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.

OTTAWA, ON, Aug. 31, 2021 /CNW/ – Northern Shield Resources Inc. ("Northern Shield" or the "Company") (TSXV: NRN) is pleased to provide an update on exploration and interpretation from the Root & Cellar Gold-Silver-Copper Project ("Root & Cellar" or the "Project") located on the Burin Peninsula in southeastern Newfoundland. The Company can earn a 100% interest in the Property, which is being explored for epithermal gold-silver mineralization and porphyry copper deposits.

New Gold and Copper Occurrences
Thirty-six additional grab sample assay results have been received from prospecting and ground truthing of some of the near surface IP anomalies in the Conquest Zone as announced on July 27, 2021, including assays of 3.2 and 1.0 g/t Au. Eleven other samples from the batch assayed between 0.1 and 1.0 g/t Au. These results continue to validate the prospectivity of the IP anomalies.

Furthermore, the field crew currently on-site have uncovered two new copper occurrences also within the Conquest Zone based on visual observations. The first occurrence consists of coarse blebs of chalcopyrite (copper sulphide) along with a finely disseminated silvery-grey copper mineral (possibly tetrahedrite) hosted in a silica-pyrite-potassium altered matrix (Figure 1). This occurrence coincides with the main Conquest IP trend (Figure 2) and is located approximately 100 metres east of the gold discovery recently announced (see Company press release dated July 27, 2021). The second occurrence was found near the southern Conquest IP trend (Figure 2) and consists of malachite and chalcocite (copper sulphide) hosted in vuggy silica and associated with epidote and potassic alteration.

IP Anomaly Continues to Depth
These new discoveries continue to suggest the possibility of a transitional epithermal gold to copper porphyry system occurring at Root & Cellar. Line 5300 was surveyed with two different configurations during the previously completed IP survey, with the second configuration seeing much deeper. It shows the main Conquest IP trend widening and extending to considerable depth, beyond 300 metres (Figure 3). This IP trend will be the principal target to be tested at depth, for a drilling program being planned and permitted for this fall.

"We continue to reap the benefits of being an early mover into the under-explored Burin Peninsula as more and more gold and copper occurrences are uncovered in the Conquest Zone through methodical exploration and ground truthing the near-surface expressions of the IP anomalies. We look forward to the drilling program to test these near surface IP targets and where the IP anomalies blowout below the volcanic sequence."

Ian Bliss – President & CEO

Geology-IP Interpretation
The geology of the Root & Cellar Property dominantly consists of a bimodal sequence of volcanic rocks with vent breccias and related pyroclastic rocks including ignimbrites. This sequence overlies subvolcanic basement rocks. Only a small number of the IP anomalies identified from the survey penetrate up through the volcanic sequence and come to surface. Those that do come to surface appear to be offshoots of much larger IP anomalies at depth. Importantly, the broadening of the IP anomalies occurs at a stratigraphic level interpreted to be the volcanic/basement contact.

Planned Drilling Program
A 2,500 metre drilling program is planned for the fall and a drill permit application is underway. The drilling will focus on the Conquest Zone but the Windfall Zone, along with IP targets to the south-east of Windfall, will also be tested.

This press release has been reviewed by Christine Vaillancourt, P. Geo. and the Company's Chief Geologist. Samples from the program were analyzed by Eastern Analytical Ltd. of Springdale, Newfoundland for Au by Fire Assay with ICP-AES finish. All standards, blanks and duplicates meet targeted values.

Northern Shield Resources Inc. is a Canadian-based company with experience in many geological terranes and focused on generating high-quality exploration programs. It is known as a leader in executing grass roots exploration programs using a model driven approach. Seabourne Resources Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Northern Shield focussing on epithermal gold and related deposits in Atlantic Canada.

In this article, we discuss the 10 new Reddit WallStreetBets stocks on the rise. If you want to skip our detailed analysis of these stocks, go directly to the 5 New Reddit WallStreetBets Stocks On the Rise.

WallStreetBets, the Reddit forum with more than 10.8 million members, has become one of the hottest places in the world of finance over the past few months. This is evident from the meteoric rise in memberships – the group had only around 1.6 million members in December 2020. On January 28, the group gained a record 1.5 million members in a single night at the height of the short squeeze saga involving video game retailer GameStop. The forum is used by retail investors for market-related discussions.

Some of the most popular stocks on WallStreetBets presently include Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL), NIO Inc. (NYSE: NIO), Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN), and Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG), among others. Since retail investors do not often see eye to eye with big finance on key investment choices, the group has become a hotbed of activity around meme stocks – firms with little to offer in terms of basic fundamentals but popular because of internet interest.

On August 30, the founder of the WallStreetBets group, Jaime Rogozinski, gave an interview to news platform Kitco News and revealed that he was confident that a new type of exchange-traded product that would let investors with a stake have a say in the asset selection process would soon be launched. Rogozinski even went as far as to call the product “the next meme stock” and said the product would follow a decentralized autonomous organization model. Rogozinski founded WallStreetBets in 2012.

The influx of retail investors on the market has fundamentally altered the dynamics of Wall Street. The entire hedge fund industry is feeling the reverberations of the changing financial landscape. Its reputation has been tarnished in the last decade, during which its hedged returns couldn’t keep up with the unhedged returns of the market indices. On the other hand, Insider Monkey’s research was able to identify in advance a select group of hedge fund holdings that outperformed the S&P 500 ETFs by more than 124 percentage points since March 2017. Between March 2017 and July 2021 our monthly newsletter’s stock picks returned 186.1%, vs. 100.1% for the SPY. Our stock picks outperformed the market by more than 115 percentage points (see the details here). That’s why we believe hedge fund sentiment is an extremely useful indicator that investors should pay attention to.

New Reddit WallStreetBets Stocks On the Rise

10. Lithium Americas Corp. (NYSE: LAC)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 9

Percentage Gain in Past Five Days: 10.41%

Lithium Americas Corp. (NYSE: LAC) is placed tenth on our list of 10 new Reddit WallStreetBets stocks on the rise. The firm operates as a resource company and is headquartered in Canada.

On August 30, investment advisory Cowen maintained an Outperform rating on Lithium Americas Corp. (NYSE: LAC) stock and raised the price target to $19 from $17, noting that constructive policy and near-term supply limits were driving lithium pricing higher.

Out of the hedge funds being tracked by Insider Monkey, New York-based investment firm Axel Capital Management is a leading shareholder in Lithium Americas Corp. (NYSE: LAC) with 408,130 shares worth more than $6 million.

Just like Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL), NIO Inc. (NYSE: NIO), Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN), and Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG), Lithium Americas Corp. (NYSE: LAC) is one of the new Reddit WallStreetBets stocks on the rise.

In its Q1 2021 investor letter, Massif Capital, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and Lithium Americas Corp. (NYSE: LAC) was one of them. Here is what the fund said:

“Lithium Americas: The volatility noted above in LAC has resulted in solid returns via our options trades around our core equity position. At the current time, we are short calls on LAC, as we have done multiple times throughout the position’s life, expiring on May 21, 2021, at a $17.5 and $22.5 strike price. The volume of contracts sold at each strike corresponds to the size of the equity position we want should the calls expire in the money, and the underlying equity gets called away from us. The thought process behind this trade construction is that if we know the size of the position we want at a particular price point, there is no reason not to accumulate additional returns by pre-selling the stock we would have sold anyway.

High levels of volatility positively impact the price of options, increasing the premium we can earn from selling covered calls. To date, we have sold covered calls on LAC that have expired worthless four times, yielding a roughly 7% return on the equity position’s current value or 71bps for the portfolio overall. The outstanding covered calls appear to be trending towards a similar worthless expiration. If they do, the covered call trades on LAC will result in us owning the shares with committed capital of -$0.28 per share.

Although we believe in the fullness of time LAC warrants a $30+ valuation, the prices achieved in early January of this year were not justified by the underlying fundamentals. Some will argue we should have sold down our position. We had already established our option positions and believe LAC is an emerging major in the lithium mining industry. Thus, we decided to maintain the position unchanged. Although still relatively high, the current $15 per share valuation is not crazy compared to where we think the firm should be trading based on fundamentals, so we are no longer overly concerned with the position as is.

LAC management also took advantage of the volatility issuing stock on January 22 for $22 a share. The ~$400 million in proceeds will be used to develop Thacker Pass, the US-based clay lithium deposit, which will likely be the largest producing Lithium mine in America when turned on. In our opinion, the stock issuance could not have come at a better time. LAC management has advanced the project through various development stages (de-risking), but with the share issuance, they have significantly reduced the need to bring in an outside partner to develop the asset as the first phase of the project is expected to cost roughly $581 million. After-tax and at an 8% discount rate, the Thacker Pass project’s present value is approximately $2.6 billion (the firm’s current market capitalization is $1.5 billion). Although the share issuance was dilutive, increasing the total shares by 17%, we believe it will, in the long run, prove a forward-looking, value-additive decision by management.

The lithium market remains an area of interest and focus for us. This reflects our belief that the most exciting investment opportunities to capture secular trends in EV’s and batteries are found upstream in the mining industry. It is also a reflection that there is a greater diversity of lithium investment opportunities relative to other battery metals.”

9. Penn National Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ: PENN)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 40

Percentage Gain in Past Five Days: 11.43%

Penn National Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ: PENN) is ranked ninth on our list of 10 new Reddit WallStreetBets stocks on the rise. The firm owns and manages gaming and racing properties. It is headquartered in Pennsylvania.

On August 5, investment advisory Stifel reiterated a Buy rating on Penn National Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ: PENN) stock with a price target of $108. Steven Wieczynski, an analyst at the firm, issued the ratings update.

At the end of the second quarter of 2021, 40 hedge funds in the database of Insider Monkey held stakes worth 1 billion in Penn National Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ: PENN), down from 42 in the previous quarter worth $907 million.

Along with Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL), NIO Inc. (NYSE: NIO), Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN), and Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG), Penn National Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ: PENN) is one of the new Reddit WallStreetBets stocks on the rise.

In its Q1 2021 investor letter, Baron Funds, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and Penn National Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ: PENN) was one of them. Here is what the fund said:

“Shares of regional casino operation Penn National Gaming, Inc. increased in the quarter on strong share gains in the online sports betting and gaming markets in Michigan and the opening of the large Illinois online sports betting market. Strong sequential growth in revenue and sustained margin improvement in its brick and mortar operations also helped boost the share price. We think these positive developments will lead to improvements in the company’s balance sheet and its EBITDA to free cash flow conversion.”

8. The Beauty Health Company (NASDAQ: SKIN)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 33

Percentage Gain in Past Five Days: 12.85%

The Beauty Health Company (NASDAQ: SKIN) is a California-based firm that markets aesthetic technologies and products. It is placed eighth on our list of 10 new Reddit WallStreetBets stocks on the rise.

If you purchased Piedmont securities during the Class Period, would like to discuss Berger Montague's investigation, or have questions concerning your rights or interests, please contact attorneys Andrew Abramowitz at aabramowitz@bm.net or (215) 875-3015, or Michael Dell'Angelo at mdellangelo@bm.net or (215) 875-3080, or fill out the form on www.bergermontague.com/piedmont.

Whistleblowers: Anyone with non-public information regarding Piedmont is encouraged to confidentially assist Berger Montague's investigation or take advantage of the SEC Whistleblower program. Under this program, whistleblowers who provide original information may receive rewards totaling up to thirty percent (30%) of recoveries obtained by the SEC. For more information, contact us.

According to a recently filed lawsuit, Piedmont misrepresented and concealed material information concerning Piedmont's progress toward obtaining necessary permits and zoning variances to build a large lithium mine in Gaston County, North Carolina. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose that Piedmont: (1) had not secured all proper and necessary permits, (2) did not inform relevant government authorities of its actual plans, (3) did not file proper applications with state and local authorities, and (4) did not have "strong local government support."

On July 20, 2021, investors began to learn the truth when Reuters published a report indicating that Piedmont had not even applied for the necessary mining permit or zoning variances, and that five of the seven members of the Gaston County's board of commissioners were likely to block or delay the project because, among other things, Piedmont had not informed them of the environmental impact of the project. On this news, Piedmont shares fell $12.56 per share over the trading day, or nearly 20%, injuring investors.

Berger Montague, with offices in Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Washington, D.C., and San Diego, has been a pioneer in securities class action litigation since its founding in 1970. Berger Montague has represented individual and institutional investors for over five decades and serves as lead counsel in courts throughout the United States.

North American Lithium's Spodumene Concentrator (Photo: Business Wire)

Piedmont and Sayona are now advancing technical studies for the future restart of NAL’s spodumene concentrate operations, with a Scoping Study expected in H2 2021. Additionally, studies have commenced for the manufacturing of lithium chemicals in the Province of Québec, which could position the province to become an important lithium hydroxide production center given its abundant mineral resources, low-cost, sustainable hydro-electric power, proximity to major U.S. and European electric vehicle markets, and pro-electrification stance of provincial leaders.

Keith D. Phillips, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented: "We are very pleased to have partnered with Sayona in the consolidation of the spodumene resources in the Abitibi region of Québec, with Sayona Québec now comprising a large Canadian lithium resource base. Importantly, North American Lithium is a past-producing business with $400mm of investment over the past decade. NAL’s concentrate operations are amenable to a relatively rapid restart and we will work with Sayona to develop suitable plans in that regard. We are also evaluating a variety of options for production of lithium hydroxide in Québec and will update the market further as our plans crystallize. Piedmont intends to become North America’s leading lithium hydroxide producer and our Québec investments are an ideal complement to our flagship Carolina Lithium Project in Gaston County, North Carolina."

MONTREAL, Aug. 30, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The management of Sirios Resources Inc. (TSXV: SOI) is pleased to announce that a total of 4,575 metres of diamond drilling has been completed to date on the Cheechoo gold property in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec. Visible gold was observed in thirty-six instances in thirteen of the nineteen definition diamond drill holes. As previously announced, the presence of visible gold, as well as the lithologies intersected, are in accordance with the expectations of Sirios' geologists and the modeling of the gold deposit

The objective of the definition drilling program is to better define the Cheechoo deposit and initiate an updated resource estimate (as early as 2022) that will allow for a significant amount of inferred resources to be converted to indicated resources. The improved gold resource classification of the project will increase the value of the Cheechoo deposit and help advance the project to a more advanced stage with the completion of a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).

About the Cheechoo Property

The Cheechoo gold property, wholly-owned by Sirios, is located in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec, less than 9 km from Newmont’s Eleonore gold mine. The latest resource estimate for the Cheechoo project (October 2020) estimated an inferred resource of 2.0 million ounces of gold contained in 93.0 million tonnes of rock at an average grade of 0.65 g/t Au, with significant potential to increase this resource (BBA, P-L. Richard, P. Geo.; J. Torrealba, P. Eng.; D. Evangelista, P. Eng., NI 43-101 Technical Report, Mineral Resource Estimate Update for The Cheechoo Project, 31/10/2020).

The scientific and technical content of this press release has been reviewed and approved by Dominique Doucet, P.Eng. president and CEO of Sirios Resources Inc. and Jordi Turcotte, P.Geo. senior geologist, both qualified persons under National Instrument 43-101.

About Sirios

A pioneer in the discovery of significant gold deposits in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec, Canada, Sirios Resources Inc. is focusing primarily on its Cheechoo gold discovery, while actively exploring the gold potential of its other properties.

MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, Aug. 30, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Canada Carbon Inc. (“the Company” or “Canada Carbon” or “CCB”) (TSX-V:CCB), (FF:U7N1), is pleased to provide an update on its Miller Project. On July 21, 2021 the La Commission de Protection du territoire Agricole du Quebec (“CPTAQ”) rendered a Notice of Change in Orientation in which it indicated it was prepared to authorize, for a period of two years, the exploratory work required for Canada Carbon to provide additional information to its existing application file. CPTAQ provided 30 days for comments on its change of orientation and will provide a final decision in due course.

Canada Carbon had filed a comprehensive file with the CPTAQ based on the information it understood the CPTAQ required. In addition to requesting the area needed for the proposed pits and infrastructure, Canada Carbon built in some flexibility to accommodate the potential requirements Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources or the Department of Environment and Fight against Climate Change could have from their respective reviews which cannot commence until the CPTAQ approval is obtained.

The CPTAQ determined that it wanted more specific information regarding the exact area required for the project so that an assessment could be made on the impact on water, dust and maples for that area.

Although COVID-19 has imposed certain constraints on the availability of drillers and certain analytical procedures, and may continue to have an impact beyond the Company’s control for some time, the Company has set an internal target of 6 to 9 months to complete the work required for the CPTAQ.

To this end, Canada Carbon will need to finalize its pit designs. SGS Canada has been requested to prepare a drill plan. Quotes for availability and pricing for drilling services have also been requested. The objectives of the drilling program, which is expected to be carried out between Fall 2021 and Spring 2022, will be to:

  • Further delimit the location of the graphite to obtain the value of the indicated or measured resources;

  • Refine the precision of the quarry and graphite pit contours;

  • Continue the hydrogeological study; and

  • Continue the geotechnical study.

Stratigraphy and topsoil analysis and an updated forest inventory are expected to be performed in the Fall of 2021.

The work will be done in collaboration with GSLR experts to the extent possible.

Olga Nikitovic, Interim CEO, commented, “Given the superior purity of the Miller graphite, we are firmly committed to advancing the Project as quickly as possible.”

Radnor, Pennsylvania–(Newsfile Corp. – August 29, 2021) – The law firm of Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP reminds investors of Piedmont Lithium Inc. f/k/a Piedmont Lithium Limited (NASDAQ: PLL, PLLL) ("Piedmont") that a securities fraud class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of those who purchased or acquired Piedmont securities between March 16, 2018 and July 19, 2021, inclusive (the "Class Period").

Deadline Reminder: Investors who purchased or acquired Piedmont securities during the Class Period may, no later than September 21, 2021, seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the class.

Piedmont engages in the exploration and development of resource projects. Piedmont primarily holds a 100% interest in a lithium project covering 2,322 acres in the North Carolina. On May 17, 2021, in connection with Piedmont's redomiciliation from Australia to the United States, Piedmont's American Depositary Share ("ADS") holders received one share of Piedmont common stock for each ADS.

The Class Period commences on March 16, 2018, when Piedmont filed a Registration Statement on a Form 20-F. On June 14, 2018, Piedmont issued a press release entitled "PIEDMONT LITHIUM ANNOUNCES MAIDEN MINERAL RESOURCE" which stated, in part, its "strategy of building an integrated lithium processing business based on proven, conventional technologies and benefitting from the inherent advantages of Piedmont's strategic North Carolina location, including; … [s]trong local government support." Throughout the Class Period, Piedmont informed investors regarding its plan for completing necessary permitting and zoning activities required to commence mining and processing operations in North Carolina.

The truth began to emerge on July 20, 2021. Before market hours, Reuters published an article entitled "In push to supply Tesla, Piedmont Lithium irks North Carolina neighbors" which reported the following, in pertinent part, regarding Piedmont's regulatory issues in North Carolina: (1) Piedmont had not applied for a state mining permit or a necessary zoning variance in Gaston County, just west of Charlotte, despite telling investors since 2018 that it was on the verge of doing so; (2) five of the seven members of the county's board of commissioners, who control zoning changes, said they may block or delay the project; and (3) Piedmont had been set to meet with commissioners in March, but canceled with three days' notice, further straining the relationship.

Following this news, Piedmont shares fell $12.56 per share over the trading day, or nearly 20%, to close at $50.52 per share on July 20, 2021.

The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, the defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Piedmont had not, and would not, follow its stated steps or timeline to secure all proper and necessary permits; (2) Piedmont failed to inform relevant people and governmental authorities of its actual plans; (3) Piedmont failed to file proper applications with relevant governmental authorities (including state and local authorities); (4) Piedmont and its lithium business did not have "strong local government support"; and (5) as a result, the defendants' public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times.

Piedmont investors may, no later than September 21, 2021, seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the class through Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP or other counsel, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. A lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of all class members in directing the litigation. In order to be appointed as a lead plaintiff, the Court must determine that the class member's claim is typical of the claims of other class members, and that the class member will adequately represent the class. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision of whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff.

Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP prosecutes class actions in state and federal courts throughout the country involving securities fraud, breaches of fiduciary duties and other violations of state and federal law. Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP is a driving force behind corporate governance reform, and has recovered billions of dollars on behalf of institutional and individual investors from the United States and around the world.

The complaint in this action was not filed by Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP. For more information about Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP please visit www.ktmc.com.

MONTREAL, August 27, 2021–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Lomiko Metals Inc. (TSX-V: LMR, OTC: LMRMF, FSE: DH8C) (Lomiko or the "Company") announces that it has engaged Hemmera, a wholly owned subsidiary of Ausenco, Engineering Canada Inc. a leading Canadian environmental consultancy.

"Lomiko is focused on investigating the best methods of handling mineralized and non-mineralized material for the duration of the project and remediation of the area as quickly as possible." Stated A. Paul Gill, CEO of Lomiko Metals Inc.

Environmental Baseline Studies

Lomiko Metals decided early on to explore as many layout alternatives as possible in order to reduce environmental impacts, upstream of the impact assessment process for the La Loutre Graphite Project ("Project"). In fact, during its Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") study, which is typically economic in nature, the internal team made an early decision to reduce the project's footprint to a minimum and reduce encroachment upon local wetlands and lakes. Several different alternatives were evaluated. Very early on during the concept studies, Lomiko decided to evaluate environmentally friendly options for tailings, in order to avoid the creation of traditional tailings disposal areas which comprise impoundment of tailings and water. This approach led to the choice of co-disposal of tailings with mine waste rock, , even though it is a higher-cost option for tailings disposal. By making early, well thought out and proactive decisions, the Project is seeking to minimise its environmental footprint and, wherever possible, avoiding contact with water, rather than simply implementing mitigation solutions.

With this approach in mind, Lomiko Metals has retained Hemmera to begin baseline studies of the surrounding area of the La Loutre Project, as of August 2021. These studies will make it possible to properly understand and document the environment of the area. The baseline studies will start with the characterization of wetlands, the characterization of fish habitat, hydrology, and surface water quality. These studies will progress through to next year, to provide the required information for the next project study phases as well as the environmental impact study, focussing on minimizing and compensating for any potential environmental impacts. The methodology used is in full compliance with all provincial and federal regulations.

Community Consultation

On August 20, 2021, Lomiko announced that Bridge© would be hired to facilitate community consultation. Opportunities for community participation are currently planned for the end of September 2021. These meetings will provide the opportunity to everyone concerned to learn more about the various stages of the Project, as well as the purpose of the current baseline studies. The community will be able to get involved by viewing the project presentation, asking questions after the presentation or more casually whilst mingling, and learn more about the opportunities created by the Project as well as the economic, social, and environmental benefits for all stakeholders in the area.

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.

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 the Golden Promise Property.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 26, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Hagens Berman urges Piedmont Lithium Inc. (NASDAQ: PLL) investors with significant losses to submit your losses now.

Piedmont Lithium Inc. (PLL) Securities Fraud Class Action:

The complaint alleges that Defendants misrepresented and concealed material information concerning Piedmont’s progress toward obtaining necessary permits and zoning variances to build a large lithium mine in Gaston County, North Carolina.

Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose that Piedmont: (1) has not, and would not, follow its stated steps or timeline to secure all proper and necessary permits, (2) did not inform relevant government authorities of its actual plans, (3) did not file proper applications with state and local authorities, and (4) did not have “strong local government support.”

On July 20, 2021, investors began to learn the truth when Reuters reported that (1) Piedmont had not even applied for the necessary mining permit or zoning variances, (2) five of the seven members of the Gaston County’s board of commissioners, who control zoning changes, say they may block or delay the project because Piedmont has not told them what levels of dust, noise and vibrations will occur, nor how water and air quality would be affected, and (3) the relationship between the company and county officials is increasingly strained.

These events sent the price of Piedmont American Depository Shares sharply lower.

Most recently, on Aug. 6, 2021, Reuters reported the Gaston County Commissioners unanimously approved a 60-day mining moratorium and said the company “cannot be trusted” to protect the health, safety, and welfare of citizens. Reuters also reported an outside adviser to the Commissioners informed them that a mine of this size was never anticipated in the development regulations.

“We’re focused on investors’ losses and proving Piedmont concealed known building permit and zoning risks posed by the Gaston County mine,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.

MONTRÉAL, Aug. 26, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The management of Sirios Resources Inc. (TSX-V: SOI) is pleased to announce results from the first batch of reanalysis completed on samples from previous drilling on the Cheechoo gold property in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec. A total of 359 samples were reanalyzed using 1 kg of material per sample at Agat's laboratory using the "LeachWELL" leaching technique. The recent assay results show an increase in the gold content of approximately 15% compared to previous assays performed on 50g of material.

The comparative statistical data obtained include:

  • 21% Increase in average gold content when comparing each pair of assay results,

  • 15% Increase in median gold grade from 0.33 g/t to 0.38 g/t,

  • 17% Increase in favour of 1 kg analyses according to the linear trend line of the Q-Q (quantile-quantile) graph.

The average gold grade reported in the table above (0.51 g/t / 0.53 g/t) is lower than the current reported grade of the Cheechoo mineral resource estimate (0.65 g/t). This decrease is due to the selection of samples for reanalysis that excludes most of the pre-existing results above 2 g/t Au, as these samples have already been analysed using 1 kg of material according to Sirios’ sampling protocol in place for Cheechoo. The lower gold grade threshold for selecting samples for reanalysis using 1 kg of material was set at 0.2 g/t in order to be as close as possible to the mineral resource estimate cut-off grade defined for the project.

Previous work had identified that samples returning greater than 2 g/t gold show an increase in the gold content when assaying with 1 kg of material. Samples with a gold grade ranging between 0.2 g/t and 2 g/t make up approximately 38% of the total number of samples used in the current resource estimation and therefore represent a major part of the reanalysis program.

An infographic accompanying this announcement is available at https://www.globenewswire.com/NewsRoom/AttachmentNg/3ff446e9-4481-46c9-9020-a2f63f07311c

This program is based on recommendations from Lynda Bloom, P.Geo. with Analytical Solutions Ltd., a leading authority in the field of exploration geochemistry and assay methods. The recommendations included using a larger sample size for assays, followed by a statistical study conducted by Sirios' geologists. Results of this study indicate that the measured gold content based on 1 kg samples is generally higher and more representative of the true gold grade than the sample analyzed with 50 g of material, which is more commonly analysed in the laboratory. This relationship between the measured gold content and the size of the analyzed sample is consistent with the mineralogical observations and data from the various metallurgical tests previously performed by Sirios and is typical of other deposits with a pronounced “nugget effect”.

Dominique Doucet, founder and CEO of Sirios, stated: "Following these encouraging results, the additional planned programs of reanalysis will be carried out in the coming months. In addition, a revision to Sirios’ assaying protocol will be applied to the current drilling campaign to increase the amount of assaying done using 1 kg of material. We believe that following the completion of this important reanalysis program, the likelihood of an upward revision to the average gold grade of the Cheechoo deposit is excellent. Drilling being carried out this summer and the reanalysis program will increase the quality of the Cheechoo deposit and possibly its average gold grade."

Assay quality control

For the re-assay program, 1 kg of reject material was taken from previous core samples to be assayed using the “LeachWELL” technique at AGAT Laboratories. This technique uses accelerated cyanide leaching equipment employing the patented LeachWELL™ reagent on 1 kg of pulverized material and was carried out over a 4 hours leaching period. After the leaching process, the residue was filtered and dried. The leached solution was analysed by ICP-MS for gold content and 50g of the residue was assayed by Fire Assay with an Atomic Absorption finish. The then combined analysis give the total gold content for the sample. A strict QA/QC program is in place by integrating blanks and certified reference standards to the reject sample sequence. Special certified reference standards (assay pills) have been used for assuring an adequate quality control on the 1 kg material assays.

About the Cheechoo property

The Cheechoo gold property, wholly-owned by Sirios, is located in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec, less than 9 km from Newmont’s Eleonore gold mine. The latest resource estimate for the Cheechoo project (October 2020) included an inferred resource of 2.0 million ounces of gold contained in 93.0 million tonnes of rock at an average grade of 0.65 g/t Au, with significant potential to increase this resource.1

The scientific and technical content of this press release has been reviewed and approved by Dominique Doucet, P.Eng. president and CEO of Sirios Resources Inc. and Jordi Turcotte, P.Geo. senior geologist, both qualified persons under National Instrument 43-101.

About Sirios

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that purchasers of Piedmont Lithium Inc. (NASDAQ: PLL) securities between March 16, 2018 and July 19, 2021, inclusive (“Class Period”), have until September 21, 2021 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Piedmont Lithium class action lawsuit. The Piedmont Lithium class action lawsuit (Skeels v. Piedmont Lithium Inc., No. 21-cv-04161) charges Piedmont Lithium and certain of its top executives with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Piedmont Lithium class action lawsuit was commenced on July 23, 2021 in the Eastern District of New York.

Sanchez of Robbins Geller by calling 800/449-4900 or via e-mail at jsanchez@rgrdlaw.com. Lead plaintiff motions for the Piedmont Lithium class action lawsuit must be filed with the court no later than September 21, 2021.

CASE ALLEGATIONS: The Piedmont Lithium class action lawsuit alleges that, throughout the Class Period, defendants made false and misleading statements and failed to disclose that: (i) Piedmont Lithium has not, and would not, follow its stated steps or timeline to secure all proper and necessary permits; (ii) Piedmont Lithium failed to inform relevant people and governmental authorities of its actual plans; (iii) Piedmont Lithium failed to file proper applications with relevant governmental authorities (including state and local authorities); (iv) Piedmont Lithium and its lithium business does not have “strong local government support”; and (v) as a result, defendants’ public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times.

On July 20, 2021, Reuters published an article entitled “In push to supply Tesla, Piedmont Lithium irks North Carolina neighbors” which reported the following, among other things, regarding Piedmont Lithium’s regulatory issues in North Carolina: “The company, however, has not applied for a state mining permit or a necessary zoning variance in Gaston County, just west of Charlotte, despite telling investors since 2018 that it was on the verge of doing so. Five of the seven members of the county’s board of commissioners, who control zoning changes, say they may block or delay the project . . . .” On this news, Piedmont Lithium’s stock price fell nearly 20%, damaging investors.

THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased Piedmont Lithium securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Piedmont Lithium class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Piedmont Lithium class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Piedmont Lithium class action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery of the Piedmont Lithium class action lawsuit is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Piedmont engages in the exploration and development of resource projects. Piedmont primarily holds a 100% interest in a lithium project covering 2,322 acres in the North Carolina. On May 17, 2021, in connection with Piedmont's redomiciliation from Australia to the United States, Piedmont's American Depositary Share ("ADS") holders received one share of Piedmont common stock for each ADS.

The Class Period commences on March 16, 2018, when Piedmont filed a Registration Statement on a Form 20-F. On June 14, 2018, Piedmont issued a press release entitled "PIEDMONT LITHIUM ANNOUNCES MAIDEN MINERAL RESOURCE" which stated, in part, its "strategy of building an integrated lithium processing business based on proven, conventional technologies and benefitting from the inherent advantages of Piedmont's strategic North Carolina location, including; … [s]trong local government support." Throughout the Class Period, Piedmont informed investors regarding its plan for completing necessary permitting and zoning activities required to commence mining and processing operations in North Carolina.

The truth began to emerge on July 20, 2021. Before market hours, Reuters published an article entitled "In push to supply Tesla, Piedmont Lithium irks North Carolina neighbors" which reported the following, in pertinent part, regarding Piedmont's regulatory issues in North Carolina: (1) Piedmont had not applied for a state mining permit or a necessary zoning variance in Gaston County, just west of Charlotte, despite telling investors since 2018 that it was on the verge of doing so; (2) five of the seven members of the county's board of commissioners, who control zoning changes, said they may block or delay the project; and (3) Piedmont had been set to meet with commissioners in March, but canceled with three days' notice, further straining the relationship.

Following this news, Piedmont shares fell $12.56 per share over the trading day, or nearly 20%, to close at $50.52 per share on July 20, 2021.

The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, the defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Piedmont had not, and would not, follow its stated steps or timeline to secure all proper and necessary permits; (2) Piedmont failed to inform relevant people and governmental authorities of its actual plans; (3) Piedmont failed to file proper applications with relevant governmental authorities (including state and local authorities); (4) Piedmont and its lithium business did not have "strong local government support"; and (5) as a result, the defendants' public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times.

Piedmont investors may, no later than September 21, 2021, seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the class through Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP or other counsel, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. A lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of all class members in directing the litigation. In order to be appointed as a lead plaintiff, the Court must determine that the class member's claim is typical of the claims of other class members, and that the class member will adequately represent the class. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision of whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — American Lithium Corp. (“American Lithium” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:LI | OTCQB:LIACF | Frankfurt:5LA1) is pleased to announce the highest lithium extraction results to date, achieving 97.4% extraction utilizing warm sulfuric acid leach on Tonopah Lithium Claims (“TLC”) claystone mineralization.

Highlights:

  • Latest TLC test work run by TECMMINE in Lima, Peru has achieved 97.4% lithium extraction using warm sulfuric acid leach, the highest results achieved to date from any recovery process.

  • On-going test work for the sulfuric acid process route will continue to be optimized by varying leach time, acid concentration, temperature, solid-liquid ratios and grind/particle size.

  • Metallurgical work on the TLC claystone mineralization continues to demonstrate amenability to three process options to extract lithium:

    • i) leaching with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) at 90°C (97.4% extraction);

    • ii) salt roasting followed by water leaching (initial 82% extraction); and

    • iii) leaching with hydrochloric acid (HCl) at 90°C (initial 95.1% extraction).

  • Continued metallurgical work will aim to take each processing option through to the lithium carbonate and/or lithium hydroxide precipitation stage and to focus on optimizing all 3 processing options and related flow-sheet designs.

  • Thereafter, the Company will select the best option to enable a robust Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) with economic benefits maximized and environmental impacts minimized.

Dr. Laurence Stefan, COO of American Lithium, stated, “We are pleased to have achieved the highest lithium extraction to date from TLC using simple sulfuric acid processing with almost the entire amount of lithium available extracted into sulfate solution. We continue to focus on optimizing the best process routes from both economic and environmental perspectives and, thereafter, to advance TLC through PEA towards future development.”

TLC Process Update
Process work has previously demonstrated that TLC claystones are amenable to rapid lithium extraction using warm sulfuric acid leaching, reaching 92% lithium extraction in 10 minutes. In addition, up to 82% lithium extraction has been achieved using salt roasting followed by water leaching (refer to previous news release, dated June 29, 2021). The latest test work run at TECMMINE achieved 97.4% lithium extraction into sulfate solution using H2SO4 at temperatures of 900C with 60-minute leaching.

Optimization test work will continue into Fall 2021 using all three potential process options: hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid as well as salt roasting/water leaching. American Lithium is committed to producing a world class process to supply cost competitive lithium products in an environmentally sound manner.

Stock Option Grant
The Company also announces the granting, subject to regulatory acceptance, of 500,000 incentive stock options to an advisor / consultant of the Company (the “Options”). The Options have a term of 5 years and are exercisable at a price of $1.81 per common share.

Cautionary Note Regarding Macusani Concessions
Thirty-two of the 151 concessions held by American Lithium’s subsidiary Macusani, are currently subject to Administrative and Judicial processes (together, the “Processes”) in Peru to overturn resolutions issued by INGEMMET and the Mining Council of MINEM in February 2019 and July 2019, respectively, which declared Macusani’s title to 32 of the concessions invalid due to late receipt of the annual validity payments. In November 2019, Macusani applied for injunctive relief on 32 concessions in a Court in Lima, Peru and was successful in obtaining such an injunction on 17 of the concessions including three of the four concessions included in the Macusani Uranium Project PEA. The grant of the Precautionary Measure (Medida Cautelar) has restored the title, rights and validity of those 17 concessions to Macusani until a final decision is obtained at the last stage of the judicial process. A Precautionary Measure application was made at the same time for the remaining 15 concessions and was ultimately granted by a Court in Lima, Peru on March 2, 2021 which has also restored the title, rights and validity of those 15 remaining concessions to Macusani, with the result being that all 32 concessions are now protected by Precautionary Measure (Medida Cautelar) until a final decision on this matter is obtained at the last stage of the judicial process. A final date for the last stage of the judicial process has not yet been set. If American Lithium’s subsidiary Macusani does not obtain a successful resolution of the Processes, its title to the concessions could be revoked.
