According to research from IHS Markit (Nasdaq: $INFO) Artificial Intelligence is the number 2 top trend for next year.

“From artificial intelligence to the Internet of Things (IoT), far-reaching innovations are unfolding in virtually every technology sector around the globe, continuing to change the way consumers, businesses and machines interact while also spurring the next revolution in tech market growth, according to a new white paper from IHS Markit (Nasdaq: INFO), a world leader in critical information, analytics and solutions for the major industries and markets that drive economies worldwide.

Trend #2 – Artificial Intelligence (AI) Gets Serious
• Already, personified AI assistants from a handful of companies (Amazon’s Alexa, Apple’s Siri) have access to billions of users via smartphones and other devices.
• However, even bigger, more profound changes are on their way as levels of human control are ceded directly to AI, such as in autonomous cars or robots. “

TSX Mining News: Silver Spruce (TSXV: $SSE.V) Reports 8 g/t Gold and 77 g/t Silver at Encino De Oro

TSX Mining News: Silver Spruce (TSXV: $SSE.V) Reports 8 g/t Gold and 77 g/t Silver at Encino De Oro

Receives Significant Geochemical Results from Encino De Oro Gold & Silver Project

December 20, 2016 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Silver Spruce Resources Inc. (TSXV: SSE.V) announced the latest sampling results from its recently acquired Encino De Oro project near Chinipas, Chihuahua, Mexico. The field crew was led by Leonard J. Karr, P.Geo, and a third party qualified person for Silver Spruce.

To date, a total of 42 chip channel and grab samples have been taken from outcrop, sub crop and float over an area of three square kilometres at the Encino De Oro project.
Assays of these samples range as high as 8 grams per tonne gold (Au) and 77 g/t silver (Ag), with anomalous values of copper (Cu), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), arsenic (As) and antimony (Sb).


Encino De Oro Property
The Encino De Oro project contains vein, stock work and disseminated hosted epithermal gold-silver targets within the upper and lower volcanic sequences. An initial property examination in October, 2016, confirmed that an outcrop of strongly silicified rhyolite tuff contains gold grades of eight g/t and greater than five g/t in two samples covering over three metres in width. The company's field reconnaissance team, led by Mr. Karr, examined this outcrop in November, 2016.

This reconnaissance showed mineralization and argillic alteration to be widespread, covering about three square kilometres and being open on all sides. About 90 per cent of the exposed section consists of rhyolitic tuffs that are weakly to moderately argillized and locally contain quartz stockwork. Rarely weakly to moderately silicified zones were encountered.
Additionally, local anomalies in Ag, As, Cu, Pb, Zn and Sb together are suggestive of a large system that warrants additional work.

Qualified person
Mr. Karr, professional geologist and a qualified person, under Toronto Stock Exchange guidelines, is the author of the company's NI 43-101 report on the Pino de Plata project, dated July 7, 2015, and is responsible for the technical content of this press release.

Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.

#Cannabis Stock News: Alliance Growers (CSE: $ACG) Announces Extension with BRIM For MJ Botany Centres

#Cannabis Stock News: Alliance Growers (CSE: $ACG) Announces Extension with BRIM For MJ Botany Centres

December 16, 2016 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Alliance Growers (CSE: ACG)and Botanical Research In Motion International Inc. (BRIM) have agreed to extend the period of time required to finalize the definitive licence agreement.

Alliance is finalizing a Definitive License Agreement with B.R.I.M. for a Canada Exclusive License to jointly develop and operate cannabis Botany Centres. The initial project is planned as a staged development of a 40,000 square foot facility being located near Vancouver, B.C., to be the first of its kind in Western Canada to house a DNA Botany lab, extraction facility and Tissue Culture Plantlet Production facility to service the cannabis market and agriculture market in general. The planned facility will grow cannabis plantlets using proprietary tissue culture propagation, specifically the “Chibafreen Invitro Plant Production System”, which assures consistent composition and purity.

The development of the cannabis botany centre, together with partnerships and investments, is designed to provide Alliance Growers with the following:

·        Produce revenue from the sale of cannabis and other plantlets under contract;
·        Generate revenue from the processing and resale of cannabidiol (CBD) oil in Canada, the United States and offshore;
·        Providing cold-storage facilities utilizing the one-of-a-kind cryo-tissue cold-storage technology for tissue culture preservation and regeneration as needed on a long-term basis;
·        Provide extraction services as retail services for cultivators and create custom profiles for extraction for botanicals oils for retail market.

First strategic investment in a private medical cannabis company
Through a serious of strategic partnerships and investments under negotiation with licensed producers at various stages in the licence process, Alliance Growers is focused on securing long-term plantlet sale contracts for the cannabis botany centre and off-take agreements at wholesale costs for flowers to be acquired by Alliance Growers for CBD oil extraction.
Alliance Growers has negotiated terms on a 10-per-cent non-dilutive interest in a private company in Ontario that has assembled a top-tier growing team with management that has the expertise to expedite the licensed producer application process.

Joint venture with Israeli medical cannabis company
Further to the company's commitment to become a leading supplier of pharmaceutical-grade CBD oil on a global basis, Alliance Growers continues discussions setting out terms with an Israeli medical cannabis company.

Included in the discussions is the joint development of 50 hectares of land for the growth of high-quality cannabis plants, as legally permitted in an offshore, low-operating-cost jurisdiction. This would facilitate the importation of the CBD oil into various states in the United States, into Canada when legalized and into other countries as permitted.

This joint venture and other similar partnerships are what will make Alliance Growers stand out from other Canadian cannabis companies that are directly affected by Health Canada rules and regulations. Alliance Growers plans to produce and sell more CBD oil from outside Canada.

The Hemp Business Journal reports that the CBD market in the United States is growing at a rate of 30 per cent per year and forecasts that sales of CBD oils from marijuana-based sources are expected to reach $1.65-billion, or 79 per cent of the total CBD market of $2.1-billion, by 2020.

As previously announced, Alliance Growers is undertaking a private placement of up to 10 million units at a price of 20 cents per unit, for gross proceeds of up to $2-million. Each unit comprises one common share and one share purchase warrant. Each share purchase warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one additional common share in the capital of the company at a price of 30 cents per share, for a period of two years from the date the units are issued. A portion of the proceeds may be used for finalization of the company's current projected arrangements.

About Alliance Growers
Alliance Growers is a diversified cannabis company driven by the company's four-pillar organization plan: MMPR (marihuana for medical purposes regulations) cannabis production facilities, distribution network, consumer products, and research and development.

NEXUS GOLD (TSX.V: NXS) Starts Drilling Gold Project Niangouela

NEXUS GOLD (TSX.V: NXS) Starts Drilling Gold Project Niangouela

NEXUS GOLD (TSX.V: NXS) RAB DRILLING UNDERWAY AT NIANGOUELA GOLD CONCESSION, BURKINA FASO, WEST AFRICA

December 14, 2016 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Nexus Gold Corp.'s (TSX.V: NXS.V) RAB (rotary air blast) drilling at its Niangouela gold concession in Burkina Faso, West Africa, is now under way.

Drilling began on Monday, December 12, with 294m (eleven holes) of the proposed 800m program so far completed. The current RAB program is designed to investigate the potential of parallel or offset shears and recently observed quartz veins. Historic results showed areas of geochemical anomalies occurring proximal to the quartz veining. The program will consist of grid drilling on lines spaced at 200 meters with drill sites every 50 meters along the lines.

The 178 square kilometre concession is located on the Boromo Greenstone Belt, same as the Company's Bouboulou Gold Concession and is proximal to the Kalsaka deposit and the Sabce shear. It is road accessible and has one major orpaillage (artisanal workings).

To date 556 pits and eleven trenches have been excavated, and rock and soil samples have been taken. A total of 1,137 samples have been collected. Previous programs have identified a zone which runs ENE and WSW occurring in the south central part of the concession. This zone has returned gold in soil samples up to 34 g/t Au, rock samples have returned values up to 18 g/t Au, and trenching has returned values of 4.85 g/t Au over 10 meters.


About Burkina Faso
Burkina Faso is a landlocked nation, located in West Africa. It covers an area of roughly 274,000 square kilometres and has an estimated population of more than 16 million people. The country has a stable political setting with a pro-mining and foreign investment stance. Burkina Faso is the fastest growing gold producer in Africa, and was the 4th largest gold producer in Africa in 2012. Eight new mines have been commissioned there over the past six years. The country has excellent geological potential. The Greenstone Belts that host all of the major deposits in Ghana and Cote d'Ivoire continue northward into Burkina Faso. Burkina Faso has undergone less than 15 years of modern mineral exploration, remaining under explored in comparison to neighbouring Ghana and Mali; both of which host world class gold mines in the same belts of Birimian rocks.

About the Company
Nexus Gold Corp. is a Vancouver-based gold exploration and development company operating in some of the world's premier mining districts. The Company is currently concentrating its efforts on two gold projects located in Burkina Faso, West Africa. The Bouboulou gold concession is a 38-sq km advanced exploration target where previous drilling has confirmed multiple zones of gold mineralization, and the Niangouela gold concession, a 178-sq km project featuring numerous historical gold occurrences. For more information on these projects, please visit the company website at www.nexusgoldcorp.com.

Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
