CMS (867.HK/8A8.SG) : New Drug for Renal Anaemia Desidustat Tablets Approved in China

SHENZHEN, CHINA, Mar 13, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - China Medical System Holdings Limited (“CMS”, or the “Group”) is pleased to announce that on 13 March 2026, new drug for renal anaemia Desidustat Tablets (the “Product”) has been approved for marketing in China by the National Medical Products Administration of the People’s Republic of China (NMPA). The Product is a novel, oral HypoxiaInducible Factor-Prolyl Hydroxylase Inhibitor (HIF-PHI) for treating anaemia in non-dialysis adult, Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients.The approval of Desidustat Tablets will further strengthen the Group’s overall layout in the field of nephrology, and synergize with the marketed innovative drug Velphoro (Sucroferric Oxyhydroxide Chewable Tablets, indicated for CKD hyperphosphatemia). Through the efficient linkage of nephrology expert resources and channel networks, the Group is expected to rapidly promote the large-scale clinical application of Desidustat Tablets, providing differentiated treatment options for Chinese CKD patients with renal anaemia and making a positive contribution to the Group’s performance.More information about Desidustat Tablets and Renal AnaemiaAs a novel oral HIF-PHI, the Product’s mechanism of action promotes erythropoiesis through increasing endogenous erythropoietin, improving iron availability and reducing hepcidin. Its China Phase III clinical trial has demonstrated positive results. The primary endpoint of the haemoglobin (Hb) mean change from baseline to Week 7-9 has indicated that, Desidustat is more effective than placebo in increasing Hb level. Results from the extension study demonstrate that the Product can maintain Hb level within the target range over the long term with acceptable safety. In addition, the Product significantly reduces hepcidin levels and ameliorates iron metabolism disorders.There is still a large unmet need in the treatment of anaemia in CKD patients in China. It is estimated that there are more than 120 million CKD patients in China[1]. Anaemia is one of the frequent complications of CKD, which exhibits a progressively increasing incidence with disease progression. A survey in China showed that the prevalences of anaemia in patients at CKD stage 1 to 5 were 22.0%, 37.0%, 45.4%, 85.1%, and 98.2%, respectively[2]. The target-achieving rate (the Hb level reaching the target value (110~120g / L)) has increased to 51.5% for haemodialysis CKD patients with anaemia[3], but is still only 8.2% for anaemia patients in non-dialysis CKD[4]. The Product is administrated orally, thus expecting to improve the treatment compliance of patients and to meet the unmet treatment needs in the field of CKD anaemia.Desidustat Tablets have been approved for marketing in India.CMS INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT LIMITED, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Group, obtained an exclusive license for the Product from Zydus Lifesciences Limited (earlier known as Cadila Healthcare Limited) pursuant to a License Agreement with an effective date of 20 January 2020.The Group adheres to its core strategy of “innovation-driven”, having established a tiered and multi-dimensional innovation product portfolio with abundant reserves: 7 new drugs have been approved for marketing, 6 are currently under marketing review, and nearly 20 projects are about to initiate or are progressing through clinical trials.

CITIC Resources Deepens Dual-Engine Strategy of ‘Investment + Trading’, Continues to Promote High-Quality Development

HONG KONG, Mar 13, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – CITIC Resources Holdings Limited (hereinafter referred to as CITIC Resources or the Company, or the Group when its subsidiaries are included; Stock Code: 1205.HK) has announced its annual results for the year ended 31 December 2025 (the “Year”). During the Year, the Group actively responded to the complex international environment and cyclical industry pressures. Systematically advancing initiatives in “upstream asset deployment, expansion of trading business, and enhancement of production and operations”, the Group deepened its dual-engine development model of “investment + trading”, stabilised its core operations, cultivated a second growth curve, and demonstrated robust operational and developmental resilience.As a key growth driver for the Group, the oil and gas trading business within the import and export segment expanded steadily during the Year, achieving a significant milestone with a trading volume exceeding 20.0 million barrels and revenue reaching approximately HK$11.34 billion. Meanwhile, the Group broke the long-standing monopoly of the sales channel of crude oil, enhancing the market value of its oil and gas properties. In the non-oil-and-gas business, the Group consistently prioritises refined and proactive management of its equity investments as a core task and actively conveyed its philosophy of improving quality and enhancing efficiency to the operators. Notably, the value of shares held in Aloca Corporation (“Aloca”) increased by approximately 46.3% during the Year. On the oil and gas front, focusing on refined reservoir management and continuous scientific research breakthroughs, the Group achieved stable production and increased reserves. It comprehensively deepened lean management throughout the production process, coupled with the implementation of cost-reduction and efficiency-enhancement measures, propelled continuous improvements in management standards and operational efficiency across all phases of oil and gas projects from exploration, development to production.During the Year, the Group achieved revenue of approximately HK$14.96 billion (2024: approximately HK$9.50 billion), representing a year-on-year increase of approximately 57.6%. Impacted by factors such as a decline in the average selling price of crude oil and coal, and higher raw material costs, profit attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company amounted to approximately HK$0.17 billion (2024: HK$0.57 billion). Despite that, all of the Group’s segments recorded profits for the Year and the Group continued to maintain a strong financial position with cash and deposits of approximately HK$3.52 billion as at 31 December 2025 (31 December 2024: HK$2.03 billion). As at 31 December 2025, the Group had total assets of approximately HK$14.61 billion, and net assets attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company of approximately HK$8.79 billion. The gearing ratio and interest-bearing debt ratio were approximately 38.8% and 23.5% respectively, with a return on equity (annualised) of approximately 2.0%.As part of its efforts to optimise its asset structure, the Group disposed of shares in Alcoa in January and March 2026, totalling approximately 2.17% of Alcoa’s total issued shares[1]. By seizing the opportunity to monetise its investment at a high valuation, the Group continues to create greater value for its shareholders.Mr. Hao Weibao, Executive Director, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CITIC Resources, said: “Looking ahead to 2026, the Group will focus on key areas such as the development, production and trading of oil and gas, as well as investments in the aluminum industry chain, deepen synergies among trading, investment and production management, and continue to implement the business strategy of consolidating the existing core business and pursuing dual-engine expansion through ‘investment + trading’.To consolidate our existing principal business, the Group will continue to enhance lean production and operational management to increase reserves and output, while steadily expanding production and sales scale. The Group will also intensify the introduction and application of new processes and technologies, leveraging technological innovation to empower high-quality development of our core businesses and reinforce our core growth foundation.On the dual-engine driver of ‘investment + trading’ expansion front, the Group will continue to track and position in high-quality oil and gas assets and the aluminium-centric key metals industry chain. Trading operations and investment projects will be deeply integrated: the investment arm will secure equity resources, while the trading arm will achieve market-oriented sales. This approach will also enhance our market sensitivity, enabling us to identify and acquire high-quality upstream resources and assets, thereby creating a virtuous cycle in which ‘investment acquires resources and trading converts value’. The Group is committed to implementing these development strategies and will continue to deliver long-term and stable returns to our shareholders.”[1]Details regarding the disposal were disclosed in the announcements and circular dated 16 January, 6 February, and 5 March.For details of CITIC Resources’ 2025 annual results, please refer to the Group’s annual results announcement on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the Group’s website.About CITIC Resources Holdings Limited (Stock Code: 1205.HK)CITIC Resources Holdings Limited has been listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange since 1997.

CMS (867.HK/8A8.SG): Ruxolitinib Phosphate Cream (Lumirix(R)) Achieves Initial Prescriptions in Multiple Regions in China for Patients with Vitiligo

SHENZHEN, CHINA, Mar 13, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - On 12 March 2026, China Medical System Holdings Limited (“CMS” or the “Group”) is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, Dermavon Holdings Limited (“Dermavon”, an innovative pharmaceutical company specialized in skin health, which is applying for a separate listing on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited) has its innovative prescription medicine ruxolitinib phosphate cream (Lumirix®) (the “Product”, marketed as Opzelura® in the U.S., Europe and Canada) recorded the initial prescriptions for vitiligo patients across 30 provincial-level regions. The prescriptions cover approximately a thousand influential public and private medical institutions in the field of skin health and disease management, including Huashan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai Skin Disease Hospital, Dermatology Hospital of Southern Medical University, Second People's Hospital of Chengdu, The First Bethune Hospital of Jilin University, The Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, United Family Healthcare Group, among others*. Meanwhile, the Product has become concurrently accessible via over 1,300 offline drugstores as well as JD.com e-commerce platform. *Hospital rankings are listed in no particular order.As the first topical JAK inhibitor approved in China for the treatment of vitiligo, ruxolitinib phosphate cream has officially launched its large-scale clinical application today, marking a breakthrough in China’s vitiligo treatment landscape and ushering in a new era of precision targeted therapy for vitiligo. Supported by safety and efficacy fully demonstrated in clinical studies, the Product is expected to bring new hope for repigmentation to millions of vitiligo patients.The rapid commercialization progress of ruxolitinib phosphate cream underscores strong product operation capabilities of CMS (including Dermavon), while also reflecting the robust supports from China’s regulatory reforms in accelerating patient access to clinically urgently needed innovative drugs. Benefiting from the integrated healthcare ecosystem of the Hainan Free Trade Port and the “Urgently Needed Imported Drugs for Clinical Use” policy, the Product initiated pilot clinical use in August 2023 at Boao Super Hospital within the Boao Lecheng International Medical Tourism Pilot Zone. Pilot usage subsequently expanded to designated medical institutions across the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area, Beijing-Tianjin region and other regions. In accordance with the relevant regulations of China’s real-world data application pilot project, as well as supported by the Hainan Provincial Medical Products Administration and the Administration of the Boao Lecheng International Medical Tourism Pilot Zone, the Product has accumulated real-world clinical data in China under pilot application, significantly accelerating its clinical, registration and approval timelines. The Product received its Drug Registration Certificate on January 30, 2026 (approval date: January 27, 2026).Following its approval, in less than 1.5 months (including the Chinese New Year holiday), the initial prescriptions for ruxolitinib phosphate cream have been issued across multiple regions and hospitals, reflecting the highly efficient collaboration and concerted efforts among CMS teams, regulatory authorities and business partners. With robust support from the cross-departmental coordination mechanism of the Beijing Daxing Airport Economic Zone Joint Administrative Committee, once import conditions were met, the Product completed customs clearance approval, sampling and related customs procedures within 24 hours, and obtained the drug testing report within 7 working days, representing efficient execution and acceleration for the innovative drugs in China. During this process, the Beijing Municipal Medical Products Administration proactively provided end-to-end policy guidance; the government service center has efficiently completed customs clearance filing; the Beijing Institute for Drug Control has conducted methodological pre-testing to accelerate timelines for innovative drug, and continuous worked during the Chinese Spring Festival; and Daxing Airport Customs provided specialized pre-guidance on declaration and swiftly completed customs review and release. Through parallel workflows and coordinated execution, all parties collectively pressed the “fast-forward button” for the Product’s commercialization, helping this urgently needed innovative therapy reach patients faster.As the Product enters the large-scale clinical application stage, it is expected to further strengthen Dermavon’s comprehensive dermatology solutions and brand value. Building on its leadership in skin health, Dermavon will continue to improve accessibility of ruxolitinib phosphate cream to benefit more vitiligo patients and steadfastly safeguard public skin health through innovation.About VitiligoVitiligo is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by depigmentation of the skin, which results from the loss of pigment-producing cells known as melanocytes. The discolored areas usually get bigger with time and the condition could influence skin on any part of the patients’ body. Vitiligo usually affects the appearance of patients, especially on exposed areas such as the face and neck. According to a study that involved over 1,000 diagnosed vitiligo patients, over 45% of patients have facial involvement, and over 20% of patients have neck involvement[1].The obvious presence of white patches may make patients feel that their appearance has been compromised, which in turn materially affects their social life, and is associated with a significantly higher incidence of mental health disorders; accordingly, there is an urgent need for effective treatment options for vitiligo[2].It is estimated that there are approximately 10.3 million vitiligo patients in China and non-segmental vitiligo patients account for approximately 8.2 million[1]. Existing therapies, such as topical corticosteroids (TCS) and topical calcineurin inhibitors (TCIs), have clinical limitations, with adverse reactions or limited efficacy with long-term use. Ruxolitinib phosphate cream successfully fills the gap in targeted drug treatment for vitiligo and is of great landmark significance.More Information About Ruxolitinib Phosphate CreamRuxolitinib phosphate cream (Opzelura®), a novel cream formulation of the selective JAK1/JAK2 inhibitor ruxolitinib developed by Incyte, is the first and only drug approved for the repigmentation of non-segmental vitiligo by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA)[3,4]. In the U.S., the Product is indicated for the topical treatment of nonsegmental vitiligo in adult and pediatric patients aged 12 years and older, and for the short-term and non-continuous chronic treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis (AD) in non-immunocompromised adult and pediatric patients aged 2 years and older whose disease is not well controlled with topical prescription therapies, or when those therapies are not advisable. In Europe, ruxolitinib phosphate cream is approved for the topical treatment of non-segmental vitiligo with facial involvement in adults and adolescents from 12 years of age. In China, besides vitiligo indication, the product’s NDA for the treatment of mild-to-moderate AD in adults and pediatric patients aged 2 years and older is also under regulatory review, which has been included in the Priority Review List and is expected to accelerate the Product’s AD review process for marketing approval.The Group, through the subsidiary of Dermavon entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement with Incyte for ruxolitinib phosphate cream on 2 December 2022, obtaining an exclusive license to develop, register and commercialize the Product in Mainland China, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Macau Special Administrative Region, Taiwan Region and eleven Southeast Asian countries (the “Territory”) and a non-exclusive license to manufacture the Product in the Territory. The subsidiary of Dermavon has sublicensed the relevant rights for the Product outside of Mainland China to the Group (excluding Dermavon and its subsidiary).Incyte has worldwide rights for the development and commercialization of ruxolitinib phosphate cream (excluding territories in which exclusive rights have already been licensed), marketed in the United States and Europe as Opzelura®. Opzelura® and the Opzelura® logo are registered trademarks of Incyte.About CMSCMS is a platform company linking pharmaceutical innovation and commercialization with strong product lifecycle management capability, dedicated to providing competitive products and services to meet unmet medical needs.CMS focuses on the global first-in-class (FIC) and best-in-class (BIC) innovative products, and efficiently promotes the clinical research, development and commercialization of innovative products, enabling the continuous transformation of scientific research into clinical practices to benefit patients.CMS deeply engages in several specialty therapeutic fields, and has developed proven commercialization capabilities, extensive networks and expert resources, resulting in leading academic and market positions for its major marketed products. CMS continues to promote the in-depth development in its advantageous specialty fields, strengthening the competitiveness of the cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic/ gastroenterology/ ophthalmology/ skin health businesses, bringing economies of scale in specialty fields. Among them, the skin health business (Dermavon) has become a leading enterprise in its field, and is proposed to be listed independently on the SEHK. Meanwhile, CMS continuously promotes the operation and development of its integrated R&D, manufacturing and commercialization chain in Southeast Asia and the Middle East, capturing growth opportunities in emerging markets to support the high-quality and sustainable development of the Group.Reference:1.

Guoquan Achieves Simultaneous Growth in Scale and Profitability, Core Operating Profit Increases by 48.2% in 2025

HONG KONG, Mar 13, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – 12 March 2026, Guoquan Food (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. ("Guoquan" or the "Company"; stock code: 2517.HK), a leading one-stop home meal products brand in China, announced its annual results for the year ended 31 December 2025, which have been reviewed by the Audit Committee of the Board.Adhering to the strategic positioning of "community central kitchen" in 2025, the Company successfully established a holistic instant retail store network through a multi-channel, multi-scenario omni-channel layout and the deep integration of online and offline operating models. The Company continuously delved into consumers' demand, developed and iterated a diverse suite of product portfolios, deepened refined store operation and management, and strengthened the construction of a membership ecosystem, effectively enhancing store operational efficiency and market competitiveness. Concurrently, the Company continued to deepen its industrial layout and promote the integrated closed-loop construction of "production, supply and marketing", achieving stable development throughout the year.For the year ended 31 December 2025, the Company's revenue amounted to RMB7,810.0 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 20.7%. Gross profit reached RMB1,686.6 million, a year-on-year increase of 19.0%. Net profit was RMB453.9 million, a significant year-on-year increase of 88.2%. Core operating profit (adjusted for non-recurring items such as gains or losses on fair value changes on unlisted convertible redeemable preferred shares and donations for fire rescue in Tai Po, Hong Kong) was RMB460.7 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 48.2%. Basic and diluted earnings per share were RMB0.1630, a substantial year-on-year increase of 93.8%.Continuously Strengthening Omni-channel Instant Retail: Offline Expansion and Online Engagement Drive GrowthAs of 31 December 2025, the Company's total number of stores nationwide reached 11,566, a net increase of 1,416 stores from 10,150 as at the end of 2024, covering 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities. In terms of regional store layout, the Company achieved a net increase of 1,004 township-level stores in 2025. Addressing the consumption characteristics and needs of township markets, the Company developed differentiated product structures and store displays, accurately aligning with consumer demands in lower-tier markets and further enhancing township market penetration. Concurrently, the Company continued to deploy smart retail scenarios in mid-to-high-tier markets, completing the intelligent and unmanned transformation and upgrade of over 3,000 retail stores in 2025, achieving synergistic development between lower-tier and mid-to-high-tier markets.To empower franchisees, facilitate their sales growth, and further expand consumer reach while offering a more flexible shopping experience, the Company continuously provides support and guidance to franchisees in core areas such as store operations and business development. Leveraging the Company's Guoquan APP, WeChat mini-program, third-party food delivery platforms and social commerce platforms (such as Douyin), a multi-level online sales network has been established. In 2025, the Company achieved over 9.41 billion impressions on platforms through its multi-level Douyin accounts matrix. Stores generated GMV of RMB1.49 billion via the Douyin channel, representing a year-on-year increase of 75.3%.Membership Ecosystem Continuously Improved; Product Portfolio Enhances in Scenarization and RichnessIn 2025, the operation of the Guoquan membership program yielded significant results, further releasing the value of the membership ecosystem. During the Reporting Period, the number of the Company's registered members reached approximately 64.9 million, a year-on-year increase of 57.1%, demonstrating rapid expansion of the membership base. The prepaid card business also achieved stable growth, with the value stored in prepaid cards amounting to approximately RMB1.2 billion during the Reporting Period, a year-on-year increase of 22.3%. This indicates continuously improving member stickiness and consumption contribution, forging a closer connection with consumers.Relying on its substantial membership base, the Company persistently pursues innovation in its product offerings, consistently upholding the business philosophy of providing consumers with "tasty, convenient and value-for-money" products. It continuously enriches its product portfolio and iterates new products to comprehensively meet consumers' diverse dining needs. As of 31 December 2025, the Company had introduced 282 new SKUs of hot pot and barbecue products. It created multiple scenarized meal suites such as the "Barbecue Camping Container Set", "Crayfish Feast Set", and "Six Popular Hot Pot Sets", achieving deep integration of products and consumption scenarios. Furthermore, the Company expanded its product categories within the drinks and beverage consumption scenario, launching products such as NFC fruit juices, craft beer, and flavored tea beverages. This continuously enhances the richness and diversification of the product matrix, further perfecting the one-stop meal products supply system.Deepening Industrial Layout; Strengthening Digitalized Supply Chain ControlGuoquan continues to promote the integrated closed-loop construction of "production, supply and marketing". Adopting a "one-product-one-factory" strategy, it further deepens the breadth and depth of its industrial layout, providing solid production capacity support for business development. As of 31 December 2025, the Company possessed seven food ingredient production plants, covering core categories such as condiments, meatballs, paste and aquatic products, and beef products, forming a comprehensive and well-defined production capacity matrix. Concurrently, the construction of the Company's food production base in Danzhou, Hainan Province, officially commenced. This base will further expand its geographical coverage, optimize the supply chain's radiation radius, and strengthen the national production capacity layout and logistics reach.This solid industrial foundation continuously improves the operational efficiency of the digitalized supply chain. Based on the supply chain system operating from factory to central warehouse and to retail stores, the Company can monitor supply and demand dynamics from the procurement end to the store end, and closely manage inventory levels, thereby achieving efficient management of the entire supply chain. As of 31 December 2025, the Company had deployed 20 digitalized central warehouses across China, achieving swift product circulation through digital stock and barcode management. Simultaneously, the digitalization of the supply chain covering core segments such as production, procurement, warehousing, and logistics allows for precise monitoring of supply-demand dynamics and inventory levels, ensuring the timely supply of products to stores in the Chinese mainland. This comprehensively enhances the overall operational efficiency of the supply chain, solidifying core barriers in cost control and quality assurance.Six Core Strategic Directions: Continuously Advancing Business UpgradesIn 2026, Guoquan targets that the total number of stores will exceed 14,500, representing a net increase of over 2,934 stores, with an estimated store closure rate of less than 4%. It targets high-single-digit growth in store efficiency, and the number of registered members is targeted to exceed 95 million. The Company targets that the growth rate of core operating profit will be significantly higher than that of its revenue.First, Fully expand the sales network with four stores jointly advancing with concerted efforts. Guoquan will continue to build a multi-level sales network, accelerate the expansion of large stores in townships, practice the philosophy of "food equality", and precisely meet the consumption needs of residents in county and township markets. Concurrently, it will explore innovative store formats and upgrade the franchisee management system to build a symbiotic and mutually beneficial franchise ecosystem.Second, Deepen the strategy of community central kitchen to expand community consumption scenarios. The Company will focus on creating food retail solutions for "four meals a day", continuously diversifying its product categories and building a more competitive product matrix to achieve organic sales growth while further consolidating its advantages in lower-tier market layout.Third, Deepen membership operation and IP to advance the community brand project. The Company will continue to advance refined membership operation, deeply integrate media resources such as popular TV commercials, offline community advertising and social media and e-commerce platforms (such as Douyin) to expand its membership base, and improve the membership rights system to enhance member loyalty and stickiness. Furthermore, it will further deepen the operation of its brand IP image "Guobao" to strengthen brand value and emotional resonance with consumers.Fourth, AI big data empower stores to innovate smart retail scenarios. By integrating Internet of Things, big data, and AI technology, the Company will drive the smart operation of stores with data. It will promote the in-depth integration of the Guoquan stir-fry business format with smart cooking machines, accurately analyze consumers' dining habits, optimize dish parameters and cooking procedures for smart cooking machines, realize the standardized production of stir-fry dishes, and optimize the consumer experience.Fifth, Continue to promote the industrial layout and strengthen the advantage of one-product-one-factory. Adhering to the "one-product-one-factory" strategy, Guoquan will further integrate upstream resources domestically and internationally, accelerate the construction of the food production base in Danzhou, Hainan Province, increase R&D investment, and launch more product portfolios with a high quality-price ratio.Sixth, Develop overseas markets in phases to deliver the good taste of China.

Founders Metals Upgrades Lower Antino to Advanced Target; Hits 65.9 m of 1.16 g/t Gold

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - March 12, 2026) - Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) (OTCQX: FDMIF) (FSE: 9DL0) ("Founders" or the "Company") announces that Lower Antino has been upgraded from Intermediate to Advanced Target status - the same internal classification* as Upper Antino - at its Antino Gold Project in southeastern Suriname (Figure 1). The upgrade follows cumulative drilling of 50 diamond drill holes including eight new holes reported here that continue to demonstrate broad, continuous gold mineralization, highlighted by 65.9 metres (m) of 1.16 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) within a broader envelope of 115.0 m of 0.83 g/t Au from surface in drill hole LA046.HighlightsLower Antino upgraded to Advanced Target status with 50 drill holes released to date with an additional 10 holes pending assays and further expansion drilling underwayBest intercept to date: 65.9 m of 1.16 g/t Au within 115.0 m of 0.83 g/t Au from surface (LA046)Broad mineralized envelopes confirmed: 113.5 m of 0.34 g/t Au from surface including 30.0 m of 0.82 g/t Au (LA044)Intrusion-hosted gold mineralization intersected in all eight drill holes reported in this release; mineralization remains open along strike and at depthColin Padget, President & CEO, commented, "Lower Antino's upgrade from Intermediate to an Advanced Target - now sharing the same classification as Upper Antino - reflects consistent, broad gold mineralization across a growing number of drill holes. LA046 returning 65.9 metres of 1.16 g/t gold within a 115-metre mineralized envelope is the best intercept to date at this target and underscores the scale and continuity of the Lower Antino intrusion-hosted gold system. With gold in every hole and consistently wide intercepts, Lower Antino is emerging as a meaningful contributor to the district's overall potential. While our focus remains on exploration and expansion drilling, Lower Antino's advancement to the same classification as Upper Antino means it is expected to be considered for inclusion in any future resource estimate for the district."Lower Antino - Upgraded to Advanced TargetThe Company reports assay results from eight diamond drill holes (LA043 to LA050) at the Lower Antino target, located approximately 3.5 km east of the Upper Antino deposit (Figure 1). All eight holes intersected gold mineralization, with results highlighted by 65.9 m of 1.16 g/t Au within 115.0 m of 0.83 g/t Au in LA046 (Table 1). The 115-metre intercept in LA046 begins at surface and represents an up-dip expansion of the previously released 90.0 m of 1.02 g/t Au in LA041, confirming the continuity and growth potential of the mineralized zone.Based on cumulative drilling results, Founders has upgraded Lower Antino from Intermediate Target to Advanced Target status, ranking it on the same tier as Upper Antino in terms of overall target quality and scale potential. The upgrade reflects the demonstrated continuity of gold mineralization across numerous drill sections and identification of multiple parallel, northeast-trending mineralized zones over approximately 1.9 km of drill-defined strike length within a broader 1.5 km by 2.8 km gold-in-auger anomaly.The target is open along strike and at depth with drilling ongoing to the south and southeast at regular 100 to 200 metre steps. Overall, gold mineralization remains consistent with previous Lower Antino drill results and is hosted in intensely sericite-altered, sheared tonalite with disseminated pyrite and quartz-pyrite veining. The southernmost hole in this release (LA050), intersected 24.0 m of 0.57 g/t Au and represents approximately 200 metres of southward expansion of the mineralized system.

Unlocking the huge potential of China’s silver economy

HONG KONG, Mar 12, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – As the average age of the global population continues to rise, the Chinese Mainland is now home to the world’s largest number of seniors. Recognising this, the country’s 15th Five-Year Plan calls for proactive measures to address the challenges of an increasingly ageing population. The silver economy is set to be one of the vital engines for the mainland's next wave of economic growth.The Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) has released a new consumer survey report, Chinese Mainland Silver Economy Opportunities, that details the strong spending power of the mainland’s affluent, middle-class senior consumers, as well as the vast untapped potential of this particular sector of society. With securing "happiness" and ensuring "quality" as their spending priorities, the survey shows that such consumers regard Hong Kong-made products as guaranteed to be authentic, while the city’s services sector is seen as professional and reliable. As a result, many of these consumers pronounce a willingness to pay a "Hong Kong premium".Believing that the continued expansion of the mainland's silver economy represents significant opportunities for Hong Kong businesses, Bruce Pang, HKTDC Director of Research, said: "Among other priorities, the 15th Five-Year Plan focuses on boosting domestic demand as a means of driving economic growth. Inevitably, this will create opportunities for Hong Kong companies looking to expand into the Chinese Mainland market.“By gaining a deeper understanding of the consumption patterns of mainland seniors, particularly those in the higher-spending middle-class and affluent segments, Hong Kong businesses will be able to effectively penetrate the domestic market."To gain a more in-depth understanding of the development opportunities in the country’s silver economy, HKTDC surveyed more than 2,000 middle-class/affluent senior consumers in various mainland cities last year. The broad cross-section of respondents included those in their 50s starting to plan their retirement, those entering retirement in their 60s, and the older post-retirement population (aged 70 and above). According to the survey’s findings, respondents' average monthly expenditure on daily consumer goods and services was approximately RMB7,000, rising to RMB8,000 for those in first-tier cities.Commenting on the findings of the survey, Wing Chu, the HKTDC’s Deputy Director of Research, who led the study, said: "Currently, the Chinese Mainland's silver economy is valued at about RMB7 trillion – some 6% of overall GDP. This is projected to surge to RMB30 trillion by 2035, indicating the segment’s huge development potential.“The survey also showed that more than half of such consumers had purchased Hong Kong products or services, consequently holding Hong Kong brands in particularly high regard. It was also notable that 78% of respondents were willing to pay a premium for Hong Kong-sourced products, while 84% were willing to do so in the case of the city’s services sector. Typically, respondents were willing to pay a 16.4% premium on products and 15.4% premium on services, with those in first-tier cities happy to pay an even higher percentage for many types of products and services.”Hong Kong brands enjoy stellar reputationOverall, many of the mainland’s senior consumers have a highly positive view of Hong Kong brands, with the city’s products celebrated for their quality and authenticity, and its services for their professionalism and reliability. On the product front, 61% of respondents had purchased Hong Kong products in the past year, including health foods (24%), luxury goods (18%) and beauty and personal care products (17%). In terms of future purchases, respondents expressed the greatest interest in Hong Kong health foods, leisure foods and beverages.Regarding the city’s services, 54% of senior respondents said they had utilised Hong Kong services in the past year, including beauty and personal care services (25%), travel to Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan (22%) and financial and wealth management services (20%). Over the next 12 months, the most sought-after Hong Kong services were said to relate to health and wellness services, followed by beauty and personal care services.Digging deeper into the preferences of such consumers, HKTDC Economist Eric Chu said: "When choosing products and services, happiness is the priority for Chinese Mainland seniors, closely followed by value for money. With this in mind, Hong Kong businesses can leverage the silver economy by capitalising on the strong reputation and professional advantages of the city’s brands.“Specifically, they should consider expanding into the higher-spending first and second-tier cities, while targeting the younger segment of the senior population. Enhancing the offline experience and fostering word-of-mouth recommendations, alongside optimised promotional efforts, will also help Hong Kong businesses stand out in the mainland’s rapidly growing silver market.”Silver generation shaping a “blue ocean” of consumptionTaking a more in-depth look at the survey findings, 65% of respondents prioritised products or services that would enhance their leisure or bring them happiness, while 63% valued reasonable pricing and good value for money, and 62% focused more on the practicality and durability of the products or services on offer. Collectively, this indicates that mainland seniors are particularly concerned about their health and quality of life, while also valuing cost-effectiveness and functionality, marking them out as a notably mature and rational consumer group.In terms of product consumption, 23.3% of respondents most frequently purchased food and beverages, followed by home products (12.6%) and clothing (12.5%). In the case of services, 20.3% utilised body wellness services most often, followed by beauty and personal care services (16.7%) and leisure and entertainment services (13.1%).In addition, despite the popularity of online shopping across the mainland, the survey showed that physical stores remain the primary consumption channel for the more elderly demographic. For such consumers, offline experiences, in-person consultations and a sense of trust in products and services remain prime considerations.To help businesses capitalise on opportunities arising from the silver economy market, the HKTDC has incorporated various related elements into many of its exhibitions and forums. This allows relevant companies to showcase their products and technologies, while also giving them the opportunity to explore the latest industry developments through a series of related seminar programmes.Aligning with this approach, a thematic seminar on healthy ageing was held as part of the Asia Summit on Global Health, while the Rehabilitation and Elderly Care zone at the Hong Kong International Medical and Healthcare Fair featured the latest gerontechnology products. The Hong Kong Electronics Fair (Autumn Edition) also sought to showcase fitness and health products relevant to the senior market.In addition, the Hong Kong Toys & Games Fair, held in January this year, introduced a new “Happy Ageing” label for silver market products, making it easier for buyers to identify toys and related products designed specifically for older consumers. The Asia Toys & Games Forum, held during the fair, hosted a discussion by a number of international experts on the optimum design of toys for the elderly, while also offering many other insights into the silver-focused toy market.Looking ahead, the HKTDC will continue to provide comprehensive support to the business sector, enabling enterprises to further explore and develop opportunities in the growing silver economy market.ReferencesReport link: https://research.hktdc.com/en/article/MjI2ODIyMDg0NwHKTDC Research: http://research.hktdc.com/enPhoto download: https://bit.ly/4shpQjOHKTDC Director of Research Bruce Pang (centre), Deputy Director of Research Wing Chu (left) and Economist Eric Chu (right) presented key findings from the "Chinese Mainland Silver Economy Opportunities" consumer survey reportHKTDC Media Room: http://mediaroom.hktdc.com/enMedia enquiriesFor enquiries, please contact:Raconteur PR Agency:Betsy TseTel: (852) 9742 7338Email: betsytse@raconteur.hkMolisa LauTel: (852) 6187 7786Email: molisalau@raconteur.hkHKTDC Communication and Public Affairs Department:Clayton LauwTel: (852) 2584 4472Email: clayton.y.lauw@hktdc.orgAbout HKTDCThe Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) is a statutory body established in 1966 to promote, assist and develop Hong Kong's trade.
