VANCOUVER, British Columbia, September 07, 2021–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Fancamp Exploration Ltd. ("Fancamp" or the "Corporation") (TSX Venture Exchange: FNC) is pleased to announce that on Friday, September 3, 2021, the Supreme Court (British Columbia) ("SCBC") dismissed all of Mr. Peter H. Smith’s remaining applications in relation to the Corporation’s annual general meeting ("AGM"). The SCBC had previously dismissed Mr. Smith’s application for the AGM to be held on July 26, 2021.

As to Mr. Smith’s remaining applications, the SCBC:

Dismissed the application to replace Mr. Mark Billings with an independent chair because Mr. Smith had failed to show any improper act or omission by the Board of Directors or Mr. Billings;

Ruled that all votes collected through Broadridge QuickVote will be counted and that cancelling those votes – as Mr. Smith had requested – could disenfranchise those shareholders; and

Dismissed the application that Fancamp be ordered not to close the ScoZinc transaction until any applications arising from the conduct of the meeting are resolved on the ground that Mr. Smith was required to show that there was a serious issue to be tried and had failed to do so;

(collectively, the "Dismissed Applications").

AGM Date

Fancamp is committed to holding the AGM as soon as possible and will advise shareholders of a new date in due course. The AGM, which was originally scheduled for June 29, 2021, was postponed to accommodate the court application. After stalling for a month, Mr. Smith, just two weeks before the meeting, filed a last-minute petition, making a fair hearing of the petition impossible. Fancamp wanted to ensure that, in spite Mr. Smith’s tactical games, there was a fair court hearing and postponed the AGM.

In addition, the forensic investigation with KPMG into Mr. Smith’s past conduct is progressing. However, given Mr. Smith’s continued refusal to provide documentation (despite repeated demands) and history of poor or non-existent record keeping during his time as CEO, more time is required to complete the investigation. The Corporation looks forward to providing full updates as soon as possible.

VOTE YOUR GOLD PROXY TODAY

Shareholders are encouraged to continue voting on the GOLD proxy FOR Fancamp’s director nominees.

If you have mistakenly voted on Mr. Smith’s green proxy or want to change your vote, you may do so by voting on the GOLD proxy. This will revoke and replace the previous vote.

If you have any questions or need help voting, please contact Kingsdale Advisors at 1-800-749-9890 or contactus@kingsdaleadvisors.com.

Warren Buffett famously said, 'Volatility is far from synonymous with risk.' So it might be obvious that you need to consider debt, when you think about how risky any given stock is, because too much debt can sink a company. Importantly, Ucore Rare Metals Inc. (CVE:UCU) does carry debt. But should shareholders be worried about its use of debt?

When Is Debt Dangerous?

Debt is a tool to help businesses grow, but if a business is incapable of paying off its lenders, then it exists at their mercy. Ultimately, if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt, shareholders could walk away with nothing. While that is not too common, we often do see indebted companies permanently diluting shareholders because lenders force them to raise capital at a distressed price. By replacing dilution, though, debt can be an extremely good tool for businesses that need capital to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about a company's use of debt, we first look at cash and debt together.

View our latest analysis for Ucore Rare Metals

How Much Debt Does Ucore Rare Metals Carry?

As you can see below, at the end of March 2021, Ucore Rare Metals had CA$2.89m of debt, up from CA$1.25m a year ago. Click the image for more detail. But on the other hand it also has CA$7.21m in cash, leading to a CA$4.33m net cash position.

A Look At Ucore Rare Metals' Liabilities

According to the last reported balance sheet, Ucore Rare Metals had liabilities of CA$2.07m due within 12 months, and liabilities of CA$1.88m due beyond 12 months. Offsetting this, it had CA$7.21m in cash and CA$709.2k in receivables that were due within 12 months. So it can boast CA$3.97m more liquid assets than total liabilities.

This surplus suggests that Ucore Rare Metals has a conservative balance sheet, and could probably eliminate its debt without much difficulty. Succinctly put, Ucore Rare Metals boasts net cash, so it's fair to say it does not have a heavy debt load! There's no doubt that we learn most about debt from the balance sheet. But it is Ucore Rare Metals's earnings that will influence how the balance sheet holds up in the future. So when considering debt, it's definitely worth looking at the earnings trend. Click here for an interactive snapshot.

Since Ucore Rare Metals has no significant operating revenue, shareholders probably hope it will develop a valuable new mine before too long.

So How Risky Is Ucore Rare Metals?

We have no doubt that loss making companies are, in general, riskier than profitable ones. And in the last year Ucore Rare Metals had an earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) loss, truth be told. Indeed, in that time it burnt through CA$5.0m of cash and made a loss of CA$5.3m. With only CA$4.33m on the balance sheet, it would appear that its going to need to raise capital again soon. Even though its balance sheet seems sufficiently liquid, debt always makes us a little nervous if a company doesn't produce free cash flow regularly. There's no doubt that we learn most about debt from the balance sheet. However, not all investment risk resides within the balance sheet – far from it. For instance, we've identified 5 warning signs for Ucore Rare Metals (2 are a bit unpleasant) you should be aware of.

When all is said and done, sometimes its easier to focus on companies that don't even need debt. Readers can access a list of growth stocks with zero net debt 100% free, right now.

BEDFORD, NS / ACCESSWIRE / September 7, 2021 / (TSXV:SSE) – Silver Spruce Resources Inc. ("Silver Spruce" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the receipt of assays from the first ten holes of its Phase 1 exploration drilling at the El Mezquite Au-Ag property ("El Mezquite" or the "Property"). A total of 2,485 metres were drilled in twenty (20) holes covering eight collar locations.

Figure 1. El Mezquite property showing RC rig from Layne de Mexico

"We received favourable precious metal assays in nine of the first ten holes consistent with our exploration expectations for a low-grade, heap-leachable target with mineralization in the range of 0.1 g/t Au to 1.0 g/t Au. Thirty-one sampling intervals, ranging from surface to 146.4 metre depth downhole, are shown in Table 1, including up to five separate sections in one hole (MEZ-005), are reported from 0.1 g/t Au to 0.955 g/t Au. Discrete sections of >0.1 g/t Au with multiple samples reached a maximum of 4.58 metres. Silver values ranged from 1 g/t Ag to 241 g/t Ag and elevated Ag occurred commonly with higher Au and base metals. Au-Ag zoning or stacked mineralized structures could be indicated given no clear relationship of Ag to associated Au grades," stated Greg Davison, Silver Spruce Vice-President Exploration and Director. "The mineralized intervals, identified to date, reflect the thickness of the vein and structurally controlled surface showings. Of importance to the geochemical interpretation, the pathfinder elements (Hg, Cu, Pb, Zn, Sb and As) often displayed a well-defined metal halo, up to eighteen (18) metres in apparent thickness downhole, within and peripheral to the multiple gold and silver-bearing intervals and potentially are indicative of a significant precious metal mineralizing system. We look forward to the compilation of the 2D and 3D spatial interpretation of the assay results from these and the remaining drill holes, the latter of which were focused on gold-bearing surface exposures along interpreted structural lineaments."

Table 1. Select assay intervals (>0.1 g/t Au) for the Phase 1 drilling program (MEZ001-MEZ-010)

"The Phase 1 RC program (see Figure 2 and Table 2) comprised 20 holes with a combined depth of 2,485 metres and utilized eight drill pad locations focused around a 400m x 600m area with elevated precious metal values to 3.41 g/t Au and 387 g/t Ag. Collars were defined by several northeast-trending veins, structural lineaments and oxide/sulphide transitions interpreted from geological mapping, precious metal assays, multi-element geochemistry, alteration assemblages and coincident 3D IP chargeability anomalies," said Mr. Davison. "New targets for Phase 2 drilling are developing from our ongoing geological, hyperspectral, LANDSAT and LiDAR compilation."

Figure 2. Drill collar location map for the El Mezquite property.

The first ten holes were drilled mainly on four collar locations (M1, M2, M3 and M5) targeting 3D IP chargeability anomalies and were logged primarily as green to grey-green andesite and mafic dykes exhibiting surface oxidation and transitional zones, weak propylitic alteration and at depth, abundant disseminated sulphides and/or magnetite. Andesite dykes contained elevated magnetite. Minor rhyolitic units may be feldspar-quartz intrusive dykes. Oxidation reached depths of 3 metres to 18.3 metres above transitional intervals of 3 metres to 24.3 metres. The sulphide zone andesites were intersected at overall downhole depths of 13 metres to 36.6 metres and continued through the holes. Pyrite was the dominant sulphide species with minor chalcopyrite, sphalerite and possible galena. Sulphides also occurred in quartz and quartz-carbonate veinlets with a stockwork-style distribution.

Table 2. Final drill hole data for the Phase 1 El Mezquite exploration program

The Company's first-ever drilling program at El Mezquite was completed in July with samples being submitted to ALS Global in Hermosillo in daily batches of 3-4 holes. The first seven (7) drill holes were completed on June 14^th. The remaining thirteen (13) holes were drilled with two RC rigs from Layne de Mexico and completed as scheduled on July 28^th.

Local drill management and oversight, packaging and shipping, logging, splitting and packaging of geochemical samples, quality control protocols and delivery to ALS Global were conducted under Servicios Geológicos IMEx ("IMEx") supervision at the El Mezquite property and at our option partner Colibri Resource's ("Colibri") office facilities in Hermosillo.

Sample splits (50%) were collected for geochemical analysis from 1.53 metre intervals throughout the length of each hole. Chip samples were split for logging from each interval, packaged in vials and organized in trays by drill hole. The remaining splits (50%) were stored at the project site and at Colibri's storage facility in Suaqui Grande.

Laboratory assay results were submitted between June 17^th and August 5^th. Data were received between July 15^th and August 24^th. Despite laboratory workloads which have impacted turnaround timelines, our samples were analysed in Vancouver and Lima, Peru to expedite completion.

Exploration Overview

The Company undertook an exploration program including environmental permitting for drilling, geological mapping of geologic structures and lineaments, ortho-mosaic photography, rock geochemical and hyperspectral analysis, data compilation and GIS modeling, and a LiDAR survey. Ground truthing of the Au-Ag system with geological mapping and rock sampling was completed in three campaigns between July 2020 and March 2021. All aspects of the exploration program are conducted with strict adherence to COVID-19 protocols for personal safety.

All current samples from the 2020-2021 field programs were submitted to ALS Global for gold, multi-element and hyperspectral analysis. Historical samples (>400) from the 2010-2019 programs also were submitted to provide complementary multi-element and hyperspectral data over the Property database. The assays, LiDAR survey data, and satellite hyperspectral interpretation results are being updated into the project ArcGIS database.

The environmental permit, required to drill the Property, was received from SEMARNAT (see Press Release April 20, 2021) and granted to the concession holder, Yaque Minerals S.A. de C.V. ("Yaque") by the Mexican Secretariat of Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT). The permit allows for fourteen (14) drill pads over the targets in the northern area of the concession. Individual holes achieved depths of 100-200 metres to intersect the target intervals.

Land surface agreements were signed with three ranchers to facilitate full access to the Phase 1 collar locations.

Project Background

El Mezquite, a drill-ready precious metal project located 10 km northwest of the town of Tepoca, and 170 km southeast of the capital city of Hermosillo, eastern Sonora, Mexico, is very well situated in terms of logistics for exploration and is located only twelve kilometres northwest of the Nicho deposit currently under mine development by Minera Alamos (see Figure 4).

The 180-hectare Property is easily accessible from Mexican Highway #16 via a southerly-trending unpaved road which traverses through the centre of the known gold mineralization. High voltage power lines are positioned along Highway #16.

The El Mezquite Project is located within the west-central portion of the Sierra Madre Occidental Volcanic Complex within the prominent northwest-trending "Sonora Gold Belt" of northern Mexico and parallel to the precious metals-rich Mojave-Sonora Megashear (Figure 5).

Geochemical Analysis, Quality Assurance and Quality Control

Drill chip sample splits were delivered from drill site, to an in-house storage facility in Hermosillo for logging and QA/QC by IMEx, and then to the ALS sample preparation facility in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico. ALS Global in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, is a facility certified as ISO 9001:2008 and accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2005 from the Standards Council of Canada. Local chain of custody was monitored and maintained by a professional senior geologist with IMEx.

The samples were crushed to 70% passing 2mm (PREP-31) and a split of up to 250 grams pulverized to 85% passing 75 micrometres (-200 mesh). The sample pulps and crushed splits were transferred internally to ALS Global's North Vancouver, Canada or Lima, Peru analytical facility for gold and multi-element analysis. Pulps (50gram split) are submitted for Au analysis by Fire Assay with Atomic Absorption finish (Au-AA24).

The retained pulps also were analysed by Four Acid Digestion followed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES) multi-element analyses (ME-ICP61m) with Hg by Aqua Regia and ICP-MS (Hg-MS42).

Over-limit Au and Ag samples are analyzed by Fire Assay with Gravimetric Finish Ore Grade (Au-GRA21 or Au-GRA22, Ag-GRA21). Overlimit base metals are analyzed by Four Acid Digestion followed by Ore Grade Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES) for Cu, Pb and Zn (Cu-OG62, Pb-OG62, Zn-OG62).

In-house quality control samples (blanks, standards, duplicates, preparation duplicates) are inserted into the sample set by IMEx. ALS Global conducts its own internal QA/QC program of blanks, standards and duplicates, and the results are provided with the Company sample certificates. The results of the ALS control samples were reviewed by IMEx and the Company's QP and evaluated for acceptable tolerances.

All sample and pulp rejects will be stored at ALS Global pending full review of the analytical data, and future selection of pulps for independent third-party check analyses, as requisite.

Regular readers will know that we love our dividends at Simply Wall St, which is why it's exciting to see Iluka Resources Limited (ASX:ILU) is about to trade ex-dividend in the next two days. The ex-dividend date is usually set to be one business day before the record date which is the cut-off date on which you must be present on the company's books as a shareholder in order to receive the dividend. The ex-dividend date is important because any transaction on a stock needs to have been settled before the record date in order to be eligible for a dividend. Accordingly, Iluka Resources investors that purchase the stock on or after the 7th of September will not receive the dividend, which will be paid on the 6th of October.

The company's upcoming dividend is AU$0.12 a share, following on from the last 12 months, when the company distributed a total of AU$0.24 per share to shareholders. Last year's total dividend payments show that Iluka Resources has a trailing yield of 2.4% on the current share price of A$10.03. We love seeing companies pay a dividend, but it's also important to be sure that laying the golden eggs isn't going to kill our golden goose! That's why we should always check whether the dividend payments appear sustainable, and if the company is growing.

View our latest analysis for Iluka Resources

Dividends are typically paid out of company income, so if a company pays out more than it earned, its dividend is usually at a higher risk of being cut. Fortunately Iluka Resources's payout ratio is modest, at just 38% of profit. A useful secondary check can be to evaluate whether Iluka Resources generated enough free cash flow to afford its dividend. The good news is it paid out just 4.4% of its free cash flow in the last year.

It's positive to see that Iluka Resources's dividend is covered by both profits and cash flow, since this is generally a sign that the dividend is sustainable, and a lower payout ratio usually suggests a greater margin of safety before the dividend gets cut.

Click here to see the company's payout ratio, plus analyst estimates of its future dividends.

Have Earnings And Dividends Been Growing?

Companies with consistently growing earnings per share generally make the best dividend stocks, as they usually find it easier to grow dividends per share. If earnings fall far enough, the company could be forced to cut its dividend. That's why it's comforting to see Iluka Resources's earnings have been skyrocketing, up 24% per annum for the past five years. Iluka Resources is paying out less than half its earnings and cash flow, while simultaneously growing earnings per share at a rapid clip. Companies with growing earnings and low payout ratios are often the best long-term dividend stocks, as the company can both grow its earnings and increase the percentage of earnings that it pays out, essentially multiplying the dividend.

Many investors will assess a company's dividend performance by evaluating how much the dividend payments have changed over time. Since the start of our data, 10 years ago, Iluka Resources has lifted its dividend by approximately 12% a year on average. It's great to see earnings per share growing rapidly over several years, and dividends per share growing right along with it.

To Sum It Up

From a dividend perspective, should investors buy or avoid Iluka Resources? Iluka Resources has grown its earnings per share while simultaneously reinvesting in the business. Unfortunately it's cut the dividend at least once in the past 10 years, but the conservative payout ratio makes the current dividend look sustainable. Overall we think this is an attractive combination and worthy of further research.

With that in mind, a critical part of thorough stock research is being aware of any risks that stock currently faces. For example, we've found 2 warning signs for Iluka Resources that we recommend you consider before investing in the business.

A common investment mistake is buying the first interesting stock you see. Here you can find a list of promising dividend stocks with a greater than 2% yield and an upcoming dividend.

A look at the shareholders of Jervois Global Limited (ASX:JRV) can tell us which group is most powerful. Large companies usually have institutions as shareholders, and we usually see insiders owning shares in smaller companies. We also tend to see lower insider ownership in companies that were previously publicly owned.

Jervois Global is not a large company by global standards. It has a market capitalization of AU$960m, which means it wouldn't have the attention of many institutional investors. In the chart below, we can see that institutions own shares in the company. Let's delve deeper into each type of owner, to discover more about Jervois Global.

See our latest analysis for Jervois Global

What Does The Institutional Ownership Tell Us About Jervois Global?

Many institutions measure their performance against an index that approximates the local market. So they usually pay more attention to companies that are included in major indices.

As you can see, institutional investors have a fair amount of stake in Jervois Global. This implies the analysts working for those institutions have looked at the stock and they like it. But just like anyone else, they could be wrong. If multiple institutions change their view on a stock at the same time, you could see the share price drop fast. It's therefore worth looking at Jervois Global's earnings history below. Of course, the future is what really matters.

We note that hedge funds don't have a meaningful investment in Jervois Global. Our data shows that AustralianSuper Pty. Ltd. is the largest shareholder with 20% of shares outstanding. In comparison, the second and third largest shareholders hold about 2.9% and 0.8% of the stock. Brian Kennedy, who is the third-largest shareholder, also happens to hold the title of Member of the Board of Directors.

Our studies suggest that the top 15 shareholders collectively control less than half of the company's shares, meaning that the company's shares are widely disseminated and there is no dominant shareholder.

While studying institutional ownership for a company can add value to your research, it is also a good practice to research analyst recommendations to get a deeper understand of a stock's expected performance. While there is some analyst coverage, the company is probably not widely covered. So it could gain more attention, down the track.

Insider Ownership Of Jervois Global

The definition of company insiders can be subjective and does vary between jurisdictions. Our data reflects individual insiders, capturing board members at the very least. Company management run the business, but the CEO will answer to the board, even if he or she is a member of it.

Most consider insider ownership a positive because it can indicate the board is well aligned with other shareholders. However, on some occasions too much power is concentrated within this group.

Our most recent data indicates that insiders own some shares in Jervois Global Limited. It has a market capitalization of just AU$960m, and insiders have AU$10m worth of shares, in their own names. Some would say this shows alignment of interests between shareholders and the board. But it might be worth checking if those insiders have been selling.

General Public Ownership

The general public holds a 43% stake in Jervois Global. While this group can't necessarily call the shots, it can certainly have a real influence on how the company is run.

Next Steps:

While it is well worth considering the different groups that own a company, there are other factors that are even more important. Consider for instance, the ever-present spectre of investment risk. We've identified 3 warning signs with Jervois Global (at least 2 which make us uncomfortable) , and understanding them should be part of your investment process.

But ultimately it is the future, not the past, that will determine how well the owners of this business will do. Therefore we think it advisable to take a look at this free report showing whether analysts are predicting a brighter future.

NB: Figures in this article are calculated using data from the last twelve months, which refer to the 12-month period ending on the last date of the month the financial statement is dated. This may not be consistent with full year annual report figures.

TORONTO, Sept. 01, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Montero Mining and Exploration Ltd. (TSX-V: MON) has given notice to terminate its option agreement over the Isabella East property which previously made up part of its Isabella gold-silver project in Chile. Assay results from 9 diamond drill holes (ISB20-11 to ISB20-19) testing vein targets on the Isabella East concessions were disappointing where no further work or property payments are justified. The Company is continuing to explore its remaining 85% and 100% owned Isabella exploration concessions which are only subject to yearly maintenance payments.

The Isabella district is host to an extensive system of mineralized quartz veins located at the granite sediment contact. The quartz veins at surface are often associated with elevated gold and silver values which also occur within sericite and pyrite altered leucogranite. The Company is currently carrying out additional mapping and sampling within the volcanic package on the eastern portion of its concessions. The Company has elected to abandon drill testing of the sedimentary target. The Company will provide updates on the next phase of exploration as they become available.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 31, 2021 / Strategic Metals Ltd. (TSXV:SMD) ("Strategic" or the "Company") announces that it owns 40% of the outstanding shares of Broden Mining Ltd. ("Broden"), a private company that is working with Ross River Dena Council ("RRDC") to complete the acquisition of a large package of land ("Vangorda Lands") in the Faro mining district, southern Yukon (Figure 1). The Vangorda Lands host several deposits containing zinc, lead, silver and other valuable metals, and there is excellent potential for additional discoveries (see joint news release with the Government of Canada, Ross River Dena Council and private entity Broden Mining dated August 30, 2021).

"Strategic and its partners have been working on this acquisition for several years and we consider it to be one of, if not the most important milestones in the history of the Company," states Doug Eaton, CEO of Strategic. "The deposits on the Vangorda Lands are some of the largest and richest zinc-lead-silver prospects in Canada and they benefit from excellent infrastructure. We anticipate working closely with our partners to bring this important mining district back into production."

There are five known mineral deposits on the Vangorda Lands and adjacent Silver Range Project, plus several less-explored prospects. The largest deposits are Grum, Grizzly and Keg. The known deposits collectively contain more than 5.38 billion pounds of zinc, 3.54 billion pounds of lead, 111 million ounces of silver and 870,000 ounces of gold, in all resource categories (see attached table for details). The reader is cautioned that the resource estimates are historical in nature.

Broden and RRDC have formed Tze Zul Development Corporation as the vehicle to explore the Vangorda Lands and, if warranted, develop the deposits. The parties have an agreement in principal with Canada and Yukon concerning the acquisition of mineral rights within the Vangorda Plateau portion of the Faro Mine reclamation area and claims that are under receivership, to the southeast of the Vangorda Plateau. There is also an agreement with Silver Range Resources Ltd. ("Silver Range") concerning acquisition of a 100% interest in a large claim block that lies north of the Vangorda Lands. Tze Zul will not be acquiring any rights or obligations concerning the remainder of the Faro Mine reclamation area, which covers the former Faro Mine, the old mill complex and the tailings storage facility. Figure 2 shows the location of the various components of the land package, along with the location of former mines and mineral deposits.

Strategic's interest in Broden is increased indirectly by its 18.1% shareholding in Silver Range, which owns 10% of Broden and retains a net smelter return interest in mineral production from its mineral claims in the area (see Silver Range Project on Figure 2).

Technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Matthew R. Dumala, P.Eng., a geological engineer with Archer, Cathro & Associates (1981) Limited and a qualified person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101.

About Strategic Metals Ltd.

Strategic is a project generator with 11 royalty interests, 8 projects under option to others, and a portfolio of more than 100 wholly owned projects that are the product of over 50 years of focussed exploration and research by a team with a track record of major discoveries. Projects available for option, joint venture or sale include drill-confirmed prospects and drill-ready targets with high-grade surface showings and/or geochemical anomalies and geophysical features that resemble those at nearby deposits.

Strategic has a current cash position of over $8 million and large shareholdings in a number of active mineral exploration companies including 38.5% of GGL Resources Corp., 33.5% of Rockhaven Resources Ltd., 19.6% of Honey Badger Silver Inc., 19.2% of Precipitate Gold Corp. and 18.1% of Silver Range Resources Ltd. All of these companies are well funded and are engaged in promising exploration projects. Strategic also owns 21.9% of Terra CO2 Technologies Holdings Inc., a private Delaware corporation which recently completed a US$9.2 million financing to advance its environmentally-friendly, cost-effective alternative to Portland cement.

FOCUSED ON EXPLORING ATLANTIC CANADA

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 31, 2021 / GREAT ATLANTIC RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV.GR) (the "Company" or "Great Atlantic") is pleased to announce it has received a permit from the Newfoundland and Labrador government for diamond drilling at its Golden Promise Gold Property specifically at the Otter Brook gold showing. The permit is for a maximum of 12 drill holes at the Otter Brook gold showing which is located within the east region of the property. The Company is planning to mobilize a diamond drill to this area this month. The Golden Promise Property is located within the central Newfoundland gold belt.

Great Atlantic confirmed gold mineralization at the Otter Brook gold showing with rock samples returning up to 5.75 grams / tonne (g/t) gold.

Eight of 11 rock samples (float, subcrop and outcrop) collected by the Company at the Otter Brook gold showing during 2020 returned gold values in the 0.719 – 5.758 g/t range. An outcrop grab sample returned the highest value of 5.758 g/t gold. The 2020 program was managed by a Qualified Person. The rock samples were assayed for gold by Eastern Analytical Ltd. by Fire Assay – AA. Eastern Analytical Ltd. is independent of Great Atlantic.

Great Atlantic will be drilling under the Otter Brook gold showing and along its projected strike.

The Golden Promise Property is located within a region of recent significant gold discoveries. The property is located within the Exploits Subzone of the Newfoundland Dunnage Zone. Within the Exploits Subzone, the property lies along the north-northwestern fringe of the Victoria Lake Supergroup (VLSG), a volcano-sedimentary terrane. The northwestern margin of the Golden Promise Property occurs proximal to, and, in part, contiguous with a major (Appalachian-scale) collisional boundary, and suture zone, known as the RIL. The RIL forms the western boundary of the Exploits Subzone. Recent significant gold discoveries within the Exploits Subzone include those of Marathon Gold Corp. (TSX.MOZ) at the Valentine Gold Project, Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV.SIC) at the Moosehead Gold Project and New Found Gold Corp. (TSXV.NFG) at the Queensway Project. Readers are warned that mineralization at the Valentine Gold Project, Moosehead Gold Project, and Queensway Project is not necessarily indicative of mineralization on the Golden Promise Property.

David Martin, P.Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and VP Exploration for Great Atlantic, is responsible for the technical information contained in this News Release.

How far off is Lynas Rare Earths Limited (ASX:LYC) from its intrinsic value? Using the most recent financial data, we'll take a look at whether the stock is fairly priced by taking the expected future cash flows and discounting them to today's value. We will take advantage of the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model for this purpose. There's really not all that much to it, even though it might appear quite complex.

Remember though, that there are many ways to estimate a company's value, and a DCF is just one method. If you want to learn more about discounted cash flow, the rationale behind this calculation can be read in detail in the Simply Wall St analysis model.

Check out our latest analysis for Lynas Rare Earths

Is Lynas Rare Earths fairly valued?

We're using the 2-stage growth model, which simply means we take in account two stages of company's growth. In the initial period the company may have a higher growth rate and the second stage is usually assumed to have a stable growth rate. To begin with, we have to get estimates of the next ten years of cash flows. Where possible we use analyst estimates, but when these aren't available we extrapolate the previous free cash flow (FCF) from the last estimate or reported value. We assume companies with shrinking free cash flow will slow their rate of shrinkage, and that companies with growing free cash flow will see their growth rate slow, over this period. We do this to reflect that growth tends to slow more in the early years than it does in later years.

Generally we assume that a dollar today is more valuable than a dollar in the future, and so the sum of these future cash flows is then discounted to today's value:

10-year free cash flow (FCF) estimate

	2022	2023	2024	2025	2026	2027	2028	2029	2030	2031
Levered FCF (A$, Millions)	AU$86.5m	AU$273.3m	AU$515.5m	AU$475.0m	AU$452.7m	AU$440.4m	AU$434.6m	AU$433.1m	AU$434.5m	AU$438.1m
Growth Rate Estimate Source	Analyst x2	Analyst x3	Analyst x2	Analyst x1	Est @ -4.69%	Est @ -2.71%	Est @ -1.32%	Est @ -0.35%	Est @ 0.33%	Est @ 0.81%
Present Value (A$, Millions) Discounted @ 6.9%	AU$80.9	AU$239	AU$422	AU$364	AU$324	AU$295	AU$272	AU$254	AU$238	AU$224

("Est" = FCF growth rate estimated by Simply Wall St)
Present Value of 10-year Cash Flow (PVCF) = AU$2.7b

We now need to calculate the Terminal Value, which accounts for all the future cash flows after this ten year period. For a number of reasons a very conservative growth rate is used that cannot exceed that of a country's GDP growth. In this case we have used the 5-year average of the 10-year government bond yield (1.9%) to estimate future growth. In the same way as with the 10-year 'growth' period, we discount future cash flows to today's value, using a cost of equity of 6.9%.

Terminal Value (TV)= FCF₂₀₃₁ × (1 + g) ÷ (r – g) = AU$438m× (1 + 1.9%) ÷ (6.9%– 1.9%) = AU$8.9b

Present Value of Terminal Value (PVTV)= TV / (1 + r)¹⁰= AU$8.9b÷ ( 1 + 6.9%)¹⁰= AU$4.6b

The total value, or equity value, is then the sum of the present value of the future cash flows, which in this case is AU$7.3b. To get the intrinsic value per share, we divide this by the total number of shares outstanding. Compared to the current share price of AU$6.7, the company appears about fair value at a 18% discount to where the stock price trades currently. Remember though, that this is just an approximate valuation, and like any complex formula – garbage in, garbage out.

Important assumptions

Now the most important inputs to a discounted cash flow are the discount rate, and of course, the actual cash flows. You don't have to agree with these inputs, I recommend redoing the calculations yourself and playing with them. The DCF also does not consider the possible cyclicality of an industry, or a company's future capital requirements, so it does not give a full picture of a company's potential performance. Given that we are looking at Lynas Rare Earths as potential shareholders, the cost of equity is used as the discount rate, rather than the cost of capital (or weighted average cost of capital, WACC) which accounts for debt. In this calculation we've used 6.9%, which is based on a levered beta of 1.058. Beta is a measure of a stock's volatility, compared to the market as a whole. We get our beta from the industry average beta of globally comparable companies, with an imposed limit between 0.8 and 2.0, which is a reasonable range for a stable business.

Looking Ahead:

Although the valuation of a company is important, it shouldn't be the only metric you look at when researching a company. It's not possible to obtain a foolproof valuation with a DCF model. Preferably you'd apply different cases and assumptions and see how they would impact the company's valuation. For instance, if the terminal value growth rate is adjusted slightly, it can dramatically alter the overall result. For Lynas Rare Earths, we've put together three important aspects you should assess:

Risks: For instance, we've identified 1 warning sign for Lynas Rare Earths that you should be aware of.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 26, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Search Minerals Inc. (TSXV: SMY | OTCQB: SHCMF) (“Search” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the planned 7000m of the DEEP FOX Phase 3 drill program have been completed. DEEP FOX is located in our Port Hope Simpson – St. Lewis Critical Rare Earth Elements (CREE) District in SE Labrador. The drill program consisted of 38 drill holes. Currently, we have logged 29 drill holes and sent over 3500 samples for geochemical assay. Our geological team expect to have the remainder of the holes logged and samples, approximately another 2500, sent for assay shortly.

DEEP FOX DRILL PROGRAM UPDATE

The drill program commenced June 2, 2021.

Drilling program observations:
- We finished the drill program ahead of schedule;
- Tested beyond the outer limits of the current mine pit design;
- Visual mineralization observed in every drill hole.

Drilling program progress:
- Starting to receive assay results. We will not be reporting until all assay results have been received and interpreted.

Next Steps of our Exploration Program:
- We will delay our planned HQ geotechnical program until our resource engineers provide an updated mine pit design. We believe our planned HQ drill program will be expanded to include more drill holes and will commence after an updated mineral resource and mine pit design has been completed.
- We anticipate having all assay results and interpretation to initiate the updated resource estimation by October 31, 2021.
- We will commence our channel sampling program at SILVER FOX and FOX MEADOW. We anticipate our program will allow these prospects to be drill ready for 2022.
- Late September, we have scheduled our team to work on our recently staked and acquired properties in the RED WINE DISTRICT, located in Northern Labrador.
- The exploration programs are being funded from our April 2021 flow-through funding of $ 2,520,000.

Dr. Randy Miller, Vice-President, Exploration comments; “We have observed mineralization in all drill holes and await assay results to determine the grades. Drilling has expanded the zone of visual mineralization on the 150m and 200m levels to the NE and on the 50m level to the west. We are also currently digitizing all drilling and channel sampling data for Deep Fox, including drill logs, assays, and specific gravity and magnetic susceptibility measurements, to aid in the geological interpretation of the mineralization and associated rocks.”

Greg Andrews, President/CEO states; “Our immediate goal is to advance our Critical Rare Earth Element District to production. This will require (a) advancing our DEEP FOX project to a measured and indicated resource, (b) providing engineering and economic studies such as Preliminary Economic Assessments and Feasibility Studies and (c) developing and submitting an Environmental Assessment report to initiate the environmental and permitting process for DEEP FOX. Our goal is to have the updated Preliminary Economic Assessment report by January 2022. Also, we will continue our exploration work in the District to advance some of our other prospects to be drill ready for 2022.”

The DEEP FOX DEPOSIT occurs about 2 km northeast of St. Lewis, Labrador and 12 km east of the FOXTROT DEPOSIT.

Search is following the COVID protocols which are currently in place within the Province of Newfoundland & Labrador to ensure the safety of our employees and the communities where we work.

BEDFORD, NS/ ACCESSWIRE / August 26, 2021 / Silver Spruce Resources Inc. (TSXV:SSE)(FRA:S6Q1) ("Silver Spruce" or the "Company") is pleased to announce promising gold and multi-element assay results of its Phase 2 ground exploration program on the 1,130-hectare Jackie Au-Ag property ("Jackie" or the "Property"). The program was focused around a pristine exploration target with encouraging Au-Ag assays from our Phase 1 prospecting and rock sampling (see Figures 1, 2 and 3). The work was performed on a 100-hectare section of the Property with grid-controlled detailed geological mapping and rock sampling focused on a 25-hectare central block covering the core of the gold and silver discovery area with additional wider spaced grid mapping of the surrounding area.

"We are excited about the potential for Jackie given the positive results and an original discovery with our early exploration campaigns. The intense silicate and oxide alteration with high-grade precious metal values ranging up to 9.65 g/t Au and 515 g/t Ag during Phase 1, and up to 4.15 g/t Au and 100 g/t Ag in separate samples during Phase 2, verified and extended the target area anomaly," said Greg Davison, Silver Spruce VP Exploration. "Our Hermosillo-based geological team completed tightly-spaced 25-50 metre grid sampling and mapping which successfully increased the target to 200m x 400m. A distinct northwesterly trend of anomalous precious metal and typical heavy metal pathfinder elements runs parallel to several local and regional lineaments which provide new untested targets for follow-up sampling."

Figure 1. Jackie and Diamante 2 Concession Location Map. Access from Tepoca south on Highway #117 and local road to La Quema. Discovery area 3km north of La Quema is indicated by the white arrow.

Assay results for 10 Phase 2 samples and 3 Phase 1 samples sorted by Au content are presented in Table 1. A total of 310 rock samples were collected to date in two programs.

Figure 2. Ridge located 50 metres above the valley floor, showing intense oxidation and argillic alteration peripheral to and within large polymetallic anomaly as indicated in Figure 1.

The Company, with a six-person team (two senior geologists, two junior geologist and two field assistants) and all necessary logistical support undertook a Phase 2 exploration program, including rock sampling and geological mapping of known areas exhibiting significant alteration or mineralization (see Figures 2 and 3), collection of structural data and alteration zoning to assist with vectoring toward potential Phase 3 drilling targets. The investigation of several known hyperspectral alteration targets identified from satellite imagery was deferred due to rainy season access limitations. All aspects of the exploration program were conducted with strict adherence to COVID-19 protocols for personal safety.

Figure 4 illustrates the Phase 1 geochemistry, based on 75^th, 90^th, 95^th and 98^th percentiles using proportional symbols, for gold with the inset map for Au, Ag, Pb, Zn and Cd. Figure 5 illustrates the Phase 1 results for Au with an inset map for Phase 2 Au distribution. Figure 6 illustrates the Phase 1 and 2 results for Cu. The data clearly show a strong multi-element cluster effect (Au, Ag, Bi, Sb, Cd, Zn and Hg) and strong silicate alteration focused over the principal 200m x 400m target area extending for the pathfinder elements on a general northwesterly trend and open along strike.

The preliminary prospecting program identified a distinctive andesite ridge with intense oxidation, silicification and argillic alteration, and a notable paucity of vegetation located 35-50 metres vertical above the valley floor. Similar alteration, verified by preliminary aiSIRIS results of hyperspectral analysis, from the northern area of the ridge which was covered by thick vegetation, where exposed displayed intense replacement by zeolite, kaolinite, alunite, montmorillonite, opaline silica and muscovite and contained the bulk of the anomalous gold and silver values.

Geochemical analyses clearly identified a strong Au-Ag anomaly, commonly though not exclusively, associated with elevated Hg, Pb, Zn, Cd, As, Sb and Cu with spatial distribution and trends similar to the multi-element data recorded for the nearby El Mezquite property.

Planning for the Phase 3 exploration program is underway with a view to additional ground work in Q4 2021, including preparation of the environmental report required for a drilling permit and targeting for Q1 2022 reverse circulation drilling. Interpretation of the geological, geochemical, hyperspectral, and property-wide ASTER, LANDSAT 8 and LiDAR imagery is ongoing.

The additional geochemistry and geological maps and images from the field program will be provided on the Silver Spruce website (www.silverspruceresources.com) in due course.

Project Background

The Company recently signed a Definitive Agreement (Press release November 30, 2020) with Colibri Resource Corp. to acquire 50% interest in Jackie, an early-stage precious metal project located 175 km east of Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico. The large grassroots property is located in a very productive region only one to two kilometres south from our El Mezquite and Diamante properties and adjacent to the west of Minera Alamos' Santana project, and approximately six kilometres northwest of their Nicho deposit currently under development.

The Jackie Project is located within the western portion of the Sierra Madre Occidental Volcanic Complex within the prominent northwest-trending "Sonora Gold Belt" of northern Mexico and parallel to the precious metals-rich Mojave-Sonora Megashear.

Other nearby large operating mines include Alamos Gold's Los Mulatos gold mine and Agnico Eagle's La India gold mine located 50-60 km to the northeast, Agnico Eagle's Pinos Altos Mine, 95 km southeast and Argonaut's La Colorada Mine, 100 km to the west. Exploration is very active with adjacent and nearby properties reported to be held by Minera Alamos, Newmont, Garibaldi, Evrim, Kootenay Silver and Peñoles.

The 1,130-hectare Property is easily accessible from Hermosillo to the Tepoca area and heading south from Mexican Highway #16 or west from Highway #117, or from Ciudad Obregón travelling northeast on Hwy. #117 and west to the pueblo of La Quema with vehicles and then pack teams along dry river beds, dirt roads and trails. High voltage power lines are located on Highway #16.

Geochemical Analysis, Quality Assurance and Quality Control

Rock samples were delivered to the ALS sample preparation facility in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico. ALS Global in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, is a facility certified as ISO 9001:2008 and accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2005 from the Standards Council of Canada.

Pulps (50gram split) were submitted for Au analysis by Fire Assay with Atomic Absorption finish (Au-AA24) and Four Acid Digestion with Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES) multi-element analyses (ME-ICP61m).

Splits of crushed rejects were sent to ALS in Reno, NV for hyperspectral analysis (HYP-PKG) using the Terraspec 4 and aiSIRIS identification of the principal silicate, sulphate, carbonate and hydrous oxide species, namely the alteration minerals and their relative intensity.

In-house quality control samples (blanks, standards, duplicates, preparation duplicates) were inserted into the sample set. ALS Global conducts its own internal QA/QC program of blanks, standards and duplicates, and the results were provided with the Company sample certificates. The results of the ALS control samples were reviewed by the Company's QP and evaluated for acceptable tolerances. All sample and pulp rejects are stored at ALS Global pending full review of the analytical data, and future selection of pulps for independent third-party check analyses, as requisite.

All of the metal values disclosed herein by Silver Spruce are reported from grab and channel samples which may not be representative of the metal grades. There is no record of historical sampling from previous exploration efforts on the Property.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 26, 2021 / GREAT ATLANTIC RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV.GR) (the "Company" or "Great Atlantic") is pleased to announce it has completed the eighth drill hole (GP-21-156) of the 2021 diamond drilling program at its Golden Promise Gold Property, located in the central Newfoundland gold belt. The drill hole is part of the Company's Phase 2 drilling program at the Jaclyn Zone, being completed at the Jaclyn North Zone in an area of gold bearing quartz boulders. GP-21-156 intersected visible gold within a quartz veined interval.

Quartz Vein in GP-21-156 with Visible Gold

Drill Hole GP-21-156 is a definition hole, further testing the Jaclyn North Zone (JNZ) east of pre-Great Atlantic drilling. The hole was drilled within a zone of gold bearing quartz boulders. It was drilled slightly southeast at an approximate 50-degree dip to a length of 122 meters. The hole intersected a zone of faulting and quartz veining at 19.35 – 22.65 meters. The main quartz vein within this interval was intersected at 22.10 – 22.65 meters and contains visible gold and sulfide mineralization.

The Company's Phase 2 drilling program to date (late 2020 – 2021) has extended the extended the JNZ quartz vein system approximately 260 meters further east along strike with each of the six holes completed in this part of the zone intersecting quartz veins. Each of the three 2020 holes (GP-20-146 to GP-20-148) intersected gold bearing quartz veins while assays are pending for samples from the three 2021 holes in the zone (GP-21-154 to GP-21-156) (see News Releases on the Company's website).

The company located gold bearing quartz boulders during 2017-2020 in the area of current drilling at the JNZ, including four boulder samples exceeding 100 g/t gold. This northeast trending quartz boulder field is approximately 300 meters long.

Visible Gold in Quartz Vein Intersected in GG-21-156

The Phase 2 drilling will include up to 33 drill holes at the gold bearing Jaclyn Zone with holes completed and planned at the Jaclyn Main Zone (JMZ) and JNZ and total planned drilling of approximately 5,000 meters. The objective of drilling at the JMZ is to further define the zone and provide information for an updated resource estimate of the JMZ. The first five holes completed during 2021 were at the JMZ with visible gold interested in quartz veins in four holes (assays pending). The Company is continuing the drill hole numbering system from previous drilling programs. Most of the completed and planned holes at the JMZ are within the central to west region of the zone, testing above 200 meters vertical depth. Two holes are planned in the east part of the JMZ during Phase 2 to test the zone at 200-350 meters vertical depth. Planned holes at the JNZ are east of pre-Great Atlantic drilling.

Great Atlantic reported a National Instrument 43-101 compliant inferred resource estimate during late 2018 for the JMZ of 357,500 tonnes at 10.4 g/t gold (119,900 ounces of gold – uncapped).

The Company confirmed high-grade gold at the JMZ during initial 2019 drilling, including near surface intercepts (core length) of 113.07 grams / tonne (g/t) gold over 0.55 meters, 61.35 g/t gold over 2.04 meters and 15.8 g/t gold over 2.70 meters plus an interval of multiple gold bearing veins in GP-19-140 averaging 2.30 g/t gold over 25.25 meters.

David Martin, P.Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and VP Exploration for Great Atlantic, is responsible for the technical information contained in this News Release.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 25, 2021 / Commerce Resources Corp. (TSXV:CCE)(FSE:D7H0)(OTCQX:CMRZF) (the "Company" or "Commerce") is pleased to announce that it has completed its 2021 diamond drill program at the Ashram Rare Earth and Fluorspar Deposit, located in northern Quebec.

A total of 2,814 m of NQ size coring was completed over 12 drill holes at the Ashram Deposit, targeting further delineation of the mineralized body. The Company is happy to report that the drilling advanced faster than anticipated, allowing for additional meterage to be completed beyond that planned while remaining within budget. In addition, the Company benefited from sharing support costs such as drill rig mobilization and camp operation from the overlapping drill program of Saville Resources Inc. on the proximal Niobium Claim Group, where it holds an Option from the Company. Both programs were managed by Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd. of Edmonton, AB, with drilling operations being carried out by Logan Drilling Ltd. of Stewiacke, NS.

The Company's drill program largely focused on the central areas of the deposit, within the preliminary pit shell being considered for the ongoing Prefeasibility Study (PFS), and where the neodymium-praseodymium (NdPr) contents are highest. Depending on the location within the deposit, the NdPr distribution typical varies from 21-24+% with monazite being the dominant carrier of the rare earth elements (REEs). Drill hole depths ranged from 152 m to 302 m core length. Due to the depth of the pit shell being considered for an initial 25-year mine-life as part of the PFS, the drill holes were terminated at pre-determined depths and commonly ended in A-Zone, which is the most well-mineralized rock type in the deposit.

The drill core is currently being processed on site and is anticipated to be shipped to Activation Laboratories in Ancaster, ON, shortly for analysis with results to be released as received. In addition to the drill program, this fall the Company plans to carry-out hydrology studies on site in support of the PFS, as well as complete several Qualified Person site visits.

The Ashram Deposit ranks as one of the largest REE (and fluorspar) deposits globally, consisting of a single mineralized body outcropping at surface, and has a mineralized footprint approximately 600 m along strike, over 350 m across, and 600 m deep, remaining open in several directions. The deposit hosts a measured resource of 1.6 million tonnes (Mt) at 1.77% rare earth oxide (REO) and 3.8% F, an indicated resource of 27.7 Mt at 1.90% REO and 2.9% F, and an inferred resource of 219.8 Mt at 1.88% REO and 2.2% F, at a cut-off grade of 1.25% REO. Note, mineral resources are not mineral reserves as they do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part of the Mineral Resources will be converted into Mineral Reserves.

The Company notes that it continues carry-out its field programs while adhering to all federal, provincial, and regional restrictions in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company has successfully navigated the process to enter Nunavik and obtained authorization to complete its planned field activities. Mineral exploration has been recognized as an essential service in Canada and the Province of Quebec.

Lynas Corp. (LYSDY) could be a solid choice for investors given its recent upgrade to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). This upgrade primarily reflects an upward trend in earnings estimates, which is one of the most powerful forces impacting stock prices.

The sole determinant of the Zacks rating is a company's changing earnings picture. The Zacks Consensus Estimate — the consensus of EPS estimates from the sell-side analysts covering the stock — for the current and following years is tracked by the system.

Since a changing earnings picture is a powerful factor influencing near-term stock price movements, the Zacks rating system is very useful for individual investors. They may find it difficult to make decisions based on rating upgrades by Wall Street analysts, as these are mostly driven by subjective factors that are hard to see and measure in real time.

Therefore, the Zacks rating upgrade for Lynas Corp. basically reflects positivity about its earnings outlook that could translate into buying pressure and an increase in its stock price.

Most Powerful Force Impacting Stock Prices

The change in a company's future earnings potential, as reflected in earnings estimate revisions, and the near-term price movement of its stock are proven to be strongly correlated. That's partly because of the influence of institutional investors that use earnings and earnings estimates for calculating the fair value of a company's shares. An increase or decrease in earnings estimates in their valuation models simply results in higher or lower fair value for a stock, and institutional investors typically buy or sell it. Their bulk investment action then leads to price movement for the stock.

Fundamentally speaking, rising earnings estimates and the consequent rating upgrade for Lynas Corp. imply an improvement in the company's underlying business. Investors should show their appreciation for this improving business trend by pushing the stock higher.

Harnessing the Power of Earnings Estimate Revisions

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock movements, so it could be truly rewarding if such revisions are tracked for making an investment decision. Here is where the tried-and-tested Zacks Rank stock-rating system plays an important role, as it effectively harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions.

The Zacks Rank stock-rating system, which uses four factors related to earnings estimates to classify stocks into five groups, ranging from Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) to Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), has an impressive externally-audited track record, with Zacks Rank #1 stocks generating an average annual return of +25% since 1988. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here >>>>.

Earnings Estimate Revisions for Lynas Corp.

For the fiscal year ending June 2022, this company is expected to earn $0.35 per share, which is a change of 1850% from the year-ago reported number.

Analysts have been steadily raising their estimates for Lynas Corp. Over the past three months, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company has increased 25%.

Bottom Line

Unlike the overly optimistic Wall Street analysts whose rating systems tend to be weighted toward favorable recommendations, the Zacks rating system maintains an equal proportion of 'buy' and 'sell' ratings for its entire universe of more than 4000 stocks at any point in time. Irrespective of market conditions, only the top 5% of the Zacks-covered stocks get a 'Strong Buy' rating and the next 15% get a 'Buy' rating. So, the placement of a stock in the top 20% of the Zacks-covered stocks indicates its superior earnings estimate revision feature, making it a solid candidate for producing market-beating returns in the near term.

You can learn more about the Zacks Rank here >>>

The upgrade of Lynas Corp. to a Zacks Rank #2 positions it in the top 20% of the Zacks-covered stocks in terms of estimate revisions, implying that the stock might move higher in the near term.

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – August 23, 2021) – Playfair's (TSXV: PLY) (FSE: P1J1) (OTC Pink: PLYFF) core drilling program on its large (201 square kilometers) 100% owned RKV Copper Project in South Central Norway is expected to start in early September. Playfair has delineated seven drill targets in five areas, Drill Notifications have been made and necessary permits are approved.

Playfair, as a responsible mineral explorer, values protecting the natural environment it works in. Playfair uses new technologies and methods to reduce the impact of its exploration. Playfair's exploration to date has been in three phases.

The first phase of Playfair's exploration used non-invasive machine learning algorithms to reinterpret existing geochemical-geological-geophysical data sets and outline potential exploration target areas with similarities to known mineral occurrences.

The second phase of Playfair's exploration was minimally invasive. In the areas outlined as possibly favourable by the machine learning algorithms small pits were dug by hand, samples of soil were removed, and the pits refilled. There was no off-road driving. Subsequent chemical analysis outlined areas with a high content of copper or other elements of interest.

The third phase of Playfair's exploration measured the intensity of the earth's magnetic field in some of the areas where a high copper content was found in soils. Variations in the magnetic field provide important information about the underlying bedrock. The survey was non-intrusive and used an unmanned drone to carry the measuring equipment.

The seven drill targets were previously described: Storboren (November 07, 2019, and December 05, 2019, News Releases), Sæterfjellet, (January 06, 2021, News Release), Kletten North and Kletten South (January 28, 2021, News Release), Røstvangen Northeast and Røstvangen Southwest (February 17, 2021, News Release) and Rødalen (March 11, 2021, News Release).

The drill targets are MMI (Mobile Metal Ion) copper anomalies discovered by sampling target areas generated by Windfall Geotek (TSXV: WIN) (OTCQB: WINKF) using their proprietary Computer Aided Resources Detection System (CARDS).

All seven drill targets show compelling coherent MMI Cu anomalies with multiple MMI Cu values greater than 6,000 ppb. The highest value recorded was 53,300 ppb MMI Cu. A short MMI Report by SGS states that values greater than 6,000 ppb MMI Cu "are likely to be associated with weathering copper sulphides."

Playfair's fourth phase of exploration is planned to begin in September 2021. In keeping with Playfair's intent to minimise the impact of its exploration on the natural environment Playfair will use a lightweight drilling machine which can be disassembled and hand-carried to the drill sites. Playfair's man-portable drill has now arrived in Norway, cleared customs and has been transported to Tynset, approximately 25 km from Rødalen, the first drill target. With a population of 5,400, Tynset is the municipal centre of the Nord-Østerdalen region. Arctic Drilling As., a local Norwegian Company will carry out the drilling.

http://www.investmentpitch.com/video/1_aoqykejt/Great-Atlantic-begins-2021-exploration-program-at-its-Glenelg-Vanadium-Gold-property-in-southwestern-New-Brunswick

Through a review of historical information, the company has identified target areas for gold exploration within the property with historic rock samples from at least four areas reported to exceed 1 gram per tonne gold, including a historic 2013 grab sample from a sulphide vein from the southeast region of the property reportedly returning 14 grams per tonne gold.

The Glenelg property has seen little exploration and management cannot find any evidence of historical drilling within the property. The current exploration consists of focused prospecting and rock geochemical sampling.

Rock samples are being collected within the Bocabec Gabbro, the target being vanadium/titanium mineralization. Previous rock samples collected by the company and historic rock samples have confirmed vanadium and titanium mineralization within the Bocabec Gabbro.

A 2018 grab sample collected by the company from a magnetite rich layer in the Bocabec Gabbro Complex within the southeast region of the property returned 0.188% vanadium or 0.33% V2O5, 10.3% titanium oxide and 25.71% iron, when analyzed by XRF Fusion by ALS Canada. Another 2018 bedrock grab sample from the same region of the property was reported to return 0.234% vanadium or 0.42% V2O5, 12.2% titanium oxide and 28.8% iron. This sample was collected by one of the company's option partners for the property and was not verified by a Qualified Person.

Prospecting and rock geochemical sampling are also being conducted for gold mineralization in target areas within the central-west regions of the Glenelg Property. Three gold occurrences (+/- silver and copper) are reported within the central region of the property.

A historic outcrop grab sample from the early 1900s, from one occurrence, reported as quartz-sulfide breccia within altered gabbro, reportedly returned 1.33 grams per tonne gold. Historic float samples reported during the same period in the central-west regions of the property were reported to return 2.7 and 2.2 grams per tonne gold. This mineralization has not been verified by a Qualified Person.

The Glenelg Property is located immediately south of the Clarence Stream Gold Project of Galway Metals Inc., with a portion of the northern boundary bordering Galway's Clarence Stream Gold Project. Galway reported a NI 43-101 resource estimate for the project during 2017, reporting total Measured plus Indicated resources of 6,178,000 tonnes at 1.96 gpt gold (390,000 ounces of gold) and total Inferred resources of 3,409,000 tonnes at 2.53 gpt gold (277,000 ounces of gold).

Management cautions that mineralization at the Clarence Stream Gold Project and at Great Atlantic's Mascarene Property are not necessarily indicative of mineralization within the Glenelg Vanadium Property.

Great Atlantic, with a number of properties in the Atlantic provinces, is utilizing a Project Generation model, with a special focus on critical elements which are prominent in Atlantic Canada, such as Antimony, Tungsten and Gold.

Mercator Property

QUÉBEC CITY, Aug. 20, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Stelmine Canada (STH-TSXV) (“Stelmine” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that an ongoing field program ahead of first-ever drilling at its 100%-owned Mercator Project in northern Quebec supports the preliminary analysis from a recently completed geophysics survey of a potentially large-scale orogenic gold system (refer to August 3, 2021 news release).

New Mercator Highlights:

Additional sampling has extended the length of the Main Zone to 2.5 km from 1.9 km. A shallow dipping mineralized slab along a ridge within this area now extends 500 meters in width, from the previously reported 400 meters, and includes pyrrhotite, pyrite, arsenopyrite and chalcopyrite (assays pending);
Geologists are honing in on a potentially significant new discovery area starting 16 km southwest of the Main Zone with similarities to the northeast-southwest trending lithological assemblage observed in the Main Zone. Overburden stripping and channel sampling of this area to the southwest is now planned after grab samples collected over three km showed strong sulphide enrichment;
Extensive surface sampling this summer has been carried out over a 21-km distance with 243 samples collected to date including more than half outside the Main Zone (assays pending, see attached map), though multiple areas with favorable structure still need to be investigated as part of the follow-up to the highly encouraging geophysical survey;
Notably, arsenopyrite is increasingly being identified in surface samples. This pathfinder mineral is often associated with gold in this type of geological environment where meta-sediments and amphibolites have been mapped along abundant faulted and folded iron formations.

Stelmine initially staked Mercator in 2017. Earlier this year, based on data from last summer’s program, Stelmine expanded its Mercator land package five-fold from 65 km² to 389 km²through additional staking. Mercator is approximately 100 km northwest of the Company’s Courcy Project where drilling will soon follow up on the last drill hole, completed by SOQUEM in 2006, that returned a 42-meter core interval grading 4.2 g/t Au including 1.5 m of 105 g/t Au.

Ms. Isabelle Proulx, Stelmine CEO, commented: “Knowing the discovery drill hole at Courcy, our continued work in this region keeps reinforcing our belief that we have found an entirely new gold district in northern Quebec with geological similarities to Newmont’s Eleonore mine to the west at James Bay. The geophysical signatures of Mercator and the continuity that we are beginning to see with respect to surface mineralization are highly encouraging at this stage of exploration.

“Work continues as we prepare for drilling, and we eagerly anticipate additional updates,” Ms. Proulx concluded.

TORONTO, Aug. 19, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — JOURDAN RESOURCES INC. (“Jourdan” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that it has received permission from the Ministère des Forêts, de la Faune et des Parcs (Quebec, Permit #3028358), Quebec’s mining authority, to commence a 2000m diamond drilling program on its Vallée property located in Val d’Or, Quebec. Drilling activities are permitted to commence on September 1, 2021. The diamond drilling program is intended to follow up on the results of a bulk sample collected in 2018 and the fence line drilled from 2011 along the western side of the Company’s Vallee property, which borders North American Lithium’s mine. This new campaign aims at completing two more fence lines across the lithium-bearing pegmatite swarm which has been mined in the immediate vicinity to the west. 10 holes of approximately 200m depth are scheduled to be drilled aiming at the pegmatites identified by the results of a bulk sample collected on the Vallée property in 2018. The bulk sample results revealed high Li₂O intersections which have encouraged the Company to continue exploration by drilling on the property.

Highlights of diamond drilling campaign

The permit was applied for on July 23, 2021 and received in early August 2021. Drilling is intended to start on September 1, 2021.
The Company believes that it can be inferred that the pegmatite swarm mined at the North American Lithium mine extends into the western part of the Vallée property.
The Company anticipates that the drilling campaign will add 2000m of drill core on the Vallée project with 10 drill holes of 200m each to find new pegmatite occurrences.

Rene Bharti, CEO of Jourdan, stated, “We believe this drill program will allow the Company to move forward with its goal to become Quebec’s next near-term lithium producer.”

Jourdan’s Chairman, Dr. Andreas Rompel, stated, “We are excited to commence a new phase of exploration on our Vallée property. After having received the vastly encouraging results from the bulk sample, this is only the natural progression to explore and develop the extent of lithium mineralisation along the pegmatite swarm.”

Southwest New Brunswick

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 19, 2021 / GREAT ATLANTIC RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV:GR) (the "Company" or "Great Atlantic") is pleased to announce it has begun the 2021 exploration program at its Glenelg Vanadium – Gold Property, located in southwest New Brunswick. The Glenelg Property is located immediately south of the Clarence Stream Gold Project of Galway Metals Inc. (GWM).

The Glenelg Property hosts vanadium mineralization, with historic rock samples reported up to 0.42% V2O5. Through a review of historical information, the Company has identified target areas for gold exploration within the property with historic rock samples from at least four areas reported to exceed 1 g/t gold (including a sample reported to return 14 g/t gold).

The current exploration consists of focused prospecting and rock geochemical sampling. Rock samples are being collected within the Bocabec Gabbro, the target being vanadium – titanium mineralization. Previous Company rock samples and historic rock samples have confirmed vanadium and titanium mineralization within the Bocabec Gabbro.

A 2018 grab sample collected by the Company from a magnetite rich layer in the Bocabec Gabbro Complex returned 0.188% vanadium (0.33% V2O5), 10.3% TiO2 and 25.71% iron. This sample was collected within the southeast region of the property. It was collected by a qualified person and was analyzed by ALS Canada Ltd. by XRF Fusion. Another 2018 bedrock grab sample from the same southeast region of the property was reported to return 0.234% vanadium (0.42% V2O5), 12.2%TiO and 28.8% iron. This sample was collected by one of the Company's option partners for the property and was not verified by a Qualified Person.

Layered Bocabec Gabbro Complex

Prospecting and rock geochemical sampling are also being conducted in target areas for gold mineralization within the central-west regions of the Glenelg Property. Three gold occurrences (+/- silver and copper) are reported within the central region of the property. A historic (early 1900s) outcrop grab sample from one occurrence, reported as quartz-sulfide breccia within altered gabbro, was reported to return 1.33 grams / tonne (g/t) gold. Historic float samples reported during the same period in the central-west regions of the property were reported to return 2.7 and 2.2 g/t gold. A historic 2013 grab sample from a sulfide vein from the southeast region of the property was reported to return 14 g/t gold. This mineralization has not been verified by a Qualified Person.

A portion of the northern boundary of the Glenelg Property borders the Clarence Stream Gold Project of Galway Metals Inc. Galway reported a NI 43-101 resource estimate for the project during 2017, reporting total Measured plus Indicated resources of 6,178,000 tonnes at 1.96 g/t gold (390,000 ounces of gold) and total Inferred resources of 3,409,000 tonnes at 2.53 g/t gold (277,000 ounces of gold).

The Glenelg Vanadium Property is located within southwest New Brunswick approximately 17 kilometers east of the town of St. Stephen and approximately 15 kilometers northwest of the Company's Mascarene Property which hosts multiple mineral occurrences with cobalt, copper, nickel, zinc, lead, gold and / or silver.
