Sirona Biochem Signs Agreement with Global Pharmaceutical Company for Clinical Trial of its Novel Skincare Compound TFC-1067
Sirona Biochem Corp. (TSXV: SBM) (FSE: ZSB) (US-OTC: SRBCF) (“Sirona“) is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement with a top 10 global pharmaceutical company (“Company”) to jointly test Sirona’s novel skin care, dark spot remover, TFC-1067, in a new clinical study. TFC-1067 will be tested using a new higher concentration (0.4%) and advanced formulation.
The clinical trial, launched October 5th, will run for a period of 12 weeks and include a minimum of 125 participants. It will be managed by Dermscan (a division of Eurofins), a global leader in cosmetic clinical trials. The study’s endpoint is to determine the compound’s ability to reduce hyperpigmentation or “dark spots” of the skin.
Multiple parameters will be measured including the added effects of the higher concentration of TFC-1067 and a boosted formulation. The study is expected to complete in early 2021 with results in February 2021. The study protocol was established through a collaboration of the scientific teams of TFChem, Sirona’s wholly owned subsidiary and the Company’s skincare scientific team.
Following the study, the Company will have first access to the clinical study results to assess potential use by its subsidiary dermatology company.
“To have a partner of this magnitude assisting in the design and financing of our clinical trial is a testament to the potential of TFC-1067,” said Dr. Howard Verrico, CEO of Sirona Biochem. “We look forward to continuing our relationship with their clinical team through the study as we evaluate the higher dose and improved formulation of the compound. TFC-1067 has been clinically proven to selectively lighten dark spots and blend them into surrounding skin tone. The ability to lessen visibility of dark spots while preserving underlying skin tone safely is a unique consumer benefit.”

Northern Lights Executes Option/Joint Venture Agreement for the Medicine Springs Project with Reyna Silver Corp.
Northern Lights Resources Corp. (CSE:NLR)(“Northern Lights” or “NLR”) is pleased to announce that it has executed a Property Option and Joint Venture Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Reyna Silver Corp. (TSXV:RSLV) (“Reyna Silver”) on the Medicine Springs Project in Elko County, Nevada, U.S.A. (the “Transaction”).
The Medicine Springs Project comprises 149 unpatented Federal mineral claims covering 1,189 Ha located in the Ruby Mountains Valley just off the famous Carlin Trend. The Medicine Springs Project has the potential to host silver-zinc-lead Carbonate Replacement Deposit (“CRD”) mineralization. Northern Lights is currently earning a 100% interest in the Medicine Springs Project under the terms of an option agreement with the underlying claim owners executed August 20, 2017 (the “NLR 2017 Option”).
Under the terms of the Agreement, Reyna can earn up to 80% equity in the Medicine Springs Project by completing minimum exploration expenditures of US$2.4 million plus other commitments and paying a cash payment of US$1 million to Northern Lights by no later than December 31, 2023. (See “Key Terms of the Property Option and Joint Venture Agreement” for details). Upon completion, Northern Lights and Reyna Silver will jointly own 100% of the Medicine Springs Project and will establish a Joint Venture.
Northern Lights has a free carried interest (with no future repayment) on all exploration expenditures on the Medicine Springs Project until Reyna Silver has spent a minimum of US$4 million. After the free carry period is complete, Northern Lights will contribute to joint venture expenditures on an equity basis.
The Transaction is legally binding with completion only subject to the finalization of Reyna Silver’s legal due diligence on the Medicine Springs Project mineral claims that is to be finished by the end of October 2020.
Northern Lights CEO, Jason Bahnsen commented “We are delighted to have Reyna Silver as a joint venture partner on the Medicine Springs Project. Medicine Springs is a CRD system with high-grade silver potential similar to Reyna Silver’s flagship Guigui Project in Mexico. This joint venture leverages the exploration work that Northern Lights has completed on the project together with the proven CRD expertise of Dr. Peter Megaw and the team at Reyna Silver. We look forward to working together with Reyna Silver to accelerate unlocking the potential of Medicine Springs.”

The Medicine Springs Project
Dr. Peter Megaw, Technical Advisor to Reyna Silver commented “Medicine Springs ticks the most important boxes we look for in CRD exploration including location on a large regional structure that hosts significant CRDs, situated at the top or a thick section of potentially favorable carbonate host rocks and evidence of high silver grades. Some of the dump and rock chip samples run well over our 400 g/t (12 oz/t) silver threshold and it is quite likely that similar grades were diluted by the Reverse Circulation drilling used historically in the district. We will be drilling core to get a true picture of the clearly structurally-controlled mineralization as we trace it towards its source.”
Since acquiring the Medicine Springs Project in 2017, Northern Lights has completed exploration work including detailed geological mapping, rock sampling, analysis of historic geophysical survey data (CSAMT and IP), review of historic exploration drilling, an aeromagnetic survey and an Ionic Leach soil geochemistry survey (see Figure 3).
The historic 125 shallow Reverse Circulation drill holes on the Medicine Springs Project encountered partially oxidized silver-zinc-lead mineralization at depths of up to 180 meters intersecting silver grades of up to 225 g/t. An extensive rock sampling program was completed in 2018 with a total of 66 samples collected in conjunction with surface mapping. Of the 66 samples collected, 27 samples assayed greater than 20 g/t silver and there were 17 samples with silver assays exceeding 100 g/t and a maximum value of 559 g/t. The Ionic Leach soil geochemistry survey completed in 2019 defined a strong coherent NE trending silver-zinc-lead anomaly which measures more than 2,000 meters in length and ranges up to 500 meters in width.
The results of the exploration work completed by Northern Lights at the Medicine Springs Project highlight the potential for significant silver-zinc-lead mineralization including the potential for high-grade CRD style mineralization.

Lengths are core length and are close to true widths, no capping applied. Au is Gold by Fire assay, or by gravimetric finish or screen metallic method. The assays still pending are for holes GR-20-15 and GR-20-17.
Frank J. Basa, P.Eng., “The drill hole data under the pit-constrained resource could potentially change the economics of developing the Granada Mine Property. Previously explored as a low-grade, open pit deposit, the company now envisions an open pit with a ramp from the bottom of the pit into the higher-grade mineralization below, significantly adding more ounces to the current resource.”
Holes GR-20-10 through GR-20-13 were drilled in front of GR-11-384 to enable definition of an underground mineral resources panel in that sector. GR-11-384 intersected 3.05m at 35.76 g/t Au at 425.45m. This interval is 225m up dip of GR-18-03 which intersected 8 meters at 6.65 g/t Au at a depth of 569m in vein 2 (footwall vein historical labelling within the LONG Bars Zone.)
Holes GR-20-14 and GR-20-15 were drilled 50 metres to the north of GR-11-377 to enable definition of underground mineral resources in that sector. GR-11-377 previously intersected the 3 veins: Vein 1, Vein 3 & Vein 2(foot wall) with high-grade individual assays of 3.64 g/t Au over 1.5m at 265.5m, 14.37g/t Au over 1.5m328.5m, and 6.65 g/t Au over 1.3m at 429.7m.
Holes GR-20-16 and GR-20-17 were then drilled on the same set-up as GR-11-393 with different dips to enable definition of underground mineral resources in that sector. GR-11-393 had intersected the 3 veins: Vein 1, Vein 3 & Vein 2 (foot wall) with high-grade individual assays of 12.14 g/t Au over 0.5m at 277.5m, 9.76g/t Au over 1.0m at 318.0m, and 12.73 g/t Au over 1.3m at 425.5m. As noted, assay results from GR-20-15 and GR-20-17 have not yet been received but will be disclosed after they are validated and interpreted. See drillhole location map further down in this press release for more details. The table presents the characteristics of the drill holes.

About Granada Gold Mine Inc.
Granada Gold Mine Inc. continues to develop the Granada Gold Property near Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec. Approximately 120,000 meters of drilling has been completed to date on the property, focused mainly on the extended LONG Bars zone which trends 2 kilometers east-west over a potential 5.5 kilometers of mineralized structure. The highly prolific Cadillac Break, the source of more than 75 million plus ounces of gold production in the past century, cuts through the north part of the Granada property. But is not necessarily indicative of mineralization hosted on the company’s property.
Pit-Constrained Mineral Resources at Granada disclosed on February 13th, 2019 Press Release prepared by SGS independent QP Maxime Dupéré Geo. & Allan Armitage P. Geo “Technical Report on the Granada Gold Project Mineral Resource Estimate, Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, Canada.”stand at:
Category | Tonnes | Grade (g/t AU) | Contained Gold (oz.) |
Measured | 12,637,000 | 1.02 | 413,000 |
Indicated | 9,630,000 | 1.13 | 349,000 |
Measured & Indicated | 22,267,000 | 1.06 | 762,000 |
Inferred | 6,930,000 | 2.04 | 455,000 |
Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. An Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applying to a Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration.
* Pit constrained mineral resources are reported at a cut-off grade of 0.4 g/t Au within a conceptual pit shell.
The Granada Shear Zone and the South Shear Zone contain, based on historical detailed mapping as well as from current and historical drilling, up to twenty-two mineralized structures trending east-west over five and half kilometers. Three of these structures were mined historically from two shafts and two open pits. Historical underground grades were 8 to 10 grams per tonne gold from two shafts down to 236 m and 498 m with open pit grades from 5 to 3.5 grams per tonne gold
The Company is in possession of all mining permits required to commence the initial mining phase, known as the “Rolling Start”, which allows the company to mine up to 550 tonnes per day. Additional information is available at www.granadagoldmine.com.

Canada Silver Cobalt Expands Robinson Zone by 500 Percent, Intersects New High-Grade Vein
Canada Silver Cobalt Works Inc. (TSXV: CCW) (OTC: CCWOF) (Frankfurt: 4T9B) (the “Company” or “Canada Silver Cobalt”) is pleased to announce a major reinterpretation of the past-producing Gowganda Silver Camp, 75 kilometers southwest of Kirkland Lake, and vast expansion to the mineralized Robinson Zone at Castle East with just the first 9,000 metres in Phase 1 of the 50,000-metre drill program in this exciting high-grade grassroots silver discovery.
Highlights:
- 3,452 g/t silver over 0.4 metres downhole in hole CS-20-28 intersected 75 metres above Robinson Zone original intersection in an all-new vein
- Targeted exploration area significantly enlarged up to 135 metres East-West, up to 100 metres North-South and up to 256 metres vertically – resulting in a 500% increase in known mineralized area
- At least 4 new mineralized veins identified in the first 9,000 metres of 50,000 metre drill program
Strategic drilling has opened up at least 3 new veins – including 3,452 g/t silver over 0.4 metres (true width unknown) downhole – an all-new vein intersected in hole CS-20-28, 75 metres above Robinson Zone original intersection – at a depth of 347 metres. Additionally, the Company is very encouraged with the intersection of multiple, large carbonate veins at depth, conveying a strong plumbing network to the Robinson Zone and Castle East. These additional veins contain sufficient silver mineralization to justify further targeting them in search of potential high-grade mineralized panels. Mineralization is being added to the east-west lateral extent of the Zone along with new veins to the north and the south. The deposit model is continually updated to extract new and valuable structural and geochemical information.
Due to the early and significant successful progress to date – Canada Silver Cobalt Works has completed 18% of the initial, proposed 50,000-metre drill program – the Company is already considering expanding the program to follow up on the newly identified mineralized veins as well as to further expand the potential exploration horizon. There are currently 2 drill rigs on site drilling round the clock. The Company is redefining historic assumptions about silver exploration in the Gowganda Camp.
The uppermost mineralized vein intercept in hole CS-20-31 (assays pending) occurs less than 10 metres below the upper contact, at a vertical depth of 336 metres and the original high-grade vein intersection in hole CA-1108 grading 40,944 g/t silver (1,194 oz/ton) over a core length of 0.45 metres with a true width of approximately 7cm (refer to August 25, 2011, Gold Bullion Development news release) at a vertical depth of approximately 430 metres. Another deep mineralized vein was intersected in CS-20-22W3 (assays pending), the deepest one to date, at 592 metres vertical depth.With these recent new mineralized vein discoveries, the vertical extent of significant silver mineralization has now reached 256 metres.
Notably, vein intersections at Castle East exist in both the upper and lower parts of the Nipissing diabase sill, near the contact with the Archean volcanics, greatly enhancing the deposit potential of the area with implications for the broader Camp where historic production was predominantly within the upper half of the diabase sill. CCW now has a greater opportunity to expand the Robinson Zone since the potential mineralized horizon is much larger than originally believed.
Matt Halliday, P.Geo., VP-Exploration, commented: “We are excited about the drill program; we initiated a large-scale drill program and we are realizing the results. We have moved from a single vein at the Robinson to at least 4 mineralized veins, greatly expanding the potential for new high-grade panels. We have expanded the traditional mineralized horizon. It has been noted in literature that the upper third to upper half of the diabase sill is the mineralized horizon – it is now our belief that the entire diabase sill has the potential to be mineralized.”
Property Map
Visit the Canada Cobalt website at https://canadasilvercobaltworks.com/ for an updated Castle Property Map, or click on the following link: https://canadasilvercobaltworks.com/projects/maps/
Location
The Castle Property is 15 km east of Pan American Silver’s Juby gold deposit, 30 km due south of Alamos Gold’s Young-Davidson mine, 75 km southwest of Kirkland Lake Gold’s Macassa Complex, and 100 km southeast of new gold discoveries in the Timmins West area.
Quality Assurance/Quality Control
Samples were collected using a 0.3-meter minimum length, one-meter maximum length. Drill core recovery averaged 95%. Two quality control samples (blank and standards) were inserted into each batch of 20 samples. The drill core was sawn with one half of the sawn core placed in a plastic bag with the sample tag and sealed, while the second half was returned to the core box for storage on site. For the high-grade intercepts, only one-quarter of the core has been sent for assaying to Swastika Laboratories in Swastika, Ontario. Where silver was visually and significantly present, a pulp-metallic analysis was requested for the silver and gold assays where the entire sample is dried, weighed and crushed over 95% then fully pulverized and passed through 200-mesh screen to create a plus 200-mesh fraction (metallics) and a minus 200-mesh fraction (pulp). The minus 200-mesh fraction (fines) was run using geochemical analysis with AA finish for Ag, Au, Cu, Ni, and Co. The entire +200 mesh (coarse) fraction was analyzed using gravimetric processes (fire assay) for both Ag and Au to provide a weighted average assay for the entire sample. Swastika Laboratories is an ISO/IEC 17025:2005 certified lab independent of Canada Cobalt.

San Marco Samples up to 13.3 G/t Gold and 633 G/t Silver at the Buck Gold-Silver Property, Central British Columbia
San Marco Resources Inc. (TSXV: SMN) (“San Marco” or the “Company”) announces results from its summer exploration program and commencement of an induced polarization (IP) geophysical survey at its 100% controlled Buck gold and silver property in central British Columbia, Canada.
The 22,000 hectare Buck property is located approximately 12 kilometres (km) south of Houston, British Columbia, via an all-weather access road. It has excellent nearby infrastructure and allows for year round exploration. Phase 2 drilling is currently underway on the Buck property (see SMN news release dated September 8th, 2020).
Highlights
- A 700 by 300 metre (m) multi-element soil anomaly, open to the north, was defined at Buck North centered one kilometre north of historic drilling.
- Grab samples returned assays of up to 13.3 grams per tonne (g/t) Au and 44.1 g/t Ag from the Trench zone, and 11.1 g/t Au with 5.9 g/t Ag from the Horseshoe zone, confirming the presence of higher grade epithermal-related mineralization throughout the Buck property.
- A 20 line-km IP geophysical survey has commenced.
- Five HQ diamond drill holes are now complete.
Rock Geochemistry
A program of geological mapping and rock sampling was completed in preparation for drilling. A total of 104 grab samples were collected from throughout the Buck property (Figure 1). Sampling was focused primarily on the Buck breccia complex and the Buck structural corridor (see SMN news release dated August 6th, 2020).
Table 1. Selected Grab Samples
Sample | Zone | Rock Type | Au (g/t) | Ag (g/t) | Zn (%) |
A0603833 | Trench | dacite | 13.30 | 44.10 | 0.25 |
R266301 | Trench | dacite | 7.20 | 14.95 | 0.59 |
A0603824 | Trench | dacite | 5.40 | 186.00 | 0.06 |
A0603832 | Trench | lapilli tuff | 5.30 | 24.80 | 0.05 |

Systematic sampling of mineralized, northwest-striking structures along Bob creek, which forms the core of the Horseshoe zone, suggest that low-angle shear-zones carry higher-grade mineralization (sample A0603848; Table 1) and that structural intersections with high-angle structures are also favorable hosts for gold mineralization. The orientations of these structures and intersections helped inform the orientations of some of the current Phase 2 diamond drill holes (see SMN news release dated September 8th, 2020).
The Trench zone comprises an area of historic trenching covering a footprint of approximately 200 by 220 m where local near-continuous Au mineralization has been reported from chip sampling and local historic drilling (see SMN news release dated June 23rd, 2020). The zone is underlain primarily by quartz-plagioclase porphyritic dacite and polymictic breccia that hosts clotted and vein-controlled pyrite-sphalerite mineralization. Sampling of the trenches have returned many >1 g/t Au samples which confirm historic data and also suggests a strong structural control. Additional structural mapping focused on the higher-grade areas (sample A0603833; Table 1) in the Trench zone is warranted in order to refine drill targets.
The Bob zone is 1.5 km west of the Horseshoe zone and consists of near-vertical, northwest striking quartz-pyrite-arsenopyrite-sphalerite shear-hosted veins and vein-breccias that crosscut andesitic lapilli tuff which have been exposed in historic adits and workings. These veins and vein breccias (2 to 50 cm) have returned assays of up to 633 g/t Ag (sample R266334; Table 1). The extent of these veins is not presently known and the area warrants detailed follow-up.
Grab samples are used to provide evidence of mineralization, however, grab samples are selective in nature and the resulting assays from the samples may not be representative of all mineralization on the property.
Soil Geochemistry
A recently completed 26 line-km soil grid consisted of 679 samples collected from 24 north-south lines spaced 25 to 100 m apart with samples spaced 25 to 50 m along the lines. The center of the grid is located one km northwest of the Horseshoe zone and one km north of the Trench zone where the bulk of historic drilling has taken place (Figure 2). Within the northern grid, a 700 by 300 m multi-element soil anomaly (Zn, Ag, As, and Pb) has been identified. This anomaly is open to the north. The east-west trending, multi-element anomaly along Bob Creek (Figure 2) is interpreted to have been transported and therefore limited significance is placed on the anomaly.

Geophysical Survey
A 20 line-km IP geophysical survey has now commenced. This north-south oriented survey consists of nine lines spaced 200 m apart (Figure 2). The survey footprint covers the Buck breccia complex as well as the recently defined soil-anomaly at the Buck North zone. This survey will have a significantly deeper depth of investigation compared to historical 1980’s-vintage surveys and the data will be used to refine the current exploration model.
Health and Safety
The Company’s exploration programs are being carried out in full compliance with federal, provincial, and municipal guidelines established in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic. San Marco has a rigorous infection prevention and control protocol in place to protect the health of employees, contractors, as well as surrounding communities in which we work.
Quality Assurance
All sample assay results have been monitored through a quality assurance / quality control (QA/QC) program. Samples were shipped in sealed and secure bags to the ALS Global laboratory in North Vancouver, B.C. for analysis. Samples were prepared using standard preparation procedures. Soil samples were analyzed for 53 elements by ICP-MS on a 25 gram sample using an aqua regia digestion (method AuME-ST43). Rock samples were analyzed for 48 elements by ICP-MS on a 0.25 gram sample using a four acid digestion (method ME-MS61L). Gold was analyzed by fire assay with an AAS finish (method Au-AA23). Over limit gold (>10 ppm) was re-analyzed by fire assay using a gravimetric finish. Over limit silver (>100 ppm) was re-analyzed using a four acid digestion and ICP-AES finish. Over limit zinc (> 10,000 ppm) was re-analysed using a four acid digestions and ICP-AES finish. ALS Global is registered to ISO / IEC 17025:2017 accreditations for laboratory procedures.

Newlox To Re-Start Gold Production
Newlox Gold Ventures Corp. (“Newlox” or the “Company”) (CSE:LUX ) (CNSX:LUX.CN) ( Frankfurt: NGO) is pleased to announce that it is implementing its plan to re-start gold production at its environmental remediation and precious metals production facility in Costa Rica (Plant 1).
Gold production operations at Plant 1 were suspended earlier in 2020 following an alarming increase in COVID-19 infections in Costa Rica. Management has since then been working closely with local stakeholders to develop a plan to both re-start gold production and enhance the Company’s operational capabilities.
Given the necessary summer-long pause of operations, management elected to disassemble, move and re-assemble Plant 1 at its newly acquired nearby location adjacent to the Company’s recently announced Boston Project (Plant 2). The new larger site allows for a future increase in the project scale. It also accommodates both the Company’s enhanced laboratory and basecamp and is closer to the artisanal mines and sources of tailings feedstock.
The new location reduces transportation costs, enhances project logistics, facilitates production growth, and increases site security. Additionally, the new location is outside of the local municipal limits, reducing COVID-19 related concerns and enhancing the safety of personnel.
The re-assembled Plant 1 benefits from the robust infrastructure enjoyed at the previous location while adding significant advantages. It is accessible by municipally maintained roads, is connected to renewably sourced grid electricity, and is easily accessible for local emergency services.
Newlox has made significant progress in re-locating Plant 1. Site stability analysis, archeological studies, and environmental studies were completed, and building permits issued. Re-assembly of the plant is well underway. Management expects to re-start gold production in early-October.
Once re-started, Newlox will immediately begin ramping-up operations at the first processing plant. At full-scale operation, Plant 1 will be capable of processing 80 tonnes per day of material grading +9 grams per tonne gold with an anticipated gold recovery of approximately 90%.
A Message from Ryan Jackson, President & CEO:
“This year, we have all faced unforeseeable challenges, and we have been called on to adapt to the changing landscape as we continue to progress and meet new challenges.
We at Newlox determined that our strategy would be adaptability and decisive action.
Although there was no way to predict the trajectory of COVID-19 in Costa Rica, our management team decided to take advantage of the unscheduled shutdown to execute our long-standing plan to move the first proof of concept processing plant to a more favourable permanent location, to support the Company’s longer-term growth objective. The overall plan is approved by the regulators, allowing us to re-start gold production at Plant 1 very soon.
We are excited to re-start the ramp-up of gold production at the first processing plant and have set a goal to achieve full-scale productivity in the first quarter of 2021. Newlox Gold is also progressing at its recently announced Boston Project (Plant 2), where development work is already underway.
Management looks forward to adding strong production growth at Boston (Plant 2), which we expect to begin production as Project 1 achieves full-scale operation. Newlox Gold also has multiple expansion projects in due-diligence, and we expect to announce our third project early next year.”
