dynaCERT and its Dealer in Negotiations with the World's Largest Transportation Polluters

dynaCERT's Canadian Dealer, Mobile Emissions Testing Inc. ("Mobile Emissions") along with dynaCERT is in negotiations with one of the world's largest transporters of goods which is committed to reducing its Carbon Footprint. As well, Mobile Emissions is assisting the Company with its Ontario Government initiatives and is also focussing on some of Ontario's largest Municipal accounts.

 

Non-Core Electrolyser Research & Development

With 17 plus years of Research and Development, scientific knowledge, and design advancements within hydrogen generation, dynaCERT intends to expand and leverage their expertise and knowledge to form the basis for future decades to advance the Company's goal to adapt its HydraGEN™ Technology to numerous markets, globally. dynaCERT's Hydrogen electrolysers have gone through a series of transformations to meet the market demand. dynaCERT's existing Alkaline Hydrogen electrolysers are best suited for non-pressurized Hydrogen production up to 500 litres per hour and can be stacked for higher Hydrogen demand.

 

Gurjant Singh, dynaCERT's Head of Research and Development stated, "dynaCERT's upcoming products such as the Anion Exchange Membrane and the Cation Exchange Membrane electrolysers will produce pressurized Hydrogen to meet the global demand. Pressurized Hydrogen will significantly cut down the compression cost making it affordable to use in small- and large-scale applications such as off-grid power supply, fuel cells etc. dynaCERT's smart ECU will enable consumers to control Hydrogen production remotely and simplify data management.

 

dynaCERT is committed to achieve and participate in net zero emissions goal by 2050. Exponential growth in Hydrogen production over the past few years by conventional methods have further impacted the environment adversely. In 2019, more than 550 million tons of Carbon Dioxide were released in the atmosphere because of hydrogen production via Methane Reforming Process. At $50 per ton Carbon Credit, there is potential for more than $27 Billion worth of yearly savings. Carbon Credits remain a huge future revenue stream for dynaCERT with our Patent Pending Carbon Capturing Methodology while capturing credits for the Carbon Saved with our Hydrogen Generating electrolysers."

 

Jim Payne, CEO of dynaCERT, stated, "dynaCERT fully supports the Ontario Government initiatives related to the development of its hydrogen strategy. The Hydrogen Strategy Working Group of the Ontario Government is an important step in the process of developing a workable hydrogen strategy. We applaud all the dedicated people involved in this Ontario Government initiative and thank all participants within the government and within the private sector for their commitment to making hydrogen an important part of our collective future."

#REE #Mining News: Defense Metals (TSX-V: $DEFN.V) (OTCQB: $DFMTF) X-Ray Transmission Amenability Study Demonstrates Potential For Sensor Based Upgrading Of Wicheeda Rare Earth Element Feed; @DefenseMetals

#REE #Mining News: Defense Metals (TSX-V: $DEFN.V) (OTCQB: $DFMTF) X-Ray Transmission Amenability Study Demonstrates Potential For Sensor Based Upgrading Of Wicheeda Rare Earth Element Feed; @DefenseMetals

 

Vancouver, British Columbia - March 10, 2021 (Investorideas.com NewswireMiningSectorStocks.com and RenewableEnergyStocks.com) -Mining / Metals / Green Energy Stock News - Defense Metals Corp. ("Defense Metals") (TSX-V:DEFN / OTCQB:DFMTF/ 35D: FSE)) is pleased to announce that it has received the results of an X-Ray Transmission amenability study completed on samples of Wicheeda Rare Earth Element (REE) mineralized drill core by the Saskatchewan Research Council (SRC), Saskatoon, SK.

 

Read this news and see table and image from DEFN in full at https://www.investorideas.com/news/2021/mining/03101DEFN-Sensor-Based-Upgrading-Wicheeda.asp

 

The road accessible Wicheeda REE Property is located close to infrastructure approximately 80 kilometres northeast of Prince George, British Columbia (BC). The Wicheeda project has indicated mineral resources of 4,890,000 tonnes averaging 3.02% LREO (Light Rare Earth Elements) and inferred mineral resources of 12,100,000 tonnes averaging 2.90% LREO[1].

 

Highlights of the XRT amenability study completed by SRC on samples of high-grade REE mineralized Wicheeda diamond drill core are as follows:

 

·        X-ray transmission measurements and QEMSCAN® confirmed that XRT technology can identify Wicheeda REE minerals in drill core samples (Figure 1).

·        Crushing to -15 mm size particles and using a 5% REE mineral lower cut-off in the sorting algorithm, demonstrated the potential of low-cost front end XRT sorting to upgrade 2.3x from approximately 11% REE mineral content to 25% REEmineral content.

·        Upgrading of Wicheeda REE mineralization via XRT sorting has the potential to significantly reduce feed volume forwarded to downstream the hydrometallurgical process.

 

Craig Taylor, CEO of Defense Metals, stated: "Defense Metals is excited to establish the amenability of Wicheeda REE mineralization to the application of low-cost front end upgrading via sensor-based sorting technologies. We know from our very successful flotation pilot plant and bench-scale hydrometallurgical test-work that early volume reduction and upgrading has significant downstream benefits. The quality of concentrate we can deliver to flotation process has direct benefits in terms of process recovery, and reduced costs related to reagent reduction. Based on the success of this amenability test work SRC have recommended proceeding to a series of confirmatory XRT sorting optimization tests."

 

XRT sorting is a technology that exploits the atomic density (atoms/cm3) differences of minerals. The atomic densityof a mineral is closely related to the minerals' density (gram/cm3) and is therefore a viable technology for upgrading the mineralized feed prior to processing. Previous test work indicated that gravity separation prior to flotation was beneficialin concentrating Wicheeda REE minerals due to the large density differences between the REE and gangue minerals.

 

To evaluate amenability to XRT sorting, a combination of high-resolution XRT and QEMSCAN® (Quantitative Evaluation of Materials by Scanning Electron Microscopy) measurements were carried out at the SRC. Thesemeasurements identify if the atomic density differences between the REE and gangue minerals can be exploited for XRT sorting. The greyscale levels associated with the various minerals are identified using QEMSCAN® measurements.

 

Using the X-ray greyscale images and the QEMSCAN® images, additional theoretical information on the grade of the REE minerals for various particle sizes is generated. The particle grade information determined how much gangue andhow much REE mineralization is present in each size fraction. Information is necessary to determine the benefits ofupgrading the mineralized feed at different particle sizes.

 

Size fractions greater than 6 mm can be viably sorted using XRT sorters while size fractions greater than 0.6 mm are more amendable to sorting using dense medium separation (DMS) and spirals. Size fractions less than 0.6 mm are concentrated via hydrometallurgy processes. The average distribution of the REE minerals and the theoretical grade of the XRT sorted mineralized feed for the six core samples, for each size fraction within 20 mm, 10 mm, and 6 mm particles are shown in Table 1.

 

About the Wicheeda REE Property

The 1,708 hectare Wicheeda REE Property, located approximately 80 km northeast of the city of Prince George, British Columbia, is readily accessible by all-weather gravel roads and is nearby to infrastructure, including power transmission lines, the CN railway and major highways.

 

Geologically, the property is situated in the Foreland Belt and within the Rocky Mountain Trench, a major continental geologic feature. The Foreland Belt contains part of a large alkaline igneous province, stretching from the Canadian Cordillera to the southwestern United States, which includes several carbonatite and alkaline intrusive complexes hosting the Aley (niobium), Rock Canyon (REE), and Wicheeda (REE) deposits.

 

Qualified Person

The scientific and technical information contained in this news release as it relates to the Wicheeda REE Property has been reviewed and approved by Kristopher J. Raffle, P.Geo. (BC) Principal and Consultant of APEX Geoscience Ltd. of Edmonton, AB, a director of Defense Metals and a "Qualified Person" as defined in National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. Mr. Raffle verified the data disclosed which includes a review of the analytical and test data underlying the information and opinions contained therein.

 

Methodology and QA/QC

A total of 6 core samples were selected for X-ray transmission measurements. Each sample was imaged using 2-dimensional X-ray transmission measurements to identify greyscale differences in the core samples. The greyscale levelsassociated with the various minerals are identified using QEMSCAN® measurements. The X-ray images are thenmodified using a defined threshold to identify the location and dispersion of the REE minerals and pyrite throughout the core samples. The results of this XRT amenability study are theoretical in nature and may not be representative of actual recoveries obtainable via direct testing using XRT sorting and DMS.

 

Using image analysis techniques on the QEMSCAN® images, the percent removal of low-grade mineralization iscalculated for different theoretical size fractions. The size fractions used in this study were: 20 mm, 10 mm, 6 mm, 3 mm,1.2 mm, and 0.6 mm rectangular particles.

 

Defense Metals is not aware of any drilling, sampling, recovery, or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data referred to herein. The SRC operates in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025:2005 (CAN-P-4E), General Requirements for the Competence of Mineral Testing and Calibration Laboratories. SRC is independent of Defense Metals Corp. and the Qualified Person.

The greyscale levels associated with the various minerals are identified using QEMSCAN® measurements.

 

Using the X-ray greyscale images and the QEMSCAN® images, additional theoretical information on the grade of the REE minerals for various particle sizes is generated. The particle grade information determined how much gangue andhow much REE mineralization is present in each size fraction. Information is necessary to determine the benefits ofupgrading the mineralized feed at different particle sizes.

 

Size fractions greater than 6 mm can be viably sorted using XRT sorters while size fractions greater than 0.6 mm are more amendable to sorting using dense medium separation (DMS) and spirals. Size fractions less than 0.6 mm are concentrated via hydrometallurgy processes. The average distribution of the REE minerals and the theoretical grade of the XRT sorted mineralized feed for the six core samples, for each size fraction within 20 mm, 10 mm, and 6 mm particles are shown in Table 1.

 

About the Wicheeda REE Property

The 1,708 hectare Wicheeda REE Property, located approximately 80 km northeast of the city of Prince George, British Columbia, is readily accessible by all-weather gravel roads and is nearby to infrastructure, including power transmission lines, the CN railway and major highways.

 

Geologically, the property is situated in the Foreland Belt and within the Rocky Mountain Trench, a major continental geologic feature. The Foreland Belt contains part of a large alkaline igneous province, stretching from the Canadian Cordillera to the southwestern United States, which includes several carbonatite and alkaline intrusive complexes hosting the Aley (niobium), Rock Canyon (REE), and Wicheeda (REE) deposits.

 

Qualified Person

The scientific and technical information contained in this news release as it relates to the Wicheeda REE Property has been reviewed and approved by Kristopher J. Raffle, P.Geo. (BC) Principal and Consultant of APEX Geoscience Ltd. of Edmonton, AB, a director of Defense Metals and a "Qualified Person" as defined in National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. Mr. Raffle verified the data disclosed which includes a review of the analytical and test data underlying the information and opinions contained therein.

 

Methodology and QA/QC

A total of 6 core samples were selected for X-ray transmission measurements. Each sample was imaged using 2-dimensional X-ray transmission measurements to identify greyscale differences in the core samples. The greyscale levelsassociated with the various minerals are identified using QEMSCAN® measurements. The X-ray images are thenmodified using a defined threshold to identify the location and dispersion of the REE minerals and pyrite throughout the core samples. The results of this XRT amenability study are theoretical in nature and may not be representative of actual recoveries obtainable via direct testing using XRT sorting and DMS.

 

Using image analysis techniques on the QEMSCAN® images, the percent removal of low-grade mineralization iscalculated for different theoretical size fractions. The size fractions used in this study were: 20 mm, 10 mm, 6 mm, 3 mm,1.2 mm, and 0.6 mm rectangular particles.
