VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 20, 2020 / Progressive Planet Solutions Inc. (TSXV:PLAN) ("PLAN" or "Progressive Planet"), an emerging leader in the commercialization of natural pozzolans to reduce the carbon footprint of cement production, is pleased to announce that it has signed a second Collaborative Research Agreement with the University of Alberta in order to complete final testing on PLAN's Natural Pozzolan Blend which we intend to produce to compete with fly ash as a substantially greener supplementary cementing material.

Throughout the world, fly ash is generated as a by-product of burning coal for electricity generation. Fly ash is used as a supplementary cementing material in blended cement mixes. The supply of fly ash is directly related to the amount of coal which is combusted in power plants which in many parts of Canada, and the world, are scheduled for decommissioning or are already being decommissioned.

In December 2019, PLAN announced its first Collaborative Research Agreement with the University of Alberta to conduct work with respect to improving the rheology (slump) of the Natural Pozzolan from its Z-1 Quarry so that it possessed similar rheology to commercially available fly ash. Final rheology results of the Z-1/pulverized glass blend were superior to the rheology of the fly ash blend.

Before launching our Natural Pozzolan Blend commercially, we need to assure ready mix and pre-cast concrete businesses that concrete which contains this Natural Pozzolan Blend can withstand the conditions which concrete must withstand in Canada. This second Collaborative Research Agreement covers five tests including the following:

Compressive strength (CSA A3004-E1),
Alkali-silica reaction (CSA A23.3-28A),
Sulphate resistance (CSA A3004-C8),
Air void (ASTM C462), and,
Freeze thaw resistance (ASTM C666, as referenced in CSA A3004-E1).

"We were very pleased with the results achieved by Dr. Vivek Bindiganavile and his team of concrete experts on the first Collaborative Research Agreement. If we achieve successful results from these additional tests, we will have completed all the testing required to give the ready mix and pre-cast concrete industries confidence to use our Natural Pozzolan Blend. With a fully functional comminution plant in place to pulverize Natural Pozzolan from the Z-1 Quarry and to pulverize post-consumer glass, we intend to introduce this product during the 2021 construction season," stated Steve Harpur, CEO.

ABOUT PROGRESSIVE PLANET

Progressive Planet is an emerging leader in supplying solutions for a livable planet by developing low carbon, pozzolan-based, cementing products which replace equivalent amounts of Portland Cement and fly ash in concrete. The production of Portland Cement is the second largest global generator of CO2 emissions.

Progressive Planet operates its flagship Z1 Zeolite Quarry in British Columbia and is earning an 100% interest in the Z2 Natural Pozzolan Property near Falkland, BC and earning a 100% interest in the Heffley Creek Metals and Natural Pozzolan Property. All three properties are within a one- hour drive of Kamloops, BC, an industrial hub with rail access to Canadian and US markets.

An additional 3 mineral licences (13 claims, 325 hectares) were acquired via an option agreement with a local prospector ("Vendor"), covering the along strike extension of the Rattling Brook Deposit. Under terms of the agreement the Company can earn a 100% interest in the option by paying to the Vendor a total of $30,000 and issuing $15,000 in MTT shares (subject to TSX-V and regulatory approval) or pay $15,000 in cash over a 2-year period. The Property is subject to a 2% Net Smelter Return Royalty ("NSR") payable to the Vendor with 1% NSR purchasable by MTT for $1,000,000 and right of first refusal on the remaining 1% NSR.

At the Viking Project 1 mineral licence (68 claims, 1,700 hectares) was acquired via map staking and covers an area of strongly deformed and altered Silurian volcanic and sedimentary rocks that are host to a 1.4 kilometre long geochemical anomaly (soil assays up to 530 ppb gold, and rock assays up to 22.15 g/t gold) from historic sampling at the Little Davis Pond Trend.

Exploration Program

The Company has started a systematic exploration program focussed on the Great Northern Project that will comprise collection of 1,600 B-horizon soil samples, systematic prospecting and geological mapping, ground Induced Polarization ("IP") and magnetic geophysical and airborne magnetic and electromagnetic surveys. The initial exploration program will be followed up with trenching and diamond drilling of priority targets in late 2020. The current program will initially focus on the Jacksons Arm Trend targeting the extension of a 1.7 km long by 40 to 400 m wide continuous alteration zone.

The Company has critically considered logistical matters given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, to ensure that this Exploration Program and all future programs are executed in a way that ensures the absolute health and safety of our personnel, contractors, and the communities where we operate.

The Company would like to thank the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador for partial funding of the exploration program under the Junior Exploration Assistance Program.

About the Great Northern and Viking Projects

The Great Northern and Viking Projects comprise 2 separate claim blocks (12,675 hectares) that are located near the communities of Sops Arm, Pollard's Point and Jackson's Arm, NL.

The Projects are centered along the Doucer's Valley Fault, a significant geological control on, and host to, several gold deposits and untested prospects, including the Rattling Brook and the Thor Deposits, Jacksons Arm, Little Davis Pond, and Viking Trends and the Incinerator Trail Zone. Gold mineralization is hosted within a variety of rocks types that include Precambrian or Ordovician granites, or younger volcanic and sedimentary rocks, typically along splays off the Doucer's Valley Fault. Alteration consists of mesothermal style quartz ± iron carbonate ± sulfide veins and stockworks with 2 to 5% total sulfides consisting of pyrite, galena, chalcopyrite or sphalerite, and locally show trace amounts of visible gold.

The Jacksons Arm Trend is host to a 1.7 km long by 40 to 400 m wide continuous alteration zone, that is controlled by a north-south striking fault. The fault extends immediately to the north along strike with similar repeating fault zones to the east outlining a potential strike extent of an additional 4 kilometres.

Highlights of previous surface grab samples** include:

Assays up to 20.2 g/t gold and 1,232 g/t silver at the Boot N' Hammer Prospect;

Assays up to 56.7 g/t gold and 2.75 ounce per tonne silver at the Stocker Prospect;

Assays up to 7.2 g/t gold at the Shrik Prospect; and

Assays up to 13.6 g/t gold at the 954 Prospect.

**Grab samples are selected samples and are not necessarily indicative of mineralization that may be hosted on the property.

The Little Davis Pond Trend is underlain by strongly deformed and altered Silurian volcanic and sedimentary rocks that are host to a 1.4 kilometre long geochemical anomaly (soil assays up to 530 ppb gold, and rock assays up to 22.15 g/t gold) from historic sampling.

The Incinerator Trail Zone has been tested by four reconnaissance-style diamond drill holes in the 1980's and returned assays of 1.78 g/t gold over 4.0 m (hole RB-35) and 2.30 g/t gold over 4.05 m (hole RB-41).

The Viking Trend is host to a 3+ kilometre long by up to 40 metre wide deformation and alteration zone with gold grades of 0.45 g/t Au over 20.0 m in hole VK-16-151, 0.37 g/t Au over 16.5 m in hole VK-11-125, as well as local high grades as indicated by 7.43 g/t Au over 1.0 m in hole VK-16-155.

A2Z Smart Technologies Meets with Top Israeli Government Officials About Making its FTICS Technology Mandatory in All Motor Vehicles In Israel

YAVNE, ISRAEL / ACCESSWIRE / August 20, 2020 / A2Z Smart Technologies, Inc. (TSXV:AZ) (OTCQB:AAZZF) (FSE:A23) ("A2Z" or the "Company"), an innovative technology company specializing in state-of-the-art automation and electronics technology, is pleased to announce that its management team met with a senior government official, Mr. Yitzchak Pindros, in Jerusalem, Israel. Mr. Pindros is a member of the Israeli parliament. The meeting was part of A2Z's efforts for its FTICS technology to become mandatory in every new motor vehicle sold in Israel.

FTICS is a unique cutting-edge lifesaving technology that is located within the fuel tank of a car. Upon collision, FTICS releases a proprietary substance into the gas tank, solidifying the fuel and eliminating the possibility of combustion and thereby preventing fires. The fuel tank is also lined with a special coating to ensure the fuel does not leak. This eliminates vehicle fires, saving lives and preventing serious harm to passengers, as well as saving billions in property damage.

To see how it works press here:

https://vimeo.com/user105821568/download/385092549/2b6aef48d4

After the meeting, Mr. Pindros went on record, stating that "Following the successful completion of the company's pilot program, we will promote a bill mandating the installation of A2Z's FTICS technology in every new car sold in Israel. The protection, safety and saving of human lives is our priority."

Also present at the meeting was Mr. Israel Morgenstern, Chairman of ZAKA, a leading Israeli search and rescue organization, which is also responsible in recovering the bodies from accidents. Mr. Morgenstern, stated, "Our courageous employees work day and night and encounter the devastation and carnage from fatal car accidents in Israel. ZAKA will fully support the initiative to pass legislation that will make this FTICS technology mandatory for every new car sold nationwide as this will save countless lives."

A2Z's Chief Executive Officer, Joseph Bentsur, commented, "We had a very constructive and productive meeting and I would like to personally thank Mr. Pindros for taking the lead initiative in introducing legislation that will save countless lives. In Israel alone, eight cars per day catch on fire."

According to FEMA(*) data between 2014-2016, eighty-three percent of highway vehicle fires occurred in passenger vehicles. In addition, insulation around electrical wiring and flammable liquids in the engine area were the most common items first ignited in highway vehicle fires.

According to Automotive Industry Portal MarkLines(**), 253,938 new light vehicles were sold in Israel in 2019. If such legislation is passed it could translate up to a $127 million dollar annual income for the Company.

Stock Option Grants

The Company also wishes to announce the granting of 600,000 options to directors and officers and 1,240,000 options to consultants, pursuant to the Company's stock option plan (total of 1,840,000). 792,000 options vest immediately, and the balance vest over the following 24 months. All the options are exercisable into an equal amount of shares of the Company at an exercise price of CAD $0.50 per Share and expire 5 years from the Initial Date.

CounterPath Bria and Stretto™ Platform selected to build iConnect LITE, a BYOD and mobility solution for hotel guests in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 20, 2020 /  CounterPath Corporation (NASDAQ:CPAH)(TSX:PATH), a global provider of award-winning Unified Communications and Collaboration (UCC) solutions for enterprises and service providers, today announced it has partnered with TigerTMS, a leading provider of middleware and applications for the hospitality industry, to develop a custom-branded Bria® and Stretto™ Platform solution, iConnect LITE. The iConnect LITE app enables hotel guests to use their smartphone or tablet as their room phone while checked into the hotel using a Wi-Fi or cellular data connection to make and receive calls.

Since the onset of COVID-19, hotel room phones have come under scrutiny as potential vectors for virus transmission. For this reason, hoteliers have been investigating ways to reduce contact with or entirely replace room phones. Using secure login credentials provided at check-in, the iConnect LITE app enables guests to make internal and external calls using their own devices, improving efficiency in communications and effectively replacing the handset in rooms. When a guest checks out, the iConnect Lite app deregisters and no longer provides login access on their device. Providing iOS and Android support, and hotel-specific branding, iConnect LITE is a viable option for all types of hotels.

"Due to the worldwide spread of COVID-19, we've been focusing on making our hospitality applications safer and better suited to the new normal," said John Owen, CEO of TigerTMS. "iConnect LITE is the perfect UC mobility solution. It minimizes the unnecessary contact guests might have with surfaces such as room phones, effectively reducing the potential for COVID-19 transmission."

TigerTMS is a longstanding partner of CounterPath. The opportunity to partner on a solution for the hospitality vertical that leveraged the benefits of Unified Communications while addressing the challenges brought on by COVID-19 was one both organizations jumped on. The CounterPath Stretto Platform and Stretto API simplified workflows and made it possible to adapt to the hospitality industry flawlessly.

"Working with TigerTMS on an application for the hospitality vertical is aligned with our strategy to reach new markets," said Todd Carothers, CRO at CounterPath. "In a post-COVID world, we see mobility solutions like iConnect LITE becoming commonplace, and CounterPath is positioned to leverage our experience in hospitality and similar markets. We look forward to working closely with TigerTMS as they expand their reach to their customer base."

Currently deployed in Spain, TigerTMS plans to expand distribution of iConnect LITE to other European countries over the next year. TigerTMS also plans to expand deployments of the solution to adjacent industries, such as cruise lines and healthcare.

Embracing Industrials Foundation, Company Makes Significant Progress and Executes a Clear Plan Exiting Initial COVID-19 Season

CLEVELAND, OH / ACCESSWIRE / August 20, 2020 / Innovest Global Inc. (OTC PINK:IVST), a diversified industrials company, today announced the Board of Directors has appointed Damon Mintz as Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Mintz joined Innovest in January 2018 when the company he owned was acquired by Innovest. He was subsequently nominated president of Innovest's Industrials Division where he grew that business unit from upstart to eight figures in sales; then in January 2019 was nominated president of Innovest Global Inc., leading the integration and growth of all acquired entities into the focused, efficient operating unit that exists today.

"Damon has an extensive track record of creating people-first cultures that result in scalable best practices, engaged teams, and significant sales growth, which will catalyze Innovest's progression through our growth phase," said Dan Martin, Innovest's founder and Chairman of the Board of Directors. "Just over three years ago, Innovest was pre-revenue, with no employees and a vision to be a major public company. During his tenure with Innovest, Damon has successfully made that vision a reality behind the scenes, executing on the mission and growing the company substantially. With corporate initiatives being finalized, our new penny stock exemption, and a focused plan to be a pure-play industrials company, Damon is the perfect leader to capitalize on the opportunities Innovest has to grow and communicate these achievements to the market.

Concurrent with the announcement and the spinout of the Company's biotech initiative to XsunX, Inc., the Board of Directors appointed former Innovest Chief Financial Officer Mike Yukich as interim Chief Financial Officer, succeeding Indrani Egleston.

"On behalf of our board and management team, I would like to thank Indrani for her valued service and contributions over the past year – we wish her the best in future endeavors," said Damon Mintz, Chief Executive Officer. "We welcome Mike Yukich back to the position and are very pleased to have someone of his caliber and financial skill set serve as our interim CFO. We believe his deep experience working with emerging growth companies, especially his prior experience with Innovest, will be instrumental to efficiently achieving our goals and remaining true to our established culture as we grow.

"With my expanded leadership role, Innovest remains committed to the adaptability and risk mitigation that diversification provides. We will expand the positioning of our higher-margin businesses in Energy and Health & Safety Solutions as key revenue growth drivers in the near-term. We believe these vertical will be increasingly important over the next year due to increasingly robust demand for PPE products and healthcare-related call-center services and the continued emphasis of energy efficiency for businesses.

"I am truly privileged to be taking the position of Chief Executive Officer at such an important inflection point for our Company. I look forward to leading us through new growth initiatives, and creating sustainable value for our shareholders over the long-term," concluded Mintz.
