• Lexaria, a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, has announced its GLP-1 research plans for the 2024 calendar year
• The company will kick off its chronic dosing animal study in March/April, followed by the human pilot study #2, kicking off at around the same time
• The third human pilot study will start in May/June followed by a chronic dosing human study that will involve 70-90 pre-diabetic and type-2 diabetic human patients
• These studies will evaluate DehydraTECH for the improved delivery of GLP-1 drugs, designed to support prospective commercial partnering with global pharmaceutical companies

Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, has announced its research plans for the evaluation of its patented DehydraTECH(TM) technology for the improved delivery of GLP-1 drugs designed to support prospective commercial partnering with global pharmaceutical companies.. This builds on the success achieved from a recent human pilot study, which yielded impressive results, demonstrating superior pharmacokinetic (“PK”) oral delivery performance of the DehydraTECH-enhanced GLP-1 drug, semaglutide, which is currently available commercially as Rybelsus(R) (https://ibn.fm/uOdpf).

Kicking off at the end of Q1 or the beginning of Q2 is Lexaria’s chronic dosing animal study – an obese rat diabetic-conditioned study that will run for 12 weeks. The study will involve approximately 12 study arms and 6-10 animals per arm. It will also explore varied DehydraTECH formulations of semaglutide and liraglutide, alone and together with DehydraTECH-CBD, to evaluate overall efficiency.

Lexaria will also kick off human pilot study #2 in March/April. This study will involve up to 8 healthy volunteers and seek to explore the effectiveness of a single dose of oral ingested DehydraTECH-semaglutide capsules. It will seek to determine whether GLP-1 drug absorption via this route is effective and well tolerated as an alternative to the conventional oral ingestible route. It will evaluate blood sugar control, tolerability, and PK, with the DehydraTECH compositions compound-formulated using commercially available Rybelsus tablets as the semaglutide input material.

The third human pilot study will be in May/June, studying a single dose of orally ingested DehydraTECH-tirzepatide capsules to evaluate tolerability, PK, and blood sugar. The capsules will be compound-formulated using Zepbound(R). This product is currently administered by injection only but will be used as an input material to produce the capsules used for the study. This will set Lexaria up for its chronic dosing human study, which will involve 70-90 pre-diabetic and type-2 diabetic human patients, dosing daily using oral DehydraTECH capsules for 12 weeks. The study will also evaluate tolerability, PK, weight loss, blood sugar levels, and more.

The chronic dosing human study’s primary goal will be to compare DehydraTECH-processed semaglutide capsules to DehydraTECH-CBD capsules alone and together in combination, relative to a placebo control over an extended period. Insights from this study will also inform the company’s long-term stability testing, which will seek to explore the chemical and microbiological purity and stability of select DehydraTECH compositions that it prepares for this and future animal and human studies.

These studies highlight what is set to be a significant year for Lexaria. The ambitious goals show confidence in its DehydraTECH technology and its viability in the market.

• The hoopla surrounding crypto offerings’ highs and lows has attracted scores of new investors in a sort of modern-day gold rush, but the unfamiliarity of the sector to many traditional investors has been off-putting
• Utah-based Diamond Lake Minerals Inc. is redefining itself to attract digital asset-wary investors, by imbuing real world asset subsidiaries with security token offerings registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
• The company’s board members are experienced professionals, and its CEO has been ranked among the world’s Top 10 CEOs for three consecutive years recently by Adria Management, LLC in its World CEO Rankings Awards
• The popularity of DLMI’s approach has built a fan base, significantly increasing the company’s share price within just a few months

Salt Lake City-based company Diamond Lake Minerals (OTC: DLMI) is becoming a rapidly evolving success in the digital asset sector as it redefines its purpose and sets a course to bring digital-wary investors into regulated security token offerings (“STOs”) through a multi-strategy umbrella vision.

CEO Brian J. Esposito was ranked among the world’s Top 10 CEOs between 2020 and 2022 by Adria Management, LLC, and the company’s leadership team is guided by successful industry veterans (https://ibn.fm/UoGdM).

“We’re going to create a powerful parent umbrella company that has tremendous assets on its balance sheet as we continue to build and grow. Wonderful subsidiaries that we identify as great targets for our shareholders,” Esposito told Benzinga. “If you look at our board and the amount of wonderful icons that are very seasoned and very respected in their industries, having them support our vision and support our subsidiaries should give us a lot of strength and access and opportunities to help these companies really grow.”

DLMI’s vision entails operating, acquiring, building and supporting a large variety of companies in an industry-agnostic approach that provides DLMI investors an opportune gateway into all its divisional products.

Since the subsidiaries are each imbued with SEC-registered STOs through the regulated security token exchange INX, the company’s approach serves as a bridge for digital asset-uncertain investors to cross over to digital tokens without having to navigate the complexities of setting up a digital wallet and becoming hyper-attuned to the movements of crypto offerings.

“So we’re combining traditional securities with the future of digital assets in a regulated environment,” Esposito said. “I think this is what’s going to allow people to understand that this is the movement that’s happening. It is real. … We can open up capital to investors around the world through INX that typically wouldn’t have access to our types of vehicles as a public company in the United States, and that trades 24/7.”

DLMI aims to create a powerful parent umbrella company by ensuring its vertically integrated subsidiaries are potentially valuable targets for shareholders in sectors spanning music and other aspects of the entertainment industry, media, healthcare, real estate and a variety of other trades.

• A coalition of military veterans’ organizations is joining a growing number of entities encouraging the U.S. DEA to reschedule cannabis
• The call to reschedule cannabis has gained momentum since the U.S. HHS sent a letter to the DEA supporting the change
• Operating as MedCana, Software Effective Solutions has five divisions focused on pharmaceutical cannabis production

A growing number of organizations are calling for the rescheduling of cannabis from a Schedule I substance per the Controlled Substances Act (“CSA”) to a Schedule III substance. The most recent group to voice is support of the change is a coalition of military veterans (https://ibn.fm/FgMtF). Companies operating in the cannabis space, including Software Effective Solutions (d/b/a MedCana) (OTC: SFWJ), are paying close attention to the mounting demand because the rescheduling would significantly change the landscape.

“A coalition of military veterans’ organizations is pushing President Joe Biden to ensure that the ongoing administrative review into marijuana’s scheduling status is completed in a ‘timely manner’ and also take steps to ‘counter’ misinformation while pursuing broader reform,” reported a recent Marijuana Moment article. “In a letter sent to the president last week, multiple veterans-focused groups expressed appreciation for his directive initiating the marijuana review last year, which led the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (‘HHS’) to recommend that cannabis be moved from Schedule I to Schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act.”

The article quoted a letter from the group noting that “this process represents a significant opportunity for our nation to lead with science over fear, and begin righting the wrongs of prohibition. . . . The actions taken by your administration and HHS have been historic, and lay the groundwork for the significant work ahead, including the need to ensure that the Drug Enforcement Administration (‘DEA’) expeditiously accepts the scientific and medically founded recommendation.”

The call for cannabis rescheduling on the CSA list is not new, but it has gained momentum since the U.S. HHS sent a brief letter to the head of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. “The letter, obtained via Freedom of Information Act (‘FOIA’) request by Law360 reporter Sam Reisman, confirmed certain previously reported details such as the date of the correspondence, August 29, [2023,] and the author, HHS Assistant Secretary for Health Rachel Levine,” reported Marijuana Moment (https://ibn.fm/jHIWw).

“But it was redacted to exclude the substance of the message such as the scheduling recommendation itself, as well as the scientific review portion that was attached to the letter,” the article continued. However, “HHS is believed to have advised DEA to move marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act (‘CSA’), and the law enforcement agency is now carrying out its own review before making a final determination.”

A change in the rescheduling would almost certainly benefit Software Effective Solutions, a global infrastructure and holding company in the cannabis industry. Operating as MedCana, the company currently has five divisions focused on pharmaceutical cannabis production, as well a software company focused on managing processes for plant-to-patient operations. The recent acquisition of an irrigation and greenhouse technology company has rounded out MedCana’s portfolio of holdings.

MedCana’s focus is on developing clients and companies in Latin America, initially in Colombia, and partnerships with laboratories, research facilities and hospitals throughout the world. The company is committed to building the technology, laboratories, growing facilities and scientific teams needed to provide premium pharmaceutical-grade cannabis extracts to the world.

• Correlate Energy, a publicly traded distributed energy solutions company, is taking advantage of the expanding renewable energy landscape and is helping drive its adoption
• Correlate has positioned itself as the go-to renewable energy solution, leveraging its three-pronged strategy that allows companies to make the move to highly efficient energy use and renewables, while minimizing transition costs
• This comes as Amazon was recently ranked the largest corporate buyer of renewable energy in the world in 2023, spear-heading the movement toward renewable energy adoption and reliance

Correlate Energy (OTCQB: CIPI), a publicly traded company capitalizing on America’s accelerating move toward cost effective renewable energy use, is looking to take advantage of the changing landscape and the growing reliance on renewable energy. As a company that understands this industry inside and out, Correlate is not only riding this wave but also helping drive it by identifying high-impact areas for improvement, addressing them, and delivering results. This has seen the company’s products and services adopted by various legacy companies across the U.S., a testament to its overall value proposition.

Globally, the world is witnessing a shift and a growing adoption of renewable energy. This has been spear-headed by industry leaders, with Amazon ahead of them all. Given its declaration to reach net zero by 2040, the company has aggressively pushed to adopt renewable energy sources. This resolve saw it become the world’s largest corporate buyer of renewable energy for the 2023 calendar year. It also saw the company invest in over 100 new solar and wind energy projects, bringing the total number of wind and solar projects backing it to 500 globally and generating over 77,000 GWh of clean energy each year (https://ibn.fm/mepat).

“More than 90% of our operations were powered by renewables last year, but we’re not done,” noted Adam Selipsky, AWS CEO.

“We’re focused on continuing to find innovative ways to bring new projects online, address grid constraints, and work with policymakers to mitigate the impacts of climate change, all of which is helping Amazon move closer to achieving 100 percent renewable energy by 2025,” he added.

Correlate has positioned itself as the go-to renewable energy solution. Through its unique three-pronged engineering and financing strategy, companies can make the move to highly efficient energy use and renewables, while minimizing transition costs. Correlate seeks to finance, develop, and profitably sell localized clean energy solutions and microgrids to industrial, commercial, and residential customers. It also seeks to retain ownership of some of these energy systems, ultimately extending upfront cost savings to the customer while realizing ongoing, reliable cash flow.

It is projected that renewable energy growth will come primarily via decentralized systems in the next ten years, fitting in with what Correlate offers. With the company’s first-mover advantage, Correlate is carving out a significant market share and asserting itself as the go-to company with these specific products and services. This, in addition to its aggressive push in the market, reflects its commitment to becoming one of the industry’s key leaders. It also reflects its ambitious plans for 2024 and beyond and its commitment to achieving them.

• Powered by VMAR’s E-Motion engine, the Four Winns H2e was named winner in “Boating” magazine’s annual Boat of the Year competition
• The award announcement called out the torque provided by the Vision Marine Technologies 180e electric outboard
• Vision Marine is dedicated to pioneering the clean-energy transition on the water

“Boating” magazine announced its Boat of the Year category winners for 2023, and the Four Winns H2e came out on top in the Runabout category (https://ibn.fm/5O7Ls). The Four Winns bowrider is powered by Vision Marine Technologies’ (NASDAQ: VMAR) E-Motion, an 180 HP electric outboard engine that is the most powerful marine electric powertrain in the world (https://ibn.fm/nNLjP).

“Boating’s Boat of the Year is the most prestigious honor a boatbuilder can receive,” the “Boating” article proclaims. “The selection process starts with our team assessing each of the 100-plus boats we sea trial and publish a test about each year to see how any might stand out in their respective categories. . . . A BOTY category winner, besides possessing top construction, component installation and performance characteristics, must somehow advance its category, providing boat buyers with a better experience. From these, Boat of the Year will be selected.”

Noting that the new Four Winns H2e bowrider features power mixed with a luxurious, stable ride, a judge wrote that “the torque provided by the Vision Marine Technologies 180e electric outboard allowed me to get the H2e on top steadily without the bashing that comes when you need to make the boat jump up before throttling back to get going. The good-riding 22-footer then settled into a comfortable 21 mph. That was no surprise. Four Winns’ vaunted Stable-Vee hull, designed by Tom Wenstatdt, features stepped and ventilated afterpods. These inhibit excessive bow rise” (https://ibn.fm/9TzNr).

The article pointed out that the width from keel to chine is kept wide farther forward than on other hulls, which adds to stability and easy planing. “It’s also notable that the 180e’s torque maintains boat speed in turns,” the article observed. “Indeed, the 180e (180 hp or 134 kW) delivers the equivalent of 230 peak hp or 171 peak kW. The ‘180’ on its cowl reflects its continuous output. It’s much more than a motor—it’s an integrated propulsion system.

“Twin 43 kWh batteries wired into a control-and-charging system and monitored via two 10-inch touchscreens provide the power,” the article continued. “There’s also a phone app. Instant range, state of charge and other vital data display in real time. Therefore, while the H2e won’t do the distance or time at a stretch of the gas-powered H2 OB, there is no reason for range anxiety. You can see how far and how long you can run at a glance. And it’s quieter than a gas boat —70 versus 76 dB(A) at 21 mph, for example—and it leaves no emissions on the water. Plus, there’s the handling attributes of all that torque.”

The Four Winns H2e E-Motion engine is only a small piece of what VMAR does. As the global leader in the electric recreational boating industry serving both OEMs and consumers, Vision Marine is pioneering the clean-energy transition on the water by selling 100% electric boats, outboard motors and technology throughout the marine industry. In addition, the company strives to be a guiding force for change and an ongoing driving factor in fighting the problems associated with waterway pollution by disrupting the traditional boating industry with electric power.

• GEMXX recently provided an update to shareholders outlining its 2023 milestones and expansion plans for 2024 and beyond
• In 2023, the company acquired a 50% interest in Crazy Horse Mining Inc. (“CHMI”), a Canadian exploration company whose assets include 100% interest in two gold projects in British Columbia
• GEMXX, in collaboration with CHMI, completed the clean-out of the Snow Creek property and recorded positive results showing that the processing of the stockpile yielded 0.929 ounces of gold per 100 cubic yards
• The company has engaged independent experts to complete S-K 1300 reports on its gold and Ammolite assets to enable it to add their value to its balance sheet

Speaking during an October 2023 Bell2Bell Podcast episode, Richard Clowater, the President of GEMXX (OTC: GEMZ), a mine-to-market company that specializes in the production and global distribution of gold, gemstone, and jewelry and owns mining resources, production facilities, and operating assets, underlined that 2021 and 2022 were building years for the company (https://ibn.fm/0xDcQ). “The company had a clear and defined set of objectives from day one. We wanted to disrupt the industry and secure long-term supply contracts with key client groups. These goals were achieved, and GEMXX now has a strong foothold in three of the world’s top markets for our products,” said Clowater.

GEMXX, Clowater explained, achieved the goals by assembling a team with more than 160 years of combined experience in gold and gemstone production, operations, and sales. “Then we used their experience to organize all of our production and establish global distribution channels all within the first year,” he continued, further noting that the company has, over the last two years, amassed more than $600 million in proven Ammolite reserves and $200 million in gold reserves. Notably, the company has achieved this feat with no long-term debt, according to Clowater.

The calendar year 2023 has seen GEMXX witness continued growth, with the company achieving numerous milestones, including the fact that it continues to control each stage of its production as well as distribution and is continuously expanding while avoiding long-term debt. Recently, in an update to shareholders, GEMXX enumerated the 2023 milestones and outlined its expansion plans for 2024 (https://ibn.fm/dV3yR).

“We are tremendously pleased with the development of the company over the past several months and are extremely excited about the anticipated growth. We look forward to updating shareholders as each milestone below is met. Everything the company has planned is focused on driving shareholder value,” said GEMXX CEO Jay Maull.

The company’s first notable milestone of the year was the acquisition of a 50% interest in Crazy Horse Mining Inc. (“CHMI”), a Canadian exploration company whose assets include 100% interest in two gold projects, the 498-acre Snow Creek and the 240-acre Rosella Creek, located in British Columbia. Completed in March, the acquisition paved the way for GEMXX and CHMI to collaborate on mobilizing mining equipment, completing multiple clean-outs, and recording gold production at the Snow Creek Mine site for the 2023 mining season. March also saw GEMXX announce the signing of an Ammolite Master Supply Agreement with Canadian Ammolite Gems by Kenneth Bradley. Bradley is a recognized Ammolite expert and Canadian influencer with a growing global following.

In July, GEMXX announced it had strengthened its financial position following the involvement of new investors and strategic partners. As a result, the company secured 75% of the 2023 fiscal year’s mining costs for its gold and Ammolite initiatives. The company also reported that it had completed preliminary discussions and had shortlisted engineering firms capable of conducting National Instrument 43-101 reports (equivalent to the S-K 1300 reports) on both gold and Ammolite assets (https://ibn.fm/BzRQL).

A few months later, in September, GEMXX announced it had signed a binding letter of intent to acquire an initial 50% stake in The Yukon Gold Project, pending completion of due diligence. The property holds 2,210,660 ounces of proven gold resources, and is estimated to potentially hold up to 4 million ounces of gold. That month, GEMXX also announced plans to expand Ammolite gemstone production by 300% to support demand.

By October, the company, in collaboration with CHMI, had completed three clean-outs and recording of gold production at the Snow Creek Mine site. The collaboration led to the processing of a total of 31,200 cubic yards of stockpile of gold-bearing ore, yielding 0.929 ounces per 100 cubic yards. According to GEMXX, the production results met expectations. They were also deemed positive, considering much of the materials used during the test program was surface gold-bearing ore stockpiled when making roads, ponds, and pads used for the test site.

That same month, GEMXX announced it had engaged Aurora Geosciences, an independent expert, to complete the S-K 1300 technical reports on four assets owned by GEMXX and CHMI. The reports will enable the company to report confidently and accurately inferred mineral resources already owned but not represented on the balance sheet. Once Aurora Geosciences confirms the resources and a value is calculated, the value will be discounted by 90%, and that discounted value will be added to the balance sheet to represent the Net Present Value of resources before extraction.

“Management feels GEMZ is significantly undervalued. As of Q3 2023, the company only reported $14.1 million for owned resources, but this value is only a fraction of what the company owns. We feel the Net Present Value could exceed ten times that amount once resources are confirmed by an independent expert,” commented Clowater in an October 3 news release (https://ibn.fm/mxC8x).

Looking ahead into 2024 and beyond, GEMXX is keen on maintaining its focus on expansion and adding shareholder value. The company intends to complete the 50% acquisition of the Yukon Gold Property and initiate a pilot mine on this site; upscale gold production at the Snow Creek Property and move the test plant to the Rosella Creek site; bring its Ammolite Gemstone mine into full production; and complete the S-K 1300 compliant resource reports on its existing assets. GEMXX also looks to complete audits to enable it to be quoted on the OTCQX, the first step to up-listing to a larger exchange like the NASDAQ or New York Stock Exchange.

• Arizona-based SenesTech Inc., is focused on novel, non-lethal solutions to animal pest management through products that specifically target male and female rats’ fertility to reduce the proliferation of new pup litters
• The company achieved successes in limiting rodent populations with its liquid ContraPest(R) bait formulation and recently introduced a new product in a soft bait formulation, branded Evolve(TM)
• SenesTech has introduced its products throughout the United States and in other countries that include South Africa and the Maldives and, just recently, the United Arab Emirates
• SenesTech regards rodent control as one of the world’s most challenging problems, creating a ready-built market for its products — especially in light of news reports about municipal efforts to contain burgeoning rat populations in select cities

Animal pest control innovator SenesTech (NASDAQ: SNES) is expanding distribution of its rodent birth control solution globally, adding the United Arab Emirates (“UAE”) market as the latest entry point for its new Evolve(TM) Soft Bait product. The UAE agreement announced Jan. 2 (https://ibn.fm/pM9to) is part of SenesTech’s new rodent control product distribution agreement through Pesterminators Pvt Ltd and its subsidiary TCS Global for General Trading LLC.

SenesTech created its own unique niche within the pest control market after introducing its non-lethal liquid ContraPest(R) bait. Instead of poisoning rats, the bait targets fertility reduction in male and female rats, and Evolve(TM) has a similar mechanism of action but in a soft bait presentation preferred over liquids by pest management professionals (“PMPs”) and residential customers.

SenesTech’s products are the first, and still the only, such rat contraceptives for both males and females registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) designed to be non-lethal.

“The UAE has implemented strict measures in recent years to control and prevent the use of harmful chemicals. Health officials in Dubai have issued warnings about hiring illegal companies, with municipal regulations prohibiting the importing, handling, and trading of pesticides without permission, and limiting the use of poisons in sensitive areas,” Pesterminators and TCS Global, UAE CEO Sathes Ramachandran stated in the company’s announcement.

“Pesterminators is committed to introducing sustainable solutions for the pest management segment and holds a solid position in the UAE,” Ramachandran added. “Evolve aligns well into our pest control practice and meets regulatory requirements in the region.”

SenesTech President and CEO Joel Fruendt labeled rodent control one of the world’s most challenging problems in an Oct. 19 interview for the Lytham Partners Fall 2023 Investor Conference (https://ibn.fm/FomqU).

“Traditional pest control tools like lethal poisons seek to control the death rate and are therefore very reactive. The challenge, as we see it, is the incredible rate of reproduction of the rats. Given sufficient food, water and harborage, two breeding rats can result in 15,000 offspring after a single year,” Fruendt said.

“The largest pest company in the world, Rentokil, commissioned an interactive study, The Rise of Rats, that revealed how a pair of rats could produce nearly half a billion descendants in just three years. Half a billion! You cannot poison them, or trap them or gas them fast enough to overcome their fertility,” he said.

The company conducted studies of ContraPest’s(R) effectiveness at poultry farms on the east and west coasts of the United States, through the farms’ integrated pest management programs. The studies showed that SenesTech’s product cut the rat population in half in three months and produced a sustained 90 percent reduction over the 12-month study at the western facility, and that pullet survival from predation rebounded by 88 percent at the eastern facility — delivering hundreds of thousands of dollars in benefits in the process.

The growth in the rodent population in cities and suburbs has become an increasing concern since the 2020 COVID pandemic. New York City created an official “rat czar” position to deal with its troubles last year. Boston catalogued more than 3,900 rodent-related complaints as well, and Chicago logged more than 50,000 similar complaints (https://ibn.fm/Ae5vv).

• Digital marketing and engagement company Electronic Servitor Publication Network is releasing a series of infomercials that provide a powerful visual explanation of the advantages of a strong digital presence as well as an overview of the company’s disruptive technology: the Digital Engagement Engine(TM)
• So far, the company has released two visual presentations, available on its website and YouTube channel (linked below) showing client companies how to grow profit by offering a superior way to engage their target audience
• The Digital Engagement Engine(TM) is intended to help solve problems such as fragmentation of data and lack of communication between the many apps that are part of businesses’ technology stacks
• XESP’s disruptive technology helps increase a client company’s ability to generate revenue, preserve margins, increase productivity, reduce cost, and reduce the time to market, as well as enabling them to grow at scale

Electronic Servitor Publication Network (OTCQB: XESP) is pioneering the next step in the evolution of digital marketing through its disruptive technology, the Digital Engagement Engine(TM) (“DE2”), designed to help businesses become more digitally dynamic and profitable. To provide more information about the capabilities of the DE2, XESP is releasing a series of infomercials, the first of which are available on its website’s home page at https://ibn.fm/mpOeG. The company has also released a second video, posted on its website Investor Relations page at https://ibn.fm/1b6hS, as well as cross-posting both videos on its YouTube channel (https://ibn.fm/FOcbw).

Targeting multiple verticals in markets such as MedTech, Biotech, FinTech, and eGaming, these presentations are intended to provide a conversational and visual explanation of the advantages of having a strong digital presence, as well as to give a good overview of the Digital Engagement Engine(TM) and how it helps companies maintain connections to their target audiences (https://ibn.fm/6kmzK).

The Digital Engagement Engine(TM) is a superior solution to prevailing problems affecting the current business landscape. With the world of business becoming more competitive than ever, companies need to invest in appropriate technologies to effectively commercialize and market their products. However, as Electronic Servitor Publication Network observes in one of the visual presentations, the technologies that businesses have long adopted do not support communication with each other, a characteristic that leads to fragmentation of the products and the data they generate. “The more sophisticated the technology gets, the more bogged down a company and its sales staff becomes,” explains XESP.

XESP, which aims to serve the next generation of technology-enabled businesses, emphasizes that businesses must consistently improve their digital practices to keep up with the ever-evolving business landscape. Past methodologies that were previously adopted to achieve results, including the use of search engine optimization (“SEO”) to drive web traffic and other mass-market techniques, have become static, offering diminishing returns.

To solve these problems, Electronic Servitor Publication Network is deploying its disruptive DE2 technology. “At XESP, we use our Digital Engagement Engine(TM) to learn from your past and current interactions to create new engagements that are tailored, as if we are talking to each intended target on a personal level that they comprehend,” explains the infomercial.

Moreover, the Digital Engagement Engine(TM) platform syncs the many technological tools of businesses and harmonizes data that would otherwise remain separate in multiple different apps and locations. “Once all products and data are aligned, the DE2 will embed your best rules and logic from your most highly talented sales and marketing people and deploy them digitally,” the company continues. The inclusion of the businesses’ own rules and logic results in deeper customer engagement that provides a superior outcome.

“At Electronic Servitor Publication Network, we do not sell you another license or a piece of technology; we sell you the ability to increase revenue without adding more tech debt or costly unproductive marketing and sales teams,” XESP conveys. With XESP’s Digital Engagement Engine(TM) platform, businesses focus on the outcome instead of access to more technology.

• GEMXX in September signed a binding letter of intent to acquire a 50% interest in the historic Yukon Gold Project, which holds 2,210,660 ounces of proven gold resources, and potentially holds a total of 4 million ounces of gold
• The company recently updated the progress made in the review and verification of previously completed exploration work as part of the due diligence process to purchase the Yukon Gold Project property
• GEMXX is also assessing the data to determine whether other minerals and/or rare earth elements are also commercially viable on the property
• The move to acquire the Yukon Gold Project property is part of GEMXX’s long-term asset expansion plan, which has also seen it acquire a 50% interest in an exploration company that owns 100% interest in two gold projects in British Columbia, Canada

GEMXX (OTC: GEMZ), a publicly traded, mine-to-market company that focuses on producing gold, gemstone, and jewelry from its own land resources, has this year intensified the execution of its long-term asset expansion plan, initially acquiring a 50% interest in Crazy Horse Mining Inc. (“CHMI”), a Canadian exploration company that owns 100% interest in two gold projects in British Columbia, Snow Creek and Rosella Creek, covering more than 700 acres (https://ibn.fm/B5mmQ).

“The acquisition of the Snow Creek and Rosella Creek gold asset portfolio enhances the company’s long-term asset expansion plan and helps to de-risk revenues, but more importantly, it complements our Ammolite production with the world’s most sought-after commodity,” said GEMXX CEO Jay Maull of the CHMI acquisition, announced in March. “This will provide GEMXX with a significant reduction in the cost of goods for our entire gold jewelry product line and will bring the company one step closer to our goal of becoming vertically integrated.”

In September, the company moved another step closer to achieving this goal when it signed a binding letter of intent to acquire a 50% interest in the historic Yukon Gold Project, which holds 2,210,660 ounces of proven gold resources, according to an NI 43-101 Resource Report completed in 2010 by Aurora Geosciences Ltd. (https://ibn.fm/jFv88). The acquisition is pending, awaiting the completion of due diligence and verification of the considerable exploration work that had been carried out on the property. This exploration work includes trenching, diamond drilling, soil sampling, ground magnetometer and induced polarization surveys, and geological mapping and prospecting.

GEMXX is also awaiting the verification of assessments quantifying the proven as well as the potential gold resources (https://ibn.fm/EXf9t). According to the Resource Report, which includes probable and possible values, the Yukon Gold Project potentially holds a total of 4 million ounces of gold. (GEMXX has not yet verified the historic resource classification or volume, but it remains confident they indicate the property’s potential.)

With the due diligence and verification processes well underway, GEMXX recently sought to update investors and shareholders on the progress made in this regard. According to the update, the company has engaged a professional geological services firm to assess the historical resource documents and data pertaining to the Yukon Gold Property project.

As part of the assessment and verification, the firm will update the historical resources to the current Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy, and Petroleum (“CIM”) reporting standards. Any additional drilling programs or assay results added will be included in the updated S-K 1300-compliant report.

In addition to reviewing and verifying data relating to the lucrative gold assets, GEMXX is assessing the data to determine whether other minerals and/or rare earth elements (“REEs”) are also commercially viable on the property. (REEs are a set of 17 elements used to manufacture vital components of modern technology, from defense and telecommunication systems to electronic and transportation equipment.)

GEMXX has also begun discussions with the current owner/partner to conduct a pilot plant on the Yukon property starting next year. “A pilot plant will test the parameters of new technologies, production systems, and process technologies to support the sustainable scale-up of mineral processing and production methods. It will provide an opportunity to test flowsheet visibility, equipment, and operations on a small scale before full production,” commented Maull.

The Yukon Gold Property is located south of Whitehorse within Canada’s Yukon Territory. It consists of 145 full Yukon Quartz Claims, which entitle the current owner and potentially GEMXX, subject to the successful finalization of the planned acquisition, to the minerals in the property’s bedrock (https://ibn.fm/mQghD).
