Is The Time Right for M&A In The Mining Sector? Silvercorp Metals’ Acquisition Of OreCorp Adds Timely Growth With A Promising Project

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Companies in the junior mining sector are currently operating in a challenging capital-raising environment. The mining industry is highly cyclical, making it susceptible to fluctuations in commodity prices and other macroeconomic headwinds, making investors cautious about funding new exploration and development projects as potential returns may be uncertain. Against this backdrop, mergers and acquisitions (M&A) has emerged as a cost-effective avenue for well-capitalized companies to pursue disciplined growth and diversification. By leveraging their financial resources, technical expertise, and market presence, these established companies can effectively mitigate development and operating risks while unlocking the true value of quality projects. A study conducted by EY highlights that M&A deals in the mining sector have shown an upward trend, and Silvercorp’s recent acquisition might be a testament to the acceleration of this industry trend. Silvercorp Metals Inc. ( NYSE AMERICAN: SVM; TSX: SVM ) is an established Canadian mining company boasting a strong balance sheet, combining a track record of profitability along with growth opportunities, including fully-funded ‘organic’ growth within its existing low-cost mines, as well as ongoing strategic M&A efforts — has one recent example which could prove to be a home run. On August 6, Silvercorp and OreCorp Limited announced the signing of a binding agreement that will result in Silvercorp acquiring all the outstanding shares of OreCorp. The deal enhances Silvercorp’s asset base by adding a largely de-risked, low-cost gold project, while preserving the company’s cash for mine development. Under the agreement, OreCorp shareholders will receive AUD $0.15 in cash and 0.0967 of a Silvercorp common share for each OreCorp share, representing a total consideration of approximately AUD $240 million. Existing OreCorp shareholders will own 17.8% of Silvercorp's common shares after the deal is completed. The primary objectives of the acquisition are to create in Silvercorp a diversified and highly profitable precious metals company, provide a re-rating opportunity through the successful development of OreCorp's Nyanzaga Gold Project in Tanzania, and enable Silvercorp and OreCorp investors to be part of a company with greater access to capital, higher liquidity, increased scale and enhanced capital markets relevance. With its financial strength and the technical team's track record and expertise, Silvercorp is well-positioned to build, optimize, and further explore Nyanzaga, as well as pursue additional M&A opportunities. As part of the agreement, Silvercorp provided OreCorp with approximately AUD $28 million in funding through an equity placement to advance the project development, including resettlement activities and early project works, laying the groundwork for imminent full-scale construction. The board of OreCorp has unanimously recommended that shareholders vote in favor of the transaction, which is subject to various closing conditions, including shareholder and court approvals. Silvercorp has also committed to seeking a listing on the Australian Securities Exchange. Silvercorp looks to stand out in the mining industry by prioritizing cash flow generation, actively pursuing diverse avenues for growth, and upholding responsible mining practices. The company's strategic initiatives may have the potential to propel Silvercorp to a new level, while also highlighting enduring dedication to enhancing shareholder value.

Chainlink Surges 15% In the Weekly Charts – Can It Catch Up to Borroe.Finance?

Blockchain Digest

September didn't start as planned for Chainlink ($LINK). Yet it has turned around $LINK’s recent bearish fortunes to record a 15% weekly boost. However, analysts seem more focused on Borroe.Finance ($ROE). The latter focuses solely on providing instant loans to the Web 3 industry. Yet, investors say it can become one of the best DeFi coins available. Are these expectations reasonable? Let's find out. >>BUY $ROE TOKENS NOW<< Chainlink ($LINK) Builds on Rising Partnerships in September Despite recent bearish conditions, Chainlink's ($LINK) network activity has remained high. One of Chainlink's standout features among top altcoins has been its rising partnerships in 2023. Chainlink ($LINK) has continuously sought partnerships to increase its presence in the DeFi space. $LINK was trading at 6.02 on September 3, two days after the market-wide slump. By September 12, $LINK dropped slightly by 1.1% to $5.95. Then, by September 19, $LINK had grown by 15.2% to $6.86. The excitement around those partnerships has increased Chainlink's ($LINK) performance in the current bear market. On September 14, Chainlink announced a partnership with ANZ Bank in Australia. Likewise, on August 30, Chainlink announced successful tokenization tests with the SWIFT inter-banking system. Analysts say $LINK could rise by 19.6% to $8.21 given Chainlink’s growing number of partnerships. Borroe.Finance ($ROE): The Financial Fuel the Web 3 Industry Needs In business, access to instant cash flow is everything.

Australia's Leading Bank Partners with Chainlink: Can Arbitrum and Borroe.Finance Compete with $LINK?

Blockchain Digest

Chainlink's institutional adoption is about to rise thanks to its latest partnership with ANZ banking group. Elsewhere, Arbitrum ($ARB) faces stiff competition from competitors like Base Network, causing its TVL to drop. Yet, Borroe.Finance ($ROE) seems to be in the clouds, especially after the recent sell-off in the second presale stage. Will $ROE eventually become a top ICO? Let's find out. >>BUY $ROE TOKENS NOW<< Arbitrum's ($ARB) Falling TVL Shows Competition with Other Layer 2 Networks Arbitrum's total value locked (TVL) has fallen sharply since early August as subsequent market crashes have reduced its network usage. On August 10, Arbitrum's ($ARB) TVL stood at $2.02 billion before falling to $1.17 billion on September 20. The fall follows a major drop in Arbitrum's positive investor sentiment after the market crashes in August and early September. $ARB had dropped to $0.98 on August 17 after the market-wide slump. The crash of September 1 worsened the bear market, causing $ARB to fall by 10.2% to $0.88. Arbitrum's ($ARB) falling TVL could also be down to competition from other layer-2 networks. Since August, Arbitrum has faced competition from Coinbase's Base Network. On September 14, Arbitrum's ($ARB) daily transaction count reached 878,000. For comparison, Base Network's daily transactions reached $1.88 million on the same day. Analysts say $ARB will struggle to recover if Arbitrum faces more competition from its rivals. These analysts conclude that $ARB could drop by 10.2% to $0.79 if the Base Network maintains pressure on Arbitrum. Borroe.Finance: Community Marketplace Records 58% Rise Within 24 Hours Blockchain technology is all about leveraging the power of the community to create technology-based solutions to real-world problems.

Funding requests on Borroe.Finance are typically approved within 1 hour or less. Furthermore, Borroe.Finance looks to fund 80 - 90% of fundraising requests. To smoothen community lending, Borroe.Finance platform uses fractionalized NFTs to represent collateral. These fractionalized NFTs are then sold off on a marketplace to investors from all over the Web 3 world. Via this process, companies can raise funds by selling their invoices to communities that support them. Various perks come with being a member of Borroe.Finance ($ROE). Users enjoy low fees, high discounts, and rewards for being active members. Out of all new ICOs, Borroe.Finance combines a strong real-world utility with its incredible levels of market hype. Within 24 hours of entering Stage 2 of its presale, $ROE has sold 58% of its available tokens. By Stage 3, $ROE would rise by 33.3% from its current price of $0.0150 to $0.0200. So, join while there’s still some supply left at this price. >>BUY $ROE TOKENS NOW<< Australian "ANZ" Bank Explores Chainlink's CCIP On September 15, 2023, the Australian and New Zealand (ANZ) Banking Group announced a partnership with Chainlink ($LINK). The partnership would allow ANZ to use Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol to test the purchase of tokenized assets. The latest Chainlink partnership brought slight positive momentum to $LINK's price. $LINK was trading at $5.93 on September 1 after the market slump. Following the announcement of Chainlink's partnership with ANZ, $LINK rose by 7.2% to $6.36 on September 15. As excitement around the partnership grew, $LINK grew by another 8.6% to $6.91 on September 20.

After Achieving 100% Cancer Remission Rates In Preclinical Studies, Starpax Magnetodrones Head For Human Trials

Benzinga

By Rachael Green, Benzinga Starpax Biopharma is preparing to start clinical trials this year with its patented Starpax cancer treatment platform across six unmet needs, including pancreatic, breast, colorectal, head & neck, uterus and prostate cancer. Solid cancers like the ones Starpax will focus on in the upcoming trials account for 89% of all cancer deaths – that’s largely due to the fact that solid tumors are so difficult to treat. But Micheal Gareau, Founder and President of Starpax Biopharma, is on both a public and personal mission to change that after the disease claimed the lives of two brothers and his father and his third brother and sister are presently under treatment for cancer. And he has an impressive team with deep expertise in the space around him to help achieve this goal. The non-exhaustive roster includes such notable names as André Monette, former President at Johnson & Johnson France, Dr. Lisa Matar, former President of Eli Lilly (Canada) and John Helou, former president of Pfizer (Canada), Dr. Jacques Jolivet, holder of the King Georges V Silver Jubilee Medal in Oncology, and Berthe Latreille, who recently retired as COO of JP Morgan Investment Bank in London, all active on the board of directors. Here’s how this never-seen-before cancer treatment platform works. Why Solid Cancers Are Harder To Treat Anticancer drugs are usually injected in the blood network. The drug needs to circulate in 60,000 miles of blood vessels hoping to reach the tumor. Unfortunately studies have demonstrated that just 0.7% of the cancer drug dose actually reaches the tumor while nearly 99% of this toxic agent continues to circulate in the rest of the patient’s body causing unwanted side effects. The second difficulty, after the drug reaches the tumor, is to be able to distribute the drug throughout its entire volume. As the tumor continues to grow, the blood vessels become chaotic, malfunctioning or collapse, creating hypoxic zones (low level of oxygen areas) and making it difficult to diffuse the drug throughout the whole volume of the tumor. Several studies around the world have demonstrated that 90% of the tumor volume receives little or no drug at all creating a major resistance to treatment that systemic chemotherapy or immunotherapy have never been able to solve. The Starpax technology has been conceived specifically to solve this resistance problem to treatment. How The Starpax Platform Is Aiming To Overcome Those Challenges Starpax combines the power of four scientific disciplines: microbiology, biochemistry, electromagnetism engineering and AI into a two-part platform – the Magnetodrones and the Polartrak – that work together to deliver cancer drugs directly into tumors, trap them inside the tumors and ensure the spread into every part of them. Starpax Magnetodrones are self-propelled bacteria that are injected directly into a tumor. The non-pathogenic bacteria can swim between tumor cells without the need of blood vessels and are capable of carrying a variety of different cancer drugs. They die about 30 minutes to an hour after injection. In order to ensure they are distributed in the entire volume of the tumor rather than just sitting near the injection site, Starpax uses magneto-aerotactic bacteria. That means they’re sensitive to very specific magnetic fields, and they naturally accumulate in low-oxygen environments. Their sensitivity to magnetic fields comes into play with the PolarTrak, a device inside which the patient is positioned, that creates unique magnetic fields. Instead of leaving the Magnetodrones free-floating throughout the patient’s body, the Polartrak creates a magnetic sphere around the tumor that contains the Magnetodrones and forces them to distribute throughout the tumor’s whole volume without circulating in blood vessels. The combined result of the PolarTrak and Magnetodrones is a platform that can deliver powerful cancer-fighting drugs directly into a tumor and ensure that they are spread throughout its entire volume. Results of preclinical trials, report 100% of the dose reached the tumor delivering 50 times more drug in the tumor with 800 less toxic molecules in the patient’s body, a major improvement over current systemic chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Subjects also reported a 100% remission rate with no significant side effects. Building on those groundbreaking preclinical results, Starpax is preparing to start clinical trials this year to test the patented cancer treatment platform in humans. During those trials, a cancer drug that has already been approved by the FDA and has been in use by humans for over 20 years will be attached to the surface of Magnetodrones. The company is planning to seek fast-track designation from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to help get this new technology to the patients who need it as soon as possible.

This Company Is Using AI To Establish Trust In A Digitally Connected World

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga In today's increasingly digital world, the prevalence of fraud is a growing concern. The rapid advancement of technology and the widespread use of the internet have created new opportunities for unscrupulous individuals to exploit unsuspecting individuals and organizations. With the convenience and anonymity offered by the digital space, scammers can carry out illegal activities from anywhere in the world with greater ease than ever before. From online identity theft to phishing scams, digital fraud has become more sophisticated, making it harder for people to detect and protect themselves. The sheer volume of personal and financial information being shared online also increases the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access. Trust Stamp (NASDAQ: IDAI) is a company looking to revolutionize digital security and increase its penetration. The company is a global provider of AI-powered, privacy-first trust and identity services used across multiple sectors – such as banking and finance, real estate, communications, regulatory compliance and government. Trust Stamp offers a range of innovative services. Their biometric capture and analysis technology enables secure and convenient identity verification, allowing businesses to streamline onboarding processes. By integrating advanced document verification, Trust Stamp helps verify the authenticity of important documents, reducing the risk of fraud. In the face of increasing threats, Trust Stamp also provides cryptocurrency security and compliance solutions. Their expertise in this area assists businesses in safeguarding their digital assets, ensuring compliance with regulatory frameworks and protecting against unauthorized access or misuse. By facilitating accurate and reliable identity verification, Trust Stamp helps build trust between parties engaging in digital transactions, fostering secure interactions in a digital world. Unlike other companies that may enable AI to make complex decisions regarding users' authentication and identification, Trust Stamp has constructed a process that uses ML and various metric and statistical methods to audit the AI system. Their AI is used to extract information needed for identity verification but does not make the final decision, which helps to ensure that all decisions made using their systems are transparent and auditable. While Trust Stamp’s mission is similar to companies like Mitek (NASDAQ: MITK) and Nuance Communications (NASDAQ: NUAN), Trust Stamp has developed a proprietary process for tokenizing identity using an irreversible transformation via a convolutional neural network, creating an identity token known as IT2. The IT2 is generated by these AI processes, and data is removed and destroyed, making the token safe to store and reuse in the future. This process allows Trust Stamp to offer two unique value propositions to its customers: reauthentication and deduplication. Reauthentication enables users to reauthenticate using biometrics with ease, and deduplication allows for deduplication at scale to prevent synthetic identity fraud. Additionally, Trust Stamp is utilizing AI to improve the capture process and enhance users' experience. Its work focuses on using AI and language models to dynamically instruct users on how to take a quality picture, guiding them on the necessary changes to phone position, lighting and head position, among other parameters. This technology not only makes facial matching accessible to those with special needs but also vastly reduces bias in outcomes from AI-powered decision processes. As the digital landscape continues to evolve, Trust Stamp's emphasis on privacy and data protection is aimed at ensuring that users’ personal information is safeguarded at all times. By providing secure and trusted identity services, Trust Stamp positions itself as a crucial ally in the ongoing battle against fraud and identity-related issues, supporting a safer and more secure digital environment for all stakeholders.
