The document provides information about Queenston Mining's Upper Beaver Gold Project located in Kirkland Lake, Canada. Key details include:
- The project contains an Indicated resource of 1.5 million ounces of gold and an Inferred resource of 1.9 million ounces.
- A PEA showed the Upper Beaver deposit could support an initial average production rate of 120,000 ounces of gold per year.
- The company aims to develop its first standalone mine at Upper Beaver while also utilizing feed from five satellite deposits.
- Queenston has a large land package in the historic Kirkland Lake gold camp and sees potential to expand resources to 8 million ounces total.
Bluestone Resources is a mineral exploration and development company that is focused on advancing its 100-per-cent-owned Cerro Blanco gold and Mita geothermal projects located in Guatemala. A feasibility study on Cerro Blanco returned robust economics with a quick payback. The average annual production is projected to be 146,000 ounces per year over the first three years of production with all-in sustaining costs of $579/oz (as defined per World Gold Council guidelines, less corporate general and administration.

Investor presentation "Low-cost, High
Margin, Gold Copper & Silver Production in WA" delivered by Mutiny Gold's Managing Director Tony James, at the Gold Investment Symposium, held in Sydney, 8th and 9th October 2014
The 3rd annual Resources & Energy Investment Symposium (REIS) is on 19-22 May, once again held in the unique city of Broken Hill; Last year’s event exceeded the expectations of all that attended - including over 350 delegates, 12 keynote speakers and more than 30 resource companies presenting their investment opportunities.
A focus for this year’s symposium will be on the current economic climate including its challenges and opportunities, not only in the Australian resources industry, but Australia’s position in the international market.
Approximate Semantic Matching of Heterogeneous EventsSouleiman Hasan
Event-based systems have loose coupling within space, time and
synchronization, providing a scalable infrastructure for
information exchange and distributed workflows. However,
event-based systems are tightly coupled, via event subscriptions
and patterns, to the semantics of the underlying event schema and
values. The high degree of semantic heterogeneity of events in
large and open deployments such as smart cities and the sensor
web makes it difficult to develop and maintain event-based
systems. In order to address semantic coupling within event-based
systems, we propose vocabulary free subscriptions together with
the use of approximate semantic matching of events. This paper
examines the requirement of event semantic decoupling and
discusses approximate semantic event matching and the
consequences it implies for event processing systems. We
introduce a semantic event matcher and evaluate the suitability of
an approximate hybrid matcher based on both thesauri-based and
distributional semantics-based similarity and relatedness
measures. The matcher is evaluated over a structured
representation of Wikipedia and Freebase events. Initial
evaluations show that the approach matches events with a
maximal combined precision-recall F1 score of 75.89% on
average in all experiments with a subscription set of 7
subscriptions. The evaluation shows how a hybrid approach to
semantic event matching outperforms a single similarity measure
approach.

Curbing Resource Consumption Using Team Based FeedbackSouleiman Hasan
This work details a team-based feedback approach for reducing resource consumption. The approach uses paper printing within office environments as a case study. It communicates the print usage of each participant’s team rather than the participant’s individual print usage. Feedback is provided weekly via emails and contains normative information, along with eco-metrics and team-based comparative statistics. The approach was empirically evaluated to study the effectiveness of the feedback method. The experiment comprised of 16 people belonging to 4 teams with data on their print usage gathered over 58 weeks, using the first 30-35 weeks as a baseline. The study showed a significant reduction in individual printing with an average of 28%. The experiment confirms the underlying hypothesis that participants are persuaded to reduce their print usage in order to improve the overall printing behaviour of their teams. The research provides clear pathways for future research to qualitatively investigate our findings.
Enduro Metals Corp. - Corporate Presentation - July 2020MomentumPR
Enduro Metals is one of the leading exploration companies focused in the heart of British Columbia’s prolific Golden Triangle. The company’s highly qualified geological team has assembled a wealth of information generated by numerous companies each working small pieces of the district-scale property that Enduro Metals has assembled through staking and optioning. Building on prior results, the company’s geological team made several significant discoveries during its initial exploration program in 2019. A gold-rich copper porphyry outlined on the Burgundy Trend has striking similarities to large-scale deposits in the region, including the Red Chris deposit for which Newcrest last year paid US$807 million for a 70% interest. Chachi, a newly discovered area, generated high-grade samples of gold, silver, lead, zinc, nickel, and cobalt over a 9km x 4km area with associated geophysical responses. Diamond drilling in 2019 at the NW Zone demonstrated that the historic gold resource remains open laterally and to depth.
Work in 2020 will seek to further extend the known gold deposit and to investigate the large-scale discovery potential of multiple targets and deposit types.
