• FuelPositive’s modular system uses 30% less energy than conventional grey ammonia (“NH3”) production processes
• The company’s system produces green ammonia from water, air, and sustainable electricity, and solves the supply puzzle highlighted in an IEEE Spectrum article
• Green Ammonia is gaining favor in the global shipping industry, where stakeholders agreed in 2018 to halve 2008 CO2 emissions levels by 2050

A document leak reported by BBC News in the runup to the United Nations Climate Change Conference (“COP26”) showed divided opinions around climate change, with countries trying to change the most recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (“IPCC”) report. A UN body mandated with investigating the science of climate change, the IPCC releases assessment reports every six to seven years, the latest of which was meant to offer vital input to negotiations at the COP26, which was held in Glasgow, Scotland, from October 31 through November 12. The leak revealed countries, such as Saudi Arabia (one of the largest oil producers), Australia (a major coal exporter), and Japan, are urging the UN to play down the need to replace fossil fuels, arguing that the world does not need to reduce the use of this carbon-emitting source of energy as quickly as the IPCC draft report had recommended (https://ibn.fm/wRTnJ). Fossil fuels – natural gas, oil, and coal – currently supply roughly 80% of the world’s energy (https://ibn.fm/dSbPh). As a result, they drive economies such as Saudi Arabia’s and Australia’s and whole sectors such as maritime transport, but always at the expense of the environment. According to the IPCC, the combustion of fossil fuels contributes 85% of CO2 emissions (https://ibn.fm/OQoMW). The Global Carbon Project separately estimates that fossil emissions will top 36.4 billion tons of CO2, down a mere 0.8% from pre-pandemic levels of 36.7 billion tons in 2019 (https://ibn.fm/yvTzZ). Of these numbers, fossil-fuel-reliant maritime shipping contributes about 3%, according to the International Maritime Organization (“IMO”), a UN body tasked with regulating the industry. In 2018, stakeholders in the industry agreed to halve 2008 emission levels by 2050, and as a February IEEE Spectrum article report notes, “meeting that target will require swift and widespread development of diesel-fuel alternatives and new design for freighters, tankers, and container ships” (https://ibn.fm/hQFXZ). The article, which offers detailed evaluations of the available options, cites and explores green ammonia (“NH3”) as a diesel alternative gaining favor in the global shipping industry. The reasons given for this are that ammonia is a colorless fuel that emits no carbon dioxide when burned. Moreover, it can be made using renewable energy, air, and water, and both internal combustion engines and fuel cells can use it. “Shipowners and industry analysts say they expect ammonia to play a pivotal role in decarbonizing cargo ships. But there’s a crucial caveat: No vessels of any size today are equipped to use the fuel. Even if they were, the supply of renewable, or ‘green’ ammonia produced using carbon-neutral methods is virtually nonexistent,” the article continues. While the supply of green ammonia production using carbon-neutral methods may have been nonexistent at the time IEEE Spectrum published the article, this is no longer the case thanks to efforts by FuelPositive (TSX.V: NHHH) (OTCQB: NHHHF), a company committed to clean energy solutions such as green NH3 for use in various applications. FuelPositive’s flagship offering, which is currently under development with National Compressed Air Canada, is a patent-pending modular, scalable solution that produces green ammonia from water, air, and sustainable electricity. The first prototype system is slated for deployment in a demonstration pilot project in the summer of 2022. This solution solves several concerns highlighted in the IEEE Spectrum article relating to conventional ammonia production. Traditionally produced (“grey”) ammonia is made via the Haber-Bosch process, an energy-intensive process that requires high temperature (roughly 500°C) and pressure (20-40 MPa). This process accounts for 500 million metric tons or 1.8% of the global CO2 emissions from human activities. Notably, however, these figures do not consider emissions from hydrogen production, which itself is equally energy-intensive and emits carbon monoxide and small quantities of carbon dioxide. This means overall emissions are considerably higher. FuelPositive’s system solves the emissions problem associated with hydrogen production by using electrolyzers that split water molecules into oxygen and hydrogen. The system, which is also equipped with a proprietary reactor, then combines nitrogen from the air with hydrogen in a process that requires lower temperature and pressure than Haber-Bosch. As a result, FuelPositive says, its system requires less energy than conventional grey ammonia production processes, with no carbon emissions. In addition, the end product of green anhydrous ammonia is about 40% cheaper to an end user based off a Manitoba, Canada case study (https://ibn.fm/8f3VB). With multiple uses such as powering maritime shipping and the transport sector in general, eliminating fertilizer-related carbon emissions in the agriculture sector, and offering long-term storage of excess electricity for energy grids, FuelPositive is the solution proponents of measures to curb climate change seek/need.

• Mineral property exploration company StraightUp Resources is in an expansive stage, adding significant site acquisition rights in the United States and Peru to its Canadian portfolio and expanding its stock trading from Canada to the United States markets
• StraightUp recently announced that it is improving access to its U.S. stock on the OTCQB Venture Market by achieving eligibility for electronic clearing and settlement of its transactions through the Depository Trust Company
• StraightUp holds rights to five properties in Ontario’s prolific Red Lake greenstone belt, has acquired a mining property and its resources in western Nevada, and has an option to acquire a significant mining opportunity in Peru
• The company recently completed structural interpretation of investigations at one of the Ontario sites, confirming multiple areas of high merit and potential mineralization on a greenstone belt property that has not previously experienced a single drill hole

Precious metals explorer StraightUp Resources (CSE: ST) (OTCQB: STUPF) has cleared a hurdle that elevates its ability to trade shares of its common stock in the United States, announcing Dec. 1 that the company has achieved eligibility for electronic clearing and settlement of its transactions through the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”). DTC eligibility “reduces costs and accelerates the settlement process for investors and brokers, allowing the Company’s common shares to be traded over a much wider selection of brokerage firms,” a company news release states (https://ibn.fm/jATkt). “I expect our shareholders to benefit from the liquidity and ease at which shares can now be electronically transferred between U.S. brokerages, at a lower cost and greater efficiency,” StraightUp President and CEO Mark Brezer stated. StraightUp completed an uplisting to the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol STUPF last month, joining U.S. market coverage to its Canadian Securities Exchange listing under the symbol ST (https://ibn.fm/kEEcG). The company has expanded its access to potential assets this year, building a portfolio that includes options for five anticipated gold properties in Ontario, Canada’s well-known greenstone belt, acquisition of an existing gold and silver mine in the western United States, and an opportunity to acquire a silver mine and processing plant in the Lima region of Peru. Most of the company’s development work thus far has centered on the properties in eastern Canada. The Red Lake district where the RLX North, RLX South, Belanger Red Lake, Bear Head and Ferdinand gold properties are centered is part of a region considered one of Canada’s most prolific gold mining districts, with a history of producing over 30 million ounces of the precious metal. The company has completed high-resolution heli-borne magnetic surveys (“MAGs”) on some of the properties in preparation for drill programs there, and reported Nov. 29 that structural interpretation of the airborne survey and subsequent ground investigation on the Ferdinand Gold Project yielded confirmation of multiple areas of high merit and potential mineralization on the 7,143-hectare (17,651-acre) site (https://ibn.fm/c31p9). Ferdinand is noteworthy in the sense that, unlike the other four Ontario properties, it has not had a single registered drill hole despite its location at a boundary of the productive Uchi Subprovince, one of the most metal-rich greenstone belts in the world by square kilometer, according to StraightUp (https://ibn.fm/NwGRF). “We now have confirmation of D2 folding and ultramafic rocks, together considered to be a primary control for high-grade gold mineralization in this region, especially the Great Bear Resources Dixie Lake Gold Project,” Brezer stated. “This study represents a transformation of the Ferdinand Gold Project, and we couldn’t be more excited about the road ahead in this unexplored and unappreciated section of the infamous Uchi subprovince.” StraightUp has the right to acquire 100 percent interest in the property’s 17 contiguous mining claims located 120 km (74.5 miles) east of Red Lake, Ontario. Orix Geosciences compiled the data on the site investigation. StraightUp is also working to complete airborne and ground investigation of the RLX North and RLX South sites, which are the company’s largest properties at about 10,000 hectares (25,000 acres).

• Point-of-care-testing offers numerous benefits, including faster results, lower costs, improved monitoring and medication adherence, and more
• It is set to disrupt the clinical chemistry field, promoting a shift to a more decentralized testing approach
• Avricore is taking part in this disruption through its POCT platform, HealthTab, found at select community pharmacies
• HealthTab combines point-of-care analyzers that screen for over 20 biomarkers with a consumer-facing interface that displays results

Point-of-care testing (“POCT”), experts say, is set to disrupt the clinical chemistry field, with further development in this area facilitating expanded delivery of healthcare to resource-poor environments, providing better tools for monitoring chronic diseases, and allowing for routine health monitoring for health-conscious individuals (https://ibn.fm/23YkL). This disruption is contributing to a gradual shift from the traditional, more centralized testing approach in laboratories to a more decentralized system anchored in mobile communications and miniaturized diagnostic instruments. And, as an Abbott article notes (https://ibn.fm/k2Nvh), this has brought with it several benefits. “POCT is more convenient compared with traditional laboratory testing and has been shown to increase patient satisfaction. As a monitoring or screening tool, it can be used to support health screenings in those at risk of cardiovascular disease (‘CVD’) and improve patient compliance with testing frequency. There is now overwhelming evidence that POCT can offer significant strengthening of diagnostic precision of clinicians in a wide variety of areas,” the article, published in the 19th issue of Health Europa Quarterly, reads. The article further observes that “POCT contributes to faster results for physicians, greater flexibility for physicians and patients, lower costs, improved medication adherence, and reduced antibiotics prescribing.” Thanks to the vision and efforts of Avricore Health (TSX.V: AVCR) (OTCQB: AVCRF), a health diagnostics solutions provider, an ever-expanding population of consumers around Canada can now enjoy these benefits. Avricore’s flagship offering, HealthTab(TM), pairs point-of-care analyzers – manufactured by partners such as the above-mentioned article’s author, Abbott – with a secure, cloud-based network to create a robust turnkey POCT platform that has a consumer-facing interface and is domiciled in community pharmacies. The analyzers screen for more than 20 biomarkers associated with select chronic and infectious diseases and communicate them in real-time with patients and trained health care professionals. In a November 23 announcement, Avricore celebrated the signing of a distribution agreement with Abbott that expanded its platform’s capabilities to better support patients with vital information about their renal function (https://ibn.fm/rb5Wa). “Understanding renal function in patients at risk from or already living with chronic disease is critical,” said Avricore CEO Hector Bremner. “With i-STAT Alinity and its associated test for creatinine, healthcare professionals can obtain results in approximately two minutes to detect elevated levels of creatinine that are associated with abnormal renal function.” The company has also made significant progress in taking its services closer to even more patients. Since signing a Master Agreement to pilot its HealthTab platform in select Shoppers Drug Mart pharmacies in Ontario earlier this year, Avricore has rolled out its platform in additional locations, with the most recent move being expansion into British Columbia. Avricore is guided by the vision to create the world’s largest testing network in community pharmacies. It seeks to make actionable health insights more accessible for everyone, including researchers and drug makers seeking de-identified patient data for their clinical studies.

• Robert Rositano Jr.’s recent appearance on the popular Hellblazer Biz Podcast highlighted the growth of Friendable’s Fan Pass Live artist platform, and what it offers to both artists and fans
• The Rositano brothers have been business partners for over 30 years and have always been interested in the music industry, coming up with the Fan Pass concept early in the 2000s and building it to its current position in the music industry
• Friendable’s flagship product has seen exceptional growth since its release in July 2020; growing from only 16 signed artists to a current total of over 6,000
• More than just a streaming platform, Fan Pass is becoming a lifestyle, as artists use the platform to share their everyday lives and perform as well as earn, with additional features becoming available for both artists and fans

From humble beginnings in July 2020, with only 16 artists on the platform, the Fan Pass Live artist platform has proven it has what it takes, going into 2022 with over 6,000 artists and fans subscribing monthly. The rapid growth of the platform, along with its most recent updates and mobile app, as well as the road ahead, were the main topics discussed by mobile technology and marketing company Friendable (OTC: FDBL) CEO and Co-Founder Robert Rositano Jr. with Chris Gordon, the host of Hellblazer Biz Podcast (https://ibn.fm/sfNTV). For almost 30 years now, the Rositano brothers (Robert Jr. and Dean) have been working together as business partners, sharing a passion for the music industry that mostly stems from Dean’s time touring and performing, even as a teenager. In the early 2000s, the brothers worked with a major industry name to produce a new venture/revenue stream for independent artists. Together with the help of Herbie Herbert and his partner Bill Graham and their recording studio, the brothers would record artists and invite friends, family, and fans to go online and vote for their favorite groups, purchase merchandise, and more. This venture was what brought about the birth of the Fan Pass Live artist platform. Over the years, technological advancements have made the Rositano brothers’ idea from the early 2000s more conducive. Advanced hardware and mobile technology aside, Wi-Fi was a major driver of industry progress, given that wireless connections allow continuous consumption of content, music in particular, Rositano said. Both Gordon and Rositano underlined that one of the key advantages the Fan Pass platform primarily offers is more freedom and control to artists. “We were trying to elevate the careers of these indie artists by not only giving them exposure, but a way to earn, utilizing the internet,” Rositano said. “It’s really always been about entertainment, music, educating – whether it’s an artist or a fan – and trying to provide technology and services that allow them to do that and have freedom and control.” And this key concept is the cornerstone of the Fan Pass offering nowadays. The platform offers artists multiple ways to reach fans and earn revenue on their own terms. A great solution for independent artists who don’t want to sign with a record label, Fan Pass Live is more than just a streaming platform — it can be equated to a lifestyle, as artists can share their everyday lives there, Rositano said. “They can perform, they can earn. And earning comes in several forms on our website and our mobile apps. We create merchandise, we share revenue, dropship through them, they can sell tickets to a live performance, schedule the event, and our teams are there to help them design and promote,” the Friendable CEO explained. “There are several different things that we offer and many more to come, and it’s exciting to have artists and fans really embracing the platform as we really get on our feet and start expanding our services.” Gordon called Fan Pass a Fan App, which Rositano confirmed to be synonymous. Fans can be hindered geographically, unable to see artists in venues or on stage, but Fan Pass puts them in the front row for only $2.99 per month (after the free trial). With many subscription-based services, the parent company is the beneficiary – not with Fan Pass – up to 40% of the monthly subscription goes back into the pockets of the performers that the fans love and follow each day. With more artists looking to represent themselves or gain control of their music, Fan Pass’s freedom allows artists to earn revenue while doing what they love. The Rositano brothers want artists to succeed and one way to support them in attaining this goal is by organizing monthly contests on the Fan Pass platform, typically shared, and announced on the company’s Instagram feed. The contest for the month of December, titled “Enter to Win”, will reward participating artists who sell the most tickets to ticketed streaming events during the month. The prizes for this contest include a $500 cash prize for first, $250 cash prize for second, and $150 cash for third place. A $30 bonus will be up for grabs as well. Any artist who promotes three ticketed events on IG with the tag @fanpasslive can get the additional $30. All artists participating come out winners during the contest, keeping 100% of their ticket sales and guidance on how to set up these events from Fan Pass live experts. Fans can also keep a lookout for the new winter apparel line that will be coming out soon and be available in the platform’s store. Fan Pass is available for mobile download on Google Play and the Apple Store. “We are really pushing the boundary on the freedom for artists to control their music,” Rositano Jr. underlined during the Hellblazer Biz Podcast. “Stay tuned as we are in the final stages of finalizing independent music distribution services, play listing and other services that will truly elevate the game of all our indie artists’ ability to succeed.” For more information, visit the company’s websites at www.Friendable.com or www.FanPassLive.com.
