Revolutionary Hemp Papers Available in Over 35 Stores in New York City and South Florida; CBD Oil and Hemp Fiber Products Will be Next

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / March 30, 2015 / HempAmericana, Inc. (PINKSHEETS:HMPQ), a researcher, developer and marketer of industrial hemp products, is pleased to announce the availability of its Rolling Thunders Hemp Rolling Paper. The revolutionary hemp papers are available in over 35 stores in New York City and South Florida. For a complete list of availability at retailers, please check out: http://www.hempamericana.com.

Rolling Thunders is half the thickness of competing rolling paper brands, with a fraction of the amount of ash. It is the cleanest burning rolling paper of all the competing paper or hemp brands. The 100% hemp paper is made without any additives to make it stiff nor to keep it burning. For a video demonstration against competitive brands Bambu and Zig Zag, please check out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKkKxNVol0Y.

The Company has further progressed its development of CBD Oil and Hemp Fiber, to the point that these will be its net available products. Cannabidiol or CBD is the other main ingredient in the marijuana plant, besides THC. CBD is non-psychoactive because it does not act on the same pathways as THC and CBD does not cause a high. Therefore, CBD has a wide range of medical benefits. Medical effects of CBD include: reduces nausea and vomiting, suppresses seizure activity, combats psychosis disorders, combats inflammatory disorders, combats neurodegenerative disorders, combats tumor and cancer cells and combats anxiety and depression disorders. HempAmericana expects to make further announcements on its CBD Oil in the near future.

Hemp fiber is one of the most valuable parts of the marijuana plant. It is commonly called bast, which refers to the fibers which grow on the outside of the plant’s stalk. Bast fibers give the plants strength. In Europe and China, hemp fibers have been used in prototype quantities to strengthen concrete, and in other composite materials for many construction and manufacturing applications. A mixture of fiberglass, hemp fiber, kenaf, and flax has been used to make composite panels for automobiles. The first identified coarse paper, made from hemp, dates to the early Western Han Dynasty. HempAmericana expects to make further announcements on its Hemp Fiber in the near future.

HempAmericana plans to make a wide variety of products out of hemp and hemp-based materials along with supplementary goods. This includes, but is not limited to, hempcrete (hemp-based concrete), hemp bags, hemp seeds for consumption, hemp clothing and hemp rolling paper. HempAmericana plans to fill the growing need and demand for hemp-based products within the United States through aggressive marketing and by ensuring that a number of major retailers stock products created by HempAmericana. The company plans to follow all Federal regulations and statutes pertinent to the sale of hemp-based goods.

About HempAmericana, Inc.

HempAmericana, Inc. is an early stage company in the research, development and marketing of industrial hemp products. In essence anything that can be made with plastic can be made with industrial hemp and HempAmericana plans to fill the growing need and demand for hemp based products within the United States.

PHOENIX, AZ / ACCESSWIRE / March 30, 2015 / GoldStar Northamerican Mining, Inc. (PINKSHEETS:GDSR), an emerging, surface gold mining company with land holdings in Arizona on which it anticipates commencing gold production during the Second Quarter of 2015, today announced it has licensed the proprietary Fine Gold Extraction Machine (“F-GEM”) technology from Alberta, Canada-based Black Sand Technology. F-GEM has previously been used with great success in the Yukon of Canada in the Klondike Gold Rush area near Dawson City to recover fine gold from previously dredged placer deposits. The equipment has been shipped to Phoenix and is awaiting deployment.

F-GEM is designed to recover gold from placer, desert alluvial, and fine-gold/black sands metallic deposits. It is proprietary, “clean & green,” in that it does not use any chemicals, and at production scale has shown to recover up to 90 percent of the contained gold. GoldStar has exclusively licensed this technology and plans to deploy it on its initial mining project outside Quartzsite, Arizona to process and recover the gold-bearing deposits it mines.

F-GEM’s fine gold extraction methodology allows the recovery of very fine gold particles from alluvial placer material whether in placer deposits, or mill tailings. The basis for this system is a revolutionary magnet technology that uses Rare Earth Element permanent magnets to affect precious metals. The magnets are incorporated throughout the Recovery System and allow the capture of fine gold that is typically lost in the conventional gravity-separation process or lost in mill tailings.

The power of the magnets in the Magnetic Recovery Unit causes the magnetic material to be pulled in one direction and separated from the non-magnetics such as gold. This process is effective at separating precious metals from black sand/magnetite, which is considered one of the most difficult splits in the industry. The F-GEM gold processing equipment uses minimal water, and power can be provided by conventional diesel generators. A thorough explanation of the science behind this technology, the land package, management team and more can be found in the F-GEM Technology section of our web site: http://goldstarmining.com/f-gem-technology.html.

GoldStar is the only mining company to whom Black Sand has currently licensed this technology. GoldStar’s exclusivity period runs for 24 months from the signing of the agreement. Black Sand agreed to provide a technical development team which will assist GoldStar in adjusting the F-GEM to optimize gold recovery on its Plomosa Mining District surface gold mining operation. Terms include a net smelter royalty and staged cash payments along with other customary conditions.

Commenting on the F-GEM license, GoldStar CEO Craig Parkinson, said, “The F-GEM is designed to revolutionize the recovery of fine gold from placer and other surface deposits. By increasing the percentage of gold recovered, against an otherwise relatively fixed cost operation, we will be able to keep our cost per ounce of gold extraction low. This will enable GoldStar to be solidly profitable on an operating basis even during periods of depressed gold prices. We are excited to roll out our first F-GEM on our Plomosa property and to begin producing gold. We are very encouraged with the early success of this green technology as it relates to fine gold extraction. Currently, we are in final negotiations to acquire the F-GEM technology for the purposes of a full global rollout as there could potentially be thousands of locations around the globe where F-GEM could be deployed.”

About GoldStar Northamerican Mining, Inc.

Phoenix, Arizona-based GoldStar Northamerican Mining, Inc. (www.GoldStarMining.com) is an emerging, junior gold mining company with proposed operations on prime surface, placer gold-bearing properties in the historically prolific Plomosa Mining District of southwest Arizona.
