Yvon Charest receives President’s Award from the Canadian Institute of Actuaries

OTTAWA, Nov. 25, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — During the closing ceremonies of last week’s act20, the annual conference of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries (CIA), longtime member and volunteer Yvon Charest was presented with the Institute’s prestigious President’s Award.

The annual award is conferred by the CIA’s President to a person who has made significant contributions to the actuarial profession in Canada.

Charest graduated in actuarial science from Laval University in 1979, becoming a Fellow of the CIA in 1982 and a Fellow of the US Society of Actuaries in 1981. He devoted his entire professional career to iA Financial Group, where he quickly climbed the ranks to become President and Chief Executive Officer, a position he held until his retirement in 2018. Under his presidency, iA completed its demutualization, and at the end of 2018 its assets under management and administration were close to $169 billion.

Charest has made a significant contribution to the growth of the CIA by volunteering his time to numerous committees and working groups, including the Task Force on Insurance Legislation and the Committee on the Appointed Actuary, and serving on the CIA Board of Directors from 1989 to 1992.

On top of being very professionally active and a dedicated father of three, Charest has also made significant contributions to his community and numerous charities, earning him the following distinctions:

  • Officer of the Ordre national du Québec (2019)
  • Grand Québécois – Secteur Économique from the Chambre de commerce et d’industrie de Québec (2018)
  • Officer of the Order of Canada (2016)
  • Les Affaires CEO of the Year Award – Most socially engaged executive (2016)
  • Finance et
    Investissement Quebec Financial Personality of the Year (2004, 2008, and 2015)
  • United Way Canada Board of Directors Award (2013)
  • Ordre des
    mécènes of the city of Québec (2012)

In 2010, the mayor of Quebec entrusted Charest with the role of lead negotiator with various investors interested in the Quebec amphitheater project. In 2019, as special negotiator, he submitted a report on the continuity of the Quebec bridge, which had just celebrated its 100th anniversary.

“Even highlighting only his major achievements, Yvon Charest’s personal and professional journeys are exceptional – and he’s not done yet,” says Marc Tardif, CIA Immediate Past President. “Yvon recently recruited donors from his community to allow the Mont Sainte-Anne ski centre to upgrade its chair lifts and help the company get through difficult times, without compromising safety.”

The CIA thanks and celebrates Yvon Charest for his notable contributions to the Institute and to the actuarial profession in Canada.

Taku Gold Provides Details on Newfoundland Gold Projects; Announces Name Change to C2C Gold Corp.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 25, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Taku Gold Corp. (CSE: TAK; OTCQB: TAKUF) (the “Company” or “Taku”) today provides project details following the acquisition of three gold exploration projects in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt. The three properties cover more than 493 square km and are host to numerous gold-in-till and gold-in-soil anomalies occurring with coincident geophysical anomalies. The Company’s projects extend over more than 50 km along prospective strike situated between:

  • Marathon Gold Corporation’s Valentine Gold Project (includes Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves of 1.87 Moz: 41.05 Mt at 1.41 g/t gold)1 to the southwest;
  • Great Atlantic Resources Corp.’s Jaclyn Zone Deposit (119,900 oz @ 10.4 g/t gold)2 to the north;
  • Sokoman Minerals Corp.’s Moosehead project (33.6 g/t gold over 24.9 m )3 to the east.

To view a map of the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt and a detailed map of the Company’s projects, please visit:
https://bit.ly/3pV9jT8

Newfoundland Projects – Regional Overview

Newfoundland has long been known to have a large number of gold occurrences with relatively little modern exploration. Historical production from the Hope Brook, Nugget Pond, and Point Rousse projects have been typical of the island’s mines with relatively modest production from high grade deposits. More recently important significant drill intersections such as those at New Found Gold Corp. (22.3 g/t gold over 41.3 m)4 and those contributing to the growing resource at Marathon Gold Corp’s Valentine Deposit have raised the status of the area to that of a premier gold exploration jurisdiction. These continued positive results have given rise to extensive staking and expanded land holdings within Newfoundland’s Central Gold Belt giving rise to a modern-day gold rush.

Taku Gold Project Overview

The three properties, Millertown, Badger and Barrens Lake total 1,974 claims providing the Company with a large land position in Newfoundland. These projects were selected based on gold-in-till and gold-in-soil anomalies combined with favorable rock types, geophysics and structural interpretation. The projects are located in the Central Gold Belt of Newfoundland, situated within the Exploits Subzone of the broader Dunnage tectonostratigraphic zone. A series of faults representing a deep crustal suture zone known as the Red Indian Line (RIL) marks the northwestern boundary of the Exploits Subzone. The properties are located in a regional northeast trending structural trend bound to the northwest by the RIL and to the south by the Valentine Lake Shear Zone that is host to orogenic-style epizonal, structurally-controlled gold-bearing quartz veins and stockworks.

Companies working on active gold projects within this belt and the broader Exploits Subzone have noted the similarity in geological setting and character with both the Abitibi greenstone belts in Ontario and Quebec, Canada and the Bendigo-Fosterville deposits in Australia. Government reports enhanced by work completed by prospectors and public companies have shown, in many instances, gold-in-till anomalies are related to underlying gold-in-soil anomalies which are more directly linked to underlying bedrock gold occurrences.

All three properties are at an early stage of exploration with till, lake and stream samples, limited soil samples and some geophysics having been completed in the past. The Company is in the process of compiling all available data to plan a large work program including extensive and detailed soil sampling and detailed mapping to better understand the structural geology for all three projects in order to select potential drill targets. Further details will be outlined when fully developed. Exploration in the area is facilitated by an existing road network and towns to provide accommodation and services.

Badger Property

The Badger property is located 7 km from the community of Badger and is proximal to Great Atlantic Resources’ Golden Promise property, host to the Jaclyn gold deposit. The Trans-Canada Highway provides general access to the Badger area which hosts a network of Forest Service Roads. The property is made up of four licenses holding 712 mineral claims.

The Badger property covers anticlinal structures, as indicated by government bedrock geology maps and aeromagnetic geophysical surveys. The Caradocian graphitic black shale sequence is a useful marker to define the fold structure underlying the Badger and the other Taku properties. A limited amount of historical base metal exploration was conducted on the Badger property, mainly for copper and nickel associated with gabbro sequences.

Historical government and company till sampling over the Badger property shows gold-in-till anomalies on the Badger property associated with regional anticline and syncline structures.

M
illertown Property

The Millertown property is located less than 10 km from the towns of Millertown and Buchans Landing and 60 km from the larger town of Grand Falls-Windsor. Access to the Millertown property is through a series of Forest Service Roads and is made up of six licenses holding a total of 908 mineral claims. The Millertown property has seen limited historical mineral exploration. Regional till sampling shows multi-element gold, antimony, arsenic, and lead anomalies. Soil sampling by the vendor has established areas of anomalous gold-in-till and gold-in-soil coincident with structures identified from geophysics. Although these areas offer potential drill targets, the Company anticipates conducting soil sampling and mapping in larger areas to identify the priority drill targets across the entire property.

Barrens
Lake
Property

The Barrens Lake Property is located 12 km southwest from the Millertown property with existing road access to the 354 mineral claims. There are no recorded mineral occurrences on the Barrens Landing property however government till sampling shows anomalous gold-in-till samples trending across the Barrens Lake property.

Company to change name to C2C Gold Corp.

Reflecting the Company’s new focus in Newfoundland, the Company announces its pending name change to “C2C Gold Corp.” which will be effective within 10 business days. Upon completion of the name change the Company will commence trading under its new name and ticker symbol “CTOC” on the CSX Exchange stock market.

Technical information in this news release has been approved by Lori Walton, P. Geo., CEO and Director of Taku Gold Corp. and “Qualified Person” as defined by National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

Helping clients achieve next-level sustainability performance inspired by natural systems

PR Newswire

DALLAS, Nov. 25, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Jacobs (NYSE:J) has signed a strategic alliance teaming agreement with Biomimicry 3.8 (B3.8), a global consulting and innovation firm specializing in nature-based solutions and nature-inspired designs. Biomimicry is an innovation methodology informed by 3.8 billion years of natural evolution and provides a unique platform for the development of sustainable and regenerative designs. 

In response to increasing worldwide needs and client demands for greater positive development impacts, Jacobs has created a unique collaboration with B3.8 to offer Positive Performance, an assessment and innovation methodology created by B3.8 to help corporate clients develop and integrate regenerative best practices, thereby improving the health and wellbeing of ecosystems and the communities who depend on them.

This methodology helps engineers, architects, landscape architects and planners to understand, emulate and facilitate ecosystem services – the multi-faceted benefits that natural ecosystems provide to humanity (such as air quality, carbon sequestration, water cycle management, aesthetics, and renewable energy), in order to deliver health and wellness benefits through their designs.

“The natural world offers us an endless source of inspiring and novel ways to reimagine how we solve pressing challenges to help our clients achieve next-level sustainability performance,” said Jacobs People & Places Solutions Global Market Leader for the Built Environment Monte Wilson. “We have to learn to think differently to solve the complex problems we increasingly face globally, and this agreement with B3.8 reflects Jacobs’ commitment to sustainability and innovation in our cities and communities around the world.”

Jacobs and B3.8 are now engaged on projects with Ford Motor Company and University of California at Davis Healthcare.  

Janine Benyus, B3.8 co-founder and Time Magazine’s Hero for the Planet Award winner, said “Delivering on this level of sustainability vision requires bold partnerships, which is why it’s so exciting to see B3.8 ‘s first-to-market Positive Performance methodology paired with Jacobs’ first-in-class implementation.”
