• CEO Warren Wang discussed time with CIIX
• Spin-off of CBD, hemp products nearing completion
• CIIX went from nearly bankrupt to becoming publicly traded; Wang invested directly and looks forward to a promising future

CEO Warren Wang of ChineseInvestors.com Inc. (OTCQB: CIIX) recently shared, on MoneyTV with Donald Baillargeon, his journey with the company since its founding in 1999 and his commitment to continually building success for decades to come. The full interview can be found at www.MoneyTV.net under past shows.

In addition to providing a brief update on where the company’s spin-off for CBD Biotech stands, Wang shared the company’s growth and progress over the last 20 years. Once on the brink of bankruptcy, CIIX is now a successful publicly traded company in the process of writing a Form F-1 for a potential uplisting to the Nasdaq.

CBD Biotech is a wholly owned CIIX subsidiary, and its proposed spin-off is expected to allow ChineseInvestors.com to return to its original platform of developing proprietary financial news media and content targeting the global Chinese-speaking community. The spin-off includes the appointment of CFO Alex Hamilton, whose primary focus is on providing CBD-related products to China’s mainland population (http://ibn.fm/eHVNT). The spin-off is nearing completion, as it now has legal counsel and a broker dealer, and CBD Biotech is close to finalizing with an auditing firm and forming a board of directors.

After a brief update on where CBD Biotech and CIIX are headed, Wang focused on how far the company has come. Wang has been with the company since its beginning in 1999. He noted that in its early years, CIIX had troubled times, facing bankruptcy as shares were diluted by investors from over 60 percent down to 10 percent. Since then, Wang has led the company back to its current solid position, investing directly in it himself on the open market.

Per the interview, Wang prides himself on his loyalty and dedication to CIIX and is looking forward to spending the next 10 to 20 years with the company.

• Recent dam failure and closure of 11 mines by leading iron ore producer Vale lowered supplies worldwide, raising prices
• Black Iron is developing the Shymanivske iron ore deposit in Ukraine to produce cost-effective, high grade pellet feed containing 68 percent iron
• Black Iron’s iron pellet feed product is expected to sell for a significantly higher price than benchmark iron ore for at least the next two to three years

Recent supply-side shortages and the resulting tightness in the world’s iron ore market are seen as solid reasons for investors to keep a close eye on Canadian iron ore exploration and development company Black Iron Inc. (TSX: BKI) (OTC: BKIRF) (GR: BIN) as it brings its premium, high-grade iron ore Shymanivske Ukraine project to life. Black Iron’s Shymanivske project is situated in the southern part of the historic KrivBass iron ore mining district, a highly developed iron ore mining region with well-established infrastructure and nearby skilled labor forces. Surrounded by five producing iron ore mines, the Shymanivske project is expected to produce an ultra-high-grade, 68-percent iron ore concentrate with few impurities at very low cost (http://ibn.fm/6MXdh).

The January 25 disaster at the tailings dam at Vale SA’s Corrego do Feijao iron ore mine in Brazil’s mining heartland of Minas Gerais remains in the news as officials search for the missing and tally up the dead. Since the initial incident, involving Vale’s second-largest iron ore mine, Vale, the world’s top producer of iron ore, has announced supply cuts of up to 70 million tons, leading to a steep rise in benchmark spot prices, according to an article on Mining.com (http://ibn.fm/QpMuc). Many iron ore mining companies have also experienced a significant increase in share prices.

Brazil’s government on February 18 banned new upstream mining dams and ordered the decommissioning of all such dams by 2021, targeting the type of structure that burst last month, killing hundreds of people. Iron ore prices are expected to remain high for some time, with the market still focused on the impact of the loss of some supply from Brazil, as Reuters noted in a February 18 article (http://ibn.fm/ozFuE).

Black Iron recently reaffirmed economic projections for its Shymanivske project in a news release (http://ibn.fm/YDhyc), noting that the premium 68 percent iron pellet feed product that Black Iron plans to produce is expected to sell for a significantly higher price than benchmark iron ore for at least the next two to three years. The company intends to build its Shymanivske project in two phases, taking advantage of its proximity to rail, power, ports and skilled labor to reduce the upfront capital and time required to generate cash flow (http://ibn.fm/ItKdF).

A capital investment of $436 million is required for the first phase of the Shymanivske project, which is expected to produce four million tonnes per year. An additional $312 million is required to double the production capacity of the Shymanivske project to eight million tonnes per year, and this could potentially be fully funded from the free cash generated by phase 1 production. Iron ore concentrate is one of the key resources required by the steel industry. Black Iron’s concentrate can be used both in sinter and highly valued pellet production. Prior to the latest Brazilian development, there was already a shortage of pellet feed. The supply/demand gap is set at 133Mt against the current base of approximately 400Mt consumed by 2035. According to Zion Market Research, the global iron ore pellet market was valued at $25.22 billion in 2017 and is expected to reach $50.12 billion by 2024 (http://ibn.fm/zJN4o).

The technical and scientific contents of this article have been prepared under the supervision of and have been reviewed and approved by Matt Simpson, P.Eng., CEO of Black Iron, who is a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.

• BriaCell Therapeutics Corp. will reveal important information about Bria-IMT and Bria-OTS at two leading conferences – the ASCO-SITC Clinical Immuno-Oncology Symposium and the American Association of Cancer Research’s annual meeting
• New information will also be made available about the company’s HLA-identification test, BriaDX, which is aimed at identifying patients most likely to benefit from Bria-IMT
• In addition, BriaCell founder and director Dr. Charles L. Wiseman will be a keynote speaker at the 10th Euro Breast Cancer Summit in France

BriaCell Therapeutics Corp. (OTCQB: BCTXF) (TSX.V: BCT), a biotechnology company with a focus on immune-oncology, is expected to announce findings pertaining to the effectiveness and mode of action of its lead product candidate – Bria-IMT – at the 2019 ASCO-SITC Clinical Immuno-Oncology Symposium, according to a company press release (http://ibn.fm/eH3P5). The key oncology conference will be taking place from February 28 to March 2, 2019, in San Francisco.

The company was selected to present a poster highlighting the latest findings related to the mechanism of action of Bria-IMT – an immunotherapy solution for patients with advanced breast cancer. BriaCell Therapeutics Corp. will also present information regarding BriaDX, the companion diagnostic test that aims to identify the patient groups anticipated to benefit the most from the treatment. In addition, BriaCell will provide the latest information about its personalized, off-the-shelf immunotherapy solution called Bria-OTS.

Following the presentation at the symposium, BriaCell will post a copy of the poster on BriaCell.com/Investor-Relations/Presentations.

The company has also announced that BriaCell founder and director Dr. Charles L. Wiseman will be a keynote speaker at the 10th Euro Breast Cancer Summit to take place in Paris on March 21-22, 2019. This year’s summit theme is going to be “Rediscovering Novel Approaches towards Cure for Breast Cancer and Women’s Health.”

Finally, BriaCell Therapeutics will present a poster at the highly prestigious American Association of Cancer Research’s (“AACR”) annual meeting that will take place from March 29 to April 3, 2019, in Atlanta, Georgia.

BriaCell has completed a 23-subject phase I/IIa trial of Bria-IMT in patients with advanced breast cancer. Significant tumor regression was observed in patients who matched Bria-IMT at human leukocyte antigen (“HLA”) types. During the ASCO-SITC Clinical Immuno-Oncology Symposium, BriaCell is set to detail these findings and provide an analysis of immunologic factors (HLA matching is currently being evaluated as a factor for predicting the tumor response in breast cancer patients treated with a combination of Bria-IMT and KEYTRUDA).

During the Atlanta conference, BriaCell Therapeutics Corp. is expected to provide additional information about the Bria-IMT mechanism of action. This type of data is derived from molecular and clinical findings, both supporting the development of Bria-OTS.

Bria-OTS is similar to Bria-IMT, because it also consists of a set of cell lines. The main difference is that Bria-OTS will be engineered to produce different HLA types to match individual patients. Bria-OTS is anticipated to produce an increased response rate due to HLA matching in comparison to unmatched therapeutic approaches.

The personalized off-the-shelf immunotherapy solution is still in the development phase. There are plans for Bria-OTS to enter the clinic later in 2019.

BriaCell Therapeutics Corp. is an immuno-oncology-focused biotech company that develops both targeted and safe cancer management approaches. The company’s lead candidate, Bria-IMT, has so far demonstrated substantial ability to provoke tumor shrinkage with excellent tolerability. Bria-OTS is anticipated to come at a lower production cost and have fewer side effects than comparable personalized immunotherapies.

• The cannabis industry is currently a $10 billion market and is expected to increase its economic vitality in coming years
• Cannabis Strategic Ventures recently acquired Worldwide Staffing Group, which works within the company as a wholly and separately owned subsidiary, adding to its staffing capabilities
• An increased demand for staffing within the burgeoning cannabis industry could prove beneficial for Cannabis Strategic Ventures’ influence in the market

Cannabis Strategic Ventures Inc. (OTC: NUGS), a publicly traded corporation that cultivates and partners with brands around the world to build category leaders within the cannabis and CBD marketplace, is utilizing a diverse approach to create profitable opportunities across all corners of the market. While primarily outsourcing personnel solutions, the company also seeks investment opportunities in real estate, cultivation, extraction, distribution, packaging, dispensary operations and branded products within the cannabis marketplace.

The future of cannabis is booming, and the $10 billion industry is attracting businesses of all types. Companies ranging in products and services from energy efficiency technology to health and wellness are trying to create inroads into this lucrative market, which has yet to meet its demand. Cannabis Strategic Ventures has multiple irons in this fire, each well-positioned to take advantage of this opportune time in the cannabis and hemp industry.

Primarily, the company is focused on supporting the growth of entrepreneurs in this industry. It has made strategic acquisitions, in turn offering outsourced personnel solutions informed by the latest growth trends in the cannabis market. Cannabis Strategic Ventures supports all members of the cannabis market, including cultivators, manufacturers and dispensaries. The company offers mentorship and other important services to young and existing cannabis brands seeking to find staying power in the industry.

Most notably, Worldwide Staffing Group, a separate wholly owned subsidiary, works within Cannabis Strategic Ventures to provide non-cannabis-related employment and staffing services. The latter company aims to continue growing its business operations further into the cannabis staffing area, especially focusing on the California markets, where adult recreational cannabis use has been legalized.

This legislation has been estimated to create nearly 99,000 cannabis industry jobs in the state by 2021, which will represent a third of all cannabis jobs nationwide, according to Arcview Market Research. Additionally, worldwide consumer spending on legal cannabis (http://ibn.fm/t0l3j) is “projected to reach $57 billion by 2027, with adult-use cannabis making up the majority of spending at $38.3 billion.” Cannabis Strategic Ventures believes that this demand for staffing in the industry will work in its favor, and its acquisition of Worldwide Staffing Group, which logged approximately $1.5 million in 2017 revenues, only amplifies its robust industry presence.

• Unique business model and positioning as a licensed producer and technology company have created a distinct advantage
• Potential for the natural, water-soluble cannabis beverage to become a game changer for the industry
• Control of dosing placed into consumers’ hands

Sproutly Canada Inc. (OTCQB: SRUTF) (CSE: SPR) (FRA: 38G) CEO Keith Dolo sat down with NetworkNewsAudio to share the company’s vision of becoming the leading supplier to the cannabis beverage and edibles market. Dolo believes that the company’s unique business model and positioning as a licensed producer and technology company have created a distinct advantage for Sproutly. To listen to the full interview, visit http://ibn.fm/GrF5x.

Sproutly’s leadership team has decades’ worth of experience in biopharmaceutical research and development, technology commercialization and business development. Various members contribute in-depth knowledge of growing, well-known Fortune 200 and 500 companies, as well as experience in the North American and international CBD and beverage industries.

The current Canadian cannabis market alone is projected to reach $8.7 billion by the year 2024, with the Canadian cannabis market projected to hit between $0.9 billion and $4.4 billion. The company sees potential for the beverage market to hit even greater heights with the introduction of naturally water-soluble cannabis beverages.

The company owns exclusive rights to Infusion Biosciences’ APP technology in Canada, Australia, Israel, Jamaica and the EU. Combined with its facility’s capabilities of producing up to 1,400 kg of consistent, high-quality, pharma-grade cannabis per year, the company is well on its way toward seeing the fulfillment of its vision to be the leading supplier to the cannabis beverage market.

The recent acquisition of Infusion Biosciences placed a revolutionary technology into Sproutly’s hands. Dolo describes the company’s premium offerings as “the world’s first and only, truly water-soluble cannabis solution and bio-natural oils.”

The technology places control of dosing into the consumers’ hands. The bio-availability of the product, as well as the lingering effects, are shortened. Rather than the standard 45 to 120 minutes of previous products, this new water-soluble solution takes effect in only five minutes. While current products on the market can have lingering effects lasting anywhere from four hours to two days, Sproutly’s premium product lasts between 60 and 90 minutes. The company’s beverage, Infuz20, offers predictable effects that are comparable to smoking and vaping, while also providing an odorless, smokeless and versatile product with precise dosing.

Sproutly plans to internationally expand the target market of its products in 2019. Distribution agreements are being pursued in the Caribbean, Canada, Jamaica, Israel, Australia and the EU.

• SinglePoint and other leading cannabis companies are entering the promising and highly competitive CBD pet product market
• Company, via SingleSeed subsidiary, recently launched PHYTO-BITES soft CBD chews for pets – dogs, in particular – to help them deal with stress, inflammation and separation anxiety
• The CBD pet product market is expected to be one of the most rapidly growing industry sectors, expanding at a CAGR of 57 percent by 2022

The CBD market is growing constantly, across different verticals and niches that are presenting new opportunities for expansion to companies in the sector. One of the fastest growing niches is the CBD pet market, according to leading investor news resource for hemp and cannabis stocks InvestorIdeas.com. In the first installment of a two-part analysis of the CBD pet market, Investorideas.com notes that this fat expansion comes with numerous opportunities for established cannabis and CBD enterprises that are already active on the market.

SinglePoint Inc. (OTCQB: SING) is one these organizations, alongside other leading cannabis and hemp companies such as Canopy Growth Corporation (TSX: WEED) (NYSE: CGC), Charlotte’s Web Holdings Inc. (CSE: CWEB) (OTCQX: CWBHF) and CannTrust Holdings Inc. (TSX: TRST). All of these companies have already launched or are currently developing animal health products based on CBD, mostly targeting stress and anxiety-related conditions in pets.

In January 2019, SinglePoint launched PHYTO-BITES via subsidiary SingleSeed.com. PHYTO-BITES are CBD soft chews formulated to promote health and support the reduction of separation anxiety, stress, pain and inflammation in pets – dogs, in particular. Dogs make up the largest part of the U.S. pet market, according to GrandView research, and SinglePoint plans to take advantage of the market size and penetration potential by making PHYTO-BITES one of its leading products.

“We are very excited to add this to our list of products. The pet market is a tremendous opportunity and we plan to attend and use all our contacts to promote this product at every opportunity we are presented with,” SinglePoint CEO Greg Lambrecht said in a news release.

PHYTO-BITES are manufactured and supplied by CBD Unlimited, formerly known as Endexx. CBD Unlimited and SingleSeed are working together to distribute the product online, as well as in stores across the U.S.

Several factors are contributing to the emergence of this new niche on the CBD market, Investorideas.com writes.

For a start, the regulatory framework is changing. In addition, pet owners are becoming more aware of CBD products and the health benefits they bring to the table. As a result, market analysts predict that the CBD pet product niche will become much more competitive in the near future.

Americans are known to spend a significant amount on the acquisition of pet products. As of 2018, the market volume was over $72 billion, according to the American Pet Products Association (http://ibn.fm/0IoMy).

CBD oil has already made its way into this vast industry. Various companies are manufacturing foods and supplements for pets that feature the ingredient. According to statistics, CBD oil products for pets currently represent $7 million out of the $6 billion of weed dispensary sales in California, Colorado, Washington and Oregon (http://ibn.fm/RTve1).

Reports suggest that CBD can produce a range of benefits for pets – from anxiety reduction to improving appetite, controlling allergies and addressing skin problems. CBD products are also believed to help with pain reduction in older pets suffering from arthritis.

In 2017, the sales of hemp-derived pet and animal products in the U.S. reached $13 million out of a CBD market valued at $177 million, according to New Frontier Data (http://ibn.fm/kjyMf). Market volume is expected to reach $125 million by 2022 (of a $522 million CBD market), growing at a CAGR of 57 percent. This growth rate makes the CBD pet product market one of the fastest growing niches of the hemp-derived product space.

Currently, the vast majority of CBD products address the needs of dog and cat owners. In the near future, however, more opportunities are expected to become available for equine and other domestic animals.

SinglePoint is a technology and investment company with a focus on acquiring businesses that could benefit from capital or technology integration. Its current portfolio consists of mobile payment, ancillary, cannabis services and blockchain solutions. Acquisitions in horizontal markets are allowing SinglePoint to build a rich and diversified portfolio.

• Prevalence of electric vehicles is increasing demand for lithium
• Significant increase in lithium price and demand is projected for the years beyond 2020
• Employing a more reliable extraction method, QMC Quantum Minerals is uniquely positioned to take advantage of these market dynamics

The demand for lithium from battery makers is anticipated to nearly double in the years up to 2027. The automobile industry is expected to play a huge role in driving demand, as the world makes an increasingly pronounced shift toward electric vehicles. Companies like QMC Quantum Minerals Corp. (OTC: QMCQF) (TSX.V: QMC) (FSE: 3LQ) are positioned to benefit from the opportunities created by these new market dynamics.

Demand for lithium stemming from lithium-ion battery manufacturers increased by 46 percent in 2017 and is anticipated to nearly double to 83 percent by 2027 (http://ibn.fm/WJN3d). A Roskill market outlook report says that “beyond 2021, the research firm expects lithium prices to rise above 2018 levels again as continued demand growth” will contribute to the depletion of the currently available resources. Prices in 2019 are expected to briefly fall back from 2018 levels, mainly due to oversupply, with a bottom floor of $11,000 per ton of battery grade lithium carbonate, but they are forecast to bounce back and surpass the rates reported last year. Lithium hydroxide prices have stayed steady at $15,000-$18,000 per ton.

Throughout 2018, car manufacturers have continued making announcements about the upcoming development and release of electric vehicle (“EV”) models. Experts anticipate that EV market penetration will grow from two percent in 2018 to approximately 15 percent in 2025 (http://ibn.fm/Wl6Qk).

Thus, the demand for lithium in 2019 alone is expected to increase 13.5 percent. Some analysts believe that 2019 is going to be a transition year for the lithium market, after which sustainable growth will follow over the next years, starting in 2020 or 2021.

This is good news for QMC Quantum Minerals Corp., a British Columbia-based company engaged in the business of acquisition, exploration and development of resource properties, with a focus on lithium extraction. QMC is currently exploring the Irgon Lithium Mine Project, a historically-productive lithium property, and, as exploration continues, the company sees great potential to expand the in-ground resource well above the current, historical resource estimate of 1.2 million tons at 1.51 percent Li2O.

The company is focusing on the development of a domestic source of lithium through the exploration of the Irgon Lithium Mine Project in southeastern Manitoba. This historic resource estimate on the property of 1.2 million tons of lithium oxide grading 1.51 percent is measured over a strike length of 365 meters and to a depth of 213 meters. QMC is working toward producing a current, NI 43-101-compatible resource estimate in the coming months. In addition, QMC has identified spodumene-bearing outcrops of pegmatite directly on strike with the Irgon Dike and up to 400 meters west of the current westernmost surface exposure of the Irgon Dike. If, as expected, this mineralization proves to be continuous, QMC intends to double the strike length of the Irgon Dike.

In January 2019, QMC announced the results of a mobile metal ion (“MMI”) soil geochemical orientation survey that was carried out over the Irgon Dike. The results identified the position of the unexposed portion of the western extension of the Irgon Dike and strongly suggested that there are two additional, buried lithium-bearing pegmatite targets – one located north and one south of the Irgon Dike. QMC plans to carry out exploration and subsequent drilling of these two new targets, which is anticipated to also significantly expand the historical lithium resource estimate for the Irgon Project.

QMC’s Irgon exploration focuses solidly on hard rock lithium mining. This method is considered to be more reliable than the brine evaporation technique upon which top market players like Chile and China are currently reliant.

• Supreme Cannabis’ financial and operational report speaks to the company’s ability to strategically maneuver the cannabis industry while maintaining high revenues
• The company’s wholly owned subsidiary, 7ACRES, was named ‘Brand of the Year’ at the 2018 Canadian Cannabis Awards
• Supreme Cannabis expects to reach full production capacity in 2019, in large part due to 7ACRES’ 440,000-square-foot facility in Ontario

The Supreme Cannabis Company Inc. (TSX: FIRE) (OTCQX: SPRWF) (FRA: 53S1), an established contender in Canada’s cannabis industry, recently released its 2019 financial and operational results for the period ended December 31, 2018. The report portrayed the company’s vitality, profitability and shrewdness.

Supreme Cannabis’ wholly owned licensed producer subsidiary, 7ACRES, had a noteworthy quarter. During the quarter, Supreme Cannabis made its first shipments of 7ACRES-branded high-end cannabis to six of Canada’s provincially regulated adult-use channels. Additionally, the company’s 7ACRES brand was named ‘Brand of the Year’ at the 2018 Canadian Cannabis Awards (http://ibn.fm/g0wpY).

As of early February 2019, 7ACRES has operated a 440,000-square-foot facility in Ontario. Supreme Cannabis sees this as a precursor to fervent growth in the upcoming year, predicting an increase in its annual production target. Estimates point toward the company’s ability to reach full production capacity, which would mark an increase from its current 17,500 kg to 50,000 kg.

The Q2 report also detailed Supreme Cannabis’ profitability. The company recorded a 359 percent increase in revenue from Q2 2018 ($1.68 million) to Q2 2019 ($7.72 million). The company has also been making moves to stay competitive within the cannabis oil products market, an industry which has been dubbed the next “gold rush” since the 2018 United States Farm Bill removed hemp from the list of controlled substances (http://ibn.fm/73VEk). Demand for hemp-derived CBD products continues to grow worldwide and is estimated to become a $22 billion industry by 2022. Staying ahead of the curve, Supreme Cannabis contracted Medipharm Labs Co. to help coordinate the launch of the company’s cannabis oil product line.

Moreover, Supreme Cannabis entered into an exclusive consulting services agreement with Khalifa Kush Enterprises LLC (“KKE”) with the goal of developing and launching a line of premium cannabis products. This product line (http://ibn.fm/pUK1x) is expected to include “pre-rolls, extracts, capsules, and cannabis oils to be sold by Supreme Cannabis under the KKE brand.”

Wiz Khalifa, principal of KKE, spoke highly of Supreme Cannabis in a news release, stating, “My team and I have spent the last year finding a partner that shares our vision, values, and passion for cannabis. The team at Supreme Cannabis understands the importance of high quality cannabis and how to produce [it] at scale.”

Thanks to its strategic partnerships and continued focus on award-winning brand quality, Supreme Cannabis is set to remain a fierce competitor in the cannabis industry.
