• Mineral property exploration company StraightUp Resources has pursued greater scale of its acquisitions and holdings in recent months, including properties in Canada, the United States, and Peru
• StraightUp announced recently that it has upgraded its listing in the United States to the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol STUPF to gain access to a larger investor base
• StraightUp continues to be listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol ST as well
• The company’s flagship operations are in Ontario, where it has obtained options in several properties within the prolific Red Lake Mining Division’s greenstone belt

StraightUp Resources (CSE: ST) (OTCQB: STUPF), a company focused on acquiring select mining properties and a global scale of exploring for minerals, is expanding its access to investors by uplisting to the OTCQB Venture Market in the United States under the symbol STUPF. StraightUp has expanded its resources in recent months, bringing its precious metals asset portfolio to a level that includes options for the RLX North, RLX South, Belanger Red Lake, Bear Head and the Ferdinand gold properties in Ontario, Canada’s well-known greenstone belt, acquisition of the West Cat gold and silver mine in Nevada, United States, and the potential acquisition of the Mallay silver mine and processing plant in the Lima region, Peru during the next 60 days through a right of exclusivity agreement (“ROE”) for all outstanding shares in Premier Silver Corp. The OTCQB listing joins StraightUp’s trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol ST. “Upgrading to the OTCQB provides a greater reach in today’s marketplace, one that transcends borders and is truly global,” StraightUp President and CEO Mark Brezer stated (https://ibn.fm/nd0bL). “The new listing gives StraightUp improved access to millions of U.S. investors during our next phase of growth and, ultimately, connects us with a much larger audience. I expect our shareholders to benefit through increases in trading liquidity and expanded retail and institutional investors.” StraightUp’s exploration of its resources in Canada has given it a strong position within a region recognized as one of Canada’s most fruitful gold mining districts. The Red Lake district has a history of producing over 30 million ounces of gold, and the RLX projects are located close to the Red Lake Mine complex that has estimated reserves of 3.23 million ounces as of a 2019 report (https://ibn.fm/zDOOA). Drilling on the Bear Head Gold Project recorded shallow values of 11.09 g/t of gold over 1.79 meters and 3.98 g/t of gold over 2.3 meters, lying 1 kilometer from the Dorothy Main gold deposit that holds non-compliant historical resources of 46,600 ounces of gold at 6.17 g/t and 14 kilometers from the Golden Patricia former gold mine that produced 620,000 ounces of gold at an average grade of 15.2 g/t from 1988-1997 (https://ibn.fm/do6NG). The company has completed high-resolution heli-borne magnetic surveys (“MAGs”) on some of the Canadian properties in preparation for drill programs there. The Nevada acquisition includes an unpatented lode mining claim on a 20.66-acre land package within a zone that produced about 2.3 million ounces of gold and more than 3 million ounces of silver during the 1990s. The most recent agreement regarding negotiations for the Peru property would potentially grant StraightUp access to primarily silver projects including one of the largest silver mining land packages in Peru with over $120 million in capitalized expenditures currently in care and maintenance mode, according to a news release about the discussions (https://ibn.fm/u6v3D). Premier plans to provide processing services to other mining operations in the region, which would further increase its revenue potential. “Taking a stake in a country that contains more silver resources than any other country and is ranked second in the world for production gives us a shot at tremendous upside potential, especially if we see a strong decade ahead for metals,” Brezer stated. “We are optimistic our companies can synchronize to mutually benefit one another and shareholders alike.” For more information, visit the company’s website at www.StraightUpResources.com.

• The agreement between LQwD and Maynard allows the company to continue leveraging its position as a public company to enhance trust with its products and services
• LQwD has purchased an additional CAD $4.5 million (USD $3.6 million) worth of Bitcoin, now holding a total of 133 Bitcoins at an individual cost of CAD $59,000 (USD $47,500) each

Financial technology company LQwD FinTech (TSX.V: LQWD) (OTCQB: LQWDF) announced it has entered into an agreement with Maynard Communications Limited for various communications services in anticipation of the launch of its proprietary Lightning Network platform-as-a-service (“PaaS”). Dated November 4, the agreement will be in effect for a period of six months, with the opportunity to renew each month after that. The services that Maynard will provide to LQwD will include but are not limited to search engine optimization, media relations consulting, digital media branding campaigns, project management, and multimedia services (https://ibn.fm/77YYS). Maynard manages a team in Hong Kong and has provided successful marketing for a broad range of companies listed on the TSX Venture Exchange. “Branding, media relations, and corporate awareness is of utmost importance and a critical component of our business strategy as we prepare to launch our suite of institutional-grade products and payment channels on the rapidly growing Bitcoin Lightning Network,” Shone Anstey, LQwD CEO, commented on the agreement. “We selected Maynard based on their proven success, and they are a perfect fit to help LQwD’s ambitious goals of rapidly becoming one of the most dominant global Lightning Network service providers.” Meanwhile, following the close of LQwD’s previous financing of CAD $8 million (USD $6.4 million) at the end of October 2021, the company has purchased an additional CAD $4.5 million (USD $3.6 million) worth of Bitcoin (https://ibn.fm/xBgpS).

The company now holds these coins at an average cost of CAD $59,000 (USD $47,500) per coin. The purchase of additional coins also signifies the strengthening of the company’s strategic growth initiative to accumulate Bitcoin as a reserve asset. Anstey commented on the additional Bitcoin purchase, stating that it was a major step for the company to progress its short-term business goals to launch its PaaS commercially, then focus on onboarding clients and providing them with strong connectivity to the Lightning Network. “This plays into our long-term objective of having a significant number of Lightning Network payment channels with Bitcoin staked on them (a requirement of the network) that are active across the Lightning Network and allow us to forward and route transactions as a major network participant and earn fees for doing so,” Anstey explained. LQwD’s proprietary Lightning Network PaaS allows payments to be sent instantly, securely, and inexpensively worldwide. The network itself is scalable, global, open, inclusive, permissionless, and decentralized. It works through nodes connected via payment channels that enable instantaneous and cheap payments at scale. The agreement with Maynard will allow LQwD to continue leveraging its position as a public company to enhance trust with its products and services, including the leveraging of its shares as currency for acquisition, roll-up, and growth, allowing for the attraction of top industry talent. Lightning Network is already on the radar of some of the more renowned names in the industry, including Twitter and Square. For more information, visit the company’s website at www.LQwDFinTech.com.

• Michigan lawmakers approve bills designed to restrict medical marijuana cultivation by caregivers
• Marijuana sales in the state are increasing.
• Top priority is concern about the safety of untested medical marijuana grown by caregivers.

With Michigan seeing record sales this year, the state is looking to provide regulation over the growing market in efforts to ensure quality and safety. Recently, Michigan lawmakers approved bills designed to restrict medical marijuana cultivation by caregivers (https://ibn.fm/tmflR). Growth and legislation are key points that cannabis company Hero Technologies (OTC: HENC) is paying close attention to, as the company works to strengthen its presence in the state’s cannabis space. “Michigan marijuana sales broke another record in July,” an article headline recently proclaimed (https://ibn.fm/t7uxL). The article reported that, during July, Michigan exceeded “$171 million in cannabis transactions, according to data from a state regulatory body that was released on Friday. Andrew Brisbo, executive director of Michigan’s Marijuana Regulatory Agency (“MRA”), touted the $128 million in adult-use sales and $43 million in medical cannabis purchases in July, saying, ‘Another record month!’” These record-setting sales are prompting increased legal scrutiny and legislation. Recently several bills that would change the state’s 2008 voter-approved Michigan Medical Marijuana Act and caregiver program moved out of committee and are headed to the House floor. “House Bills 5300–5302, known as the Michigan Cannabis Safety Act, tighten rules for caregivers related to plant allowances, product testing and where they can grow medical marijuana,” the article reports. “The new legislation would create a new specialty medical grower (‘SMG’) license for caregivers that includes a variety of regulations.” Currently, Michigan law requires medical marijuana caregivers to register with the state but doesn’t require a license. “In addition, these caregivers can have up to five patients and grow 12 plants per patient without many rules on testing, labeling or tracking of their products,” the article noted. “Caregivers can cultivate a maximum of 72 plants if they are also a registered medical marijuana patient.” An October hearing regarding the marijuana legislation was packed, showing intense public interest in marijuana legislation. During this hearing, committee chair Roger Hauck stated, “I want to let you know that we recognize it is critical that Michigan’s patients, including those with cancer and other severe or terminal illnesses, are not separated from their caregivers.” He then assured the audience that the committee reviews testimony submitted by constituents. A top priority for lawmakers is concern about the safety of untested medical marijuana grown by caregivers. Likewise, quality and safety are priorities for Hero Technologies, a cannabis company working toward a vertically integrated business model. The company’s strategic business plan includes space for both medical and recreational cannabis cultivation, production licenses, distribution licenses, consumer packaging, and retail and dispensary operations that make the company a multistate operator.

• Cannabis sales are projected to increase as NUGS makes move to increase premium cannabis production
• MOU grants rights for NUGS to purchase 10% of the facility at a valuation of $15 million for the entire facility
• Agreement strengthens company’s status as an emerging leader in the vertically integrated California cannabis marketplace

As sales of high-quality cannabis in California, the largest cannabis market in the country, are projected to increase, Cannabis Strategic Ventures (OTCQB: NUGS) is taking strategic steps to ensure its position in the growing space. Most recently, the company inked a Memorandum of Understanding with Devine Solution Inc. with the end goal of increasing its cannabis production capacity (https://ibn.fm/o3ES3). “Sales of legal adult-use cannabis are expected to increase greatly in the state of California between 2018 and 2024,” reported Statista (https://ibn.fm/He5e7). “Sales already reached 2.5 billion U.S. dollars in 2018 (the largest U.S. market) and are expected to grow to roughly 7.2 billion by 2024.” Cannabis Strategic Ventures is aligning its long-term strategy with that growth in mind, as the company remains focused on shaping the future of the cannabis industry by striving for constant evolution in products, places and people. The MOU outlines NUGS’ plans relating to its proposed acquisition of an indoor cannabis cultivation facility owned by California-based Devine. Based on the terms of the recently signed MOU, NUGS is moving forward to purchase 10% of the facility at a valuation of $15 million for the entire facility; the agreement includes an option to purchase an additional 41% of the facility (which would comprise a controlling 51% stake) at this same valuation, which would results in a controlling 51% stake for Cannabis Strategic Ventures. “This deal represents the potential to sharply increase our premium cannabis production capacity and materially augment our status as an emerging leader in the vertically integrated California cannabis marketplace,” said NUGS CEO Simon Yu. “We have already amassed years of experience refining our cultivation methods and strains in an outdoor framework with our NUGS Farm North site. Adding a top-tier indoor cultivation operation stands to help us further build upon that success and drive more volume in the premium flower market, which has powerful implications given our recent expansion into the dispensary marketplace with our MDRN Tree downtown LA dispensary location. The combination grants NUGS expanding operations at both ends of the farm-to-sale model.” The 15,600-square foot facility is located in Sacramento, California, and has the potential to house an estimated 500 grow lights. The existing infrastructure has the potential to produce up to three pounds of premium exotic cannabis flower per light per harvest, with a projected 5.75 harvests per year. That would mean the potential for more than 7,000 pounds of premium cannabis flower per year for NUGS, which is one of the largest publicly traded marijuana cultivators in the United States. Cannabis Strategic Ventures also has a wholly owned subsidiary — NUGS Farm North — that is a fully state legal licensed Cannabis cultivator in the state of California. The property has more than six acres of greenhouse. Cannabis Strategic Ventures cultivates and sells cannabis biomass and related cannabis products to the legal cannabis market.

• Mullen is led by CEO and Founder David Michery, a seasoned executive with more than 25 years of management, marketing, distressed assets, and business restructuring experience

Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ: MULN) is a Southern California-based automotive company that owns and partners with several synergistic businesses working toward the unified goal of creating clean and scalable energy solutions. Mullen has evolved over the past decade in sync with consumers and technology trends. Today, the company is working diligently to provide exciting EV options built entirely in the United States and made to fit perfectly into the American consumer’s life. Mullen strives to make EVs more accessible than ever by building an end-to-end ecosystem that takes care of all aspects of EV ownership. Commencement of Trading on Nasdaq On November 5, 2021, Mullen announced its commencement of trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market. “Today is a monumental day for Mullen Automotive. I am especially proud of our team, investors and all who have believed in Mullen and taken us to this point as a publicly traded company on the Nasdaq Capital Market,” David Michery, CEO and Chairman of Mullen Automotive, stated in the news release. “Trading on Nasdaq now opens us up to new investors, both institutional and retail shareholders, and broadens our awareness and company profile, while increasing awareness of Mullen and our technology platform and opening new opportunities in EV and beyond. The road ahead has never been brighter for Mullen, and I am proud to lead us into the future.” The milestone came in the wake of the company’s stock-for-stock merger with Net Element Inc. The Mullen FIVE The Mullen FIVE EV Crossover, debuting at the Los Angeles International Auto Show (“LAIAS”) on November 17, 2021, embodies Mullen’s Southern California roots with an inspired design focused on two complementary Golden State themes – California landscape and California urban.

Mullen’s Advanced Manufacturing and Engineering Facility (“AMEC”) currently occupies 124,000 square feet of manufacturing space. The total available land on the property is over 100 acres, and Mullen is moving ahead with plans to build out another 1.2 million square feet of manufacturing space to support class 1 and class 2 EV cargo vans and the Mullen FIVE EV Crossover. On the expanded site, Mullen plans to build a body shop, a fully automated paint shop and a general assembly shop. EV Market Outlook The global EV market was reported to consist of 3,269,671 units in 2019, a figure that is expected to grow at a CAGR of 21.1% through 2030 to a total of 26,951,318 units worldwide. This market’s monetary value was estimated at $162.34 billion in 2019 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 22.6%, resulting in an approximate value of $802.81 billion by 2027. The primary driver for this exponential growth is a worldwide increase in vehicle emissions regulations. Management Team Mullen is led by an executive team with extensive EV, OEM and, high-growth startup experience. David Michery is the CEO and Founder of Mullen and has been leading the company and its divisions since inception in 2014. With over 25 years of executive management, marketing, distressed assets, and business restructuring experience, Mr. Michery brings a wealth of relevant knowledge and expertise to the Mullen brand. He has notably created 12 trademarks so far to develop the company brand and vision.

• Mydecine has filed a technology patent application that allows for the creation of nanoemulsion-empowered formulations to improve, stabilize, and increase the bioavailability of ingredients
• The company aims to use the nanoemulsion technology to enhance the bioavailability and optimize the delivery of compounds that are inspired by traditional ingredients
• In September, Mydecine filed its final patent application for MYCO-003, one of its lead drug candidates for enhanced treatment of anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder
• MYCOF is steadily strengthening its IP portfolio as it seeks to reimagine the treatment of mental health and addiction

Mydecine Innovations Group (NEO: MYCO) (OTC: MYCOF), an emerging biotechnology and digital company dedicated to efficiently developing first- and second-generation novel therapeutics to treat PTSD, addiction, and other mental health disorders, has achieved a significant milestone for its drug development pipeline. The Denver-based company recently filed a technology patent application that will cover as well as allow for the creation of formulations that use nanoemulsion technology to improve, stabilize, increase bioavailability, and make repeatable properties of ingredients from traditional medicines. The formulations to be covered by the patent are Generally Recognized as Safe (“GRAS”) – an FDA certification that designates that a food substance or chemical additive is considered safe by experts (https://ibn.fm/WYhxm). An advanced drug delivery system, nanoemulsion has the potential of improving the bioavailability of multiple active pharmaceutical ingredients (“APIs”). In addition, it offers enhanced stability, fast digestibility, controlled release, and protection against degradation (https://ibn.fm/wLgMH). Specifically, Mydecine is targeting the enhanced bioavailability and controlled release capabilities of the nanoemulsion technology. The system’s controlled-release capability, for example, will be instrumental in the company’s active drug development by aiding in micro-dosing and customizing dosages. Similarly, Mydecine’s GRAS-pending formulations will provide an opportunity to enhance the bioavailability of natural compounds found in traditional medicine, including reishi and cordyceps, allowing them to be added to a growing variety of consumer products to achieve improved benefits. “By fine-tuning our ingredients and extraction processes, we are able to deliver these valuable properties more accurately and effectively to consumers,” said Rob Roscow, the Chief Science Officer at MYCOF. On his part, CEO Josh Bartch noted that the patent application had introduced an additional wall of IP protection that covers vital technologically innovative properties of compounds that can empower multiple over-the-counter (“OTC”) supplements and consumer products. “The compatibility of these formulas as patent-protected ingredients has Mydecine excited to develop a wide variety of licensing opportunities,” Josh added. “As we continue to produce new methods to traditional medicinal roots, it is critical that we apply layerable patented technology to our discovery process in order to enhance the use of extracts and take advantage of increasing demand for these valuable compounds in today’s health treatments.” In addition to continuing with the development of compounds inspired by traditional ingredients but empowered by modern nanoemulsion technology to enhance bioavailability and optimize delivery to users, Mydecine also intends to use the same technology in OTC consumer products to improve usability and accessibility. Notably, the recent technology patent filing follows on the heels of a September 22 announcement that Mydecine filed its final patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) and the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) for MYCO-003, one of its lead drug candidates. MYCO-003 is a psilocybin formulation developed to offer enhanced treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (“PTSD”) and anxiety (https://ibn.fm/Uujxl). Committed to finding answers to mental health challenges, Mydecine has submitted multiple pending patents for novel innovation in first- and second-generation drugs and compounds. Through its latest technology patent filing, coupled with the September final patent application, the company is steadily strengthening its intellectual property (“IP”) portfolio as it seeks to reimagine mental health and addiction treatment with safer, more effective solutions.
