NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / August 25, 2020 / The tragic story surrounding Cicely Clary's grandparents' death was the driving force that led this strong woman to her mission in life. From that life-changing incident, she vowed to help her family and the entire community in the best way she knows. Today, she fulfills her mission through Yes Financial Solutions.

Cicely sits as the CEO of Yes Financial Solutions, a company providing financial marketing services while affiliated with top insurance companies that aim to extend customized services to individuals, families, or businesses, whether for whole life, term life, or universal life insurance policies. The onset of COVID-19 has not stopped this company from pursuing its mission. As an advanced digital business platform, the company can easily continue its professional services amid the pandemic.

Yes Financial Solutions has witnessed how the pandemic has made it extremely difficult for businesses to reach their target markets. Indeed, there is a need for businesses to embrace this new paradigm shift, and they can do this by serving the market virtually. Servant leaders cannot afford to be behind the curve when upgrading their digital services to accommodate the virtual market.

For Cicely, her company is embracing business growth while maximizing virtual marketing tools in the process. To scale their business, the team uses virtual platforms such as constant contact through email, social media sites like Youtube, Google Ads, and webinars.

In an effort to extend help to others during this pandemic, Yes Financial Solutions took the initiative to hold free virtual financial workshops and webinars discussing growth platforms called Virtual Platform Builders for free. Through Yes Financial Solutions' free service, business owners can become pandemic-proof and consistent growth can be achieved despite the shift in the marketing approaches brought about by COVID-19. At present, these endeavors have helped thousands of families protect their assets from the crisis that the world faces today.

Cicely and her team also guide clients in landing the right insurance plans. By looking into different important factors such as age, medical needs, future goals, and many more, the company strives to give the clients a simple yet productive experience from start to finish.

The story of what led Cicely to Yes Financial Solutions has its roots in a freak accident that changed Cicely's life years ago. On July 22, 2017, the Yes Financial Solutions CEO was happily celebrating her son's baby shower with family and close friends. The day went on so well until she received a frantic phone call from a relative bringing her the news that her grandparents' house was on fire. Hearing this rendered Cicely speechless and paralyzed in shock. Later on, she learned the more devastating news that both her grandparents did not survive the fire caused by a wiring malfunction.

Although her grandparents were insured, they only had "term life" insurance plans, which ended at 65. Unfortunately, both of them were already 66 years old. Fortunately, the community offered funding to help in the burial arrangements. The whole situation made Cicely realize that her family members have not been guided well in making decisions on how to protect their assets and their life in general. Since that moment, she vowed to make a difference for her family and the community.

Today, she advances her mission through Yes Financial Solutions. The pandemic-proof company is providing virtual services and products in rural and residential areas. The company is passionate about educating the community and providing it with valuable products and services, especially at these trying times.

When people ask her why she cares, Cicely sticks to one answer in her mind. She expresses, "No one knows when a disaster scenario will occur, and from my experience, it's best to plan for it." Indeed, Cicely knows how devastating it feels to suffer disastrous accidents, loss of assets, or worse, loss of life, coupled with financial problems. For her, an effective way to achieve peace of mind in knowing that one is protected in some way. She strives to help others understand this.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / August 25, 2020 / Mental health is a crucial talking point, especially to those that are struggling with their own health and are falling deep into mental illness. The best saving grace that these individuals could ever have is the support of other people. Peer specialist and mental health advocate, Erin Duffy knows this for a fact after having multiple experiences with handling the matter. Along with her partner Lori Sevigny, who is a retired registered nurse and someone who has also had personal experiences with psychiatric abuse, both women have created an empowering community called Our Stories Our Space.

The community sheds light on mental health and invites people to share their own stories without any judgment or retaliation. They want people to open up more regarding their mental health so that they can be supported by others who are in the same situation. Erin and Lori understand that the battle is tough when it comes to dealing with mental health struggles, but they want everyone to know that they're not alone in the fight, and they have others who are willing to support them.

It all started with a Facebook group that Erin created. She wanted to make a space on the internet where people could discuss mental health. As time went by, the group eventually blossomed into a website, a Twitter account, and their very own Facebook page. One day, Erin and Lori hope to tell the stories of their followers in a book that will inspire others to share their own stories.

In a little over a month, Our Stories Our Space has garnered a little over 100 followers, and the number is growing day by day. It's all thanks to the immense passion that Erin and Lori have for their mental health advocacy. They truly want to help other people, and they want what they've created to bloom into something great in the near future. Indeed, it's well on its way with both women at the helm.

They have a knack for connecting with people, which is very important when it comes to interacting with people that are struggling. They can bring out different individuals' experiences regarding mental health, whether through private messages or by publicly sharing the information. This helps the members of their community to unload all the burden that they are carrying, and it allows others to support them on their healing journey.

Taking from their own experiences, Erin and Lori interact with other individuals and understand where they're coming from. They want to encourage the members of their community to carry on with their mental health journey toward healing.

The beauty of Our Stories Our Space is that they are entirely open for anyone to join the community. There is no discrimination whatsoever. Anyone who is going through something is given an avenue to share their pain and sadness so that others may be able to listen and help them heal.

Erin and Lori have created something truly incredible. Harnessing the beauty of the human spirit through collaboration, they have proved that everyone is willing to help one another in times of hardship. Our Stories Our Space is a beautiful community of wonderful people, and it's only getting bigger, expanding the spaces for which mental health will no longer be taboo, fostering love and acceptance all throughout the world.

Namibia Critical Metals has entered into an agreement for a draw-down equity financing facility with Alumina Partners (Ontario) Ltd. to provide the Company with up to CD$5,000,000 over a 24-month period

Draw-downs are at the Company's discretion in increments of up to CD$250,000

The Company has completed a first draw-down of $100,000 which will be directed towards acceleration of the Company's gold exploration programs and provides for the immediate analysis of 5,000 soil samples that have already been collected

HALIFAX, NS / ACCESSWIRE / August 24, 2020 / Namibia Critical Metals Inc. ("Namibia Critical Metals" or the "Company") (TSXV:NMI) today announced that it has entered into a draw-down equity financing facility ("Investment Agreement or Alumina facility") with Alumina Partners (Ontario) Ltd. ("Alumina"), an affiliate of New York-based private equity firm Alumina Partners, LLC., that is structured to provide Namibia Critical Metals with timely access to private placement financing as and when required. Under the terms of the Investment Agreement, the Company has the right to draw down on the CD$5,000,000 facility, at its sole discretion, through equity private placement tranches of up to CD$250,000 each. Each tranche will be a placement of units (each a "Unit"), with each Unit comprising one common share (a "Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant referred to as a "Warrant"). The Units will be priced at a discount of 15% to 25% from the then most recent closing price of the Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange at the time of the applicable Company draw-down notice to Alumina. The Warrants will be issued at a 40% premium over the market price of the Shares and will have a term of 24 months. There are no standby charges or other upfront fees associated with the Investment Agreement or any penalties for not drawing the full facility. Each tranche of Units issued under the Investment Agreement will be subject to the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange, and the securities issued will be subject to the customary 4-month hold period.

A first tranche draw-down of $100,000 was completed concurrent with the execution of the Investment Agreement. The Company issued 555,555 units ("Units") at a price of $0.18 per unit for gross proceeds of $100,000. Each Warrant in this tranche is exercisable into one additional common share at a price of $0.336.

The proceeds from the first draw-down will be used to accelerate gold exploration over the 1,638 square kilometer Grootfontein project area. A total of 5,000 samples over many of the principal target areas have already been collected and will now be submitted for gold analyses.

Don Burton, President of Namibia Critical Metals stated "The Alumina facility will provide the Company with the flexibility to accelerate high priority exploration programs outside of the Lofdal Heavy Rare Earth joint venture which is already fully funded by our joint venture partner, Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation (JOGMEC). Exploration of our 2,000 square kilometer land package in the emerging Navachab-Otjikoto gold belt of central Namibia can now be accelerated with the objective of identifying gold targets using systematic soil geochemical surveys, in a manner similar to what has been utilized by Osino Resources. This approach led to the discovery of Twin Hills and other important gold anomalies. Management is no stranger to large scale gold exploration, having previously conducted similar programs with Etruscan Resources throughout West Africa from 1996-2010 which led to the development of the Samira Hill, Tabakaroni, Youga and Agbaou gold mines."

"Alumina is thrilled to support Namibia Critical Metals as they prepare to dramatically ramp up exploration," said Adi Nahmani, Managing Member of Alumina Partners. "The two areas of resource focus that present the greatest value proposition right now are rare earth elements and counter-inflationary precious metals… And investing in Namibia now will allow us to get exposure to both. We look forward very much to seeing this veteran management team execute against plan and hit key milestones even sooner than previously expected."

The Company's Gold Portfolio

The immediate priority for the Company outside of the Lofdal Heavy Rare Earth joint venture with JOGMEC, is to accelerate exploration programs over its gold project portfolio in central Namibia. The portfolio comprises three project areas covering a total of 2,002 km2 (Figure 1). All project areas have the potential for the discovery of orogenic gold deposits similar to known occurrences within the Navachab-Otjikoto gold belt which is being explored by Osino Resources Corp ("Osino"), B2 Gold, Antler Gold and others. The Erongo project (295 km2) is located 20 kilometers north of the Navachab Gold Mine operated by QKR and 10 kilometers northwest of the Twin Hills discovery of Osino. The Otjiwarongo project (69 km2) is located 70 kilometers southwest of B2 Gold's Otjikoto Gold Mine and Grootfontein (1,638 km2) is situated 85 kilometers to the northeast of Otjikoto and is contiguous with ground held by B2 Gold.

The Company has already initiated regional geochemical soil surveys on all three areas and collected over 10,000 samples. An initial batch of 2,500 samples collected over Erongo has been re-submitted for check analyses. An evaluation of available airborne magnetic and radiometric geophysical survey data from the Geological Survey of Namibia was undertaken by Earthmaps Consulting to provide structural and lithological interpretations of the Erongo and Grootfontein areas. The study has identified a number of gold targets and has confirmed the position and extent of favourable structures that vary in strike length from 14 to 53 km across the project areas. Similar structural context is linked to the Navachab, Otjikoto and Osino gold occurrences. The study has also confirmed targets for base metals of the Berg Aukas type and within the Grootfontein mafic complex for magmatic copper, nickel, cobalt and PGM targets.

The Company will utilize this tranche of $100,000 to analyse the first 5,000 samples over favourable target areas at Grootfontein covering over 30 kilometers of strike length proximal to first order structures. Samples will be submitted for ultra low detection limits on gold. The initial objective is to identify large-scale gold anomalies that can indicate proximity to mineralized systems based on a sampling density of 400 meters x 100 meters. Once these areas are identified, more closely spaced soil sampling can confirm the extent of the anomaly and priorities can be made for drill targets.

Donald M. Burton, P.Geo. and President of Namibia Critical Metals Inc., is the Company's Qualified Person and has reviewed and approved this press release.

About Namibia Critical Metals Inc.

Namibia Critical Metals Inc. holds a diversified portfolio of exploration and advanced stage projects in the country of Namibia focused on the development of sustainable and ethical sources of metals for the battery, electric vehicle and associated industries. The Company also has significant land positions in areas favourable for gold mineralization.

The Lofdal Heavy Rare Earth Project is the Company's most advanced project having completed a Preliminary Economic Assessment in 2014 and full Environmental Impact Assessment in 2017. An application has been made for a mining licence at Lofdal. The project is now in joint venture with Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation ("JOGMEC") who are funding the current $3,000,000 drilling and metallurgical program with the objective of doubling the resource size and optimization of the process flow sheet.

At the Erongo Gold Project, stratigraphic equivalents to the sediments hosting the recent Osino gold discovery at Twin Hills have been identified but not yet sampled. Detailed soil surveys are planned over this highly prospective area.

The Grootfontein Project has potential for magmatic Cu-Ni mineralization, Mississippi Valley-type Zn-Pb-V mineralization and Otjikoto-style gold mineralization. Detailed soil surveys are planned over this highly prospective area.

The Epembe Tantalum-Niobium Project is also at an advanced stage with a well-defined, 10 km long carbonatite dyke that has been delineated by detailed mapping with over 11,000 meters of drilling. Preliminary mineralogical and metallurgical studies including sorting tests (XRT), indicate the potential for significant physical upgrading. Further work will be undertaken to advance the project to a preliminary economic assessment stage.

The Kunene Cobalt-Copper Project comprises a very large area of favorable stratigraphy ("the DOF") along strike to the west of the Opuwo Co-Cu-Zn deposit. Secondary copper mineralization over a wide area points to preliminary evidence of a regional-scale hydrothermal system. Exploration targets on EPLs held in the Kunene project comprise direct extensions of the DOF style mineralization to the west, sediment-hosted cobalt and copper and stratabound Mn and Zn-Pb mineralization.

The common shares of Namibia Critical Metals Inc. trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "NMI".

Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
