当局称,马修·佩里死亡案至少已逮捕一人

(SeaPRwire) -   (洛杉磯) — 執法官員告訴美聯社,當局已逮捕至少一人,與馬修·派瑞的死亡有關。 這位官員未被授權討論案情細節,並要求匿名與美聯社交談。當局已安排於周四上午在洛杉磯舉行新聞發布會,宣布此案的相關細節。 洛杉磯警方在 5 月表示,他們正在與美國緝毒署和美國郵政檢查局合作調查,探究為何這位 54 歲的演員體內有如此高濃度的麻醉藥。 一位助理於 10 月 28 日發現派瑞面朝下躺在熱水浴缸中,被立即呼叫的救護人員宣布他死亡。 他於 12 月發布的驗屍報告發現,他血液中的氯胺酮含量處於手術中使用於全身麻醉的範圍內。 這種幾十年來使用的藥物在近年來作為治療抑鬱症、焦慮症和疼痛的藥物,其使用量大幅增加。派瑞的親近人士告訴驗屍官調查人員,他正在接受氯胺酮輸液療法。 但法醫表示,派瑞在 1 個半星期前的最後一次治療無法解釋他血液中的氯胺酮含量。這種藥物通常在幾個小時內就會代謝掉。法醫報告指出,至少有兩位醫生在治療派瑞,一位精神科醫生和一位麻醉師,擔任他的主要照顧醫師。在他的家中沒有發現任何違禁藥物或相關物品。 報告指出,氯胺酮被列為主要死因,死亡原因被判定為意外事故,並無可疑跡象。驗屍官表示,溺水和其他醫療問題是造成死亡的因素。 派瑞多年來一直在與毒癮作鬥,這可以追溯到他在《六人行》中的時光,在那裡他成為他那一代最具人氣的電視明星之一,飾演錢德勒·賓,與珍妮佛·安妮斯頓、柯特妮·考克斯、麗莎·庫卓、麥特·雷布蘭和大衛·史威默共同出演,在 NBC 的熱門情景喜劇《六人行》中出演了 10 個賽季,從 1994 年到 2004 年。 ___ Balsamo 從紐約報導。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

The Group's revenue from operation in Japan significantly increased by 7,038.01% compared with last year, representing approximately 9.79% of the Group's total revenue, while revenue from operation in the United States increased by 15.54% from last year, representing approximately 23.70% of the Group's total revenue.In the first half of 2024, the rise of generative artificial intelligence (AI) technology has provided significant growth impetus for demand on chips and memory. However, the uncertainties of the global economic environment, along with the slowdown in the growth of the industrial and automotive sectors, leading to a slower-than-expected pace of recovery for the entire semiconductor industry. According to the data recently released by the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA), the monthly sales of the global semiconductor industry have achieved year-on-year growth since 2024. In May, sales reached USD49.1 billion, with an annual growth rate of 19.3% and a monthly growth rate of 4.1%. Such annual growth rate was the highest since April 2022, showcasing the vigorous development trend of generative AI applications, which brought a strong growth momentum to the semiconductor industry.Mr. Yang Ming-Hsiang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer concluded: “With the rapid development of AI technology, the market is entering a new era fully empowered by AI. This transformation not only deeply reconstructs industry ecosystems but also opens unprecedented golden opportunities for the semiconductor industry. The robust demand for AI and high-performance computing data centers is driving chip manufacturers to establish closer collaborations with memory, packaging and testing companies, working together to build a strong ecosystem, thus enhancing the overall competitiveness of the entire industry chain. However, the complex geopolitical landscape continues to have profound effects on the global semiconductor industry, especially in AI, which is a core area of Sino-US competition. The Group will adopt a cautious strategy, flexibly adapting to market changes and seizing development opportunities. At the same time, the Group will also strive to achieve breakthroughs in key technologies to solidify our market position in intense competition, aiming to create long-term and sustainable value returns for the shareholders.”About Genes Tech Group Holdings Co Ltd (Stock Code: 8257.HK)Genes Tech Group Holdings Co.

亞洲公司突破Ac-225製備關鍵技術

磐美迪國際團隊共同努力,完成Ac-225量產核心技術工藝驗證 倫敦- 2024年8月15日 - (SeaPRwire) - 2024年8月,磐美迪控股(深圳)有限公司在國際團隊共同的努力和權威專家的見證下,於英國倫敦發佈突破新型醫用同位素Ac-225關鍵性生產技術的消息,該技術同時得到了英國知名研究型大學的嚴格驗證,為磐美迪在Ac-225的規模商業化量產方面又邁進了具有里程碑意義的一步。 磐美迪作為國際領先的醫用同位素Ac-225 及Ge-68的研發、生產及銷售企業,首階段致力於解決我國醫用同位素長期依賴進口所面臨的技術和產能瓶頸等“卡脖子”問題,實現Ac-225 及Ge-68 全流程國產化。 公司團隊匯集了多國核醫藥領域的頂尖技術人才,分別由英國皇家工程院和英國皇家科學院的雙院士、英國政府的核燃料專家、加拿大核實驗室的前首席科學家,以及清華大學、英國帝國理工大學、香港理工大學、深圳大學、西南醫科大學等權威專家和教授組成,專注於放射性同位素和核醫藥的研究與臨床應用。 Ac-225被認為是最具臨床應用前景的治療用醫用同位素之一,目前全球已有數十項Ac-225藥物管線進入臨床研究階段,覆蓋前列腺癌、神經內分泌腫瘤、非小細胞肺癌、乳腺癌以及多種實體瘤等適應症的多數癌種。 Ac-225在臨床研究和治療應用中因其優異的治療效果,不僅能提高患者的生存率,提高治療效果,減少治療副作用,而且有效降低醫療成本,已經成為全球各大藥企一致看好並爭相佈局的最優秀和最有前景的醫用同位素之一。而全球Ac-225的生產關鍵技術僅由國外極少數的幾個先進團隊掌握,生產工藝需要經過一系列複雜的核反應和分離過程,因此供應極其有限,產能資源長期嚴重稀缺。而隨著國內外相關臨床研究與治療需求的不斷增加,這種供需失衡進一步加劇了Ac-225的緊缺性。磐美迪彌補Ac-225的巨大供應缺口,倍受全球矚目,將有效地支持新癌症治療方法的進一步探索。該雙重價值,進一步體現了磐美迪作為全球健康事業的重要參與者之一,將致力以技術創新、國際合作推動全球健康為宗旨,堅定為實現人類命運共同體而努力的目標。 磐美迪聯合創始人、英國董事CEO、Andrew Carlick院士表示:“磐美迪所採用迴旋加速器製備的Ac-225 技術十分成熟,已通過機構驗證,具有純度高、產量大、輻射低、原料損耗低等優勢。是我們多年來智慧和資源的結晶,在癌症治療方面發揮顯著作用,在國際化團隊共同的努力下,將繼續推動核醫藥技術的發展。” 磐美迪聯合創始人、中國董事CEO、鄧立鳴先生表示:“磐美迪將繼續致力於技術和工藝的創新發展,計畫未來進一步拓展如Ac-225和Ge-68等醫用同位素的應用領域,為放射性藥物的開發提供從原料到成品,從研究到放大以及商業化級別生產的全流程解決方案,構建從同位素生產、核心裝備研發、核藥RXO、新一代診斷設備到AI+TAT的核醫藥全流程技術體系平臺。在加強放射性藥物研發力量的同時,推進世界先進技術臨床轉化與應用,為科學研究和醫療健康貢獻磐美迪力量。”   磐美迪控股(深圳)有限公司 公司聯絡人:Claire Zhao 公司聯繫方式:pchl@panmedisoholdings.com 公司官網:http://panmedisoholdings.com/

納蘇郡頒布口罩禁令,疫情後首例

(SeaPRwire) -   紐約州拿騷郡週三實施了面罩禁令,這是美國在 COVID-19 大流行後首個此類禁令。 新禁令規定,任何人在公共場合戴口罩或面罩以隱藏身份均屬違法行為,但出於健康或宗教原因除外。違反新法律屬輕罪,最高可判處一年監禁和 1,000 美元的罰款。 「口罩透明法案」本月初獲得長島共和黨控制的拿騷郡議會通過,並由拿騷郡行政長官布魯斯·布萊克曼簽署成為法律。議會中的 12 位共和黨議員都投票支持該禁令,而 7 位民主黨議員則棄權。議員們將抗議活動作為實施新措施的理由。 該禁令是在紐約州州長凱西·霍楚表示她正在考慮對使用紐約市地鐵系統的乘客實施戴口罩的禁令後兩個月頒布的。霍楚在 6 月份的新聞發佈會上表示,她在「一群戴著口罩的人接管了地鐵車廂,嚇壞了乘客,並高喊關於希特勒和消滅猶太人的口號」後,正在研究戴口罩的禁令。 霍楚在新聞發佈會上表示:「我們絕不容忍個人利用口罩逃避對犯罪或威脅行為的責任。」 這項新法律已經引發了反對。紐約民權聯盟 (NYCLU) 在新聞稿中猛烈抨擊了拿騷郡的禁令,認為該法律顯示出「將文化戰爭置於保護 [布萊克曼] 本地居民的權利和福祉之上」。 「官員應該支持紐約人表達觀點的權利,而不是助長大規模的網路霸凌和威脅逮捕。」NYCLU 拿騷郡區域主任蘇珊·戈特赫勒表示。「口罩也能保護人們的健康,尤其是在這種疾病流行的時期,並且使有較高風險的人能夠參與公共生活。」 紐約州參議員伊文·朱上週發文,認為這項法案「可能會導致反亞裔仇恨和歧視」,因為戴口罩是「許多亞洲文化中的普遍做法」。 該法律豁免因健康、安全和宗教目的或「和平慶祝」而戴口罩的人。 雖然 COVID-19 大流行導致對保護措施的需求,但霍楚並不是唯一一位呼籲可能實施戴口罩禁令或對戴口罩的抗議者處以更重懲罰的領導人。 6 月,北卡羅來納州通過了一項戴口罩限制法案,該法案允許人們在公共場合戴醫用或外科級別的口罩以防止傳染性疾病的傳播,但執法人員和物業所有人可以要求人們摘下口罩以驗證身份。該措施還加重了戴口罩時犯罪的懲罰。 美國有悠久的戴口罩禁令歷史,特別是在 1940 年代和 1950 年代,當時三K黨成員戴著面罩以隱藏身份。戴口罩禁令過去曾被用於阻止抗議者,但隨著今年以巴衝突的抗議活動加劇,執法部門和地方政府重新啓用了這些法律,以阻止抗議者戴口罩。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

AsiaMedic continues growth streak with 23% increase in revenue for First Half ended 30 June 2024

SINGAPORE, Aug 14, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - SGX Catalist-listed AsiaMedic Limited (the “Company” and together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”) announced its financial results for the financial period ended 30 June 2024 (“1H2024”).The Group’s 1H2024 revenue increased by S$2.4 million or 23% from S$10.7 million for 1H2023 to S$13.2 million due to the increase in revenue from the imaging and aesthetic businesses. The increase follows three consecutive years of revenue growth as the Group continues to pursue further capacity expansion to serve more patients.The increase in revenue from the diagnostic imaging business was primarily due to the addition of a third MRI scanner in the last quarter of 2023 while the increase in revenue from the aesthetics business was due to the engagement of a senior aesthetic doctor and the acquisition of the medical aesthetics business of LE Private Clinic in August 2023.The set-up of the new diagnostic imaging centre in Novena as well as expanded operations at Shaw Centre have necessitated the hiring of additional staff and doctors amidst intense competition for talent in the industry. The additional manpower was also supported by the purchase of new equipment incorporating the latest technology.The Group’s consumables expenses increased by 44% to S$1.0 million, personnel expenses increased by 30% to S$7.3 million, and laboratory and consultancy fees increased by 55% to S$2.2 million. In addition, depreciation of right-of-use assets increased by 36% to S$0.7 million for 1H2024 due to the purchase of the new MRI scanner in the last quarter of 2023 and the new CT scanner in 1H2024, as well as the lease of new clinic space at Orchard Building in 1H2023.As a result, the Group recorded a borderline loss of S$0.1 million for 1H2024 as compared to a profit of S$0.6 million for 1H2023. On the balance sheet, the Net Asset Value per share (cents) fell slightly by 0.04 cent from 1.18 cents per share to 1.14 cents per share.Investing for Future GrowthMr Arifin Kwek, Chief Executive Officer of AsiaMedic Limited, said, “We are encouraged by the continued revenue growth which reflects our ongoing pursuit of further capacity expansion to serve more patients. The Group’s new diagnostic imaging centre set-up in partnership with Sunway Berhad remains on track to commence operations by November 2024 and will nearly double the Group’s diagnostic imaging capacity.”“While our initial essential investments in new talent and technology may lead to margin compression in the short term, the expanded capacity and increase in productivity will also generate economies of scale and operational efficiencies which will play a significant role in the Group’s focus on attaining sustainable higher margins in the longer term,” he added.In August 2024, the Group implemented a new artificial intelligence virtual assistant to automate the scheduling of patient appointments. The system will free clinic staff from mundane tasks, allowing them to dedicate more time for high value in-person patient care.The Group’s focus on talent acquisition and investing in technology will pave the way for long-term sustainable growth and the creation of shareholder value.This press release should be read in conjunction with the financial statements announcement for 1H2024 uploaded on SGXNet.For media and analysts’ queries, please contact:Waterbrooks ConsultantsWayne KooT: (65) 9338 8166E: wayne.koo@waterbrooks.com.sgAbout AsiaMedic LimitedAsiaMedic Limited together with its subsidiaries (“AsiaMedic” or the “Group”) is a leading healthcare provider in Singapore which provides holistic solutions through integrated application of the latest medical technologies to prevent and detect early illnesses to achieve positive experiences and clinical outcomes for patients.The Group is committed to helping clients through practical and personalised solutions delivered with the highest professional standards of service and expertise in a timely, safe and consistent manner.

(SeaPRwire) -   即使沒有任何額外的複雜因素, 也夠難了。所以想像一下試圖從 監獄中做父母。 一部新的 Netflix 紀錄片電影以敏感的方式探討了這個挑戰,它描繪了 2019 年在華盛頓特區的一家監獄中舉行的一場父女晚餐舞會,讓一些被囚禁者可以和他們年幼的女兒共度一段美好的時光。這部電影追蹤了四個女孩——奧布裡、桑塔納、拉齊亞和賈安娜——八年,讓觀眾不僅可以深入了解她們如何為舞會做準備,以及在監獄中與她們的父親互動,還可以了解她們在之後的幾年中如何與她們的父親保持聯繫。 導演娜塔莉·雷與安吉拉·帕頓共同執導了這部電影,安吉拉·帕頓發起了這場晚餐舞會,並經營著「Camp Diva Leadership Academy」和非營利組織「Girls For A Change」,這兩個項目為黑人女孩準備成年。帕頓 2012 年在「TEDxWomen」關於晚餐舞會起源的演講視頻在「TED Talk」網站上獲得了約一百萬次觀看,並促成了《Daughters》的製作。 「父親被關起來並不意味著他應該被排除在女兒的生活之外,」帕頓在這個病毒式傳播的演講中說道。  導演們想提高人們對 家庭如何難以與 保持聯繫的認識。許多 不被允許與家人進行面對面探視,只能通過視頻聊天與他們交談。他們還在一份聲明中表示,他們尋求 以故事為中心的那些黑人男性,這些男性在媒體或生活中並非總是得到這樣的待遇。他們實現這一點的一種關鍵方式是避免討論讓這些父親入獄的罪行,讓觀眾可以不受定罪的影響,了解他們。 《Daughters》展示了分離造成的壓力。電影中的其中一個女孩,15 歲的拉齊亞,抱怨每次只能與她父親阿隆佐通話 15 分鐘,阿隆佐正在服刑 30 年。這些限制造成的距離讓拉齊亞感到痛苦。她的母親謝里塔在談到拉齊亞兩次談論結束自己生命時,眼淚汪汪;有一次,她在家的屋頂上發現了她的女兒,準備跳下去,並通過告訴她自殺不會幫助她的爸爸,他已經受夠了苦頭,來勸說她。 10 歲的桑塔納非常坦率地說了她父親馬克的入獄是如何影響她的。她在車裡排練著她想在她看到他在舞會上時告訴他的話。「我已經不再流淚了,因為他想繼續做他不應該做的事情——這不行。這影響到 我。」她補充說,她從來不想有自己的孩子。「你給我一百萬美元,我還是不會做媽媽。」  一些被特寫的母親對這場舞會持懷疑態度。在電影中,賈安娜的母親烏妮塔質疑她女兒入獄的父親是否有資格獲得建立聯繫的機會。她援引了她與他的對話,「為什麼你入獄了還想和她建立聯繫,而你出來這麼長時間,你甚至都不想理她?」 為了參加這場舞會,參與的囚犯必須完成 由教育家查德·莫里斯進行的 指導。在 10 週的時間裡,莫里斯幫助他們為他所稱的 做好準備,從看到他們的女兒(在某些情況下,是第一次看到她們)的興奮,到活動結束後回到現實的瞬間。帕頓參加了其中一次課程,談論了女孩們見她們父親的興奮之情。當她向他們解釋這場活動的意義時,「這是關於治愈我們的家庭。這是關於加強我們的家庭,因為我們知道,當我們的家庭完整時,我們的社區就會繁榮。」 這些父親們為這場盛大的活動準備了理髮、西裝、襯衫、領帶和鞋子。在整個舞廳裡,都擺著手工製作的桌子和拍照區,以便父親和女兒可以拍下照片,並留下紀念彼此的紀念品。但這次聚會本身卻是苦樂參半。當父親和女兒們隨著 的歌曲跳舞時,一些人一邊哭泣一邊隨著歌詞「我永遠、永遠…永遠不會讓你走」一起唱歌。5 歲的奧布裡坐在桌子旁,告訴她爸爸早點回家,他告訴她,她成為青少年時,他就會出獄。 研究表明,再犯率很高。一項分析 表明,82% 的 釋放者在獲釋後的頭 10 年中至少被逮捕一次。在父親身份治療課程中,在舞會後進行的簡報表明,像這樣的舞蹈項目可以幫助改變這種情況。正如電影中的一名囚犯所說,「那一天,我真的感覺自己再也回不去監獄了…因為那天我感受到了力量。」本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

什麼是巨型地震警報?日本發佈的通知引發擔憂

(SeaPRwire) -   東京 - 日本是世界上地震最頻繁的國家之一,上週在九州南部主要島嶼東南海岸發生強烈地震後,日本發布了史上首次「大地震警報」。 這起芮氏規模 7.1 的地震未造成任何人員死亡或嚴重損害,但警報引發了廣泛的混淆和揮之不去的擔憂 - 在一個習慣定期地震的國家 - 下一個大地震何時會來臨。 美聯社解釋了警報的含義、人們被告知要採取的行動,以及如果日本發生大地震可能發生的事情。 什麼是大地震警報? 日本氣象廳在得出結論,8 月 8 日在南海海槽西緣發生的芮氏規模 7.1 地震增加了發生另一起大地震的可能性後,發布了警報。 日本氣象廳表示,未來 30 年內南海海槽發生芮氏規模 8 或 9 地震的機率為 70% 到 80%,而最近這起地震發生後,這種機率現在「高於正常」。 但東京大學地震學家平田直樹表示,這並不是預測大地震會在任何特定時間或地點發生。平田直樹是日本氣象廳專家小組的負責人。他敦促人們保持謹慎和做好準備。 什麼是南海海槽? 南海海槽是一個海底海溝,從九州東南海岸水域附近的日向灘一直延伸到日本中部的駿河灣。它沿著太平洋海岸延伸約 800 公里(500 英里)。 日本氣象廳表示,菲律賓海板塊在那裡緩慢地向下拉動歐亞板塊,並導致其偶爾反彈,這種作用可能會導致大地震和海嘯。 日本氣象廳表示,1946 年在四國附近發生的最後一次南海海槽地震,初步記錄的規模為 8.0,造成 1,300 多人死亡。 大地震的破壞力有多大? 2013 年,一個政府防災團隊表示,芮氏規模 9.1 的南海海槽地震可能在幾分鐘內引發超過 10 米(33 英尺)的海嘯,造成多達 323,000 人死亡,摧毀超過 200 萬棟建築物,並對日本太平洋沿岸的大片地區造成超過 220 兆日元(1.5 兆美元)的經濟損失。 政府正在做些什麼來準備? 由於「大地震警報」,日本首相岸田文雄取消了原定於 8 月 9 日至 12 日的訪問中亞行程,並宣布他將領導政府應對,確保預防措施和與公眾的溝通。 消防廳和災害管理局指示 707 個被認為面臨南海海槽地震風險的城市,檢視其應對措施和疏散計畫。 專家和官員敦促人們保持冷靜並繼續他們日常的社會和經濟活動,同時也確保緊急食物和水,並與家人討論疏散計畫。 日本氣象廳專家在週一的安撫聲明中表示,他們迄今尚未發現任何異常的地震或地質活動表明即將發生大地震。 人們的反應如何? 「大地震警報」充滿了科學術語,讓全國各地的人們感到擔憂和困惑。一些城鎮關閉了海灘並取消了年度活動,這給日本盂蘭盆節假期(全國各地舉辦節慶和煙火表演的時節)的旅行者帶來了挑戰。 許多人推遲了預定的旅行,並搶購大米、乾麵條、罐頭食品、瓶裝水、便攜式馬桶和其他緊急用品,導致日本西部和東京的許多超市貨架空空如也,儘管東京不在危險地區之外。 Summit 超市連鎖店表示,微波爐米飯供應短缺,商店限制每位顧客購買一包。 久藤佳子和她丈夫慎也表示,他們很難理解警報的確切含義、應該有多擔憂以及應該做些什麼。 「我們試著不要過度擔心。過度擔憂並不好。」久藤佳子說。 「我們不知道如何做好準備,同時像專家告訴我們的那樣正常生活。」60 歲的照護人員久藤慎也說。 在東京的一家主要火車站附近散步的押島洋子說:「這很可怕……他們說未來 30 年內有(70% 到 80%)的機率,但這可能在明天發生。」她最近買了一台便攜式馬桶。她說水對她的糖尿病丈夫來說是必不可少的,他需要在每頓飯後服用藥物。 「我打算趁這個機會列一張清單,確保我們手邊有所有東西。」押島說。她本週沒有改變她的度假計畫,但她女兒取消了前往富士山的旅行。 在四國島上有許多溫泉、酒店和度假村的松山市,酒店和度假村審查了他們的疏散程序和緊急設備,並啟動了一個供緊急情況使用的無線電通訊系統。道後溫泉旅館協會理事長落合秀樹表示,自發布警報以來,他們已經接到了數百個取消預訂。 為該地區提供服務的鐵路公司表示,他們的火車作為預防措施,以略微降低的速度運行。 高知縣黑潮沿海城鎮的危機管理工作組最初在全鎮設置了 30 個避難所,政府風險分析預測該地區可能會發生 34 米(111 英尺)高的海嘯。但自日本氣象廳週一聲明表示沒有跡象表明即將發生大地震後,只有兩個避難所仍在開放。 東大阪市在城鎮網站上敦促居民,如果發生大地震,不要進行「不必要且非緊急」的旅行。 和歌山縣著名的海濱小鎮白濱表示,其四個戶外溫泉、公園和其他設施將關閉一週。週六的年度煙火節也取消了。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti’s First Drilling Program

The first ever copper-gold focused drilling program at the northern portion of the Nyngan Project will shortly commence with earn-in partner AngloGold Ashanti Australia (AngloGold Ashanti).New district-scale potential with up to eight large intrusive complex targets to be drill-tested for the first time in this initial first phase program.Approximately 6 to 8 drill holes for an estimated 4000-5000 metres budgeted before the summer break. Kincora is managing the program and will receive a 10% management fee. The program is the first by Kincora in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti, which has the right to spend up to A$50 million to earn an 80% interest in the Nyngan and Nevertire Projects.Fleet Space Technologies Pty Ltd's (Fleet Space) ongoing Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) and gravity geophysical surveys at the Nyngan Project are progressing well and are expected to complement upcoming drilling.Melbourne, Australia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - August 14, 2024) - Kincora Copper Limited (TSXV: KCC) (ASX: KCC), (Kincora or the Company) is pleased to outline plans for the next chapter of copper-gold focused drilling in the Macquarie Arc, Central West New South Wales (NSW) with a first program in partnership with and funded by AngloGold Ashanti to shortly commence at the Nyngan Project.Sam Spring, President and CEO of Kincora, commented: "We are very excited by the potential of the Northern Junee-Narromine belt where we are seeking not to just confirm a new significant porphyry Cu-Au deposit but a new district and series of discoveries. The strategic appeal and value of a new porphyry district has been clearly illustrated in the Vicuña district with corporate activities by BHP and Lundin Mining this month supporting over C$8 billion of value being recognised for a cluster of four new major discoveries. Recent planning and targeting activities with our partner AngloGold Ashanti has significantly expanded the number of targets, the drilling activities needed and planned to test a series of major and previously undrilled interpreted magmatic complex targets at the Nyngan Project. Initially we are aiming to test up to eight new major intrusive system complex targets before year end in this first phase program which focuses on the very compelling northern Nyngan "Ace of Spades" region.Recent neighbouring explorer drilling is also supporting the potential of a series of Macquarie Arc intrusive complexes to the immediate east of the "Ace of Spades" target area along a potentially important common transverse structure providing further encouragement to the potential of a new porphyry district scale opportunity."BackgroundThe undercover extensions of the renowned Macquarie Arc porphyry copper-gold geology are globally significant exploration opportunities offering new district(s) scale discovery potential. The region has attracted four earn-in and joint venture agreements in the last 12 months supporting potentially over $200 million in exploration and development expenditure.The most recent notable example of a new emerging globally significant porphyry district is the Vicuña district in the central Andes in Argentina on the border of Chile, which is largely consolidated by Lundin group entities and BHP and situated at over 4000m altitude 1.Within this district NGEX Resources Inc in 2009 held three early-stage exploration projects and, at the time, had a market capitalisation of approximately C$40 million. These same projects are all still at a pre-development phase but have yielded four large-scale discoveries currently valued at over C$8 billion 2.In comparison, the central west of NSW benefits from multiple world-class mines, existing infrastructure, high-quality publicly available exploration data and an existing mineral endowment of over 160 million gold equivalent ounces 3. Regional geophysics strongly indicates that Kincora's Nyngan license hosts the largest volcano-intrusive complex of the Macquarie Arc, which is almost untested, offering new district scale potential.Kincora, as the early entrant, has secured a district scale position in the interpreted shallow-to-moderate covered core sections of the Northern Junee-Narromine Belt (NJNB) by pegging Nyngan and Nevertire which are now in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti 4.The imminent first-ever drilling program at the northern portion of the Nyngan Project will focus on the "Ace of Spades" region and test a wide range of untested, large intrusive-related Cu-Au targets. The program seeks to confirm the potential for a series of new Macquarie Arc intrusive complexes and provide vectors for follow up drilling - see Figure 1.Subject to permitting, access and weather conditions, the drilling program is anticipated to commence from mid September and will continue until the summer break, comprising up to eight holes for an estimated 4000-5000 metres.Recent planning and targeting activities with our partner AngloGold Ashanti have significantly expanded the number of targets, the drilling necessary to test a series of major and previously-undrilled interpreted magmatic complex targets at the Nyngan Project. This first program will test the potential for up to eight separate large intrusive complex targets.The program will comprise cost-effective mud-rotary drilling through the post mineral cover sequence with diamond core drilling upon refusal and testing of the targeted basement.Kincora is managing the exploration program and will receive a 10% management fee as the program is funded by AngloGold Ashanti via the up to $50 million earn-in and joint venture agreement for the Nyngan and Nevertire Projects.These drill targets include an existing high priority large intrusive complex target, which is currently the focus of Fleet Space's ongoing Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) and gravity geophysical surveys within the northern portion of the Nyngan Project 5.  Figure 1: District-scale series of major and untested magmatic complex targets with in the northern Nyngan "Ace of Spades" region that potentially represent the largest volcano-intrusive complex of the Macquarie Arc.  Kincora is managing the exploration program and will receive a 10% management feeTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/219846_kincora.jpgThe geophysical surveys are seeking to map and refine the interpretation of the paleo-surface and basement rocks and refine modeling of the targeted alteration, intrusions and structures.Recent neighbouring exploration drilling by Inflection Resources ("Inflection") is further supporting the potential of a series of Macquarie Arc intrusives to the immediate east of the "Ace of Spades" target area at Nyngan. Inflection has announced encouraging results at the Canonba target situated on the license boundary to the Nyngan Project, and located approximately 5km from its Duck Creek target, which is a Phase 2 designated project with its earn-in and joint venture partner AngloGold Ashanti 6. The Canonba, Duck Creek and Ace of Spades target areas potentially host important common transverse structures providing further encouragement about the potential of a new district-scale porphyry opportunity.About the Nyngan ProjectThe Nyngan license (Exploration Licence 8929) was the first ground Kincora secured in NSW. It is a large 762km2 direct application tenement granted by the NSW State Government covering a significant portion of the interpreted under cover section of the northern Junee-Narromine Belt 7. The Junee-Narromine Belt is one of the two largest belts of the Macquarie Arc, Australia's foremost porphyry belt, which hosts a mineral endowment of over 160 million gold equivalent ounces.The license hosts limited, but encouraging, prior explorer drilling that has been inadequately followed up, with regional geophysics supporting a new potential district-scale setting hosting interpreted, large-scale, intrusive complex targets.In May 2024, Kincora signed a definitive multiple-phase Earn-in and Joint Venture Agreement (Agreement) over the Nyngan and Nevertire licences with a wholly owned subsidiary of AngloGold Ashanti plc (NYSE: AU) (JSE: ANG), the world's fourth largest gold miner by production, which has a successful track record for Greenfields discovery success.AngloGold Ashanti has the right to spend up to A$50 million to earn an 80% interest through:A$25 million of exploration expenditure to earn a 70% joint venture interest (Phase I) including a minimum A$2 million expenditure obligation, with Kincora the initial operator for a 10% management fee.
