(TSX-V: EXX, Frankfurt: EE1, OTCQB: EQTXF) (“Equitorial” or “Company”) is pleased to report that drill hole CT-18-04 encountered approximately 20 meters of the same pegmatite found 50 meters to the east at the original pegmatite discovery (CT-18-02) at its 100%-owned Cat Lake Lithium Property in SE Manitoba directly, adjacent to the Cat Lake Mineral Project owned by Quantum Minerals Corp. CT-18-04 confirms the lateral extension of the pegmatite discovery.
Drill Program Update
As reported (news release March 21 st , 2018 ), the drill program encountered approximately 36 meters (true width not determined at this time) of a spodumene bearing pegmatite in DDH CT-18-02 at its 100%-owned Cat Lake Lithium Property directly adjacent to the Cat Lake Mineral Project owned by Quantum Minerals Corp.
The new pegmatite discovery (DDH CT-18-02) was encountered approximately 126 meters downhole or 90 meters below the surface. Drill hole CT-18-04 encountered approximately 20 meters of the same pegmatite 50 meters to the east of the original pegm atite discovery hole. This pegmatite was encountered approximately 105 meters downhole or 72 meters below the surface. CT-18-04 confirms the lateral extension of the pegmatite discovery.
The discovery drill hole was collared approximately 200 meters southeast of the last surface exposure of the Irgon Pegmatite. All drill holes of the pegmatite exploration program encountered varying degrees of pegmatites at different depths. The pegmatites encountered in the program were buried and had no known surface expression. The company is presently in the process of sampling the pegmatite intervals and will announce assay results once they are received and reviewed.
The last drill hole of the Lithium Pegmatite exploration portion of the drill program has begun. The drilling has been focused on understanding the orientation and extent of the new pegmatite discovery. Additional meterage has been added to the program. The final portion of the drilling will test the skarn and old mine shaft located on the east side of the project area.
The drill program is headed up by Carey Galeschuk. P. Geo, a consulting geologist with extensive experience in lithium bearing pegmatites. He also serves as Qualified Person for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101.

Momentum Public Relations
Press Release: March 27 2018
ProSmart Enterprises Inc. (TSXV:PROS) (“ProSmart” or the “Company”), a global online network, connecting sports fans, teams and brands, is pleased to announce a two-year marketing and services partnership (the “Agreement”) with Dragon Group Asia (“DGA”). This follows the Company’s recent acquisition of DL Hockey (see news release dated March 05, 2018), which operates hockey clubs and skills camps in China. DGA – a specialist sports marketing company in China that works with some of the world’s biggest brands – will develop a WeChat app that integrates with ProSmart’s online network. Importantly, this initiative will accelerate mass-market access in China, to ProSmart’s industry-leading, sports education system and team management suite. In effect, the new sports development WeChat app will position ProSmart as a premier gateway for youth development to educational companies around the world to leverage to gain access to the Chinese market. The timing of this deal is considered a strong advantage since China is currently implementing a multi-billion dollar Winter sports program, prior to hosting the 2022 Winter Olympics.
News Highlights
- ProSmart is partnering with a leader in China’s booming sports marketing industry
- The ProSmart online network will be integrated with a specialized website and WeChat app
- WeChat is China’s most popular social media app, with over 1 billion monthly active users
- With the upcoming 2022 Winter Olympics, China is spending billions on winter sports development and is hungry for sports education content – which ProSmart specializes in.
The WeChat app is a critical milestone for ProSmart’s expansion into China. WeChat is the most popular multi-purpose social media app in China, with 980 million monthly active users (MAU) and is the most effective method for engaging the estimated 1.4 billion Chinese sports fans and players. China’s sports industry – already estimated at 1.5 trillion yuan (US$240 billion) in 2016, is forecast by the Bank of China to more than triple by 2025, to a total of 5 trillion yuan (US$800 billion).
Alan Schuler, co-founder and CEO of ProSmart says, “DGA is operating at the very top of its field in China’s huge and rapidly-growing sports industry. This partnership is going to greatly accelerate our entry into China, enabling us to engage one of the most dynamic sports markets in the world.”
Johanna Hoopes, CEO, of DGA commented, “China is spending billions of dollars on winter sports development in preparation for hosting the 2022 Olympic Winter Games. This includes hundreds of new ice rinks, hiring top coaches and trainers from North America and energizing the entire country in support. One of ProSmart’s critical advantages is the unique sports education content it has created, using Olympic medalists, Hall of Fame star players, coaches and professional athletes. China is hungry for precisely this sort of content and, by integrating the ProSmart online network with China’s top social media app, we are tremendously excited about the potential rate of growth.”

Alliance First Drill Hole Completed — Shows All the Characteristics of Gold Mineralization — Bissett Gold Camp, Manitoba
Alliance Mining Corp. (TSX-v: ALM) (“Alliance” or the “Company”) is providing an update on its drill program on its Packsack gold property which began on March 15th 2018, and is being supervised by Alliance’s consulting geologist William C. Hood P. Geo. The Packsack property forms part of the company’s Red Rice Lake gold project located in Bissett Manitoba.
The first hole of the approximately 1,000 metre drill program was drilled to a depth of 380 metres under the existing Packsack shaft. Drilling under the Packsack shaft has shown that shearing, late dikes, and quartz veining with sericite, pyrite and tourmaline extend well below the 150 metre level drift. The features and mineralization observed in the core “show all the characteristics of gold mineralization found in the Packsack veins and elsewhere in the Bissett Gold camp,” says Bill Hood, P.Geo.
To view the graphic in its original size, please click here
The second drill hole in now underway. This is the first significant drill program to test under the 500 ft (152 m) level exploration drift on the Packsack property.
The Packsack property hosts several gold-bearing veins within a conjugate fracture set adjacent to the Red Rice shear zone. Previous exploration on the Packsack property has been focused on the Big Dome Vein, with a shaft to 525 ft (160 m) and 2867 ft (874 m) of drifting and crosscutting on 4 levels down to 500 ft (152 m), all completed between 1936 and 1940. The structural control on veining at the Packsack property is similar to that at the True North Mine, 4 km northeast, operated by Klondex Mines Ltd.
To view the graphic in its original size, please click here
Alliance Mining has an option to acquire 100 per cent of the Red Rice Lake property located in the centre of the Bissett gold camp in Manitoba. The property is located close to the town of Bissett, Man., and just four kilometres south from Klondex Mines’ True North gold mine. The Red Rice Lake gold property claims are located within the Archean Rice Lake greenstone belt in southeastern Manitoba. This belt forms part of the Uchi sub province that includes the Red Lake and Pickle Lake belts in Northwestern Ontario.
Alliance is actively seeking to expand its presence in the Bissett Gold camp through future property acquisitions and/or potential joint venture exploration partnerships with neighbouring companies.

A Bitcoin Primer
Momentum Public Relations
Blog: March 26 2018
Some of us know a little, some of us know a lot, but most of us haven’t got the foggiest notion of what a Bitcoin or a cryptocurrency is.
If you follow the news, you will have noted that media coverage is increasing. On Thursday March 15th, CNBC reported that the value of global cryptocurrencies fell from US$372.9 billion to US$310.4 billion. According to Digital Trends there are 1,300 cryptocurrencies in existence. Among them are Dash, Ethereum, Litecoin and Plasma.
Investing in them may be a dangerous gamble, even Venezuela has floated a cryptocurrency, the Petro. Financial Post columnist Diane Francis has ranked them on a par with the Bre-X scandal, Canadian Tire money and has advised investors to avoid them like the plague.
The reason for the recent fall in value was mainly twofold, the threat of increasing regulation and the actions of the trustee for Mt Gox a bankrupt Japanese bitcoin clearing house, who flooded the market with bitcoins in an attempt to pay off creditors.
The slide in value was also pushed along by the news that first Facebook in January and then Google in March banned advertising for cyptocurrencies, wallets and ICOs. Highly volatile, the value of bitcoins fell from US$20,000 in 2017 to US$8,219 a bitcoin on March 15th.
Cryptocurrencies are a digital currency. They aren’t backed by any national bank or regulated by any government or financial regulatory agency. Their only value is what you think it is and that may end up being nothing at all or a great deal.
Bitcoins are generated by solving complex mathematical puzzles. A process which makes seeing any real value in them difficult. It is a process which consumes a great deal of electricity. Wallets are applications that store cryptocurrencies on your computer and ICOs are Initial Coin Offerings which take place when a new cryptocurrency is launched.
Along with last week’s fall in cryptocurrency value, other recent news headlines include Plattsburg, New York’s decision to stop selling cheap electricity to bitcoin miners because they have driven the cost of electricity up for other residents and the arrival of a bitcoin mining operation in Sherbrooke, Quebec where Sherbrooke Hydro offers cheap electricity.
Quebec-based Bitfarm says that its Sherbrooke operation will employ up to 250 people. The company has operations in several communities in Quebec’s Eastern Townships. Bitfarm is reportedly spending $250 million to set up its Sherbrooke operation.
Bitcoin miners from as far afield as China have been reported as eyeing Quebec because of its comparatively cheap electrical rates.
All of this was topped by the announcement by Quebec Premier Philippe Couillard that bitcoin miners were not welcome in the province because they didn’t provide any added value for Quebec. Quebec may even decide to deter bitcoin operations by increasing the amount Hydro Quebec charges them for electricity.
It appears that while we were napping and concentrating on real stocks with real products and real business plans that the business of cryptocurrencies has become the object of intense speculation.
American financial regulators have allowed the trading of bitcoin futures. There is even a company, HashChain, trading on the TSXV and OTCQB that along with being an active bitcoin miner, offers tax software targeted at the fast and exciting world of cryptocurrency.
By their very nature cryptocurrencies are shadowy and elusive. Murky because we don’t really know who bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto is, or if he actually ever existed. Nakamoto has said via internet posts that he lived in Japan but the internet server he used was a free one located in Germany.
Even the name is a little confusing. Merriam Webster defines crypto as a “person who adheres or belongs secretly to a party, sect or other group.” The word was coined in 1946 and most commonly used in a compound form, crypto-communist, crypto-fascist, etc.
Crypto in cryptocurrency, instead refers to the fact that transactions on a cryptocurrency network are encrypted, safe and secure.
In 2008 Nakamoto posted a paper on the creation of a cryptocurrency on a cryptographers message board. During 2009 he launched bitcoin. By 2010 Nakamoto had handed bitcoin over to another developer, Gavin Andreson who had helped develop bitcoin technology. Nakamoto stopped posting on bitcoin forums in 2010 and hasn’t been heard of since.
The benefits of a cryptocurrency or rather, the technology behind it could be very large. Blockchain technology promises to make transactions faster and ensure privacy. Bitcoin was initially developed during the 2008 banking crash and subsequent recession.
Some supporters see cryptocurrencies as a cure all for economic woes because cryptocurrencies are not state regulated. Because they are not regulated they can’t be used to provide economic stimulation that in turn devalues currency. Others believe they can eliminate credit card fraud, provide a financial safe haven for people living in war zones and the ability to provide people without bank accounts a safe way to transfer money.
While most of these are laudable desires, the true value in cryptocurrencies probably lies in the development of blockchain technology that allows cryptocurrencies to make fast, safe and easy transactions.
Cryptocurrencies had been dreamed of and worked on since the 1990s but Nakamoto was the first to solve the basic problem which had held development back, how to prevent people from simply cutting and pasting their digital currency again and again. This is called the double spend.
To put it a little more simply, he developed a system that would prevent digital currency fraud. He did this by creating a central registry or ledger that would be maintained by members of the bitcoin community in a variety of locations. Because every ledger entry is checked against other nodes in the network fraud becomes impossible.
The central registry and bitcoins themselves depend on blockchain technology. Cryptocurrencies are based on the idea of making transactions quicker and simpler by bypassing government control of currency. It does this by storing information across a peer to peer network, a blockchain. This can be better understood if you think of the blockchain as an operating system and bitcoin as the application that runs on it.
Bitcoins and for the most part other cryptocurrencies are generated by what is called mining. This is a computer intensive activity whereby a series of computers are strung together to solve a mathematical puzzle. The first “miner” to solve the problem is rewarded with a set number of bitcoins. The amount of electricity this uses globally is equivalent to all the electricity used by Ireland.
Wired has an excellent guide to bitcoins and cryptocurrencies which you can read by following this link. Next week this blog will explore the reasons behind calls for an intense regulatory regime for cryptocurrencies and some of the reasons why some investors won’t touch them with a ten foot pole.
Arctic Star Drills Grey Wolf Kimerlite Discovery, Timantti Diamond Project, Finland
Momentum Public Relations
Press Release: March 26 2018
Arctic Star Exploration Corp (TSXV: ADD) (OTCQB: ASDZF) (FSE: 82A1) (“Arctic” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that 5 drill holes have been completed at the new kimberlite discovery, called Grey Wolf, on its 100% owned Timantti Diamond Project in Finland (the “Project”). Highlights of the drilling include:
- All 5 holes intersected kimberlite.
- Longest intercept in this drill program was 45m.
- Grey Wolf is part of an east-west 300m long chain of kimberlite open in both directions.
- Core to be sampled for diamonds.
The discovery is in close proximity to the other Wolf kimberlites in the Project area. Split core samples will be sent for caustic fusion for diamonds and diamond indicator minerals.
The following table summarizes the drill intercepts on the Grey Wolf kimberlite discovery:
Hole No. | Easting (m) |
Northing (m) |
Bearing/Dip (degrees) |
Total Depth |
From (m) |
To (m) |
Width (m) |
Description |
GW-001 | 4470715 | 7335710 | 15/45 | 21.7 | 3.5 | 15.5 | 12.0 | Kimberlite |
GW-002 | 4470715 | 7335710 | 105/45 | 42.0 | 3.0 | 38.2 | 35.2 | Kimberlite |
GW-003 | 4470715 | 7335710 | 195/45 | 20.5 | 3.5 | 15.3 | 11.8 | Kimberlite |
GW-004 | 4470715 | 7335710 | 310/45 | 17.5 | 4.4 | 9.9 | 5.5 | Kimberlite |
GW-005 | 4470715 | 7335710 | 105/80 | 47.5 | 2.0 | 47.5 | 45.5 | Kimberlite |
Note: Co-ordinates use the KKJ system. Core diameter is 64.4mm. Maximum true widths will be approximately 70% of the drill intercepts reported if the kimberlite walls are vertical and perpendicular. The Country Rock consisted of quartzites, and greenstones, with occasional quartzite xenoliths in the kimberlite up to 1m diameter.
Visual observation of the core confirms that it contains kimberlitic indicator minerals that demonstrate that the kimberlite sampled the mantle.
As per the February 20, 2018 new release, the Grey Wolf kimberlite was discovered by excavator whilst collecting a basal till sample from the center of a 120m diameter gravity low as determined by our recently completed ground geophysical program. The drill rig was located near one of the discovery pits and commenced drilling angle holes, in the direction of the cardinal points of the compass (north–south, east–west) plus 15 degrees. The final hole was vertical. All entered kimberlite beneath a 3-4m till cover (down hole).
From the present drilling, the Grey Wolf kimberlite seems to be a 20-30m wide body on the same east-west trend as the other Wolf kimberlites to the east, and the D476 dyke to the west. The entire Wolf Pack group of kimberlites: White, Black, Grey and D476 now extend for approximately 300m. Further drilling will be required to understand the geometry and size of these bodies. There are further magnetic, EM and gravity anomalies along the same east-west trend further to the east and the west that will make interesting future drill targets.
The drill rig has now moved to the White and Black Wolf kimberlites to obtain more sample for caustic fusion micro-diamond analysis and to gain further understanding of their size and shape.
The Qualified Person for this news release is Roy Spencer, Fellow AUSIMM, a Geologist of over thirty years’ experience in diamonds.
