TSA Reports Rise in Airport Security Breaches in Last 12 Months

MarketJar

Airport security isn’t as tight as you might think. According to the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), there have been at least 300 instances of people bypassing parts of airport security since March 2023. 1 In November, two women faced arrest at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport after breaching a secured exit due to running late for their flight. Meanwhile, at Palm Springs International Airport in February, a ticketed traveler passed through an unstaffed body scanner, prompting authorities to evacuate post-security areas as a precautionary measure. In a separate incident in February, a woman managed to bypass TSA officers who check IDs at Nashville International Airport. She then proceeded to sneak into the bag-screening line. After her belongings passed through the X-ray, she boarded an American Airlines flight without a ticket, eventually flying to Los Angeles International Airport where she was detained by the FBI. As of now, she has not faced charges, with the FBI refraining from commenting on an ongoing investigation. Clear, a private screening service offering an expedited alternative to TSA queues, has also faced scrutiny due to breaches in the past two years. 2 In one instance last year, an individual managed to pass Clear security using a boarding pass retrieved from an airport garbage can. Another incident in 2022 involved TSA officers identifying ammunition in a man's luggage, only to discover that he had utilized false identification to bypass Clear screening. These security concerns are coming to light at a time when the TSA is investing in heightened security measures, including a $3.8 million contract with AI security company Liberty Defense Holdings (TSXV:SCAN) (OTCQB:LDDFF) for its multi-technology security solutions for detecting concealed weapons in high-traffic areas such as airports, stadiums, and schools. This contract focuses on Research and Development to provide the TSA with software, engineering, and enhancements to Liberty Defense ’s High-Definition Advanced Imaging Technology (HD-AIT) Wideband Upgrade Kit to improve detection capabilities and enhance the passenger experience. Better Safety for Today’s Threats Liberty Defense has also begun deploying its HEXWAVE™ system at North American airports to improve screening for passengers and staff, including Denver International, Toronto Pearson, and one unit to the TSA under its On-Person Screening Capability Program for the screening of Aviation Workers. The HEXWAVE™ system uses AI, electromagnetic waves, and 3D imaging to scan and detect potentially dangerous items like metal, 3D-printed plastic guns, powders, and liquids. The process is quick and contactless, allowing individuals to walk through a portal without removing their keys or cell phones. On April 23, Liberty Defense Holdings (TSXV:SCAN) (OTCQB:LDDFF) announced international shipments of HEXWAVE™ to the Subic Bay Airport in the Philippines and to Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Liberty Defense (TSXV:SCAN) (OTCQB:LDDFF) has already made sales in Europe 3 and Asia, 4 with more international deals coming down the pipeline thanks to the company’s robust international distribution network, which is facilitated by two prominent partners in the security and detection industry. With global offices and representation across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia, these partners have deployed thousands of security systems. HEXWAVE perfectly complements the requirements for on-person screening in these locations. Earlier this year, Liberty Defense announced a strategic agreement with Viken Detection to sell 30 HEXWAVE units in 2024. The agreement includes an upfront payment for the first 15 units to accelerate market penetration. Viken Detection, a global leader in threat detection and screening technologies, will incorporate the HEXWAVE walkthrough people screening system into its product portfolio for the Americas. Liberty Defense has been awarded the 2023 'ASTORS' Homeland Security Award from American Security Today (AST) for its HEXWAVE system. It was honored with the Gold ASTORS Award in the Best Metal/Weapons Detection Solution category. The 'ASTORS' Awards Program recognizes industry leaders in physical and border security, cybersecurity, emergency preparedness, law enforcement, and first responders, as well as government agencies at all levels for their efforts to enhance national security.

The drill is turning at VR's maiden drill program on the East Zone conductor at the New Boston polymetallic copper-moly-silver porphyry system in Nevada

VR Resources Ltd.

April 10, 2024, TheNewswire, Vancouver, B.C.: VR Resources Ltd. (TSX.V: VRR, FSE: 5VR; OTCQB: VRRCF ), the " Company ", or “ VR ”, is pleased to announce that the drill is turning on its maiden drill program on its New Boston polymetallic copper-moly-silver porphyry system in west-central Nevada (see photo in Figure 1 ). The program is planned around 2 – 4 drill holes, for between 1,500 and 2,000 metres in total, projected to take approximately one month to complete, with assays expected through May and June. Water supply, heavy equipment services, and camp are all located just six kilometres from the drill, with access off state highway I95. Strategy The drill program is the result of two years of field-based mapping and sampling by VR, and the utilization of four, state-of-the-art geophysical surveys completed in succession, and utilizing technologies not available during the main period of exploration at New Boston from the mid–1960s through the late 1970s.  For example, this drill program will focus on the new, East Zone conductor as delineated by the 3D array, DCIP survey completed in 2023 (see Figure 2 ).   Historic drill holes located to both the east and the south of the west-plunging East Zone conductor are peripheral in nature, based on: conductivity anomaly; potassic alteration; hyperspectral mineralogy, and; surface copper and trace element geochemistry. Yet, they produced intersections including 279 ft @ 0.24% Cu, including 59 ft @ 0.38% Cu, starting at surface.   Look at the cross-section in Figure 3. The large volume DCIP conductor at East Zone is the inferred source of the copper intersected in the historic peripheral drill holes, copper that migrated up-dip to the south in the host limestone stratigraphy. As such, our goal is to drill-test the East Zone conductor itself for the strongest concentrations of conductive copper sulfide in multi-phase quartz vein stockworks. The long-section in Figure 4 demonstrates the potential for hole NB24-001 shown in Figure 1: The drill hole is literally starting in quartz vein rubble with copper sulfide and copper oxide at surface, grading up to 1.7% copper in hand samples, and;   Our planned drill holes at East Zone stay within the structural, stratigraphic and 3D conductivity models for copper mineralization for their entirety.  From VR’s CEO, Dr. Michael Gunning, “ This is our tenth year of continuous and active exploration in Nevada, and our 6 th drill program in advancing five separate greenfields properties in succession.  As a result: we know the porphyry geology of western Nevada; we understand how new exploration technologies can build on historic exploration, and; we know the service companies and logistics in the state.  In short, our VP Exploration, Justin Daley will tell you this is both the most efficient set-up we have ever had, and the best copper target we have ever had, exposed on surface and never previously drilled.   We look forward to providing further updates as our drilling progresses.  In concert with the strengthening price in copper as the Green Economy emerges, New Boston’s time has arrived. Field Videos A short video from several previous site visits are available on the New Boston Project Page on the Company’s website at www.vrr.ca. Also, on the Home Page itself, is a 20 minute video overview of the New Boston project and drill targets, illustrated in PowerPoint.   Technical Information Summary technical and geological information for the Company’s various exploration properties including New Boston is available at the Company’s website at www.vrr.ca. Technical information for this news release has been prepared in accordance with the Canadian regulatory requirements set out in National Instrument 43-101. Justin Daley, P.Geo., VP Exploration and a non-independent Qualified Person oversees and/or participates in all aspects of the Company’s mineral exploration projects, and the content of this news release has been reviewed on behalf of the Company by the CEO, Dr. Michael Gunning, P.Geo., a non-independent Qualified Person. About the New Boston Property Location New Boston is within the Walker Lane mineral belt and structural province in west-central Nevada. More specifically, it is within the co-spatial belts of Jurassic - and Cretaceous-aged copper and moly porphyry deposits, including the Yerington camp and Hall deposit.     New Boston is located in the Garfield Range in Mineral County, approximately 150 km southeast of Reno. Vegetation is sparse in the range; outcrop or colluvium predominate on the property itself, with quaternary cover developed off its eastern border and eastern flank of the range.   The property location facilitates cost-effective exploration, year-round.  Access is from the nearby town of Luning, located just 5 km to the east on State Highway 95 connecting Reno and Las Vegas. The property itself is criss-crossed by a myriad of active, historic trails and roads which are reachable from the highway.   Property Description The New Boston property is large: it consists of 77 claims in one contiguous block approximately 3 x 5km in size and covering 583 hectares in total (1,441 acres). It covers the entire extent of the known copper-moly-silver porphyry-skarn mineral system exposed on surface between Blue Ribbon and East Zone, and its inferred down-dip potential to the north.   The property is on federal land administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). There are no state or federal land use designations, or privately-owned land which impede access to the property; nor is the property within the BLM’s broadly defined area of sage grouse protection.   The property is owned 100% by VR. There are no underlying annual lease payments; nor are there any joint venture or back-in interests. The vendor of the property retains a royalty.   About VR Resources VR is an established junior exploration company based in Vancouver (TSX.V: VRR; Frankfurt: 5VR; OTCQB: VRRCF).

New Cutting-Edge Airborne Hyperspectral Data Confirms Target for Core of Porphyry Copper-Moly System at New Boston; Drill Program Mobilizes

VR Resources Ltd.

April 2, 2024, Vancouver, B.C. - TheNewswire - VR Resources Ltd. (TSX.V: VRR, FSE: 5VR; OTCQB: VRRCF ), the " Company ", or “ VR ”, has received the final data from a state-of-the-art airborne hyperspectral survey covering its New Boston property and polymetallic Cu-Mo-Ag porphyry system in west-central Nevada, and the spring drill program has mobilized. From VR’s President & CEO, Dr. Michael Gunning, “ Historical, boots-on-the-ground exploration was completed by two renowned exploration groups at New Boston through the 1960s and 1970s. VR is building upon that work by utilizing modern and innovative exploration technologies to more specifically identify vectors for copper-bearing vein stockwork centers within the large footprint and polymetallic porphyry-skarn system overall.   We completed a triaxial airborne magnetic survey last spring, including high-resolution radiometrics, followed by a 3-D array, DCIP survey on the ground utilizing the leading, and proprietary technologies at DIAS Geophysical. All three surveys differentiate unique signatures at Jeep Mine and East Zone respectively, located on opposing sides of the central GW fault, itself mineralized at surface for more than a kilometre along strike. Airborne hyperspectral surveys map alteration minerals. They augment property-scale mapping on the ground by providing detailed mineral identification, including compositional variation, which cannot be done visually. Further, the system is especially responsive at New Boston thanks to the excellent bedrock exposure in the Garfield Range, allowing for comparative analysis across the entire mineral system and surrounding district. SpecTIR LLC, NV, is an industry leader in providing hyperspectral data from across the near-visible (VNIR), short (SWIR) and long (LWIR) infra-red wavelengths via their integrated FENIX 1K - OWL technology, and mapping the broadest range of alteration minerals, including the carbonates, clays, micas, quartz, iron, feldspars and garnet, among others. This is especially effective for skarn alteration minerals related to porphyry intrusions at New Boston. For example, Figure 1: There is a strong correlation between high temperature clay minerals identified by the new hyperspectral survey with the potassic alteration in East Zone outlined by our high resolution airborne radiometric survey completed last year. Figure 2: Our first planned drill hole will be collared in quartz vein rubble with copper oxide within that high temperature clay alteration, and will target the conductor plunging westward toward the central GW fault as identified in the new 3D array DCIP data also obtained last year. There are no historic drill holes into the East Zone conductor; you don’t drill what you can’t see. But 45 years later, an array of new geophysical and geochemical tools are showing VR a zonation in the New Boston porphyry system across the central GW boundary zone and fault: in potassic alteration; in vein intensity and geometry; in IP and conductivity anomalies; in magnetic patterns; in alteration mineral assemblages, and; in copper geochemistry. The excavator in the photo taken last week in Figure 3 shows you that we are ready to go.  Please stay tuned as we mobilize this maiden drill program into what we believe is the high temperature center for copper vein stockwork mineralization in the eastern cell of the large footprint and polymetallic copper-moly-silver system at New Boston.” Field Videos A short video from the recent field visit, along with video from several previous site visits are available on the New Boston Project Page on the Company’s website at www.vrr.ca. Also, on the Home Page itself, is a 20 minute video review of the New Boston project and drill targets, illustrated in PowerPoint.  Shareholders are encouraged to follow the Company’s YouTube and Instagram channels for further field updates as drilling progresses.   Technical Information Summary technical and geological information for the Company’s various exploration properties including New Boston is available at the Company’s website at www.vrr.ca.

VR Enters Agreement to Sell Hecla-Kilmer REE Property for $3.6 M*

VR Resources Ltd.

-VR to retain existing royalty purchase rights. -VR to direct funds to drilling New Boston porphyry copper project, Nevada.   NR-24-03 March 11, 2024 – TheNewswire - Vancouver, B.C.: VR Resources Ltd. (TSX.V: VRR, FSE: 5VR; OTCBB: VRRCF ), the " Company ", or “ VR ”, has entered into a binding, Definitive Agreement (the “ Agreement” ) to sell its Hecla-Kilmer REE mineral property (“H-K”) located in Ontario in a transaction valued at $3.6 M in cash and shares, which will provide non-dilutive funding for a drill program planned for this spring on its New Boston copper-moly-silver porphyry system in Nevada.   The binding terms of the Definitive Agreement include:   Sale of a 100% interest in H-K (“the Acquisition”) to Neotech Metals Corp. (“Neotech”: C.NTMC), pursuant to a binding, Definitive Agreement dated March 8 th, 2024   A cash consideration from Neotech of $1,000,000, of which $600,000 is paid on March 28 th, and the $400,000 balance paid no later than April 26 th (“the Closing”);   Issuance of 4,00 0,000 common shares in the capital of NeoTech, to be released per the terms of a 30 month escrow agreement, which includes release of 500,000 shares on Closing;   VR retains its existing right to purchase, at any time, a 1.5% NSR from the original property vendors;   VR has the right to nominate one person to the Board of Directors or Advisory Committee of NeoTech;   Closing is subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange and Canadian Securities Exchange.     From VR’s CEO, Dr. Michael Gunning, “ I am excited to see Hecla Kilmer land in the hands of a dedicated rare earth element company, and further expand its diversified REE project portfolio which spans Canada and the western United States. North America’s production of the high value, heavy PMREOs is currently zero as the Green Economy transition gets underway, and Hecla-Kilmer has the potential to change that.   We remain committed to advising Neotech as appropriate on the near-term work that we have previously outlined to advance Hecla-Kilmer through metallurgy and resource evaluation studies.  Beyond H-K, and as a major shareholder in Neotech, we hope to be able to contribute our accumulated expertise in the REE space towards furthering the growth of their diversified REE strategy.   We will retain an interest in H-K for our shareholders through our existing royalty buy-down agreement. Further, we retain all of our existing claims away from the H-K property, thus preserving our KSZ regional exploration strategy.     Most importantly for VR, though; the funds from this transaction will be allocated directly into the ground on the copper-moly-silver porphyry system on our New Boston property.  More specifically, on the heels of this announcement, and with no dilution to our shareholders, we intend to activate plans for a maiden drill program at New Boston this spring, focused on new DCIP geophysical targets for copper in the heart of the large footprint and polymetallic Cu-Mo-Ag porphyry system exposed at surface over a 4 km strike.”   From NeoTech’s CEO, Reagan Glacier, “The acquisition of Hecla-Kilmer is highly strategic to Neotech, as it solidifies the Company’s position in the REE and Critical Metals sector, adding both a significant, high-quality REE discovery with demonstrated potential, and a large, prospective land package with significant upside potential. Neotech is advancing a multitrack agenda of aggressive exploration and strategic REE district consolidation, and this transaction represents an important step in our path forward.””    * The value of the announced transaction is based on the closing market price of Neotech common shares on March 08, 2024; there are no assurances that VR will be able to realize this sum through the sale of Neotech common shares in the future.   Technical Information Technical information for this news release has been prepared in accordance with the Canadian regulatory requirements set out in National Instrument 43-101.

Energy Plug Technologies Corp secures first clean energy partnership with Ximen Mining

Energy Plug Technologies Corp

Energy Plug Technologies Corp CEO Broderick Gunning joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share details on a strategic partnership with Ximen Mining for a transformative two-phase clean power storage and generation project. This initiative is set to play a pivotal role in stabilizing, supporting, and powering the infrastructure of the Kenville mine, located in Nelson, British Columbia. Gunning explained that this collaborative effort will bring "green" infrastructure to Ximen, resulting in a significant reduction in the use of diesel fuel, leading to substantial cost savings on electricity bills. Energy Plug's cutting-edge Battery Energy Storage System will serve as a cornerstone for this endeavor, ensuring uninterrupted power supply during outages and contributing to a stable and efficient mining operation. The project is divided into two distinct phases, each with its own set of benefits. Phase One involves the installation of three 10kW lithium iron phosphate storage batteries, which will be seamlessly integrated with solar panels to provide power to three essential buildings on the site. This initial phase sets the foundation for a more sustainable and environmentally friendly energy ecosystem at the Kenville mine. Phase Two represents a significant leap forward in the project's scope. It encompasses the installation of a 1MW battery storage system meticulously designed to cater to the energy needs of large compressors, ventilation systems, and lighting across the entire mine site. Additionally, Phase Two incorporates the deployment of a 20kW riverside turbine for power generation, harnessing the natural flow of water as a renewable energy source. One notable aspect of this partnership is the company's ability to execute this project with its existing capabilities, foregoing the need for its proposed 100,000 sq ft. 10-gigawatt-hour facility, which was planned as part of a joint venture agreement with the Malahat Nation in British Columbia. This demonstrates Energy Plug Technologies Corp's commitment to delivering sustainable energy solutions efficiently and effectively. In summary, the collaboration between Energy Plug Technologies Corp and Ximen Mining heralds a significant step toward greener, more sustainable mining practices while ensuring cost-efficiency and uninterrupted operations. This innovative project sets an exemplary standard for environmentally conscious energy solutions in the mining industry and showcases the potential for clean power to revolutionize mining operations.
