RETRANSMISSION: Spearmint Comments on China's Ban of Critical Mineral Exports to the USA, including Antimony

RETRANSMISSION: Spearmint Comments on China's Ban of Critical Mineral Exports to the USA, including Antimony

Spearmint Resources Inc. (CSE: SPMT) (OTC Pink: SPMTF) (FSE: A2AHL5) (the "Company" or "Spearmint") wishes to comment on yesterday's announcement of China banning exports of critical minerals including antimony to the United States. As trade tensions escalate between the USA and China, this move clearly emphasizes the urgent need for Western nations to secure reliable long-term sources of these critical minerals which are now at the forefront of the global supply chain crisis.

Antimony is an essential component in semi-conductors, battery storage technology, and has several military applications. Prices of antimony trioxide in Rotterdam had soared by 228% since the beginning of the year to $39,000 a metric ton on Nov. 28, data from information provider Argus showed(1). The move is a considerable escalation of tensions in supply chains where access to raw material units is already tight in the West(1).

James Nelson, President of Spearmint stated, "This recent move by China is a clear signal of the importance for Western nations to explore for and develop a domestic supply of these critical minerals. Year to date, antimony prices have more than doubled, making it one of the best performing commodities this year and this recent move by China will likely further exacerbate this price surge. Management is currently formulating a plan to begin work on the George Lake South Antimony Project and also intends to update the market on Spearmints crypto diversification plan within 7-10 days. These are truly exciting times for Spearmint shareholders."

On November 27, 2024, Spearmint acquired the George Lake South Antimony Project in New Brunswick, Canada. This project consists of 1,945 contiguous acres prospective for antimony. This new project is in the direct vicinity of the Lake George Antimony Mine in New Brunswick which was operated intermittently from 1876 to 1996 and was once the largest primary antimony producer in North America.

Sona Nanotech's THT Cancer Studies Demonstrates Strong Efficacy in Third Preclinical Study and Plans for First-in-human Early Feasibility Study

Sona Nanotech's THT Cancer Studies Demonstrates Strong Efficacy in Third Preclinical Study and Plans for First-in-human Early Feasibility Study

Sona Nanotech Inc. (CSE: SONA) (OTCQB: SNANF) (the "Company", "Sona") announces results from its most recent preclinical study of its Targeted Hyperthermia Therapy ("THT") which uses the Company's patented, biocompatible gold nanorods ("GNRs") to treat certain solid cancer tumors, shrinking them and acting as an immune stimulator. Building on its success in melanoma and breast cancer studies, the Company's third preclinical efficacy study was conducted in an immunologically 'cold' colorectal cancer model ("CT26"), a model that represents the majority of human colon cancers, which do not typically respond to current standard of care immunotherapies.

In this preliminary study, whereas no mice that were given standard immunotherapy alone showed any response, 100% of mice in the THT treatment group responded to the same immunotherapy with 50% (4 out of 8) of those tumors eliminated within 12 days of treatment, as shown by the green line in Figure 1, below.
