• The first container of mixed RE carbonate has been shipped from the United States to Europe.
• The announcement marks important achievement, not only for UUUU and NEO, but also for U.S. government efforts to restore critical rare earth supply chains.
• Energy Fuels is the only North American company that currently produces a monazite-derived, enhanced rare earth material.

A milestone has been reached in the quest to create a new rare earth supply chain based in the United States. Energy Fuels (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR) and Neo Performance Materials (TSX: NEO) have announced that the first container of mixed rare earth (“RE”) carbonate has been shipped from UUUU’s White Mesa Mill in Utah to NEO’s rare earth separation facility in Estonia, creating a new United States-to-Europe rare earth supply chain. “Today, Energy Fuels and Neo took significant steps toward restoring critical U.S. and European rare earth supply chains,” said Energy Fuels president and CEO Mark S. Chalmers. “Energy Fuels has methodically ramped up our mixed rare earth carbonate production since we first started feeding Georgia monazite ore into our Utah mill in March. “Successfully producing this rare earth product, and physically delivering the first containers of rare earth carbonate to Neo, is an important achievement, not only for Energy Fuels and Neo, but also for U.S. government efforts to restore critical rare earth supply chains,” Chalmers continued. “This is also very good news for end users of rare earth products in the U.S., Europe, Japan and elsewhere who seek alternative sources of rare earths produced in the U.S. and Europe to the highest global standards of environmental protection and sustainability.” The initial container, approximately 20 tonnes of product, is the first of 15 containers expected to be shipped to Estonia in the coming weeks. The new supply chain begins in the state of Georgia, where Chemours (NYSE: CC) mines natural monazite sand ore, or monazite, that contains both the rare earth elements and naturally occurring uranium. The rare earth elements are then processed into RE carbonate by UUUU’s White Mesa Mill before it is shipped off to Estonia and separated into rare earth oxides and other value-added rare earth compounds. This commercial-scale process has established Energy Fuels as the only company in North America that currently produces a monazite-derived, enhanced rare earth material, and the shipment of the product represents the beginning of a new, environmentally responsible rare earth supply chain. This new supply chain could benefit manufacturers of electric vehicles (“EVs”), renewable energy systems and other users of rare earths in North America, Europe and Japan, as well as other nations. “The launch of this new supply chain is a real gamechanger for Neo and our growing customer base in Europe,” said Neo’s CEO Constantine Karayannopoulos. “This innovative U.S.-to-Europe supply chain will supplement Neo’s existing rare earth supply from our long-time Russian supplier. It will enable Neo to expand value-added rare earth production in Estonia to meet growing demand in Europe for these materials. It begins to unlock the extraordinary economic and environmental potential presented by utilizing low-cost rare earth feedstock from monazite ore that is a byproduct of existing mining. And it helps Neo ramp up rare earth production in Estonia just as Europe accelerates vehicle electrification and other initiatives aimed at mitigating climate impacts.” Energy Fuels is the leading uranium mining company in the United States; the company also produces vanadium from certain of its projects, and it was the nation’s largest producer of this critical mineral in 2019. Vanadium is used in steel, master alloys and emerging utility-scale batteries, with prices up more than 70% this year. Headquartered in Denver, Colorado, UUUU holds three of America’s key uranium production centers: the White Mesa Mill in Utah, the Nichols Ranch in-situ recovery (“ISR”) Project in Wyoming, and the Alta Mesa ISR Project in Texas.

• HempFusion Wellness is raising its profile as a CBD-focused health and wellness innovator as it continues to acquire other promising industry players.
• The passage of the U.S. Farm Bill in 2018 drove a fiercely competitive market for hemp-based CBD but a significant decline in the market during the past year’s pandemic has driven a consolidation of brands.
• HempFusion recently completed full acquisition of Sagely Enterprises Inc. (“Sagely Naturals”), which will boost HempFusion’s retail channel by 14,000 outlets.
• CBD remains a go-to option for many Americans seeking relief from post-workout soreness and relaxation. HempFusion’s OTC topicals are designed to meet consumer needs for pain, acne and eczema, while their CBD support capsules offer overall wellness and/or targeted support for sleep, stress or energy.

The trend toward merger and acquisition activity throughout the market for cannabidiol (“CBD”) products reflects a maturation of the fragmented sector and is generating optimism that the brands emerging from this transitional phase will be well equipped to grow during the coming years. “Thirty-five-hundred brands cannot be supported — period — in this industry,” HempFusion Wellness, Inc. (TSX: CBD.U) (OTCQX: CBDHF) (FWB: 8OO) co-founder and CEO Jason Mitchell told Natural Products Insider in a recent interview acknowledging the number of brands has dropped to 2,000 (https://ibn.fm/BVdqa). “There just isn’t enough consumer interest. It just doesn’t make sense at all.” Mitchell has been bullish about consolidation since just before the global sweep of the COVID-19 virus began battering CBD store fronts and larger national markets in general. HempFusion acquired Probulin Probiotics LLC, in 2019 and has since gone on to announce the proposed 100% acquisition of the holdings company that owns the Apothecanna CBD line (https://ibn.fm/mp9wQ) and, most recently, the completion of its acquisition of Sagely Enterprises Inc. (“Sagely Naturals”), a producer of premium CBD products with mass distribution in more than 14,000 retail outlets nationwide (https://ibn.fm/oI21a). Brightfield Group market analysts Managing Director Bethany Gomez told Natural Products Insider that Hemp-based CBD sales grew 560% in 2019 on the heels of the December 2018 passage of Farm Bill legislation legalizing once-banned hemp production and sales across the United States, but in 2020 the sector’s growth dropped to just 11%. HempFusion’s emphasis on regulatory compliance for hemp-derived products worldwide and its efforts to identify lucrative subsidiary markets are positioning the company to take advantage of ongoing growth in the $4.6 billion channel, which Brightfield expects to bump up to 15% this year for an outcome of $5.3 billion by year’s end. HempFusion ended 2020 with more than $4.19 million in net revenue but expects that number to more than triple in 2021, according to the Sagely announcement. And as advocates continue to push federal marijuana legalization under a newly strengthened Democratic administration (https://ibn.fm/1B6sb), hemp growers are hopeful that any strengthening of marijuana’s profile at the state or federal level will boost de-stigmatization of CBD products in areas where consumers have continued to remain wary thus far because of non-intoxicating hemp’s close familial relationship to the intoxicating hemp that produces marijuana (https://ibn.fm/A6mdT) During the past decade, hemp-based CBD has gained a powerful following because of its reputed usefulness in easing pain and anxiety, particularly in connection with medical conditions including Parkinson’s disease, dementia, diabetes, and multiple sclerosis, as well as epilepsy in children. HempFusion’s products include over-the-counter (“OTC”) therapeutics in the form of topicals, as well as CBD capsules for targeted support, CBD oils and skin-soothing creams, all made using their uniquely pure, organically produced whole food hemp extract.

• The company provides ear care and cleaning solutions for a total packaged service
• Free hearing testing can be completed on the company’s website and on the app to determine if hearing loss has occurred and if a hearing aid or sound amplification device is the best fit
• The company’s self-service fully automated hearing screening kiosks target an additional 41 million Americans who may not have access to an audiologist – also doubling as a point-of-sale system for the InnerScope hearing aid products
• InnerScope’s self-service fully automated hearing screening kiosks will be deployed in big box retailers, grocery stores, pharmacies and other public spaces; InnerScope has received interest from dozens of businesses and has already numerous signed contracts to launch hearing screening kiosks in the coming months in over nine states
• InnerScope has been in the retail hearing device business for over 70 years; each member of its management team started in the industry at an early age

InnerScope Hearing Technologies (OTC: INND) is a Nevada corporation incorporated on June 15, 2012, with its principal place of business in Roseville, California. The company was initially started in 2006 – operating as InnerScope Advertising Agency Inc. – to provide advertising and marketing services to retail establishments in the hearing device industry. On August 25, 2017, the company changed its name to InnerScope Hearing Technologies Inc. to better reflect its current direction as a hearing health technology company that manufactures, develops, distributes and sells numerous innovative hearing health-related products, hearing treatments and hearing solutions, direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) through a scalable business model. The company is a manufacturer and a distributor/retailer of DTC, FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) registered, Bluetooth app-controlled hearing aids and personal sound amplifier products (“PSAPs”), hearing-related treatment therapies, doctor-formulated dietary hearing supplements, proprietary CDB oil for treating tinnitus and assorted hearing and health-related products targeting approximately 70 million Americans suffering from hearing-related problems. The company’s mission is to improve the quality of life of the 70 million people in North America and the 1.5 billion people worldwide who suffer from hearing impairment and/or hearing-related issues. The management team of InnerScope is applying decades of industry experience and believes it is well-positioned, with its innovative in-store point-of-sale Free Self-Check Hearing Screening Kiosks (“Hearing Kiosks”), to directly benefit when the Over the Counter (“OTC”) Hearing Aid Act (the “OTC Hearing Aid Law”) is enacted (expected in late 2021 based on the President’s Executive Order issued on July 9, 2021) The OTC Hearing Aid Law allows OTC hearing aids for perceived mild-to-moderate hearing losses to be sold in retail stores without having to see a professional. InnerScope’s Hearing Kiosk is designed to help the tens of millions of Americans with undetected/untreated mild-to-moderate hearing loss treat themselves with the company’s easy, convenient and affordable OTC hearing aids, in-store and/or online. Industry Game-Changer – New Emerging Market with 48 Million Potential Customers The following is sourced from The White House Fact Sheet detailing an Executive Order from President Biden aimed at saving Americans with hearing loss thousands of dollars by allowing hearing aids to be sold over the counter at drug stores: “Hearing Aids: Hearing aids are so expensive that only 14% of the approximately 48 million Americans with hearing loss use them. On average, they cost more than $5,000 per pair, and those costs are often not covered by health insurance. A major driver of the expense is that consumers must get them from a doctor or a specialist, even though experts agree that medical evaluation is not necessary. Rather, this requirement serves only as red tape and a barrier to more companies selling hearing aids. The four largest hearing aid manufacturers now control 84% of the market.” On July 9, 2021, President Biden noted the following in reference to his Executive Order relating to hearing aids: “Right now, if you need a hearing aid, you can’t just walk into a pharmacy and pick one up over the counter. You have to get it from a doctor or a specialist. Not only does that make getting hearing aids inconvenient, it makes them considerably more expensive, and it makes it harder for new companies to compete, innovate and sell hearing aids at lower prices.” “As a result, a pair of hearing aids can cost thousands of dollars. That’s a big reason why just one in seven Americans with hearing loss actually use a hearing aid.” InnerScope Game-Changers For InnerScope, this Executive Order could present a significant opportunity. The company is uniquely positioned with a number of strategic advantages and offerings in the space, including:

• First to Market: Free self-check hearing screening kiosks deployed in national pharmacy chains, big-box retailers & national and local groceries chains
• Online Hearing Screening Tests: For national retailers to use their websites to attract more customers in conjunction with the company’s in-store hearing kiosks
• The HearIQ App for iOS and Android users: Offers a free self-check hearing test and provides a user control function for InnerScope’s Bluetooth app-controlled self-adjusting rechargeable hearing devices
• Customer Monthly Subscription Model: Offering the lowest, most affordable monthly payment options (as low as $42 per month for pair of rechargeable, app-controlled hearing aids) for consumers to purchase hearing aids and receive free upgrades every two years

The In-Store Hearing Screening Kiosks and Online Free Hearing Screening Tests Innerscope’s hearing screening kiosk and online hearing screening tests offer free self-check hearing evaluation using the world’s first “Hearing Triage” artificial intelligent pattern recognition software, which has a unique ability to classify both level (degree of loss) and pattern (type of loss). In addition, the software can detect the probable location of the hearing problem and its degree of severity. The tests are developed as a hearing wellness tool to help track hearing ability and (if tests results indicate a hearing loss) make recommendations for in-store point of sale or online purchase of one of InnerScope’s hearing devices, as well as providing recommendations to see one of the professionals in InnerScope’s local contracted network of hearing health care experts for further follow-up testing if necessary. The software also generates an audiometric report which is instantly emailed to the customer. The HearIQ App InnerScope is the creator of the HearIQ App, which offers free self-check hearing tests and provides a user control function for InnerScope’s line of Bluetooth app-controlled self-adjusting rechargeable hearing devices. InnerScope developed the free hearing test part of the HearIQ App to help with the early detection of hearing loss for the 1.5 billion people worldwide who have untreated hearing loss or some form of hearing issues that may be undetected and do not have access to a computer for InnerScope’s online hearing screening test. Hearing Aid Products Through its dedicated online store, MyHearIQ.com, InnerScope offers affordable, direct-to-consumer, Bluetooth app-controlled, self-adjusting hearing technology to empower consumers to take control of their hearing care.

InnerScope also created an easy shopping experience for its hearing and tinnitus vitamins through Walmart and Amazon Prime. With new partnerships in the works, the company aims to add other online and brick-and-mortar establishments to its vitamin distribution network in the future. Hearing Aid Market Outlook The global hearing aid market is expected to reach $11.02 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 7.4% during the forecast period.

• Adding mulch to gardens, landscapes provides numerous advantages, including water conservation and environmental sustainability
• SGTM was developed by combining resources of three companies that are leaders in their specialties
• Mulch Manufacturing has product line. distribution system to address substantial customer base with significant expansion potential

In the midst of record heat across the country, smart landscape professionals and gardeners are taking advantage of the benefits of mulch, which include helping the soil retain moisture so less watering is needed (https://ibn.fm/dY9zu). Sustainable Green Team (OTC: SGTM) and its wholly owned subsidiary Mulch Manufacturing Inc. offer a wide variety of mulch products designed to provide consumers with benefits during the heat of the summer as well as all year long. “There are a number of advantages to adding mulch in your garden,” states a recent “Better Homes and Garden” article. “In the summer, mulch helps the soil hold moisture so you don’t have to water as often. In the hot sun, soil also tends to dry out faster and harden. Mulch will help protect the soil from baking in direct sunlight and keep your plants happy.” The article goes on to note that mulch prevents weeds by blocking light from reaching the soil, keeping many kinds of weed seeds from sprouting. “By adding a thick layer of mulch, you’ll ensure that the weeds never see the light of day!” the article notes. Other benefits from using mulch include an increase in soil’s structure and fertility and even environmental sustainability. “A layer of mulch can help fight climate change because covered soil holds onto carbon instead of releasing this greenhouse gas into the air,” the article notes. That’s a benefit that is of particular interest to SGTM, a company focused on sustainability. Sustainable Green Team’s vertical integration efforts begin with collecting tree debris through its tree services division and collection sites and then, through its processing division, recycling and using that tree debris as a feedstock that is manufactured into a variety of organic, attractive, next-generation mulch products that are packaged and sold to landscapers, installers and garden centers. The Sustainable Green Team was developed by combining the resources of three companies that are leaders in their specialties to create a company focused on addressing the needs of its customers with a new level of quality and cost effectiveness. Specifically, Mulch Manufacturing receives large volumes of wood fiber from SGTM’s Central Florida Arborcare to feed raw material needs. Mulch Manufacturing has the product line and distribution system to address a substantial customer base with significant expansion potential. A supplier to both wholesale and retail customers, Mulch Manufacturing offers dozens of high-quality, packages mulch products that include both natural and color-enhanced mulch products made of hardwood, cypress, pine, cedar and cypress. The company also offers SoftScape mulch, a proprietary, next-generation product the has the texture of long strings of wood fiber resembling pine straw and features an innovative colorant technology that produces a vivid, attractive appearance with color that lasts for years. The Sustainable Green Team plans to expand its operations through a combination of organic growth and strategic acquisitions that are both accretive to earnings and positioned for rapid growth from the resulting synergistic opportunities identified. SGTM’s customers include governmental, residential and commercial clients. To learn more about Sustainable Green Team Ltd., view the investor presentation at https://ibn.fm/dE2BW.

• Lexaria is making progress with research on its DehydraTECH drug delivery technology
• Advanced 2nd-generation DehydraTECH 2.0 formulations utilized in ongoing hypertension studies
• The company intends to monetize its technology for commercial use
• Its quest for commercial success also follows its move to delist from the Canada Securities Exchange (“CSE”) to focus on the Nasdaq listing

Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX) continues to innovate with its DehydraTECH(TM) drug-delivery technology. It is constantly collaborating with research institutions and businesses to identify other new ways to improve its technology. So far, advanced DehydraTECH 2.0 formulations are already being used by the company in ongoing human studies. The technology is already being monetized through commercial use (https://ibn.fm/95zra). As part of its quest for growth and success, Lexaria marked its final trading day on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) on Wednesday, July 7, 2021 (https://ibn.fm/a9N8S). The move saw the company consolidate the trading of its shares solely on the Nasdaq. Since it was listed back in January 2021, a substantial fraction of its shareholders moved onto this exchange. To them, it offered more liquidity than ever before, and to Lexaria, it presented an opportunity to realize savings in fees and managerial time. The company’s management intends to direct the cost savings resulting from this move to its applied research and development programs which would further advance the company’s business. Just earlier this year, Lexaria’s HYPER-A21-1 study resulted in the inclusion of three new DehydraTECH 2.0 formulation variations that would enable cannabidiol (“CBD”) delivery performance enhancements as well as pharmacokinetic optimization (https://ibn.fm/g2VGO). With more funding for such research, Lexaria is well-positioned to achieve even better results and better outcomes for its drug-delivery goals. Lexaria is recognized as a global innovator in drug delivery platforms. Its proprietary technology, DehydraTECH, improves how active pharmaceutical ingredients (“APIs”) are absorbed into the bloodstream through oral ingestion methods, and the effectiveness of fat-soluble active molecules. With DehydraTECH, Lexaria pushes for fast-acting, less expensive and more effective oral drug delivery that has so far been scrutinized in vitro, vivo and human clinical testing. Its revenue model is mainly comprised of licensing its DehydraTECH to various enterprises around the world, offering consumers the best possible performance across various ingestible product formats. So far, the technology is applicable for different needs that include nicotine-related oral absorption, cannabis-related absorption, antivirals and more. Currently, Lexaria is working on additional DehydraTECH 2.0 formulations in its HYPER-A21-2 study and other R&D programs. It further plans to carry out advanced research that seeks to evaluate the impacts on real-time blood pressure in animals using specific formulations pursuant of these studies. Every single move for the company is geared towards levering its technology for hoped-for global commercial use and, so far, everything seems to be on track.

• The company will offer access to the staking pools for NFT investing during July 2021, with the first revenue from royalties being available for clients in Q3 2021
• BAND NFTs are required mandatory staking (if given the option) for at least 90 days up to five years
• The first 2100 NFT purchasers to register with the Music Mogul Club will be offered additional membership perks
• The entire BAND Royalty Performance Music Catalog can be found on YouTube featuring over 50 songs by popular artists, including Justin Timberlake, will.i.am, Cher, Beyonce, and more

BAND Royalty, an entertainment and technology-driven firm and a leading innovator of music-focused non-fungible tokens (“NFTs”), is changing the NFT buyer’s journey, creating exclusive incentives and making each buyer a member of an exclusive Music Mogul Club. The Music Mogul Club, scheduled for release at the end of June 2021, is a front-row seat for exclusive concerts, exclusive BAND merchandise, exclusive backstage events, inside access to new NFT releases, festival passes, discounts on concerts and exclusive prize draws. To begin, at least one BAND NFT must be purchased through the company’s proprietary NFT marketplace.  Each NFT in the first series is listed for one Ethereum, requiring a Metamask or Trust Wallet linked account prior to purchasing. For ease of purchase, it is recommended to have an amount slightly over the purchase price to ensure the transaction processes. Once the NFT has been purchased, it can be registered into the Music Mogul Club. Additionally, the first 2100 NFT holders registering for the Music Mogul Club will gain access to additional membership benefits. Finally, NFT holders can stake their BAND NFT in the pool of their choosing. These pools include publishing royalties, mechanical & public performance royalties, and music synchronization royalties. These staking poos are scheduled to open in July, with stakers beginning to earn royalties as early as Q3 2021. NFTs must be staked for a minimum of 90 days up to five years. The BAND Royalty Performance Music Catalog features over 50 songs that NFT stakers can earn royalties from. The entire catalog can be found on the Band Royalty YouTube Channel, featuring prominent artists singing vocals for these songs – including Justin Timberlake, Cher, will.i.am, Beyonce, Jay-Z, and more. Additionally, the company’s Limited-Edition Music NFTs Series 1: Every Time It’s Played features 15 unique art pieces that depict the diversity within the music industry. Every series will have its own specific artwork as one identifiable factor of the NFT. The current NFT level on sale is the Vinyl Album NFT collection. The collections will decrease in NFT availability while increasing in cost, some costing as much as 10 ETH. The three top tier levels have already been sold – Platinum Diamond Album, Diamond Album, and Double Diamond Album. These were sold for 15 ETH, 20 ETH, and 25 ETH, respectively. The next set to be released will be the Vinyl Gold Album with 750 NFTs that cost 3 ETH apiece. The amounts only go higher in terms of ETH from there. The number of staking pools is also determined by the BAND NFT Level that is purchased. These range from one staking pool with the Vinyl Album to all three staking pools with Platinum Album NFT. In addition to the Music Mogul Club, BAND Royalty has also released its own music-oriented NFT marketplace – replacing the original plan to use another platform for sales, and positioning the company to capitalize on the ever-shifting landscape of digital ownership and the fast-growing NFT industry.

• Nextech acquired Map Dynamics, an event software platform, in November 2020
• In a recent update to shareholders, Nextech announced that Map Dynamics had generated approximately $500,000 since its acquisition
• For the 18 months preceding the acquisition, Map Dynamics had generated about $1.5 million; these statistics suggest that Nextech is on course to attain target to grow Map Dynamics by 100X
• Nextech also announced that Map Dynamics had been recognized as this 2021’s “Supporting Associate Organization of the Year” by the Florida Society of Association Executives (“FSAE”)

inn November 2020, Nextech AR Solutions (CSE: NTAR) (OTCQB: NEXCF), a leading provider of augmented reality (“AR”) experience technologies and services, announced it had acquired self-service event software platform Map Dynamics. In a statement accompanying the announcement, Nextech CEO Evan Gappelberg intimated that the company was looking at the acquisition as an opportunity to grow Map Dynamics by 100X (https://ibn.fm/zNwEf). A little over seven months later, Nextech, in a July 9 update to shareholders, announced that Map Dynamics had generated approximately $500,000 since being acquired (https://ibn.fm/RrjQM). Considering that its revenue for the 18 months pre-acquisition was about $1.5 million, NTAR appears to be on course to achieve the growth target. NTAR also announced that Map Dynamics had been recognized as the “Supporting Associate Organization of the Year” by the Florida Society of Association Executives (“FSAE”). This award, whose previous recipients have included Hilton Worldwide, MemberClicks, and Marriott International, honors an organization or company that has demonstrated exceptional efforts, excellence, and innovation regarding its ongoing or special services or programs that benefit their profession, industry, or the association industry. The company should also have at least one FSAE Associate member. Map Dynamics was awarded for its longstanding commitment to both the FSAE and the association industry through being actively involved in and authentically partnering with multiple state association societies. Further, despite the pandemic-induced trade show cancellations, Map Dynamics remained resolute. The company, in fact, regrouped and delivered new solutions to its customers through a new virtual event platform. “With Map Dynamics acquisition, we not only ended up with a great platform that has serviced 4.5 million visitors, but also 700 association customers that are connected to thousands of businesses or members. We are now starting to work with the associations to educate them about our AR solutions that would benefit their members,” said Evan Gappelberg. Evan further noted that about 33% of all Americans are connected to an industry association or non-profit organization and that Nextech’s work benefits the members of these important bodies. The company is excited to expand the range of offerings available to all members across the association value chain to fully leverage its full suite of AR and hybrid event solutions. “With close to 100,000 industry associations in North America – we anticipate significant growth opportunities ahead with our innovative AR solutions,” Evan concluded. Jeremy Minnick, the Lead Developer for Map Dynamics, considered the award a profound affirmation that the company is an integral part of the community, as well as a powerful reminder to continue fighting for its beliefs (https://ibn.fm/68caE).
