press release).
  • On February 13, 2018, the Corporation announced that it would prepare gold resource estimates for its McKenzie Break and Swanson properties in accordance with NI 43-101, and that it had retained the services of Géologica of Val-d’Or for the McKenzie Break property and InnovExplo Inc. for the Swanson property (see press release).
  • On February 22, 2018, the Corporation announced that it planned to drill a total of 50,000 metres in 2018 at the Beaufor Mine and the Croinor Gold property (see press release).
  • On March 12, 2018, Monarques closed a non-brokered private placement of units with the Government of Quebec through the Capital Mines Hydrocarbures fund managed by Ressources Québec, pursuant to which the Corporation issued 12,820,513 units at $0.39 per unit for total gross proceeds of $5 million (see press release).
  • On April 5, 2018, Monarques announced that it was investigating a potential game-changer for its Wasamac gold project. It has retained BBA to conduct a study for the transportation of gold-bearing material from the Wasamac deposit to an existing processing plant with an authorized tailings management facility in the region for custom milling (see press release).
  • At March 31, 2018, the Corporation had more than $18 million in cash.

Current project timelines

A summary of the key projects that have been initiated since the start of the third quarter, as well as their timelines, is as follows:

  • 30,000-metre drilling program at the Beaufor Mine: Drilling has started and will be ongoing throughout the year. Some results are expected soon.
  • 20,000-metre drill program at Croinor Gold: Drilling has started and will be ongoing throughout the year. Some results are expected soon.
  • BBA study to confirm the custom milling option for production at the Wasamac deposit: Conclusions are expected in May 2018.
  • Resource estimate for the McKenzie Break and Swanson properties: Conclusions are expected in June 2018.

“Our production results for the quarter were lower than we expected,” said Jean-Marc Lacoste, President and Chief Executive Officer of Monarques. “However, now that we have resolved the issues with the ore haulage equipment, the Beaufor Mine is back to producing at the same rate as in the previous quarter. We also foresee continued growth in our custom milling operations, which bodes well for the coming quarters. Our goal for the next quarters is still to increase production at the Camflo mill based on the Beaufor Mine ore and custom milling activities while cutting production costs. At the same time, we have started a number of projects since the beginning of the third quarter that should enable us to increase our gold resource and our production capacity.”

The technical and scientific content of this press release has been reviewed and approved by Marc-André Lavergne, P.Eng., the Corporation’s qualified person under National Instrument 43‑101.

$GRAT.ca Gratomic and Perpetuus Carbon Technologies Limited Enter Into an Agreement for the Exclusive Development and Marketing of Material Enhancing Graphenes

Posted by AGORACOM at 8:23 AM on Monday, April 23rd, 2018

 

  • Letter of collaboration with Perpetuus Carbon Technologies Limited
  • GRAT and Perpetuus to develop and market material enhancing graphite derived graphenes and graphene hybrids for tire elastomers
  • GRAT will purchase, and retain ownership, of three specialized process tooling chambers at an aggregate cost of 300,000 British Pounds

 

Gratomic Inc., is pleased to announce that the Company has signed a letter of collaboration (“Agreement”) with Perpetuus Carbon Technologies Limited (“Perpetuus”) pursuant to which GRAT and Perpetuus will develop and market material enhancing graphite derived graphenes and graphene hybrids for tire elastomers, whilst also exploring options to exploit polymer composites, energy capture and storage applications markets (“Project”).

The Agreement contemplates the first Phase of the Project (“Phase 1”), with the other phases to be described in a joint venture agreement to be entered into between GRAT and Perpetuus.

Pursuant to the Agreement, and as part of Phase 1, GRAT will purchase, and retain ownership, of three specialised process tooling chambers at an aggregate cost of 300,000 British Pounds. These specialized tooling chambers will be housed in Perpetuus’ existing facility in the United Kingdom. In addition to housing the specialized tooling chambers Perpetuus will contribute its Patented Project specific intellectual property, designed perfected and engineered by Perpetuus. In addition Perpetuus will also manage and maintain the specialized tooling chambers.

The Agreement contemplates the supply of Graphite from the Aukam Graphite mine in Namibia.

GRAT and Perpetuus will share equally all proceeds of sales after deductions of operating costs and Product purchasing costs.

Gratomic’s Chairman and CO-CEO Sheldon Inwentash stated:

“I am extremely pleased to announce that the Gratomic Perpetuus agreement completes the first stage of the Gratomic strategic plan to establish the first vertically integrated Graphite to Graphene to mass market product.”

Ian Walters Director – Perpetuus Carbon Technologies Limited stated:

“On road trials in the UK it has been duly established that the extra ordinary properties of the Gratomic Aukam Graphite derived graphenes provide enhancing properties for tire elastomer tread formulations. These conclusions are scientifically evidenced and duly recorded by the fact that the graphene enhanced tire tread significantly out performs a comparative size but more expensive premier branded Tire. We can only conclude that the Gratomic Tire due to be launched later this year is well placed to revolutionise the commercial Tire market and establish the first Graphite mine to commercial exploitation “vertical” for graphenes derived from mined graphite.”

About Gratomic Inc.

Gratomic Inc. is an advanced materials company focused on mine to market commercialization of graphite products most notably high value graphene based components for a range of mass market products.

The medical #marijuana industry is about to get much bigger, CannTrust CEO says $N.ca $NXTTF $TBP.ca $MCOA $ACB.ca $HIP.ca $WEED.ca $CMED.ca

  • The ramp up in Canada’s cannabis sector is ongoing
  • Industry estimates of sales eventually adding up to between $5 and $8 billion a year
  • By comparison, Canada produces a little under $3 billion of beer a year and about $1 billion in tobacco products.

April 19, 2018 By Jayson MacLean

Eric Paul

While all eyes are on the launch date for recreational cannabis in Canada —said to come in either late summer or early fall— the medical side of the equation should be getting the attention, as well, because it’s about to get much bigger, says Eric Paul, CEO of licensed producer CannTrust Holdings (TSX:TRST).

The ramp up in Canada’s cannabis sector is ongoing, with industry estimates of sales eventually adding up to between $5 and $8 billion a year. That’s substantial, since by comparison, Canada produces a little under $3 billion of beer a year and about $1 billion in tobacco products.

But while the rec market is getting all the focus, the medical marijuana industry both at home and abroad should be getting its props, since it’s growing by leaps and bounds.

“We’ve been astounded by the growth of the medical marijuana industry in Canada,” Eric Paul, CEO of CannTrust Holdings, tells BNN.

“Roughly ten or 12 per cent of the 80,000 doctors across Canada who could prescribe are prescribing [cannabis], and I would say we’re gaining on that for a number of reasons,” says Paul. “The first being the opiate crisis where doctors are looking for cannabis as a potential first-line therapy for pain management. The second thing is that there is more research coming out; we’re about to announce a couple of major research projects in Canada and one is a major pain management study. As these research projects produce their end result, more doctors are looking at cannabis as an alternate therapy for chronically ill people.”

Statistics Canada has reported that between April and December of last year, the number of clients registered under its Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (ACMPR) has gone from 174,503 to 269,502.

Paul says that CannTrust itself has a 40,000-strong patient base and is looking to jump to 100,000 in 12 months time.

“We’ve had a major expansion in Niagara: a 430,000 sq. ft. state of the art greenhouse which is up and running,” says Paul. “We believe that with that capacity and with the nature of that facility, we’ll be able to supply our current customer demand in the medical market and have sufficient capacity to handle the first generation of recreational demand.”

But aside from Canada’s own growing medical market, the international market is poised to take off in countries like Germany and Australia, and many of the top licensed producers in Canada are now lining up deals outside of Canada.

In March, CannTrust announced that it has entered into a joint venture agreement with a Danish company to grow and sell medical cannabis.

“The industry is globalizing much faster than any of us expected,” says Paul.

“Various countries are going into medical legislation and Denmark is one of those countries that have announced that we’re fully licensed there, we’ll be building a facility there,” he said. “In that country, the government has decided to fund the cost of it for the consumer, via prescription, and they’re willing to fund 100 per cent for people with palliative or end-of-life care and 50 per cent for chronic illness. That will allow those industries to quickly garner market share. Germany is a similar kind of situation and also Australia.”

  • The platform was built over more than a year using Quorum, a type of open-source blockchain that JPMorgan has developed inhouse.
  • Banks have poured millions of dollars to develop blockchain to streamline processes ranging from cross-border payments to securities settlement.
  • JPMorgan is considering spinning off Quorum because the technology has attracted significant outside interest.

Pedestrians cross a foot bridge towards the offices of global financial institutions, including JPMorgan Chase & Co. and the commercial office block No. 1 Canada Square, in the Canary Wharf financial, shopping and business district in London, U.K.

J. P. Morgan Chase & Co has tested a new blockchain platform for issuing financial instruments with the National Bank of Canada and other large firms, they said on Friday, seeking to streamline origination, settlement, interest rate payments and other processes.

The test on Wednesday mirrored the Canadian bank’s $150 million offering on the same day of a one-year floating-rate Yankee certificate of deposit, they said in a statement. The platform was built over more than a year using Quorum, a type of open-source blockchain that JPMorgan has developed inhouse and is in discussions to spin off.

Participants in the experiment included Goldman Sachs Asset Management, the fund management arm of Goldman Sachs Group Inc, Pfizer Inc and Legg Mason Inc’s Western Asset and other investors in the certificate of deposit.

Banks have poured millions of dollars to develop blockchain, the software first created to run cryptocurrency bitcoin, to streamline processes ranging from cross-border payments to securities settlement.

“Blockchain-related technologies have the potential to bring about major change in the financial services industry,” David Furlong, senior vice president of artificial intelligence, venture capital and blockchain at National Bank of Canada, said in a statement.

JPMorgan is considering spinning off Quorum because the technology has attracted significant outside interest, Umar Farooq, head of blockchain initiatives for JPMorgan’s corporate and investment bank said in an interview.

He said it was taking too much time to field requests for help from users at other companies.

Charging for assistance is not an option because software support is not the bank’s business, a person familiar with the matter said on condition of anonymity. The source was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.

The spin-off discussions are in the early stages and the bank has received interest from financial institutions and large enterprise technology companies, Farooq added. He declined to name the companies.

JPMorgan plans to beef up the Quorum team with dozens of engineers from the bank’s other divisions who have become familiar with the technology, he said.

Blockchain is in the early stages of development in the financial industry, but JPMorgan is optimistic about its potential, Farooq said.

“We haven’t really seen a lot of really large scale things go into production yet. There are few cases where blockchain can really shine.”

$NSM.ca Northern Sphere Mining Corp. to Follow up on Cobalt Values up to 0.23% Sampled from Various Showings on Its Sudbury District Scadding Property

Posted by AGORACOM at 6:00 PM on Thursday, April 19th, 2018

 

 

  • Cobalt identified in 0.20 and 0.23% 2 KM apart from each other
  •  Scadding hosts abundant Nippissing diabase intrusives with a NW-SE orientation
  • Mineral resources found on the property are clustered and parallel to the Nippissing dykes
  • At the Scadding Property, favourable geological context also occurs in contact zones between the Nippissing intrusives and a competent host rocks

Northern Sphere Mining Corp. (CSE: NSM) (OTCQB: NSMCF) (“Northern Sphere” or the “Company”) will be investigating known Cobalt anomalies on its Scadding Property located in Sudbury’s Nickel District. Outcrop sampling at two separate mineral showings, approximately 2 km apart, returned values of 0.23% Cobalt (Red Rock Occurrence) and 0.20% Cobalt (McLean Secret Showing). Geophysical signatures identified by Northern Spherein 2017 correlate well with the location of these outcrops. The 3D magnetic re-inversion (which re-interprets and models three dimensional geophysical data) identified several optimal targets on our 40,000-acre property.

In addition to the significant Cobalt values recovered from outcrop sampling, Northern Sphere also analysed for Cobalt as part of a multi-element package on its last hole during the 2017 drill campaign. Hole NSM-17-06 returned values of up to 189 ppm Cobalt and 678 ppm Nickel from drill core exhibiting strong chloritized segments. Northern Sphere intends to analyse a percentage of similar material from its core storage facility for both Cobalt and Nickel. Currently, Northern Sphere is prioritizing optimized drill targets for its 2018 drill campaign.

Scadding Property — Sudbury District, Ontario

The Scadding Property is nestled at the junction between the Abitibi-Wawa greenstone belt (which encompasses the Sudbury Igneous Complex), the Grenville Front, and the Huronian Supergroup (see Figure 1). The Scadding Property is located at a large scale structural junction. World class base metal deposits are located to the West (Sudbury Nickel District) and precious metal deposits are located to the East (River Valley Pt-Pd, Cobalt Silver).

The Scadding Property plays host to abundant Nippissing diabase intrusives which utilized pre-existing structure during emplacement. The intrusives demonstrate a preferred NW-SE orientation. Mineral resources found on the property are clustered within these corridors and parallel to the Nippissing dykes. Within the Cobalt, Ontario Camp, Silver and Cobalt mineralization are generally found in proximity to the Nippissing Diabase. At the Scadding Property, favourable geological context also occurs in contact zones between the Nippissing intrusives and a competent host rocks (i.e. quartzite of the Serpent Formation).

Northern Sphere will continue to advance and acquire district scale properties for successful future mineral exploitation.

  • According to Mediakix, female gamers make up 63-percent of the total,
    • 60-percent playing every day.
  • That’s as compared to 37-percent and 47-percent for males, respectively.
  • Only 31-percent of men spend real money in games compared to a number that appears higher for women with that number being at 36-percent

A new report released by Mediakix has some statistics to show with regard to the demographics of mobile gaming, as well as trends in spending and expected industry growth. There’s actually quite a lot of information revealed by the study but the company has provided a helpful infographic to break down some of the key figures. It should come as no surprise that the market is expected to hit a value of around $115 billion this year or that its expected to increase by $72 billion by 2020. Mobile gaming is already a $50 billion industry and its only March.

The demographics of who those gamers are is very interesting, especially when compared to some other studies that were recently completed. For example, another infographic from earlier this month – conducted by AppOptix for U.S. users- showed only a slight gap between how much time men and women spend on their mobile devices. That gap was only at around 6-percent, with men using their devices more. If those figures hold true, then it turns out women may be playing far more mobile games in that time than men. According to Mediakix, female gamers make up 63-percent of the total, with 60-percent playing every day. That’s as compared to 37-percent and 47-percent for males, respectively. Meanwhile, only 31-percent of men spend real money in games compared to a number that appears higher for women with that number being at 36-percent.

That may or may not need to be taken with a grain of salt, though, bearing in mind that Mediakix study was on the global scale. Figures for age demographics in mobile gaming do appear to be a bit different between sources. Mediakix, for example, says that of the 2.1 billion mobile gamers worldwide, the largest age group for gaming on smartphones at 38-percent is those aged 45-years or more. In the U.S., according to AppOptix, the 45 and older group plays the least. That same study showed that those aged 26 to 36 fell in with only slightly more play time per week, while this new study shows users between 25 and 34 as making up 19-percent of gamers. Some cohesiveness is there to be found, on the other hand, in the fact that both studies show that users under 26 make up the big chunk of mobile gamers. The new numbers place that group at around 22-percent, while the earlier reports showed that group to be the largest. Of course, those aren’t the only figures revealed by the study and the comparisons aren’t necessarily directly correlated. But the figures are well worth examning nonetheless. Anybody interested in learning more can check out the included infographic or head over to the source link below.
