Ability to fend off diseases such as common cold, influenza and cancer by virtue of strengthening the immune system has facilitated greater utilization of beta glucan across a range of health and dietary supplements.

DUBAI, UAE / ACCESSWIRE / June 29, 2020 / Over the years, beta glucans have acquired immense popularity, attributed to a host of health benefits it offers. Research has proven that beta glucans are high effective in strengthening the immune systems, capable of combating basic infections such as influenza to more debilitating conditions such as cancer. Beta glucan-based dietary supplements have been consumed on a large scale by consumers across the world. Beta-glucan supplements are widely available online and sold in natural food stores and nutritional supplements shops.

Based on the abovementioned benefits, the global beta glucans market is set to expand positively until 2025. Due to their immunity boosting properties, beta glucan supplements consumption has registered a significant uptick during the coronavirus pandemic. Additionally, consumption of food products fortified with beta glucans such as oats has also seen a major increase. This has led to increased mainstreaming of these substances by market players.

"Market players are leveraging their product portfolios to include beta-glucan imbued anti-cholesterol supplements and diabetic drugs as they help reduce glycemic response," infers a prominent FMI analyst.

Global Beta Glucan Market- Key Takeaways

The global beta glucan market shall expand at a robust CAGR of 7.0% until 2025.
Health and dietary supplements account for the lion's share, expected to reach US$ 202.1 Mn by 2025.
Food & beverages shall be the second-most dominant segment due to increasing consumption of beta-glucan rich foods such as oats.
Western Europe is the most lucrative region, particularly in the food & beverages domain. A valuation of ~US$ 50 Mn is predicted for the Western European market.
However, Asia-Pacific is expected to emerge as the fastest growing region. Growth is attributed to an increasing percentage of the population consuming beta-glucan supplements and foods.

Global Beta Glucan Market- Prominent Drivers

Rising demand for pharmaceuticals and food & beverages due to an expanding population drives the beta glucan market. As people seek healthier food options, preference for beta-glucan fortified products are seeing an uptick.
Beta glucan products have seen rising usage due to the growing awareness about the importance of organic medicinal formulations and its benefits to the human body.
Mandatory compliance with government certifications and regulations regarding food safety and quality is driving manufacturers to adopt beta glucan as a raw ingredient.

Global Beta Glucan Market- Key Constraints

Beta-glucan products are facing a considerable degree of competition from substitutes such as guar gum due to its nearly identical properties. Consequently, market players are aggressively marketing these substitutes, hampering growth of the beta glucan products.

Anticipated Impact of the Coronavirus Outbreak

Ever since the coronavirus pandemic broke out, countries worldwide have been resorting to tough social distancing measures to contain the spread of the virus. This includes the imposition of nationwide lockdowns and curbs on domestic and international travel. Additionally, business entities have urged their employees to work from home. Furthermore, a general element of cautiousness has pervaded people across the world. This is compelling them to resort to basic hygienic precautions, including regular hand-washing and consuming immunity boosting foods. Beta glucans are fulfilling that objective, which is why its sales have multiplied since the past four months.

It has been concluded that foods rich in benign bacteria contain high concentrations of beta glucans as do edible fungi, yeast, lichens and algae. Therefore, integration into mainstream foods is acquiring momentum. A recent study published in the ScienceDirect journal points to incriminating evidence of beta-glucan extracts from shiitake mushrooms named Lentinus edodes proving effective against the oxidative stress exerted by pro-inflammatory cytokines introduced in patients by the coronavirus. Building on this premise, pharmaceutical companies are conducting extensive research on incorporating beta-glucans into their drug formulations. Thus, the market is expected to remain afloat throughout the pandemic's duration.

During the event, GM recognized 116 of its best suppliers from 15 countries that have consistently exceeded GM's expectations, created outstanding value or introduced innovations to the company. The awards ceremony was originally scheduled as a live-event to be held in March but was postponed due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Grid soil sampling continues to successfully identify, define, and expand gold exploration targets. A soil line located immediately south of the Pit Zone has returned a 390 metre interval of anomalous gold in soils ranging from 20 to 613 parts per billion (ppb) gold, averaging 121 ppb gold. This large anomaly indicates gold mineralization could be more widespread in the immediate Pit Zone area than previously recognized.

Multiple new soil lines were run across the southern part of the claim block and help define at least 4 linear northwest and northeast trending gold in soil anomalies. These anomalies are up to 450 metres long and 60 metres wide, are largely open along strike, and are interpreted to represent structurally controlled gold targets.

In May of this year the Company announced a new high-grade gold discovery in outcrop located 370 metres northwest of the Pit Zone (53.2 g/t gold over 0.6 metres previously announced in

May 11, 2020 news release). This new discovery has been termed the SouthWest (SW) Zone and was initially found by following up a gold in soil anomaly. Four additional soil lines were conducted at the SW Zone during the latest round of soil sampling and outline a 120 metre long by up to 80 metre wide gold-in-soil anomaly which is closed to the north but remains open to the south. This anomaly is spatially associated with a fine-grained granite dike and a pronounced linear magnetic low which extends at least 700 metres to the south. A single soil line located 390 metres south of the SW Zone soil anomaly crosses the linear magnetic low and contains two zones of strong gold in soil values, each 50 metres across with a 50 metre zone of modest gold in soil values in-between. These results indicate the large magnetic low is a strong gold target with good size potential, measuring about 700 metres long by 60 to 80 metres wide.

Exploration Update

A surface exploration program will commence at Gold Range within a week focusing on mapping, sampling, and trenching at select zones in order to finalize and prioritize drill targeting. CANEX has retained a geophysical contractor to conduct at least two induced polarization and resistivity test lines over the Pit Zone. Results from this test geophysical survey are expected in the middle of July. A minimum 1675 metre reverse circulation drill program is scheduled to commence at Gold Range during the third week in July.

Quality Control

The 776 soil samples reported here had gold results ranging from 2 parts per billion (ppb) to 613 ppb, averaging 20 ppb. The soil samples were taken by a contract geological services company with all samples delivered to ALS USA Inc. in Elko, Nevada (which is ISO/IEC 17025 accredited). For each sample approximately 0.5 kg of material was sampled from 10 to 25 centimeters depth along pre-determined sample grids. Eight hundred and seven samples were delivered to ALS including 776 soil samples, 16 standards and 15 duplicates. Gold was assayed using a 30g fire assay (method Au-ICP21) with an ICP-AES finish.

About the Gold Range Property

The Gold Range Property is located in Northern Arizona within an area that has seen historic lode and placer gold production but limited systematic modern lode gold exploration. Fieldwork by the Company has identified numerous gold exploration targets on the property with grab samples from outcropping quartz veins returning multiple values in the 20 to 40 g/t gold range, and chip sampling returning values of 53.2 g/t gold over 0.6 metres, 31.7 g/t gold over 1 metre, 24.3 g/t gold over 1.5 metres, 28.1 g/t gold over 1 metre, 17.2 g/t over 1.1 metre, and 8.47 g/t gold over 5.6 metres.

CLOVERDALE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 29, 2020 / Cann American Corp. (OTC PINK:CNNA) is pleased to announce the execution of a Definitive Agreement to acquire up to 30% ownership in an already licensed mobile cannabis dispensary.

Under the terms of the Agreement Cann American Corp. will jointly own the company, its assets and share in all revenue generated from the company's operations. The mobile dispensary, operating out of a secure office and warehouse facility in Sacramento California, will offer curated monthly cannabis subscription boxes as well as traditional on-demand delivery.

As previously announced on June 15, the name of the company and further details on its technology platform are briefly being withheld while the company completes USPTO applications and finishes up some of its web development. We intend to announce and direct shareholders to the company's site and introduce the other principles involved as soon as possible.

Stated CEO, Jason Black: "I'm very excited to have closed this deal for Cann Am and its shareholders. I firmly believe cannabis delivery, which currently only makes up about 3% of all California cannabis permit applications, has the potential, in the post Covid marketplace, to be the fastest growing segment of the cannabis industry. We're already seeing other states, in response to the pandemic, begin to allow delivery where they hadn't before. With our scalable franchise model under development, we believe we can capture significant market share of the mobile dispensary market."

LONDON, UK / ACCESSWIRE / June 29, 2020 / NQ Minerals Plc (AQSE:NQMI) (OTCQB:NQMLF) (OTCQB:NQMIY) ("NQ" or the "Company") announces that the Company has now signed all necessary agreements and made the necessary payments to purchase and take immediate possession of the high-grade and historic Beaconsfield Gold Mine in Tasmania, Australia.

The Beaconsfield Gold Mine has historic recorded production of c.1.8 million ounces of gold averaging c.15 grams per tonne (c.½ ounce per tonne) and was closed in 2012 due to the low gold price at that time. The gold price has since increased by over 100% and the Company plans to re-open the mine as soon as practicably possible.

NQ plans to recommission the gold processing plant, which is currently under care and maintenance, and re-open the mine by developing a new modern mine decline access into the Beaconsfield Mine from surface to reconnect into the existing mine workings at the lower section of the orebody, which comprises all of the current stated gold resources. This new decline will be capable of running large modern mining equipment and men/materials/rock from surface to anywhere in the mine underground workings and will allow for the most efficient low-cost operations possible.

NQ is currently increasing production at its flagship Hellyer Gold Mine in Tasmania, Australia. On May 7, 2020, NQ also announced a new JORC (2012) compliant Mineral Resource Estimate of the lower section of the Beaconsfield Gold Mine of 1.454 million tonnes grading 10.3 grams per tonne (g/t) for 483,000 ounces of gold. Significant additional gold potential is still to be assessed in the upper section of the old Beaconsfield Mine workings, plus the orebody remains open at depth.

The Beaconsfield Gold Mine gathered the attention of the world in 2006, when a minor earthquake triggered an underground rock fall trapping three miners.

David Lenigas, NQ's Chairman, said: "Beaconsfield is an exceptional high-grade gold asset and will provide a solid platform to bring the Company's second mine in Australia into production. The Company is now focused on bringing the Beaconsfield gold processing plant back into operational status as soon as practicable. The mine has a long and rich history in Northern Tasmania, and we understand the importance of this heritage. We are looking forward to bringing jobs and economic activity back to Beaconsfield."
