• SuperCom Ltd. has successfully introduced its suite of PureSecurity electronic monitoring products and services in several countries, including the United States
• America’s vast federal and lower court system is a particular factor for SuperCom because of the courts’ drive to consider alternatives to incarceration, providing non-violent offenders options for remaining out of overcrowded jails prior to trial or after sentencing
• SuperCom has successfully won and serviced a variety of new multi-year government client projects, showing the ongoing need for continually improving EM technology

Court systems everywhere, including the U.S., rely on probation and parole programs to help reduce the expense and staffing pressures associated with maintaining non-violent offenders behind bars (https://ibn.fm/tZB71).

An earlier report on the use of electronic monitoring (“EM”) in Los Angeles County, where EM is used as a cost-efficient way of keeping people out of jail, found that between 2015 and 2021, the number of people subject to EM before trial rocketed from 24 to 1,284 and that one major courthouse was choosing EM over standard alternative monitoring options in 92 percent of supervised release referrals (https://ibn.fm/pYX4K).

Citing a study by the nonprofit Vera Institute of Justice, the report also noted that between 2021 and 2022 there were an estimated half a million people in the criminal justice and civil immigration systems on some form of electronic monitoring in the United States, and that there was a five-fold increase in EM use nationwide (https://ibn.fm/Dz0yG).

SuperCom (NASDAQ: SPCB) is an EM technology company that has worked with clients in both Europe and the U.S., with a key focus on the United States court-administered supervised release programs that aim to reduce recidivism as well as demands on the U.S. incarceration system. EM is designed as a downward pressure on both.

SuperCom’s end-to-end suite of EM solutions includes state-of-the-art GPS tracking in real-time, secured communication, and other technologies. Their monitors can be worn discreetly, minimizing the likelihood that someone being supervised electronically may be stigmatized by peers or employers, encouraging a controlled return to the outside world.

The company’s recent detailed financial report showed revenues have more than doubled since 2021, with gross profits increasing and gross margin growing to 41.4 percent. In 2023, the company returned to “normal operations” in a context that significantly contrasts with the Covid-impacted years of 2021 and 2022.

Torr Metals (TSX.V: TMET) is excited about what it is seeing in new preliminary results from its Kolos Copper-Gold Project in British Columbia. Utilizing sophisticated geophysical techniques, the company has identified extensive anomalies stretching from mineralized outcrop at-surface to over 1.5 kilometers in depth, where there is strong potential for sub-surface extensions to copper and gold mineralization.

Advanced computer modeling (3D resistivity inversion voxel model) of a recently completed ZTEM geophysical survey pinpointed these fruitful drill targets across Torr’s 100% owned, 140-square-kilometer Kolos Copper-Gold Project. Excitement is particularly heightened against the backdrop of a strategic land position, as the Kolos project is located just 30 kilometers from Teck Resources’ Highland Valley, a copper and molybdenum operation and Canada’s largest open pit copper mine.

4 Key Findings at Kolos

1. Large-Scale Anomalies. The 3D resistivity inversions revealed multiple untested areas with potential for substantial porphyry deposits, particularly within the Lodi, Kirby, and Clapperton Zones where the geophysical anomalies are most robust. Two additional high-priority targets were identified in the Ace and Rea Zones, exhibiting characteristics of copper-gold porphyry-epithermal systems.
2. Strong Correlation with Surface Mineralization. The resistivity anomalies align closely with known zones of copper-gold and copper-molybdenum mineralization found at the surface in outcrop, a key characteristic that provides considerable de-risking in future drill targeting. This strengthens the case for the extension of mineralization deeper underground, providing the scalability for potential multiple new major porphyry discoveries.
3. Impressive Scale. The anomalous areas identified cover vast distances, exceeding 4.8 kilometers in strike length, while also connecting the Cu-Au Lodi and Kirby Zones at-depth. This is indicative of a cluster porphyry system suggestive of a highly fertile concentration of copper and gold mineralization at Kolos.
4. Expansion Potential. The promising geophysical signature at the Kirby and Clapperton Zones extends beyond the limits of the current soil sampling grid, indicating a possibility for further discoveries with additional exploration efforts.

Moving Forward

These findings provide Torr Metals with a clear roadmap for future exploration activities. Armed with precise data on the location and characteristics of the anomalies and a pending drill permit, the company can now plan targeted drilling campaigns with greater efficiency. “We are now identifying the robust plumbing behind these prolific mineralizing systems, indicating an immense scale of underlying potential,” said Malcolm Dorsey, Torr Metals President and CEO.

And this is just the beginning. With several untested zones spread across a 7-kilometer porphyry trend, the Kolos Project presents an enticing opportunity with the potential to uncover multiple new major copper-gold discoveries within Canada’s most prolific copper mining belt.

Strategic Location

Located close to Highland Valley is reason to increase bullishness about the potential for Kolos, but it has other benefits too. The project’s pre-existing road access to all high-priority targets and proximity to Highway 5 with all the requisite regional mining infrastructure adds further appeal. With year-round operation potential a successful discovery at Kolos could translate into a new mine, creating jobs and boosting the regional economy.

A Word on ZTEM

ZTEM geophysics has played a crucial role in these advancements. Think of it as acting like a powerful MRI machine, revealing metal-rich areas deep in the Earth. This advanced surveying method excels at identifying large-scale hydrothermal systems associated with porphyry deposits, as Kolos is.

Its ability to map intricate geological structures is invaluable for pinpointing potential mineralized zones, ultimately leading to a more targeted and successful exploration strategy. Up next for Torr Metals will be further surface exploration to expand on existing targets as well as drilling, pending permit approval, a development that frequently leads to rising valuations.

• Nickel demand is expected to double by 2030, creating a need for North America to ramp-up domestic supply
• Fathom Nickel explores Saskatchewan’s nickel belt, a prolific metal region with untapped potential
• Drilling at Fathom’s Gochager Lake property has identified promising nickel mineralization at depth, while the footprint at Albert Lake has expanded to 90,000+ hectares

Nickel is the silent workhorse of the clean energy revolution. Essential for electric vehicle batteries and renewable energy infrastructure, demand for this vital metal is skyrocketing. Plus, let’s not forget the expansive utility of nickel as a base metal integral to the world for centuries that isn’t going away either. To that point, North America faces a significant challenge: a looming nickel supply shortage.

Nickel plays a crucial role in high-performance lithium-ion batteries, the cornerstone of electric vehicles (“EVs”). Its ability to store energy efficiently and handle extreme temperatures makes it a key component.  Furthermore, nickel is used in wind turbines, solar panels, and the electricity grid infrastructure needed to support a transition to clean energy. Meeting global climate goals will be nothing short of impossible without nickel.

A Supply Chain Under Strain

While demand for nickel is projected to nearly double by 2030, global supply is struggling to keep pace.  The majority of nickel production comes from Indonesia and the Philippines, raising concerns about geopolitical dependence and potential supply chain disruptions. Additionally, environmental regulations and complex permitting processes can slow down new mine development in these regions.

North America, with its ambitious clean energy goals, is heavily reliant on imported nickel. The U.S. is deeply dependent upon Canada, importing 40% of its nickel in 2022 from its northern partner. Going forward, the U.S. will look even more to Canada as the country aims to bring more clean technology production within its borders. Relying upon Asian sources creates a significant vulnerability and hinders efforts to build a secure and sustainable clean energy future. Developing robust domestic nickel supplies is crucial for reducing far-East dependence and ensuring a steady flow of this critical metal.

North American nickel nirvana may be unearthed in the vaunted Trans-Hudson Corridor (“THC”) in Saskatchewan, Canada. This region boasts a world-class nickel belt with a long history of successful mining.  Existing mines in neighboring Manitoba and Quebec demonstrate the potential of the THC.  However, vast swathes of this promising region remain underexplored.

Fathom Nickel: Seizing the Opportunity

This is where Fathom Nickel (CSE: FNI) (FSE: 6Q5) (OTCQB: FNICF) steps in. A junior exploration company with a massive land package, Fathom is strategically positioned to capitalize on the untapped potential of the Saskatchewan nickel belt. Their portfolio comprises two highly prospective properties: the Gochager Lake Property and the Albert Lake Property. Combined, Fathom’s two properties in Saskatchewan consist of 66 individual mineral claims totaling 113,080 hectares.

Gochager Lake and Albert Lake: Historic Properties with Modern Potential

The Gochager Lake Property boasts a historic nickel-copper-cobalt deposit.  Past drilling identified significant mineralization, offering a strong foundation for further exploration with modern techniques.  Additionally, the property hosts the Mal Lake nickel occurrence and the Borys Lake zinc-lead-copper deposit, showcasing a diverse mineral assemblage.

Through March 30, 2024, the company has completed four drillholes totaling 1,779 meters drilled, with more drilling completed early in April. Complete assays results are expected by the last week of May. Drilling continues to expand the historic Gochager Lake deposit at depth with intersections of semi-massive to massive sulphide mineralization. For instance, the first four drillholes of the campaign all intersected significant mineralization and semi-massive mineralization has been confirmed to depths of 423 meters (drillhole depth), the deepest known mineralization at Gochager Lake ever.

Another interesting fact: Fathom’s intercept of 58.2 meters at Gochager grading 1.49% Ni, 0.38% Cu, and 0.11% Co was listed by Northern Miner Magazine as the 8^th best nickel intercept worldwide in 2023.

The Albert Lake Property, which started as a 10,000-hectare project that Fathom has expanded to over 90,000 hectares, sits in a strategic location within the THC, with nearby historical showings of nickel mineralization.  The property is located within the Rottenstone Domain, which defines the western margin of the Trans-Hudson Corridor. The knock originally on the project was never the quality of mineralization, only its small size. However, Fathom didn’t view the historic production (26,000 tons: 3.28% Ni, 1.83% Cu, 9.63 g/t Pd-Pt+Au) as an outlier, but rather a small discovery in a much larger system. And that’s exactly what they are proving by increasing the footprint 8x and subsequently discovering two new associated mineralization trends.

Investing in a Sustainable Future

Investing in Fathom Nickel offers the opportunity to participate in the next generation of a vital North American nickel supply chain. Their focus on the underexplored Saskatchewan nickel belt aligns with the growing demand for clean energy metals. By exploring and developing these resources, Fathom could contribute to a more secure and sustainable future for North America’s clean energy ambitions.

North America must reduce its dependence on foreign sources and bolster its own domestic resources through new discoveries, which falls right into Fathom’s wheelhouse.
