VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / June 13, 2022 / CMC Metals Ltd. (TSX-V:CMB)(Frankfurt:ZM5P)(OTC PINK:CMCXF) ("CMC" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that preliminary exploration efforts at its Rodney Pond, Central Newfoundland have identified a large area of exploration interest and as a result it is deemed a property of merit. The nature of mineralization and alteration on the property is considered to be indicative of a porphyritic style setting.
The mineralization in Rodney Pond comprises of several parallel quartz veins (see Plates 1 and 2) emplaced in a compact gneiss that strike in a northwesterly direction and occurs within an alteration area with dimensions of 2.5 kilometers by 1.2 kilometers in size that remains open in all directions. Rodney Pond is located within the Gander Zone in Central Newfoundland, an area of which is subject to several major exploration programs including Newfound Gold's Queensway Gold Project.

Plate 2: Prospector Larry Rogers at the Mineralized Showing
Preliminary mapping and prospecting of the northwestern portion of the property has identified that the mineralizing system is possibly porphyritic in nature (see Plate 3).

Structural controls indicate northeast oriented structures which are thought to provide opportunity for the emplacement of an intrusive body and related mineralization. A recent ground magnetic survey completed over the entire property by the Company further infers that the mineralization could be associated with a possible fault system and/or associated with an intrusive. The Rodney Pond Prospect is located on a high and low magnetic contrast envelope that is comparable to the setting of the highly prospective "GRUB line" (see Map 1).

Previous prospecting efforts at Rodney Pond within the defined area of exploration interest have provided assays of up to 322 ppb gold, 27.2 g/t silver, 7% copper, and 1,065 g/t zinc. Chromite is also found in various amounts (see Map 2).

Kevin Brewer, P.Geo President and CEO noted "These initial prospecting efforts at Rodney Pond by our geological team are very encouraging. When we acquired this property it was evident that this property had potential to host a significant polymetallic deposit and the nature and extent of mineralization at surface is demonstrative that Rodney Pond is a property of merit and deserves detailed exploration."
Further exploration is recommended which may include, but may not be limited to, a drone survey to identify areas of outcrop, further prospecting and geological mapping, and an induced polarization geophysical survey. The property is road accessible. For further information on the property please refer to the Company website at www.cmcmetals.ca.

Rogers knows a thing or two about making money in turbulent times.
The purchases were made over the past week and cost about $529 million, Berkshire said in a regulatory filing on Wednesday. Following the purchases, Berkshire now owns about 152.7 million Occidental shares worth about $8.52 billion based on Occidental stock's Wednesday close, which is down over 21% since it touched its year's high in May. However, Occidental's share prices are currently up over 90% this year, after more than doubling, as they benefited from Berkshire's purchases and rising oil prices following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

The clouds are gathering on the global economic horizon. In a clear sign that the good times of easy money are well and truly over, last week three major central banks – the US Federal Reserve, the Bank of England, and the Swiss National Bank – all enacted interest rate increases. For the Federal Reserve, it was a 0.75% hike, the largest bump since 1994, in reaction to news that the year-over-year inflation rate had reached a 40+ year high of 8.6%. So, how can investors ride out this hostile env
With gasoline prices through the roof at record highs, inflation running at 40-year record levels, and last year’s bullish stock market turn down into a genuine bear, it’s no wonder that the financial and economic worlds are looking like reruns of ‘That 70s Show.’ Market watchers remember that the bad times of the late 70s and early 80s were tamed only when Fed Chair Paul Volker sparked a recession with near-20% interest rates – and for investors under 45, just take note that Q1 this year saw a

It’s hard to put a positive spin on a stock that’s shaved 65% off its value since the beginning of the year – a feat achieved by SoFi Technologies (SOFI). The thing is, such a performance is not an anomaly in 2022. Many stocks are in the same predicament, which raises the question whether the scores of beaten-down names will eventually stage a comeback. Some will and some won’t. After meeting up with SoFi CEO Anthony Noto and CFO Chris Lapointe, Mizuho analyst Dan Dolev thinks SoFi is well-posit
“Share outperformance.” Now there’s a vintage term which on account of the stock market’s woeful action in 2022 might be somewhat forgotten. However, that appears to be the case for NIO (NIO) in recent times. This month, all the main indexes have continued to put in an abject display, but shares of the Chinese EV maker have defied the market and are up ~30%. Morgan Stanley analyst Tim Hsiao attributes the strong showing to a few key drivers. First off, Q1’s 18% gross margin might have amounted t

Three news items that say a lot about the retirement crisis facing Americans and what we can do about it—if we want to. The first is a survey of 1,000 working Americans conducted recently showing much, or little, they have saved for retirement.
