TOKYO, Feb 6, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - From 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Jan. 29, Blackbox held its first in-house media event. We were aiming to start off small, so we were pleasantly surprised with the turnout - thank you to all the press and ecosystem representatives who made the time to come by.BLACKBOX EVENTRoundtable With Regional DelegatesIt being our first event, we began by explaining Blackbox's mission statement and the social context that led to our launch. General Manager Taiki Iwasaki talked about the growing support for startups - especially foreign startups - in Japan over the last few years.We are now roughly midway through previous PM Kishida's five-year Startup Development plan, and the landscape is indeed changing. Currently over 700 Startup Visas have been issued, with well over half of them maturing to full-time Business Management Visas.And yet there remains the issue of Japan being a black box to outsiders, especially within the business sphere. Even information exclusively intended for non-Japanese - for example, the application process for a startup visa - is often only available in Japanese, and often fragmented and buried on various regional government websites.This is what Blackbox seeks to address; via Directory pages for each featured city, users can find information about visas, government support programs, local organisations, news, and interviews with local entrepreneurs, all in English.Startup City ProjectWe were also happy to welcome Toru Udagawa, representative of the Cabinet Office's Secretariat of Science, Technology, and Innovation Policy, who gave a presentation on the government's roadmap for further developing Japan's startup ecosystem. The startup phase is of course very exciting, but how will a healthy startup ecosystem mature into an economic engine contributing to Japan's future, and what support structures and tools need to be in place to help it do so?Roundtable With Regional DelegatesThe highlight of the afternoon was a roundtable discussion with representatives from Shibuya, Nagoya, Kobe, Kyoto, and Sapporo - all cities within Special Economic Zones that offer startup visas.It was fascinating to hear how the different cultural and historical backgrounds of the different areas have affected the startup scenes there, as well as their designs for the future. Nagoya, with its long history of heavy industry and manufacturing, is keen to expand into global hubs such as the U.S., Europe, and Singapore, while the port town of Kobe emphasises collaboration within Japan and the immediate area, like Taiwan and Korea. Shibuya's place as a premier world destination sees it making efforts towards attracting foreign capital and VCs, while Hokkaido's rich quality of life acts as a strong force in attracting human resources. Overall, a brilliant insight into the strengths of the different regions.Thank YouBlackbox recently celebrated its second year of operations, and we're constantly growing and devising new ways to demystify the startup scene in Japan.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - February 5, 2025) - Doubleview Gold Corp. (TSXV: DBG) (OTCQB: DBLVF) (FSE: 1D4) (the "Company" or "Doubleview") is pleased to announce further drill hole results from the 2024 drill campaign at its 100% owned Polymetallic Hat Porphyry Project, located in northwestern British Columbia. Long copper-gold-silver-cobalt intercepts in Drill holes H075, H076 and H077 expand the mineralization and potentially will increase the Hat Project's resource in size and grade.2024 Exploration:The 2024 drilling program was designed to confirm the integrity of the resource estimate categories, particularly the indicated resource figures and potentially to allow elevating part or all to a measured resource. Holes were directed to intersect shallow mineralization and to further explore high grade zones. Drilling has confirmed the continuity of mineralization indicating that the deposit exhibits greater consistency than typically expected of a porphyry-style deposit.Important Drill hole Intercepts:DDH From (m)To (m)Length (m)CuEq3 (%) excluding Sc2O3Au (g/t)Cu (%)Ag (g/t)Co (g/t)Sc (g/t)H075 90.0525.0435.00.350.150.210.4064.827.2 Including90.0406.7316.70.420.170.250.4874.226.7 Including148.0389.0241.00.500.210.300.5474.426.0 Including196.7253.356.61.000.440.621.1895.723.8 Including218.5240.021.52.060.791.412.62110.223.5H076 12.084.072.00.440.490.050.5747.629.7 Including21.063.042.00.700.820.070.8647.031.0 Including28.857.028.21.011.200.091.1745.628.4 And247.8367.0119.20.400.200.220.1764.229.1H077 89.0497.0408.00.320.130.160.36103.428.0 Including116.0148.032.00.490.170.240.72225.723.5 Including249.0369.0120.00.400.200.200.1898.128.6 Including352.0356.04.00.870.210.250.3390427.2 Detailed High-Grade Results: a) DDH H075:The high-grade intercepts are tabulated below:DDH From (m)To (m)Length (m)CuEq3 (%) excluding Sc2O3Au (g/t)Cu (%)Ag (g/t)Co (g/t)Sc (g/t)H075 196.7253.356.61.000.440.621.1895.723.8 Including206.0240.034.01.530.670.971.80101.023.7 Including218.5240.021.52.060.791.412.62110.223.5 Including227.0236.09.04.551.733.185.76129.425.6H075And329.0351.022.00.990.390.670.9468.419.5 Additionally, drill hole H075 has significant mineralization from 45 metres depth to 341 metres, with 0.40% CuEq.

It is not possible to determine true widths. - Parameters used to calculate Copper Equivalent: Au price (US$/oz): 1900; Ag price (US$/oz): 24; Cu price (US$/lb): 4; Co price (US$/lb): 22. Au recovery: 89.0%; Ag recovery: 68.0%; Cu recovery: 84.0%; Co recovery: 78.0%. * Copper Equivalent Calculation CuEq in % = ([Ag grade in ppm] *24*0.68/31.1035 + [Au grade in ppm] *1900*.89/31.1035 + 0.0001* [Co grade in ppm] *22*0.78*22.0462 + 0.0001* [Cu grade in ppm] *4*0.84*22.0462)/(4*22.0462*0.84). Mr. Farshad Shirvani, president & CEO of Doubleview, states: "The 2024 drill campaign was successful in testing, confirming and improving our resource model. We are encouraged to see the occurrence of mineralization closer to the surface as well as strong mineralization drill holes which proves continuity and allows for more detailed structural interpretations. This will strongly reflect in the upcoming MRE.V 2.0 that will be part of Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) and add value to the Polymetallic Hat Deposit by increasing the metal content. We are continuously working on our exploration model as data becomes available to recognize details of the deposit and its critical and precious metals."The following section illustrates drill holes H075 to H077 intersecting the Hat polymetallic deposit along the strike of major high-grade mineralization.

One half is placed in a stout bag to form the assay sample that is forwarded securely to the independent analytical lab. The remaining half core is stored on site where it is available for further examination and sampling. The assay cores are subject to a Chain of Custody routine as they are shipped from camp to a bonded carrier for delivery to the lab.Core samples are analysed at the North Vancouver facility of ALS Canada Ltd. using their PREP-31, PGM-ICP24, ME-MS61, and ME-ICP06 packages. Each core sample is dried, then crushed to 70% passing a 2mm screen. All material is processed in an automatic Riffle splitter to yield a 250g homogenized, representative sample. This sub-sample is then pulverized to 85% passing a 75-micron screen. All samples are analyzed for Au, Pt, Pd by 50g fire-assay fusion/ICP-ES finish, using PGM-ICP24 package. A separate 0.25g pulp split is analyzed by Four Acid digestion/ICP-MS finish, reporting 48 elements. Over limit elements are analyzed by Ore Grade Four Acid digestion/ICP-ES finish using ME-OG62 assay package. All of Doubleview's core samples are analyzed or assayed at independent ISO 17025 and ISO 9001- certified laboratories.When initial assays are received and accepted by our staff, a certain fraction of the samples will be sent to a second ISO-certified lab for check assay and verification purposes.
