Harmony Biosciences Launches Grant Program To Address Inequities In The Delivery Of Healthcare In Patients With Sleep Disorders

Progress at the Heart grant program will award up to $125,000 in grants in recognition of World Health Day and National Minority Health Month

PR Newswire

PLYMOUTH MEETING, Pa., April 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Harmony Biosciences Holdings, Inc. (“Harmony”) (Nasdaq: HRMY), a pharmaceutical company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative therapies for patients living with rare neurological disorders who have unmet medical needs, today announced the launch of a new grant program, Progress at the Heart, to accelerate programs and solutions that address inequity in access to diagnosis, treatment, and care in the rare disease and sleep disorder community.

Many people from underrepresented racial, ethnic, or other minority groups often face an even greater disparity in access to care, particularly given underrepresentation in research and clinical trials. In recognition of World Health Day and National Minority Health Month this April, Progress at the Heart seeks community- and education-based solutions and grant applications are currently being accepted. Up to $125,000 in grants will be awarded by September 2021 in an effort to help achieve greater equality of care within the sleep disorder community.

Progress at the Heart is a natural extension of our grant programs and supports our mission to address the needs of those living with sleep disorders or rare diseases who experience sleep disruption and problems related to impaired wakefulness,” said Cate McCanless, Harmony’s Senior Vice President, Corporate Affairs and Policy. “Language barriers, real or perceived discrimination and bias, lack of access to resources and many more factors can contribute to the overall disparities experienced by racial, ethnic and other underrepresented minorities related to sleep health and sleep disorder diagnosis and treatment. We believe that through programs funded by Progress at the Heart grants, we will be able to recognize, realize and replicate effective interventions that address these disparities in the management of patients with sleep disorders, which, in turn, could reduce overall health disparities and improve quality of life for so many people.”

Harmony is accepting two rounds of grant applications in 2021 from April 7May 31 and from June 1August 20 which will be reviewed by a cross-functional team of Harmony employees. Grants will be awarded to applicants by the end of June and September 2021, respectively.

U.S. Gold Corp. Announces New Targets for Upcoming Commencement of Drilling at Maggie Creek, Carlin Gold Belt, in Nevada

– U.S. Gold Corp. intends to drill up to 5,000 feet (approx. 1,500 m) in up to 2 holes as part of ongoing exploration

– These holes seek to assess a new target concept below post-mineral cover to the east of Nevada Gold Mines’ Gold Quarry mine

– Target was developed using structural projections, gravity data and geochemistry

PR Newswire

ELKO, Nev., April 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — U.S. Gold Corp. (NASDAQ: USAU), a gold exploration and development company, is pleased to announce plans for the commencement of core drill testing of a previously untested, covered Carlin-type target on its Maggie Creek project, located directly east of Nevada Gold Mines’ Gold Quarry mine and processing facilities.

Ken Coleman, U.S. Gold Corp.’s Chief Geologist, states, “We are very pleased to move forward with the initial assessment of this target concept in an area not previously tested due to thick post-mineral cover. Previous operators have looked at the property from the standpoint of shallow, open-pit mineable and heap leachable deposit exploration. We have seen over the recent years an increase in exploration under cover for potentially high-grade, underground mineable gold deposits along the Carlin and Battle Mountain-Eureka Gold Belts. I think high-grade, underground mining is the future in Nevada and that the best opportunities for major discoveries will be under cover. Pursuing these opportunities will require proper mapping and sound geologic reasoning, supported by geochemical and geophysical tools. While we will continue to assess near-surface opportunities on our various projects, we will also be placing a stronger emphasis on concealed targets in areas of our projects that have been lightly tested or not previously explored.”

Previous interpretations of the local structure and mineral potential of the Maggie Creek project have been based upon straight-line projections of the northeast striking Chukar-Alunite (CA) fault zone and related steeply dipping features in its footwall across several northwest striking faults, including the Good Hope fault. However, the CA fault zone dips 35-45° to the southeast, and as such, cannot be properly projected in a straight line across current topography and several northwest striking faults to the east of Gold Quarry. In addition, most of the major mineralization at Gold Quarry is located in the hanging wall of the CA fault zone, especially where it intersects with steeper dipping antithetics (i.e., Deep Sulfide Feeder faults). If the CA fault zone is truly through-going, then it should be projected along the Tertiary paleosurface and take into account offsets along the several Good Hope parallel faults that exist between Gold Quarry and Maggie Creek. Based upon those projections, we believe that the best potential for high-grade gold deposits of significant size exists in the southeast end of the Maggie Creek project, under post-mineral Carlin Formation cover. See the figures below for more information.

 

Figure 1. Plan and cross-sectional view of Nevada Gold Mines’ Gold Quarry deposit.

 

Figure 2. Maggie Creek project and target area.

 

George Bee, President and CEO stated, “This drill target is a well-thought out and promising effort to discover the next high grade gold deposit on the Carlin Trend. Previous operators have encountered lower-grade, near surface mineralization at Maggie Creek, but a new, high-grade discovery could be a game-changer and provide real value to shareholders.”

QA/QC Procedure

U.S. Gold Corp. employs a rigorous QA/QC protocol on all aspects of sampling and analytical procedure. Drill core is checked, logged, marked for sampling and sawn in half. One-half of each drill core is maintained for future reference, and the other half of each drill core is sent to Bureau Veritas, an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory in Reno, Nevada to complete all sample preparation and assaying. Samples are analyzed employing fire assaying with atomic absorption finish for gold, and four-acid ICP-MS analysis for silver and copper. For QA/QC purposes, certified standards, blank samples and sample duplicates are inserted into the sample stream. U.S. Gold Corp. also periodically submits sample pulps to another independent laboratory for check analysis.

COVID-19 Policy

U.S. Gold Corp. recognizes the heightened health risks associated with the current pandemic. At this stage of the CK Gold Project development, focusing largely on the gathering of information from the field, our personnel, contractors and consultants do not need to come into close contact with others apart from work within individual pods such as the drill crew and core logging personnel. Much of our work is conducted outdoors and physically separated. Meetings are conducted from remote locations using available video conferencing software. When it is necessary for individuals to meet or visit facilities, health guidelines are followed to avoid and minimize the risk of spreading the COVID-19 virus. We take the health and safety of all those associated with our activities very seriously. If necessary, we will suspend activities and observe quarantine regimens until any health uncertainty passes.

About U.S. Gold Corp.

U.S. Gold Corp. is a publicly traded, U.S. focused gold exploration and development company. U.S. Gold Corp. has a portfolio of exploration properties. Copper King, now the CK Gold Project, is located in Southeast Wyoming and has a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) technical report, which was completed by Mine Development Associates available on the US. Gold Corp. website. Keystone and Maggie Creek are exploration properties on the Cortez and Carlin Trends in Nevada. The Challis Gold Project is located in Idaho.

Safe Harbor

Certain statements in this press release are forward-looking within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “forecast,” “estimated,” and “intend,” among others. These forward-looking statements are based on U.S. Gold Corp.’s current expectations, and actual results could differ materially from such statements. There are a number of factors that could cause actual events to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, risks arising from: the prevailing market conditions for metal prices and mining industry cost inputs, environmental and regulatory risks, risks faced by junior companies generally engaged in exploration activities, whether U.S. Gold Corp. will be able to raise sufficient capital to implement future exploration programs, COVID-19 uncertainties, and other factors described in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which can be reviewed at 

www.sec.gov

. The Company has based these forward-looking statements on its current expectations and assumptions about future events. While management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory, and other risks, contingencies, and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the Company’s control. The Company makes no representation or warranty that the information contained herein is complete and accurate and we have no duty to correct or update any information contained herein.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Mineral Resources

We may use certain terms on this press release, which are defined in Canadian Institute of Metallurgy guidelines, the guidelines widely followed to comply with Canadian National Instrument 43–101– Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43–101”). We advise U.S. investors that these terms are not recognized by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). However, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute “reserves” by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. Note that a preliminary economic assessment is preliminary in nature, and it includes Inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied that would enable them to be classified as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary assessment will be realized.

With New China Warehouse, TCM Cuts E-commerce Costs, Streamlines Shipping, Boosts Product Quality

Consumers benefit from TCM’s direct product QA; e-commerce stores benefit from double-digit cost savings and more

HERZLIYA PITUACH, Israel, April 07, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — E-commerce aggregator Technology Commerce Management (TCM) today announced it has leased a 32,000 square foot warehouse in Ningbo Port, China. Fully managed by TCM, the warehouse eliminates the costs, risks and inefficiencies of third-party warehouse management, while dramatically improving product quality assurance and streamlining the shipping process. TCM’s move results in myriad benefits for the company’s e-commerce stores, as well as consumers.

The Ningbo Port warehouse enables TCM to centralize its supply chain for all products sold by its e-commerce businesses from more than 180 suppliers. As a result, TCM will:

  • Ensure all products meet its own rigorous quality standards
  • Streamline inventory production and reduce the need for costly inventory storage
  • Reduce warehouse costs by at least 50 percent and shipping costs by as much as 30 percent
  • Enable direct-to-consumer shipping for TCM-owned off-Amazon stores
  • Increase consumer access to products not currently allowed on Amazon’s marketplace, such as anti-bacterial products

In keeping with the company’s mission to share the massive wealth generated by the e-commerce groundswell, TCM will funnel 20 percent of its related shipping-cost savings to philanthropic organizations, such as youth-at-risk programs and those supporting children with disabilities. TCM will also gradually move toward using sustainable shipping materials, which correlates with the company’s core values.

“We made this bold, timely decision to tackle the quality issues and cost barriers we encounter with warehousing and shipping,” said TCM co-founder Gabi Bar. “Having our own warehouse on location in China puts TCM fully in control of product quality, as well as shipping timeliness – both of which are so important to building customer loyalty and business growth. It also opens up new opportunities for our off-Amazon stores on Shopify, Magento, eBay and other marketplaces to shorten delivery times to consumers.”

From the consumer point of view, TCM’s warehousing strategy ensures delivered products will be of the highest quality. This keeps customers happy and encourages them to order again.

From an e-commerce business perspective, TCM’s strategy improves cash flow management for high-growth stores, reduces the amount of advance stock required for typical fulfillment processes and speeds up most delivery times to consumers.

TCM SuperBrain™ AI technology drives optimization and growth in niche superstars

HERZLIYA PITUACH, Israel, April 07, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tech-first e-commerce aggregator Technology Commerce Management (TCM) today announced that it added three new niche online stores to its rapidly expanding house of brands. The new stores bring the total number of outlets in TCM’s portfolio to 26 with plans to increase the stores’ revenue by an estimated 30 percent using its artificial intelligence (AI)-driven optimization.

“We are very optimistic about the prospects of these acquisitions,” said Gabi Bar, TCM co-founder. “They are already performing very well, with combined annual revenues approaching $6 million. But, with TCM’s AI and machine learning (ML) provided by our SuperBrain Technology™, we expect sales and revenue for each store to grow dramatically in 2021 and beyond.”

TCM will leverage its proprietary AI and ML technologies in combination with the company’s comprehensive ecosystem to grow sales and profitability for these new TCM brands. The three acquisitions will be optimized for accelerated growth using the following strategies:

  • Adding product variation and improving inventory management
  • Increasing sales with AI-driven PPC tools
  • Penetrating eBay, Walmart, Rakuten, and other US-based off-Amazon marketplaces
  • Identifying and introducing new products through the company’s AI/ML product discovery system
