Great Atlantic Acquires Nashwaak Lake Tungsten Property, Located Three Kilometers Northwest of Sisson Project Western New Brunswick

Globe and Mail19-02-2025
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 19, 2025) - GREAT ATLANTIC RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV: GR) (the "Company" or "Great Atlantic") is pleased to announce it has acquired 100% interest (through a purchase agreement) in the Nashwaak Lake Tungsten Property, located in western New Brunswick. The property is located approximately three kilometers northwest of the Sisson Project (tungsten and molybdenum project) of Northcliff Resources Ltd.
Tungsten mineralization is reported at the Nashwaak Lake Property including reported 0.443% tungsten (0.558% WO3) over 0.96 meters core length in a 2009 diamond drill hole and 2.03% tungsten (2.55% WO3) for a 2022 rock sample.

The Nashwaak Lake Property consists of one mineral claim covering an area of approximately 222 hectares. Great Atlantic's management have compiled historical exploration information for the area of the property from Reports of Work on file with the New Brunswick Department of Natural Resources and Energy Development. These reports document soil and prospecting rock / drill core samples anomalous for tungsten within the area of the Nashwaak Lake Property. Reported highlights include:
Three 2009 rock samples (from glacial float) collected by Geodex Minerals Ltd. were reported to exceed 2,000 parts per million (ppm) tungsten with up to 2,140 ppm tungsten (0.214% W or 0.27% WO3) (Martin, 2010).
Two 2009 diamond drill holes by Geodex Minerals Ltd. were reported to intersect 3,064 ppm tungsten (0.306% W or 0.38% WO3) over 1.55 meters core length and 4,430 ppm tungsten (0.443% W or 0.55% WO3) over 0.96 meters core length (Martin, 2010). These near-surface intercepts are reported to be within altered granite.
A 2016 soil sample collected by Dave Stevens was reported to return a highly anomalous value of 214 ppm tungsten (Steven, 2016).
A 2017 rock sample collected by Dave Stevens was reported to return 8,030 ppm tungsten (0.803% W or 1.01% WO3) (Stevens, 2018). The Report of Work indicates this sample to have been collected from glacial float.
Great Atlantic recently obtained sample data for rock samples collected by the late Dave Stevens during 2022. A rock sample reported to have been collected from the area of the Nashwaak Lake Property returned 20,300 ppm tungsten (2.03% W or 2.55% WO3). Great Atlantic's management are assuming this sample was collected from glacial float.
The Sisson Project of Northcliff Resources Ltd. is located approximately three kilometers southeast of the Nashwaak Lake Property. The Sisson Project hosts the Sisson Tungsten - Molybdenum Deposit. Northcliff reported mineral reserves at the Sisson Deposit of 334.4 million tonnes of proven and probable reserves at 0.066% WO3 and 0.021% Mo and an NSR of $24.15 / tonne (January 2013 at $8.83 / tonne NSR cut-off). Readers are warned that mineralization at the Sison Project is not necessarily indicative of mineralization at the Nashwaak Lake Property.
Readers are warned that Great Atlantic has not verified tungsten soil anomalies or tungsten bearing rock samples at the Nashwaak Lake Property as stated in this report.
David Martin, P.Geo., (New Brunswick and Newfoundland and Labrador), a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and VP Exploration for Great Atlantic, is responsible for the technical information contained in this News Release.

GreenPower Provides Business Update and Reports Year-End Fiscal 2025 Results

VANCOUVER, BC, July 30, 2025 /CNW/ -- GreenPower Motor Company Inc. (Nasdaq: GP) (TSXV: GPV) ("GreenPower" and the "Company"), a leading manufacturer and distributor of all-electric, purpose-built, zero-emission medium and heavy-duty vehicles serving the cargo and delivery market, shuttle and transit space and school bus sector, today reported its year-end fiscal year 2025 results. "Fiscal year 2025 was a transformative year for GreenPower as the political winds shifted and federal EV incentives and policies began to change," said GreenPower CEO Fraser Atkinson. "While GreenPower continued to manufacturer and deliver class leading all-electric, purpose-built, zero-emission school buses and commercial vehicles, the Company was focused on adapting to these changes by streamlining production and retooling operations to be successful in the space." During the year GreenPower consolidated its California operations from multiple locations in the state to one facility in Riverside. "Consolidating our operations from five different facilities spread throughout California to one larger facility has reduced our costs and increased efficiency," said GreenPower President Brendan Riley. "Having our U.S. corporate headquarters, engineers, project managers, upfitting operations and west coast manufacturing in one location better positions the company for managed growth and success." Manufacturing in the West Virginia facility continued during the fiscal year with the first BEAST Type D school buses rolling off the manufacturing line for in-state orders and a Round 2 EPA Clean School Bus Program (CSBP) grant that was awarded to multiple school districts in the state during fiscal 2025. In the western half of the country, school bus manufacturing and deliveries also continued during the fiscal year under a variety of programs including the CSBP. Type D BEASTs and Type A Nano BEASTs from GreenPower's California facilities were delivered through its dealers to schools in Arizona, California and Oregon. "As the only all-electric, purpose-built school bus OEM manufacturing both a Type A and a Type D school bus in facilities on both sides of the country, GreenPower is perfectly positioned to meet the market demand nationwide," Atkinson continued. "GreenPower innovation remained at the forefront of activities in fiscal year 2025, as two new Class 4 all-electric, purpose-built, zero-emission commercial vehicles were introduced into the marketplace," Riley stated. The first new vehicle was the EV Star Utility Truck which is built for day-to-day demands and workloads and is equipped with optional power sources, providing accessible power through built-in plugs to accommodate tool charging conveniently on a job site. The front box of the vehicle has optional full pass-through capacity, allowing for oversize tools and supplies. The EV Star Utility Truck offers tailored contractor body configurations, coming in a standard bed size of 16 feet, with the option to customize the length to meet the customer's needs, allowing for more room and applications. The second new vehicle unveiled during the fiscal year was the EV Star REEFER X, a new modern offering, all-electric refrigerated medium-duty delivery truck. Built on GreenPower's EV Star Cab & Chassis platform, the EV Star REEFER X is purpose-built and fully customizable with a lighter body to allow for increased payload. Designed to serve mid to last-mile refrigerated delivery and catering applications, the EV Star REEFER X moves goods that need to be temperature controlled, such as fresh and frozen foods, flowers and pharmaceuticals, among other applications. The vehicle body features a one interior wall structure to allow for seamless sanitation, consistent insulation throughout and a longer life. 2025 Year-End Highlights: Generated revenues of $19.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2025. GreenPower delivered a total of 84 vehicles, which were comprised of 34 BEAST Type D school buses, two Nano BEAST Type A school buses, 23 EV Star Cargo and EV Star Cargo Plus commercial vehicles and 25 EV Star Passenger Vans. GreenPower had working capital of $8.1 million at year-end. At the end of the year GreenPower had inventory of $25.6 million, consisting of $10.1 million of finished goods, $11.3 million of work-in-process and $4.2 million of parts and components. The Company had Deferred revenue of $10.1 million at year-end. Completed an underwritten offering of 3,000,000 common shares raising gross proceeds of $3 million in October 2024 and a unit offering in which it issued 1,500,000 common shares and warrants to purchase 1,575,000 common shares for gross proceeds of $2,325,750.

Winnipeg war monument slated for move to Field of Honour, despite social media fears

A war monument that graced Winnipeg's Portage and Main intersection for a century is expected to once again be prominently displayed in the fall, despite a recent uproar on social media suggesting the statue was being discarded. The Manitoba Métis Federation says the statue is scheduled to be moved this fall to the Field of Honour in Brookside Cemetery, which was created for the internment of veterans returning from the war. The monument, which depicts the figure of a Canadian First World War soldier, had stood outside the former Bank of Montreal building at Portage and Main since 1923. It was removed to make way for construction work so the intersection could be reopened to pedestrians in June. The statue's relocation was announced last year, but some people on social media wondered if the plan was scrapped after a photo circulated this week that seemingly shows the statue in an outdoor property beside other debris. However, MMF says the statue is being kept in a storage facility yard, not a junkyard. The federation explained that, based on the angle of the photo, the overgrowth and rusted items that are seemingly beside the statue aren't in the same yard. "Due to the size and weight of the monument and based on the expert guidance we were given, we agreed to have it stored outdoors, wrapped in protective coverings. We understand that it was recently and temporarily unwrapped while the storage facility made some adjustments to its yard," MMF spokesperson Kat Patenaude said in a statement. She added MMF "fully intends" to follow through on its commitment to relocate the statue to the cemetery. Public ceremony planned That's scheduled for the fall, "pending the finalization of the donation agreement with the City of Winnipeg," Patenaude said. She said a public ceremony will be held. MMF acquired the statue when it bought the former Bank of Montreal building on the southeast corner of Portage and Main in 2020. The monument honours the 231 Bank of Montreal employees across Canada who died in the war. Last year, a city report said MMF agreed to give the statue to the city as a gift, including covering the costs of relocation. The property and development committee voted unanimously in favour of moving the monument, which will now belong to the city.
