Benchmark Metals Inc has announced new drill results from the middle portion of the Cliff Creek deposit (CC Mid) at its Lawyers gold-silver project in British Columbia, which it described as encouraging. The company noted that the area has historically seen less drilling and more moderate results relative to the Cliff Creek North and Cliff Creek South zones of the deposit. However, it said the results from CC Mid, including several other better than expected intervals in recent drilling, may have the potential to positively impact future resource updates from the flagship Lawyers project. It highlighted drill hole 22CCDD014 which intersected two broad intervals, an upper zone grading 1.98 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 48.77 g/t silver or 2.59 g/t gold equivalent (AuEq) over 21.2 metres (m), and a lower zone grading 3.09 g/t gold and 106.50 g/t silver or 4.42 g/t AuEq over 18.81m.

One of the two holes was successful in hitting a "significant" zone of broad low-grade gold mineralization, showing 54.9m of 0.3 grams per tonne (g/t) gold starting from just 6.10m depth, including 13.7m of 0.6 g/t gold and 9.2m of 0.6 g/t gold, interpreted to be a new parallel trend. This intersection also included a near-surface quartz vein zone grading a higher 1.6 g/t gold and 29 g/t silver over 4.6m starting from 6.10m depth.

Aben Resources Ltd has said it expects to start its 2022 exploration program on the Slocan graphite project, 34 kilometres (km) northwest of Castlegar in British Columbia, in late June. In an investor update, the junior resource company said the mineral exploration permit for the project is still under review with the Ministry of Mines, adding that it anticipates the start of ground exploration on the property when weather and ground conditions allow access.

Arrow said the initial technical evaluation indicates six separate oil-bearing reservoirs, two of which were not evident in the Rio Cravo Este-1 (RCE-1) or Rio Cravo Este-2 (RCE-2) wells. Cumulative net pay in all zones exceeded 55 feet. The six separate reservoirs were found in the C7, the Gacheta and the Ubaque, between 7,077 feet and 8,105 feet, it added.
BioVaxys Technology Corp said its France-based bioproduction partner, BioElpida, has completed the creation of multiple OVCAR-3 cell banks as the next step in the Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) process development for the company's BVX-0918 vaccine aimed at treating platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. The Vancouver-based biotechnology company noted that the OVCAR-3 cell line is mandatory for creating the identity assays that will have to be performed on every batch of ovarian cancer vaccines. The assay is required by regulatory bodies in the European Union and the US. The cell line is derived from a human ovarian adenocarcinoma, established from a patient refractory to cisplatin, a chemotherapeutic agent used in late-stage ovarian cancer. Patients whose tumors are innately cisplatin-resistant at the time of initial treatment generally have poor prognosis, which is the patient population target for BVX-0918.
Hillcrest Energy Technologies Inc said it has filed a patent application for a simplified electric vehicle (EV) charging solution that offers improved efficiency and performance. The company said initial proof-of-concept lab testing confirmed the ability of the enhanced powertrain solution to provide universal, backward compatible, bidirectional charging capabilities. With this solution, Hillcrest said EVs would no longer require an onboard charger, which is expected to reduce the cost, complexity, and weight of an EV powertrain and allow an EV to be AC-charged with the maximum power capability of the traction inverter or of the AC charging source regardless of the system voltage.

New Age Metals Inc has announced new assay results for core samples from 2021 drill hole KP21-05 completed at the Dana South Zone at its River Valley palladium project in northern Ontario, which included 1.1 grams per tonne (g/t) palladium + platinum + gold and 0.1% copper over 84 metres (m) from 197m downhole. The mineral exploration and development company said the long, higher-grade intersection of palladium mineralization lying outside the established boundary of Dana South appears to represent an opportunity to expand the zone in a south-southeastwards direction. “The exploration upside potential at River Valley continues to surprise, despite historical and recent drilling of 723 holes totalling 156,000m along the 16 km strike length of the deposit,” the company's CEO Harry Barr said in a statement.
