Momentum Public Relations
Press Release: February 15 2018
Equitorial Exploration Corp. (TSX-V: EXX, Frankfurt: EE1, OTCQB: EQTXF) (“Equitorial” or “Company”) is pleased to report that the Company will commence drilling its 100%-owned Cat Lake Lithium Property directly adjacent to the Cat Lake Mineral Project owned by Quantum Minerals Corp.
The drill contract was awarded to Rodren Drilling Ltd. of West Paul, Manitoba.
Drilling will commence the week of February 19, 2017.
Cat Lake Drill Program
The drill program will involve a total of 1,100 meters at a maximum depth of 300 meters per hole. Drilling will focus on the eastward strike extent of the Irgon Pegmatite presently being explored by Quantum Minerals. The Irgon Mine was an underground mining operation for spodumene (one of the hard rock sources for Li) from 1956-1957 . The historic estimate was 1.2 million tons of 1.51% Li2O ( Manitoba Government Assessment File 94932), not 43-101 compliant. In 1948, a drill hole on the company’s present Cat Lake Project claims, encountered 48 feet (~14.6 metres) of spodumene ( Manitoba Government assessment file 98073 ). This hole was not followed up at the time.
The drill program will be headed up by Carey Galeschuk. P. Geo, a consulting geologist with extensive experience in lithium bearing pegmatites. He will also serve as Qualified Person for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101.

Cat Lake Mineral Project
QMC Quantum Minerals Corp News Release September 7, 2017 reported:
“Between 1953-1954, the Lithium Corporation of Canada Limited drilled 25 holes into the Irgon Dike and reported a historical resource estimate of 1.2 million tons grading 1.51% Li20 over a strike length of 365 meters and to a depth of 213 meters (Northern Miner, Vol. 41, no.19, Aug. 4, 1955, p.3). This historical resource is documented in a 1956 Assessment Report by Bruce Ballantyne for the Lithium Corporation of Canada Ltd. (Manitoba Assessment Report No. 94932). This historical estimate is believed to be based on reasonable assumptions and the company/QP has no reason to contest the document’s relevance and reliability.”
The property lies within the east-trending Mayville-Cat-Euclid Greenstone Belt (“MCEGB”) located along the northern contact of the Maskwa Lake Batholith. This northern greenstone belt has a similar structural geological setting as the Bird River Greenstone Belt (“BRGB”) which is located along the southern contact of the same batholith, and is parallel to and approximately 18km to the south of the MCEGB. The property is located 20km north of the Tanco Mine Property. The BRGB hosts the world-class Tanco rare element-bearing pegmatite dike as well as numerous other lithium bearing pegmatites. The Tanco Mine went into production in 1969 and produced tantalum, cesium and spodumene (lithium). It was previously North America’s largest and sole producer of spodumene (Li), tantalite (Ta) and pollucite (Cs).

Arctic Star Mobilizes Drill, Timantti Project Finland
Momentum Public Relations
Press Release: February 9 2018
Arctic Star Exploration Corp (TSXV: ADD) (OTCQB: ASDZF) (FSE: 82A1) (WKN: A2DFY5) (“Arctic” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that a diamond drill rig will arrive at site on its 100% owned Timantti Diamond Project in Finland (the “Project”) on February 12, 2018 and will commence drilling shortly after. The drill will test newly identified kimberlite targets.
Since early December geophysical crews have been active in the field conducting magnetic, electromagnetic (MaxMin) and gravity surveys over much of the 243 Ha Exploration Reservation area. In mid-January the Company deployed an excavator to collect till samples to further support geophysics results. The basil till covering potential kimberlites on the Project is only one or two metres thick.
The purpose of conducting ground magnetic, electromagnetic and gravity surveys is to search for new kimberlitic targets and to discriminate these from non-kimberlite geophysical responses. A total of 41-line kilometres of electromagnetic (MaxMin) is planned, of which approximately 50% has been completed. Approximately 35 kilometres of gravity survey is also planned, of which 55% has been completed. There are also 61-line kilometres of ground magnetics planned of which 35% is now complete.
The Wolf kimberlites are moderate magnetic highs in a fairly magnetically noisy background with iron formations and mafic volcanics producing similar or more intense responses. At this stage, there are over twenty magnetic anomalies that may represent kimberlite targets in the general Wolf area, the gravity and MaxMin survey will help further prioritize these targets prior to drilling. The Wolf kimberlites for example also have an electromagnetic response.
The excavator is sampling the basal till, “down-ice” of the more promising geophysical anomalies. Four targets have been tested to date, and the samples have been sent to laboratory to extract indicator minerals. The drill will be directed to any of these that report diamond indicator minerals.
The drill will also be utilized to further delineate the Wolf kimberlites and return a larger caustic fusion micro-diamond sample to further determine the size and grade for a decision to bulk sample these diamondiferous kimberlites.
Buddy Doyle VP of Exploration commented, “By rapidly deploying these different exploration tools to our exploration permit, we expect to obtain multiple layers of evidence of new kimberlites that can be drill tested. We know there are more kimberlites in this area by the expression of diamond favorable indicator minerals in the region, which the Wolf kimberlites cannot explain. The company also will produce a steady stream of caustic diamond fusion results from drilling the Wolf kimberlites, which, so far have produced encouraging micro-diamond counts. The next six weeks will be an exciting time for the company.”
The Qualified Person for this news release is Roy Spencer, Fellow AUSIMM, a Geologist of over thirty years’ experience in diamonds.
ABOUT ARCTIC STAR: The Company owns 100% of the recently acquired Timantti Diamond Project including a 243 Ha Exploration Permit and a 95,700 Ha Exploration Reservation near the township of Kuusamo, in Finland. The project is located approximately 450km SW of the operating Grib Diamond Mine in Russia. Arctic is commencing its exploration in Finland on the Timantti Project, where two diamondiferous kimberlites may represent the first finds in a large kimberlite field. The Company also controls diamond exploration properties in Nunavut (Stein), the NWT (Diagras and Redemption) and a rare metals project in BC (Cap).
Arctic Star has a highly experienced diamond exploration team previously responsible for several world class diamond discoveries.

Press Release: February 8 2018
Tetra Bio-Pharma Inc. (TSX-V:TBP) (OTCQB:TBPMF) a global leader in cannabinoid-based drug development and discovery, announced today that it has entered into a revised agreement with Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. ( the “Underwriter”), pursuant to which the Underwriter will purchase, on a bought deal basis pursuant to the filing of a short form prospectus, an aggregate of 10,000,000 units (the “Units”) of the Company at a price of $1.00 per Unit (the “Offering Price”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $10,000,000 (the “Offering”).
Each Unit will consist of one common share (a “Common Share”) in the Company and one warrant (a “Warrant” and collectively the “Warrants”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price of $1.30, for a period of 36 months from the Closing Date.
The Company has agreed to grant the Underwriters an over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 1,500,000 Units at the offering price, exercisable for a period of 30 days after closing. If the over-allotment option is exercised in full, the gross proceeds from the Offering will be approximately $11.5 million.
“We are extremely pleased to partner with Echelon Wealth Partners in securing this financing agreement. As we are about to initiate our Health Canada’s recently approved phase 3 registration trial for our lead drug candidate, PPP001, in late stage cancer patients, the proceeds from this Offering will enable Tetra to continue, and even accelerate some of the key development projects in our pipeline. This is another milestone in working towards becoming the first biopharmaceutical company in the world to get a smokable dried cannabis product approved as a prescription drug by Health Canada, the FDA and other regulatory agencies around the world,” states Bernard Fortier, CEO of Tetra Bio-Pharma.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to advance the Company’s Phase 3 trial for PPP001 and other clinical trials, to effect the repayment of indebtedness and for general corporate and working capital purposes.

The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any state securities laws, and accordingly, may not be offered or sold within the United States except in compliance with the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities requirements or pursuant to exemptions therefrom.
