As flagship events of International Healthcare Week (IHW), both ASGH and the Medical Fair brought global healthcare stakeholders together, including government officials and organisations, research pioneers, investors, and business leaders. ASGH attracted over 2,900 participants from 42 countries and regions, while the Medical Fair received some 13,000 buyers from 57 countries and regions. Over 390 one-on-one deal-making sessions and more than 660 business matching meetings were arranged, facilitating over 1,000 high-quality collaborations and connections. The IHW continues to foster global exchange and cooperation, putting a spotlight on Hong Kong’s vast potential in healthcare investment and trade, and reinforcing its position as a regional leading medical hub.Dr Peter K N Lam, Chairman of the HKTDC, said: "The Asia Summit on Global Health and the Hong Kong International Medical and Healthcare Fair concluded with outstanding results driving new collaborations and investments, and injecting new momentum into the healthcare industry. The events brought together leaders across government, business, academia, and investment to tackle today’s healthcare challenges, highlighting Hong Kong’s unique advantages as an international innovation and technology hub under its ‘eight centres’ positioning, actively advancing medical technology, connecting global innovation resources, and paving the way for a healthier and more inclusive future."Over 80 industry experts shared insights on healthcare developmentThe two-day ASGH, jointly organised by the HKSAR Government and the HKTDC under the theme ‘Fostering Global Collaboration for a Shared Future’, focused on a wide spectrum of topics including public health, medical technology breakthroughs, healthy ageing and global business and investment collaboration. The event featured more than 80 speakers comprising government officials and organisations, research pioneers, investors, and business leaders from around the world, all contributing valuable insights to advance global well-being.Prof Lo Chung-mau, Secretary for Health of the HKSAR Government, delivered a keynote speech during the Plenary Session I: Shaping a More Equitable and Sustainable Health System. Other distinguished speakers, including Dr Wu Xiaobin, Vice President of China Pharmaceutical Innovation and Research Development Association; Martin Taylor, Representative to China, World Health Organization; Prof Nancy Ip, President of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology; and Frédéric Rimattei, Special Envoy for International Affairs of the President of French University Hospitals National Association, shared their insights on tackling global healthcare challenges, offering inspiration for the international healthcare community.In Plenary Session II: Fostering Global Collaboration for a Shared Future, speakers engaged in a lively discussion on trends in global healthcare collaboration. Among them was Ambassador George Hara, Group Chairman and CEO of DEFTA Partners and former Special Advisor to the Cabinet Office of the Prime Minister of Japan, who remarked that more advanced technology and new government regulations are needed to reach a compromise between companies' profits and patients' needs.During the Dialogue with Global Pioneer in Health session, Prof John Hardy, Chair of Molecular Biology of Neurological Disease of UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology, shared his latest research findings and advanced developments in Alzheimer's disease.The summit co-organised sessions under the overarching theme, Shaping the Future of Healthcare, with the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology for the first time. The discussion focused on the potential of AI in healthcare and how innovation could drive breakthroughs in the field. Dr Alex Ng, President of Tencent Healthcare, commented: “One uniqueness of tech companies is that they can be easily distracted by the latest thing. But you do need companies with patience and perseverance to stay in healthcare and make it work.” Prof Graham Cooke, Vice-Dean (Research) Medicine of Imperial College London, also noted that embedding patient needs into healthcare systems is critical, as many innovations fail in translation due to a lack of this focus, with universities playing a key role as innovation drivers.In Beyond ‘Healthy China 2030’: Driving Health Innovation, speakers explored opportunities in the mainland healthcare market. Marc Horn, Executive Vice President of Merck and President of Merck China, highlighted the two-phase approach of "China for China" followed by "China for the globe”, emphasising healthcare collaboration to develop advanced treatments for global benefit. Dr Zhang Lianshan, Executive Vice President of Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd., stated: "We would like to see our health innovation have realisation of its value, not only in China, but also outside of China. That is why we are talking about Globalisation, where we can achieve maximum value."With growing global attention on healthy ageing, the summit introduced a dedicated Silver Health Chapter. A highlight was the thematic session titled Surfing the Silver Tsunami: Advancements in Geriatrics and Longevity Technology, where Prof Jean Woo, Director of Chinese University of Hong Kong Jockey Club Institute of Ageing, Prof James L. Kirkland, Director of Cedars-Sinai’s Centre for Advanced Gerotherapeutics, and fellow experts explored both the challenges and opportunities posed by ageing populations. Prof Jean Woo highlighted that rapid population ageing is reshaping the global healthcare and socioeconomic landscape. As a city with one of the world’s longest life expectancies, Hong Kong must take early action to strengthen elderly care policies and better allocate health resources. Prof James L. Kirkland also noted that geriatricians ultimately aim to help patients with multiple illnesses reduce medication use while treating their conditions more effectively, enhancing their overall quality of life.Over 390 deal-making sessions and cooperation agreements open new global opportunitiesA key feature of the summit was the ASGH Deal-Making session, which facilitated one-on-one meetings both online and offline, aiming to connect investors and projects in the healthcare sector from around the world to promote global collaborations. Investment projects spanned pharmaceuticals, medical devices and diagnostics, smart healthcare, and community health and wellness and more than 390 one-on-one meetings were successfully arranged for angel investors, venture capitalists, corporate venture arms, private equity firms and family offices.The summit facilitated the signing of cooperation agreements, such as those between Gleneagles Hospital Hong Kong and Emerging Viral Diagnostics, and a tripartite collaboration with PanopticAI and SmartCare, HKSH Medical Group and United Imaging Healthcare, China Resources Guangdong Pharmaceuticals and Hong Kong Medtech Association, Hugobiotech and Bridgeway Healthcare Technology, Canossa Hospital and KA Imaging, and others. These agreements covered diverse healthcare areas, including patient care, diagnostic solutions, innovative medical devices, medical imaging and more. Under the tripartite collaboration agreement between Gleneagles Hospital Hong Kong, PanopticAI, and SmartCare, the integration of PanopticAI’s camera-based vital signs monitoring technology and SmartCare’s patient-centered consultation platform will be implemented into Gleneagles clinic in the future.In addition to its discussion sessions, the summit also featured the ASGH Business Hub, showcasing more than 170 innovative technology companies related to the healthcare industry from 13 countries and regions, including the mainland (Shanghai and Xiamen), Australia, and Thailand, presenting projects and solutions across key areas such as medical innovation, smart healthcare, AI, big data, telemedicine, and cybersecurity. Zhong Wei, Co-founder of Mitrassist Lifesciences, joined the Shanghai Pavilion and said that ASGH helped them bring non-invasive medical monitoring technologies to Southeast Asia, Africa, and other Belt and Road Initiative countries.Medical Fair Drives Industry Innovation and Fosters Business CollaborationThe Medical Fair, organised by the HKTDC and co-organised by the Hong Kong MedTech Association, was held alongside ASGH. The Association—formerly known as the Hong Kong Medical and Healthcare Device Industries Association—held a renaming ceremony during the fair, showcasing the deep integration of medical technology and the industry.The fair brought together some 300 exhibitors from 13 countries and regions, featuring first-time pavilions from the United Kingdom, Thailand and Israel, along with debut exhibitors from Singapore, Germany, Italy and Luxembourg. In addition, seven local universities, over 30 innovative technology companies at the Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks pavilion, and more than 20 medical enterprises brought by the Hong Kong MedTech Association participated. The Hong Kong Council of Social Service also participated in the fair for the first time. Under the theme Innovations Boosting Smart Health Experience, the exhibition spotlighted three major areas: MedTech, GeronTech and green solutions, with many exhibits featuring applications of AI.Many exhibitors and buyers successfully expanded their networks and forged new partnerships at the exhibition.

Brisbane, Queensland, Australia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - May 27, 2025) - Graphene Manufacturing Group Ltd. (TSXV: GMG) (OTCQX: GMGMF) ("GMG" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the following internal GMG run engine test results when G® Lubricant was added to a Caterpillar 22 kVA diesel engine run at an 80% Load. Test results show a 10% increase in energy efficiency (kwh/litres), and also a 33% reduction in harmful diesel engine exhaust particulate matter emissions, when three doses of G® Lubricant, with a maximum graphene dosage of 0.03%, was added to the standard diesel engine oil.It is noted that the test engine was not operating optimally before G® Lubricant was added - the engine was overheating at long runs of sustained high loads. As a result, after the initial dose of G® Lubricant was added, an additional two dosages of G® Lubricant were used to hopefully bring the engine into a more stable operating regime, an outcome that was generally achieved.Figure 1To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/253490_gmg_image.jpgBuy Now at: www.G-Lubricant.com Figure 2 and 3 show the table and graph distribution of engine efficiency of the various dosages of G® Lubricant versus the baseline.Baseline Diesel Engine OilEngine Efficiency (kwh/litres)G® Lubricant (0.01%)Engine Efficiency (kwh/litres)G® Lubricant (0.02%)Engine Efficiency (kwh/litres)G® Lubricant (0.03%)Engine Efficiency (kwh/litres)3.043.36 (10% increase)3.35 (10% increase)3.36 (10% increase)Figure 2: Engine Efficiency Performance Increase from G® LubricantFigure 3: % Distribution of Fuel Efficiency Relative to BaselineTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/253490_d626526a342c2ac9_005full.jpgFigures 4 and 5 show the table and graph distribution of diesel engine particulate matter emissions of the various dosages of G® Lubricant versus the baseline.Baseline Diesel Engine OilParticulate Matter (ppm)G® Lubricant (0.01%)Particulate Matter(ppm)G® Lubricant (0.02%)Particulate Matter (ppm)G® Lubricant (0.03%)Particulate Matter (ppm)20.9715.56 (26% reduction)14.55 (31% reduction)13.97 (33% reduction)Figure 4: Engine Emission Particulate Matter Reduction from G® LubricantFigure 5: % Distribution of Particulate Matter in Emissions Relative to BaselineTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/253490_d626526a342c2ac9_006full.jpgFigure 6 shows the exhaust emissions of the diesel engine at various dosages of G® Lubricant, versus the baseline which shows similar levels as the baseline test runs.

This oil change was carried out by a professional engine maintenance service company.The engine was run at 80% load and the baseline and G® Lubricant data set used for the analytics is when the maximum ambient temperature for the day was less than 33 degrees Celsius and relative humidity was between 50% and 80% with no rain. Fuel consumption for diesel engines changes when operating in rain or very high humidity or temperatures, so the fuel consumption data baseline and G® Lubricant engine oil additive performance testing were excluded for these times.Only steady state data was used and so any variance or anomalous data seen in either baseline or G® Lubricant datasets were removed from the analytics. Data sets were grouped into minute blocks.Once the baseline fuel tests were completed, G® Lubricant with approximately 1:100 concentration was mixed at approximately 1% ratio by weight into the existing engine oil. This was done another 2 times. The end ratio of GMG's Graphene to the diesel engine oil was approximately 3:10,000 by weight.GMG's Managing Director and CEO, Craig Nicol, commented: "G® Lubricant is not only increasing fuel efficiency it is also reducing particulate matter - which is amazing to see - we will need to do more tests to see what the long-term performance is for this."GMG is continuing to conduct more tests to determine the total performance regime of the G® Lubricant. These performance tests will be announced as the information becomes available.GMG's Chairman and Director, Jack Perkowski, commented: "Fantastic news - G® Lubricant testing data are exciting - well done to the team - showing great promise as a way to reduce fuel costs and emissions across the multi-trillion dollar liquid fuels industry."About GMG:GMG is an Australian based clean-technology company which develops, makes and sells energy saving and energy storage solutions, enabled by graphene manufactured via in house production process. GMG uses its own proprietary production process to decompose natural gas (i.e. methane) into its natural elements, carbon (as graphene), hydrogen and some residual hydrocarbon gases. This process produces high quality, low cost, scalable, 'tuneable' and low/no contaminant graphene suitable for use in clean-technology and other applications.The Company's present focus is to de-risk and develop commercial scale-up capabilities, and secure market applications. In the energy savings segment, GMG has initially focused on graphene enhanced heating, ventilation and air conditioning ("HVAC-R") coating (or energy-saving coating) which is now being marketed into other applications including electronic heat sinks, industrial process plants and data centres.

Participating with pavilions for the first time are Israel, Thailand, and the UK, along with debut exhibitors from Singapore, Germany, Italy and Luxembourg.HONG KONG, May 26, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – International Healthcare Week (IHW), organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), officially opened today. One of its flagship events, the fifth Asia Summit on Global Health (ASGH), takes place today and tomorrow (26 and 27 May) at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC). Under the theme Fostering Global Collaboration for a Shared Future, the summit brings together more than 80 healthcare leaders and experts from around the world to explore the future direction of the industry and collaboration opportunities. Another flagship event, the 16th Hong Kong International Medical and Healthcare Fair (Medical Fair), also kicks off today (26 to 28 May), and features some 300 exhibitors from 13 countries and regions, showcasing cutting-edge MedTech, GeronTech, and green solutions, including many AI-powered innovations, to foster global industry collaboration.The ASGH opened with welcome remarks delivered by HKTDC Chairman Dr Peter K N Lam. “The global health sector is currently facing challenges, including a resurgence in infectious diseases, coupled with the growing needs of an ageing population and ongoing health equity concerns. These issues demand urgent attention and collective action to protect communities worldwide. Now in its fifth edition, ASGH is a key event for the global healthcare industry, and we are proud that connections made through ASGH have enabled many new investments and collaborations in healthcare innovation. Alongside ASGH, the Hong Kong International Medical and Healthcare Fair is taking place. There, you will find the latest HealthTech solutions from around the globe, with a particular focus on hospital equipment, rehabilitation, elderly care and biotech. As anchor events of the International Healthcare Week, ASGH and Medical Fair highlights Hong Kong’s commitment to working with partners to nurture an innovative health and medical sector,” Dr Lam said.In his opening speech, Hong Kong SAR Chief Executive John Lee said: "Under the theme of "Fostering Global Collaboration for a Shared Future", this summit reaffirms Hong Kong's pivotal role as a leading health innovation hub in the region. Under the "one country, two systems" principle, Hong Kong enjoys unique connectivity with both Mainland China and the world. As the world's freest economy and one of the top three international financial centres, we offer an efficient, open and fair business environment with robust intellectual property protection. We maintain free flows of information, capital, goods and talent. We are also emerging as a leading hub for scientific innovation, technological advancement and world-class education.”Prof Cao Xuetao, Vice-Minister of the National Health Commission of the People’s Republic of China, gave special remarks, noting: "China continues to open up and welcomes leading foreign-owned hospitals into the market through investment or joint ventures. We hope that our global partners can further localise and upgrade their mid-to-high-end products, resulting in win-win outcomes for all.”Additionally, Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), delivered remarks at the opening session via video link and stated, “The theme of ASGH could not be more appropriate given the challenges facing global health at the moment. The WHO Pandemic Agreement has been adopted recently. It was negotiated over the past three and a half years and shows a true spirit of international collaboration for global health. By working together, we can build a healthier, safer, and fairer world for all.”Global industry leaders gather to explore opportunities for international collaborationToday's Plenary Session I: Shaping a More Equitable and Sustainable Health System, featured keynote remarks by Prof Lo Chung-mau, Secretary for Health of the HKSAR Government, and Feng Haicang, Level I Bureau Rank Official of Department of Consumer Goods Industry, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People's Republic of China. Prof Lo Chung-mau, stated: “A sustainable health system requires talents and enough healthcare manpower. While the Government has been addressing the issue of manpower shortage through a multipronged strategy, by increasing the number of intakes for local universities and admitting qualified non-locally trained healthcare workers, the 2024 Policy Address announced that the Government supports the plan to establish a third medical school. Indeed, Hong Kong has already hosted two top 30 world class medical schools but we have the ability and the need to develop the third one which shall adopt an innovative strategic positioning in pursuit of complementary development with the two existing ones.” The session was moderated by Prof Tsui Lap-chee, Chairman of the University of Hong Kong Foundation for Educational Development and Research, focused on key issues faced by healthcare systems in addressing global challenges. Distinguished speakers included Martin Taylor, Representative to China of the WHO; and Prof Nancy Ip, President of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. They shared valuable experiences and forward-looking insights to inspire the global healthcare field.Prof Nancy Ip noted: “Universities are more than academic institutions. They are global connectors, neutral platforms, and also engines of innovation, uniquely positioned to bridge divides between disciplines, industries, and also nations.”Distinguished international speakers of Plenary Session II: Fostering Global Collaboration for a Shared Future included Ambassador George Hara, Group Chairman and CEO of DEFTA Partners and former Special Advisor to the Cabinet Office of the Prime Minister of Japan. They jointly explored trends in global healthcare collaboration, injecting new ideas into constructing a more synergistic global healthcare landscape.The summit invited Prof John Hardy, known as the “father of Alzheimer’s disease genetic studies”, Chair of Molecular Biology of Neurological Disease of UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology, to share his outlook on future research and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's in the Dialogue with Global Pioneer in Health session.Prof John Hardy remarked: “For Alzheimer's treatment, I think that two changes can happen quite quickly: improvements in earlier diagnosis, and development of drugs that bypass the blood vessel-based amyloid. What we want to do with drugs is slow decline. If we understand what underpins that decline, it gives us targets, and we’re very excited by some of the findings in that area now.”“Healthy China 2030” serves as the national blueprint for healthcare policy development in Mainland China. In the session Beyond “Healthy China 2030”: Driving Health Innovation, Dr Zhang Lianshan, Executive Vice President, Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd.; and Marc Horn, Executive Vice President of Merck and President of Merck China, explored opportunities in the mainland healthcare market, analysing emerging trends in China's healthcare innovation ecosystem to open new pathways for international collaboration with other speakers.Diverse topics converge with forward-looking insights and the Silver Health Chapter explores new business opportunitiesFor the first time, the summit co-organised two thematic sessions with the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology under the overarching theme Shaping the Future of Healthcare. Speakers included Prof Graham Cooke, Vice-Dean (Research) of Faculty of Medicine at Imperial College London.

Kuala Lumpur, May 26, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – CBL International Limited (NASDAQ: BANL) (“CBL” or the “Company”), the listing vehicle of Banle Group (“Banle” or the “Group”), a leading marine fuel logistics company in the Asia-Pacific region, today announced the official renaming of its Singapore-based wholly owned subsidiary, Majestic Energy (Singapore) Pte Ltd, to support its regional growth strategy.Effective immediately, Majestic Energy (Singapore) Pte Ltd has been officially renamed to Banle International (Singapore) Pte Ltd, reflecting the Group’s deepening commitment to the Singapore market and its strategic expansion into sustainable fuels.Singapore remains the world's largest bunkering hub, with annual sales close to 55 million metric tons in 2024, increased by 6% year-over-year as compared to 2023, according to Maritime & Port Authority of Singapore (“MPA”) statistics. While conventional fuels still dominate the market, demand for sustainable fuels such as biofuels, LNG, and methanol continues to rise steadily. Notably, biofuel sales in the first four months of 2025 in Singapore have already surpassed 50% of the total volume recorded in 2024, according to MPA statistics.As the primary fuel bunkering hub in the Asia-Pacific region, Singapore serves as a strategic base for CBL’s regional expansion. CBL’s revenue in Singapore increased by 102% year-over-year in 2024 as compared to 2023. In March 2025, the Company launched its first biofuel supply services in Singapore — a key regional port — as part of its broader initiative to offer sustainable fuel alternatives across the region, followed by biofuel supply in Malaysia, Hong Kong and various ports in China. CBL’s biofuel sales volumes and sales surged over 600% year-over-year in 2024, supported by strengthened supplier relationships and reliable supply chains. These efforts help customers meet IMO GHG targets while offering sustainable, cost-effective alternatives.“Singapore plays a pivotal role in our long-term growth strategy,” said Dr. Teck Lim Chia, Chairman and CEO of CBL. “The renaming of our subsidiary underscores our strengthened presence in this critical market and reinforces our commitment to supporting the global maritime industry’s transition toward greener energy solutions.”Despite the increasing competition in Singapore’s bunkering sector, CBL continues to differentiate itself through its agile operations and customer-centric approach. The Company prides itself on its ability to adapt and tailor solutions to meet the specific needs of clients and suppliers, enabling it to capture new opportunities in both traditional and emerging fuel segments.Christofel Tian, our Head of Singapore, added "With our rebranding to Banle International (Singapore) Pte Ltd, we are not only aligning ourselves more closely with the Group’s identity but also signaling our long-term commitment to the Singapore market. As the global bunkering landscape evolves, especially with the rapid adoption of sustainable fuels, we are well-positioned to grow alongside Singapore’s vision of becoming a leader in sustainable maritime solutions."With its robust regulatory environment, mature infrastructure, and strong government support, Singapore is well-positioned to maintain its leadership in the global bunkering market — and CBL is committed to growing alongside it.About the Banle GroupCBL International Limited (Nasdaq: BANL) is the listing vehicle of Banle Group, a reputable marine fuel logistic company based in the Asia Pacific region that was established in 2015.

Brisbane, Queensland, Australia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - May 21, 2025) - Graphene Manufacturing Group Limited (TSXV: GMG) ("GMG" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the board of directors of GMG have approved the investment of AU$900k for the early works of an expected 10 tonne per annum Gen 2.0 Graphene Manufacturing Technology plant (the "Gen 2.0 Plant") for an estimated AU$2.3 million total capital cost. This expenditure was largely included in the proposed use of proceeds for the March 2025 Bought Deal Financing of C$5,796,000.The Gen 2.0 Plant will be built at the existing natural gas to graphene production plant at its manufacturing facility in Richlands, Queensland, Australia. The early works include the procurement of long lead items and commencement of engineering and design works.The Gen 2.0 Plant is expected to be online by end of June 2026, with production limited to 1 tonne per annum until further work is completed on upgrading packaging systems expected shortly thereafter. The final project is expected to be largely self-powered from standalone energy generation from renewable sources, energy storage system and hydrogen enriched natural gas tail gas power generation. The final project is also expected to include a semi-autonomous bulk graphene packaging system.Figure 1: GMG Headquarters Layout To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/252902_graphene1en.jpgThe Gen 2.0 Plant is based on the GMG plasma technology, Figure 2, with which the Company has been making graphene for over seven years. However, the Gen 2.0 Plant will utilize newly iterated technology which is expected to produce up to 20 times more production per unit than the previous technology. This new technology is expected to deliver:a substantial reduction in capital cost per tonne of production capacitya substantial reduction in cost of goods per kilogram producedan increase in quality of the graphene materials producedFigure 2: Artistic Image of Natural Gas to Graphene PlasmaTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/252902_f96ceb0e94ebf96d_017full.jpgThe details of the proposed Gen 2.0 Plant are as follows:Technology is based on ongoing development of GMG's plasma technology which splits natural gas into graphene and hydrogen gas and captures the graphene nanoplatelets.Automation is expected to allow for repeatable graphene quality, high plant reliability and lower requirement for operator activities.The graphene production technology is expected to be able to make the different graphene required for GMG's end products - including THERMAL-XR®, G® LUBRICANT, SUPA G® and the Graphene Aluminium Ion Battery.This type of new technology production plant can be built in various locations around the world, for example in North America where natural gas cost is low and abundantly available, significantly reducing the cost of the graphene. At scale the GMG graphene production process will produce large amounts of hydrogen as well.GMG's Managing Director and CEO, Craig Nicol, commented: "We are very excited to move ahead with our next generation technology for graphene production - it is a significant milestone for the company. We expect to see better quality graphene at even lower costs and much higher production rates."GMG's Chairman and Director, Jack Perkowski, commented: "This is the next exciting step before we look to expand to likely North American based expansion plants - where "cookie-cutter" projects can be rolled out with only minor changes for production expansion with lower cost gas and other benefits being in the North American market."About GMG:GMG is an Australian based clean-technology company which develops, makes and sells energy saving and energy storage solutions, enabled by graphene manufactured via in house production process. GMG uses its own proprietary production process to decompose natural gas (i.e. methane) into its natural elements, carbon (as graphene), hydrogen and some residual hydrocarbon gases.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - May 21, 2025) - Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) (OTCQX: FDMIF) (FSE: 9DL0) ("Founders" or the "Company") announces drill core assay results from the Antino Gold Project ("Antino" or "Project") in southeastern Suriname (Figure 1). The Company reports high-grade gold mineralization at Upper Antino including 33.0 metres (m) of 3.50 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) in drilling east of the Main Froyo Shear ("Froyo"). Additional drilling results extend gold mineralization north 125 m, increasing total strike length of Froyo to ~1.7 kilometres (Figure 2).Drilling HighlightsGrowth-focused drilling expands high-grade gold mineralization in parallel structures (Figures 2 & 3):33.0 m of 3.50 g/t Au and 19.0 m of 0.84 g/t Au (FR114)13.0 m of 2.00 g/t Au (FR082)4.0 m of 5.92 g/t Au (FR105)Broad gold zones and 125 m northward extension:41.9 m of 1.06 g/t Au (FR099)12.0 m of 1.51 g/t Au and 22.5 m of 0.50 g/t Au (FR101), extending gold mineralization north in two parallel mineralized zonesColin Padget, President & CEO, commented, "These results clearly demonstrate Upper Antino's growth potential in multiple directions. Gold mineralization continues eastward over substantial intervals while our step-out drilling has successfully expanded the northern boundary by 125 metres. The two broad intervals in hole FR114 align well with our mineralization and structural models and suggest there is potential to 'connect-the-dots' between Froyo and Donut. Additionally, while we have seen some increases in assay turnaround times and have been focusing on certain corporate items, we anticipate releasing additional results from our earlier-stage exploration targets along-side a comprehensive overview in the coming weeks."Drilling continues to expand Upper Antino gold mineralization and Figure 4 provides a 12-month snapshot showing the growth of the mineralized footprint over that time. In this release, drill hole FR114 intersecting 33.0 m of 3.50 g/t Au, is one of several holes planned to target further eastward growth of Froyo gold mineralization and determine if additional parallel zones link Froyo with the Donut target. Drillhole FR101 intercepted two distinct zones of mineralization with the shallower 22.50 m interval of 0.5 g/t Au beginning at 27.60 m and potentially a new shear as the deeper 12 m of 1.51 g/t Au aligns well with the previously reported 8.0 m of 2.08 g/t Au in hole FR095. These are encouraging intercepts indicating additional northward potential and drill holes are planned further north to continue testing these structures.About Founders Metals Inc.Founders Metals is a Canadian-based exploration company focused on advancing the Antino Gold Project located in Suriname, South America, in the heart of the Guiana Shield.

Brisbane, Queensland, Australia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - May 20, 2025) - Graphene Manufacturing Group Ltd. (TSXV: GMG) (OTCQX: GMGMF) ("GMG" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the launch of website www.g-lubricant.com to facilitate direct sale of its energy saving graphene liquid concentrate G® Lubricant, that enhances the performance of diesel and gasoline (petrol) engines. The launch of the website is with a new animation video promoting the ease and benefits of G-Lubricant (Figure 1).Figure 1: www.G-Lubricant.com launch animation videoTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/252715_gmg4!.jpgUnleashing the Power of GrapheneG® Lubricant is a graphene liquid concentrate that can be added to any mineral or synthetic oil used in an internal combustion engine. The amount of graphene in the final lubricant once G® Lubricant is added in is only ~ 1:10,000, with the balance of the concentrate consisting of lubricating base oil. As a result, G® Lubricant can be used safely in any internal combustion engine. Over the past four years, GMG has conducted environmentally controlled testing of G® Lubricant in internal combustion engines monitored and verified by The University of Queensland. In those tests, G® Lubricant has been shown to increase fuel efficiency by up to 8.4% in those diesel engines tested. GMG's test results have been corroborated by similar savings realized by customers over a number of years of field testing in diesel and gasoline/petrol engines.G® Lubricant is currently sold by GMG in different pack sizes on the direct marketing website including a 500 ml litre pack and 8 x 50 ml packs, which can be used to dose 50 litres of engine oil and 8 x 5 liters of engine oil, respectively, to provide improved engine performance. GMG intends to direct market the product to its targeted markets through various pack sizes for direct and bulk use to create awareness of the product and its benefits.In addition, the Company is discussing global sales with potential distributors in different geographic areas and different original equipment manufacturers.Further G® Lubricant Performance TestsGMG carried out further G® Lubricant testing in mid May 2025 - this time in its Company van which was recently professionally serviced - a Mercedes Vito on a third party dyno testing facility (Figure 4) with diesel engine exhaust emissions testing as well (Figure 5).The performance testing showed demonstrated that the diesel engine van running at approximately 2500 rpm, 100 km/hr with approximately 400 Nm torque, the G® Lubricant provided approximately 13% of fuel savings (Figure 2) and a reduction of harmful NOx exhaust emissions of 27% (Figure 3) compared to testing under similar conditions without the use of any G® Lubricant.A second dose of G® Lubricant was added to achieve these results due to the age and condition of the engine which has over 360,000 km of use - hence the total amount of graphene per engine oil was 0.02% (2 in 10,000) by weight - there was a total of 160 ml (2 x 80 ml) of G Lubricant added to the 8 litres of engine oil.Figure 2: Fuel Efficiency Performance Increase from G-LubricantTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/252715_gmg1!.jpgFigure 3: NOx Emissions Performance Increase from G-LubricantTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/252715_gmg2.jpgFigure 4: GMG Company Van in Performance Testing with G-LubricantTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/252715_b0364e8ec47ab84d_011full.jpgFigure 5: Dyno Testing Equipment with Emissions TestingTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/252715_gmg3.jpgAbout GMG:GMG is an Australian based clean-technology company which develops, makes and sells energy saving and energy storage solutions, enabled by graphene manufactured via in house production process.
