The recent drill holes were strategically directed towards untested central areas of the Lisle Zone, which are integral to the block model developed by our consulting team for the Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE). All three drill holes are situated within the mineral resource pit, as detailed in Doubleview’s news release dated July 25, 2024. These drill results not only validate the existing block model but also provide additional data that enhances our confidence in its accuracy. In preparation for the upcoming enhanced resource estimate for the Hat deposit, our primary objective of demonstrating continuity, increasing the density of data, and further improving the quality of the geological models, has been successfully achieved. The three cross sections included in this release illustrate the intersected mineralization within the Hat polymetallic mineral deposit, highlighting the mineralized blocks for each drill hole.

Farshad Shirvani, President and CEO, comments that, “The objectives of the 2024 drilling program are to enhance the data intensity where it is warranted, identify additional near surface copper and gold mineralization, and increase the tonnage and volume of the Hat deposit. These drill holes provide important geological information and data that bridge the area between drill holes H034 and H031, H012 and H071 while verifying the block model. We are pleased to see the years of work on the Hat project come to fruition, particularly to see the continuation of long intervals of strong copper mineralization.”

Doubleview Provides Exploration Update at the Hat Polymetallic Mineral Deposit, 2024 Drilling Now Exceeds 7,500 m

Doubleview (TSXV: DBG) (OTCQB: DBLVF) (FSE: 1D4) (“Doubleview” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the 2024 drilling program at the Hat polymetallic mineral deposit, located in Northern British Columbia, has now surpassed 7,500 meters and is continuing. The company anticipates receiving the first assay results of the 2024 drilling season in the very near future. The drilling program will expand the mineral resource, infill areas with limited drill data, and extend the lateral and depth boundaries of the existing resource envelope, which remains open in all directions and at depth.

The 2024 drill targets recognize the mineral resource block model from the recently completed Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) and will increase the mineral resource and upgrade the confidence level of the resource categories. The drilling has met expectations, with visual results aligning with and confirming the block model’s projections. The Hat deposit hosts several critical minerals as defined in the Canadian Critical Minerals Strategy, including copper, cobalt and, potentially, scandium, and possibly others.

Farshad Shirvani, president & CEO of Doubleview, commented, “Year by year, the size of the Hat deposit has been increased by very targeted drilling, bringing it to a footprint of about 1.5km x 1.38km. Our technical and management team has excelled in this endeavor. Furthermore, we’ve discovered numerous additional elements within the Hat deposit that may become significant and enhance the resource: the Hat deposit may be unique among British Columbia’s many. Recent moves by the governments of Canada and British Columbia in recognize the importance of critical minerals and announce targeted infrastructure investments in support of our industry and the many communities and businesses that directly benefit.”

Selected Drill Results Prior to 2024 Exploration:

Every year Doubleview releases details of the year’s drilling and activities. The Company website maintains all relevant information. Visual estimates indicate that 2024 drilling has exceeded expectations and will further validate the resource model and increase the dimensions of the mineral resource envelope.

Table 1 provides previously announced key intersections, including copper equivalents and selected significant intercepts. These results, combined with the ongoing drilling program, are expected to further validate the Hat deposit’s resource model and increase the dimensions of the Hat mineral resource envelope.

Notes:

– Metal equivalents should not be relied upon for future evaluations.
– Drill hole intercepts included in this news release are core lengths that may or may not be true widths of mineralization. It is not possible to determine true widths.
– Parameters used to calculate Copper Equivalent:
Au price (US$/oz): 1900; Ag price (US$/oz): 24; Cu price (US$/lb): 4; Co price (US$/lb): 22.
Au recovery: 89.0%; Ag recovery: 68.0%; Cu recovery: 84.0%; Co recovery: 78.0%.

* Copper Equivalent Calculation
CuEq in % = ([Ag grade in ppm] *24*0.68/31.1035 + [Au grade in ppm] *1900*.89/31.1035 + 0.0001* [Co grade in ppm] *22*0.78*22.0462 + 0.0001* [Cu grade in ppm] *4*0.84*22.0462)/(4*22.0462*0.84). Scandium is not part of the copper equivalent calculation.

Core Samples

Drill cores are processed at the Hat camp by an initial of examination by a senior geologist followed by detailed measurement and half-core sampling. One core half is retained at site for possible future re-examination and/or re-sampling for confirmation purposes, the other half is given a unique identification number, bagged and securely forwarded to an independent ISO-certified analytical laboratory for assaying. All standard QA/QC protocols are observed. Significant drill hole data and assay results will be released when received from the laboratory.

Doubleview maintains a website at www.doubleview.ca. where previous assay results can be viewed.

Experian Launches Global Ultimate Beneficial Ownership Compliance Solution for Enhanced KYC/KYB Verification

Experian Singapore (Experian) recently introduced Global UBO (Ultimate Beneficial Ownership), a comprehensive report to the market, designed to revolutionise due diligence and compliance processes in onboarding, portfolio management, and customer lifecycle management.

This innovative resource provides detailed insights and evaluations of cross-border UBOs in over 200 markets, helping small and medium enterprises (SMEs), corporations and financial institutions navigate the complexities of regulatory compliance and risk management.

In an increasingly globalised and regulated marketplace, the importance of thoroughly understanding the complexities of business structures cannot be overstated. Experian’s Global UBO reports offer a standardised, detailed analysis of UBOs in one comprehensive report. These reports equip organisations with the critical information needed to make well-informed decisions, ensuring they meet the highest standards of due diligence, compliance, Know Your Customer (KYC) and Know Your Business (KYB) needs.

It’s no longer only financial institutions who have to comply with UBO regulations. Regulators are bringing their rules in line with global efforts to promote beneficial ownership transparency across other sectors – namely legal, real estate, corporate service providers and accountancy.

In Singapore, real estate developers with more than four units have to comply with the anti-money laundering and terrorism financing provisions. (ref https://www.ura.gov.sg/Corporate/Guidelines/Developers/Anti-Money-Laundering)

“Experian Global UBO helps businesses know exactly who they are doing business with, ensuring that their business partners comply with national and international laws on money laundering (AML), bribery and corruption, and regulations related to KYC/KYB. It automates and enhances the due diligence process by providing a reliable and comprehensive UBO report,” said Kabir Khanna, General Manager, Experian Credit Services Singapore.

Key benefits of the Global UBO report includes:

  • Enhanced Due Diligence: Comprehensive evaluations help identify potential risks and ensure thorough vetting of UBOs during the onboarding process.
  • Streamlined Portfolio Management: Leads to more effective and efficient risk management and decision-making, fostering a more secure and stable portfolio.
  • Improved Customer Lifecycle Management: Insights ensure that organisations remain compliant with evolving regulations and maintain high standards of customer relationship management.

These reports are an essential tool for financial institutions, regulatory bodies, and businesses committed to maintaining compliance and managing risk in today’s complex environment. By leveraging Experian’s Global UBO reports, organisations can confidently navigate the challenges of regulatory compliance, mitigate risks, and enhance their overall operational integrity.

In conjunction with the launch of Global UBO reports in Southeast Asia, Experian is also introducing a global monitoring service for Credit Reports. These are refreshed investigative credit reports produced over a predetermined period to help monitor critical business relationships in a proactive manner.

Atlas Lithium Progresses Towards Key Permitting

Atlas Lithium Corporation (NASDAQ: ATLX) (“Atlas Lithium” or “Company”), a leading lithium exploration and development company, is pleased to announce that the technical management group of the state of Minas Gerais Environmental Foundation, the governmental agency regulating operational licensing within the state of Minas Gerais (the “Agency”), issued a 161-page technical report which recommends approval of Atlas Lithium’s permit application for its Neves Project. This is a critical step for the Company’s ability to receive the permit to assemble and operate its lithium processing plant and to process the mined ore at the facility.

Atlas Lithium filed its operational permit application on September 1, 2023. Since then, the Company’s Neves Project has been inspected by the Agency’s technical team, an essential step in the permitting process. During the last twelve months, Atlas Lithium received multiple sets of technical questions from the Agency’s staff which the Company addressed timely, leading up to the issuance of the Agency’s comprehensive report with the favorable recommendation for the approval of the Company’s permit application.

Marc Fogassa, CEO of the Company, commented, “This milestone announcement is one of the most significant developments in Atlas Lithium’s history. We extend our gratitude to the numerous experts from the environmental agency of the state of Minas Gerais who thoroughly analyzed our project and concluded with their recommendation for approval of our permit. We are continuing our steady progress towards becoming a producer.”

In other news, preparations continue as planned for the shipment of the Company’s lithium processing plant to Brazil. The plant’s components, manufactured in South Africa, will be assembled in Brazil to process ore from the Company’s Neves Project and produce lithium concentrate, a crucial commercial product in the global lithium supply chain and essential for EV battery production.

“The Atlas Lithium processing plant represents an advancement over traditional designs as it is compact and modular. We are making continued progress in finalizing all necessary pre-shipment steps”, said James Schloffer, a lithium processing expert and member of the Company’s Operations Committee.

The Company’s compact, modular plant design is expected to streamline transportation, installation, and commissioning. Compared to other processing facilities in the lithium industry today, this dense media separation plant will have reduced height, weight, and overall physical footprint. These features will contribute to an environmentally sustainable design that minimizes water usage by maximizing water recycling. Furthermore, Atlas Lithium’s project will employ dry stacking of tailings without the use of dams.

About Atlas Lithium Corporation

Atlas Lithium Corporation (NASDAQ: ATLX) is focused on advancing and developing its 100%-owned hard-rock lithium project in the state of Minas Gerais. In addition, Atlas Lithium has 100% ownership of mineral rights for other battery and critical metals including nickel, rare earths, titanium, graphite, and copper.

Singapore’s construction industry set to outpace the country’s GDP growth rate this year

Construction growth in Singapore sees a 12 percent rise in productivity in 2024, outstripping the country’s modest overall GDP growth rate of 2-3 percent four times over, according to global professional services company, Turner & Townsend[1].

With construction volume anticipated to reach between S$32bn to S$38bn by the end of 2024[2], Turner, and Townsend’s Singapore Market Intelligence cites a series of government backed initiatives and major state projects, such as Changi Airport Terminal 5 (T5) and Tuas Port, are key contributors boosting demand.

Recent built environment incentives including the enhanced Contractors Registration System (CRS), the Productivity Innovation Project (PIP), the Future Energy Fund and Energy Efficient Grant are supporting activity. By year-end, the Singaporean state is expected to contribute to 55 percent of domestic construction projects while the private sector is poised for a contribution of 45 percent.  

Despite ongoing global economic uncertainty and geopolitical instability, the construction market in Singapore is also benefitting from investment in digital infrastructure and the launch of the NEC4[3] contract by the Building Construction Authority (BCA). The latter providing favourable conditions and extensive options for collaborative contracting.

While the overall growth trajectory is positive for the domestic construction sector, there are still challenges to navigate principally the availability of skilled labour. The departure of many construction workers during the pandemic continues to highlight the labour squeeze and increasing costs to secure the right talent.

Khoo Sze Boon, Managing Director, Turner & Townsend in Singapore, said:

“Construction demand in Singapore is on course to surpass last year by a significant margin which is positive for our domestic economy. The industry’s overall positive outlook stems from the series of ongoing government initiatives connected to the built environment including robust schemes to promote funding, foster technological advancements, ensure ease of doing business, and boost sustainable green initiatives.

“While challenges persist, such as manpower shortages and rising costs, optimism around collaborative contracting schemes and the digitization of processes will further improve productivity. We believe now is the time for our industry to really embrace collaborative contracting which will offset rising construction costs and transform the construction sector for the better to ensure long-term resilience.”

[1] GDP growth according to the Ministry of Trade and Industry Singapore, Construction growth according to Building Construction Authority, calculated based on 2024 demand forecast of $38bn over the 2023 demand of $33.8bn.
[2] According to the Building Construction Authority as of 15 January 2024

Eton Solutions, a leader in comprehensive wealth management ERP systems for family offices has announced the launch of EtonGPT™ the world’s first GenAI module for family offices globally.

Several of Eton Solutions clients, including Shade Tree Advisors (US), Todd Family Office (New Zealand) and Aglaia Family Office (Singapore) have been using this new AI enabled platform. It will allow them to access information and conduct in-depth analyses of their investment and asset portfolios. EtonGPT™ doubles up as both an internal search and data extraction tool within the secure centralized database of the cloud-native AtlasFive® ERP platform.

Backed by pending patents, this hybrid AI platform marries the best features of various AI technologies. It incorporates machine learning, expert systems-based business rule engines, and large language models to deliver unparalleled accuracy and insights. It leverages AI-driven data extraction, summarization, generation, inferencing, and transformation to help family offices operate more efficiently and securely.

With the launch of EtonGPT™, the world’s first family office LLM, we are embracing cutting-edge technology and reshaping the future of family office management across the globe. AI is increasingly being deployed across businesses.

In deploying the AI-based technology, which involved leveraging EtonGPT™ to automate our document organization and retention processes, we reduced human involvement by 50% and met our accuracy goals. Similarly, we see countless opportunities to unlock efficiencies in our legacy processes through the use of EtonGPT™ in many verticals, including calculating and posting mark-to-markets on private investments, logging invoice information, and summarizing estate planning documents.”

Andrew Hull, Chief Executive of Todd Family Office, said, “AI is reshaping how we do everything at the Todd Family Office, and our partnership with Eton Solutions has been beneficial. We have faced challenges in fixing AI hallucinations and are worried about the potential misuse of these tech marvels. We’re working with Eton Solutions to pioneer a Responsible AI framework that harnesses the full power of AI with transparency, ethics, and trust at its core. Together, we’re setting the standard for the future of AI for family offices.”

Stephen Hunt, Chief Executive Officer of Aglaia Family Office Pte. Ltd., said, “Aglaia Family Office is proud to be pioneering the setup of automated and AI-powered consolidated portfolio reporting and analytics solutions in Asia. Our commitment goes beyond just automation—we’re focused on the responsible use of AI, ensuring that its integration into our operations enhances not only efficiency but also strengthens timeliness and accuracy. EtonGPT’s early success reassures us that, with Eton Solutions, we’re on the right path.”

As AI’s power is increasingly integrated into modern organizations, Eton Solutions recognizes cybersecurity challenges from traditional threats such as phishing, malware, and data breaches are expanding to include AI-based risks such as deepfakes, misuse, and algorithmic bias. To lessen or mitigate these risks, Eton Solutions is working with its Customer Advisory Board to introduce frameworks that encompass ethics, safety, transparency, trust, and security.
