    Asterion Cannabis Inc. (“Asterion” or the “Company”), announces that on December 19, 2018, the Company’s wholly-owned Australian subsidiary (“Asterion Australia”), filed an application with the Australian Government Office of Drug Control (“ODC”) to obtain licences for the cultivation, production and research of medicinal cannabis.

    Asterion Cannabis Inc. (“Asterion” or the “Company”), announces that on December 19, 2018, the Company’s wholly-owned Australian subsidiary (“Asterion Australia”), filed an application with the Australian Government Office of Drug Control (“ODC”) to obtain licences for the cultivation, production and research of medicinal cannabis.

    The medicinal cannabis research license would allow Asterion Australia to begin developing Standard Operating Procedures (“SOPs”) for its research platform and to commence research into clonal propagation techniques. The cultivation and production licences are expected to allow the Company to commence the controlled growing of cannabis plants, and to formulate medicinal cannabis-derived bulk active pharmaceutical ingredients (“APIs”). The APIs are anticipated to be formulated as pharmaceutical salts and, separately, for incorporation into various dosage forms, including tablets, capsules, oral wafers, patches, creams, oral sprays or topical soluble gels.

The Company is focused on the future of precision agriculture and aims to produce the highest quality genetically uniform cannabis strains, at an affordable price.
