VR Resources Ltd.

February 22, 2024 – TheNewswire - Vancouver, B.C. - VR Resources Ltd. (TSXV:VRR ), ( FSE:5VR ); ( OTC:VRRCF ), the " Company ", or “ VR ”, has just completed its final field visit in preparation for the maiden drill program planned for its New Boston property and polymetallic Cu-Mo-Ag porphyry system in west-central Nevada. Confirmed drill hole designs while standing on recently permitted drill sites in the field; Met with drill contractors to discuss logistics and timing for an efficient drill program; Staked out earth work plans for drill pads and roads with a local equipment operator, and; Verified local water supply, hauling and storage plans for the drill program. From VR’s VP Exploration, Justin Daley, “ It was great to be back in the field at New Boston last week. Despite recent winter storms, the property was free of snow, a testament to the year-round exploration potential there. Detailed plans are now in place with both drillers and local equipment operators for our planned maiden drill program into the East Zone conductor. We are ready! Our mapping continues to show a consistent correlation between surface copper veins and conductivity anomalies across the property, as illustrated by interconnected sulfides from East Zone shown in Photo 1. As such, I encourage our shareholders to review the information available on our website, including the previous two news releases on New Boston in order to fully appreciate the size, amplitude and clarity of the conductivity anomaly at East Zone that we intend to drill (see Photo 2 ). Almost as compelling as the surface copper and conductivity target at East Zone are the field logistics for this drill program. As shown in Photo 3, with highway 95 just 4km from planned drill sites atop copper oxides, and with access to water, accommodations and services nearby, we look forward to running the most efficient and cost-effective drill program that VR has yet planned in Nevada. Stay tuned for further updates as we progress towards drilling. Field Videos A short video from this recent field visit, along with video from several previous site visits are available on the New Boston Project Page on the Company’s website at www.vrr.ca. Also, on the Home Page itself is a 20 minute video review of the New Boston project and drill targets, illustrated in PowerPoint. Technical Information Summary technical and geological information for the Company’s various exploration properties including New Boston is available at the Company’s website at www.vrr.ca. Technical information for this news release has been prepared in accordance with the Canadian regulatory requirements set out in National Instrument 43-101. Justin Daley, P.Geo., VP Exploration and a non-independent Qualified Person oversees and/or participates in all aspects of the Company’s mineral exploration projects, and the content of this news release has been reviewed on behalf of the Company by the CEO, Dr. Michael Gunning, P.Geo., a non-independent Qualified Person. About the New Boston Property Location New Boston is within the Walker Lane mineral belt and structural province in west-central Nevada. More specifically, it is within the co-spatial belts of Jurassic - and Cretaceous-aged copper and moly porphyry deposits, including the Yerington camp and Hall deposit. New Boston is located in the Garfield Range in Mineral County, approximately 150 km southeast of Reno. Vegetation is sparse in the range; outcrop or colluvium predominate on the property itself, with quaternary cover developed off its eastern border and eastern flank of the range. The property location facilitates cost-effective exploration, year-round. Access is from the nearby town of Luning, located just 5 km to the east on State Highway 95 connecting Reno and Las Vegas. The property itself is criss-crossed by a myriad of active, historic trails and roads which are reachable from the highway. Property Description The New Boston property is large: it consists of 77 claims in one contiguous block approximately 3 x 5km in size and covering 583 hectares in total (1,441 acres). It covers the entire extent of the known copper-moly-silver porphyry-skarn mineral system exposed on surface between Blue Ribbon and East Zone, and its inferred down-dip potential to the north. The property is on federal land administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). There are no state or federal land use designations, or privately-owned land which impede access to the property; nor is the property within the BLM’s broadly defined area of sage grouse protection. The property is owned 100% by VR. There are no underlying annual lease payments; nor are there any joint venture or back-in interests. The vendor of the property retains a royalty. About VR Resources VR is an established junior exploration company based in Vancouver (TSX.V: VRR; Frankfurt: 5VR; OTCQB: VRRCF). VR evaluates, explores and advances large-scale, blue-sky opportunities in copper, gold and critical metals in Nevada, USA, and Ontario, Canada. The Company has also made Canada’s newest diamond discovery in northern Ontario, and controls a new field of kimberlite targets around it. VR applies modern exploration technologies and leverages in-house experience and expertise in greenfields exploration to large-footprint mineral systems in underexplored areas/districts. The foundation of VR is the proven track record of its Board in early-stage exploration, discovery and M&A. The Company is well-financed for its mineral exploration and corporate obligations. VR owns its properties outright and evaluates new opportunities on an ongoing basis, whether by staking or acquisition. ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS: “Michael H.

New Report Shows Impact of Pandemic-Era Funds for Students Experiencing Homelessness, Calls for an Additional Year for Schools to Use Funds

SchoolHouse Connection

This week, national non-profit SchoolHouse Connection released “Overlooked and Almost Out of Time,” a report showing the impact and reach of pandemic-era relief funds for students experiencing homelessness, as well as the challenges that are preventing schools from using these funds at a time of heightened need. Congress provided the funds, known as the American Rescue Plan – Homeless Children and Youth (ARP-HCY) funds, through a bipartisan amendment to the American Rescue Plan Act, in March 2021. ARP-HCY funds must be obligated by September 2024. “ARP-HCY funds are changing lives – even saving lives. But the limited timeframe for using the funds, combined with administrative restrictions, have created barriers to using funds. Now time is running out,” said Barbara Duffield, Executive Director of SchoolHouse Connection. “Urgent action is needed so that we don’t miss this historic opportunity to help students break the cycle of homelessness through education. We urge Congress to extend the ARP-HCY obligation deadline for one more year, and we implore all education agencies to prioritize ARP-HCY funds.” The report is based on a survey of more than 1,400 school district homeless liaisons from across all 50 states and the District of Columbia, as well as on analyses of federal data. The report found: Child and youth homelessness has increased since the pandemic, creating a greater need for targeted support for students experiencing homelessness. The number of school districts receiving dedicated funding to support students experiencing homelessness has more than doubled as a result of ARP-HCY funding, reaching over half of all school districts nationwide. School district homeless liaisons report many positive impacts of ARP-HCY funds, including increased school stability, identification, and attendance. Still, despite these positive impacts, the report found: One quarter of school district homeless liaisons express concerns about meeting spending deadlines due to administrative hurdles and limited time. An additional 25% of liaisons were unaware they received ARP-HCY funds, potentially making it difficult to meet spending deadlines. Even though liaisons are legally responsible for identifying and supporting students experiencing homelessness, they are often excluded from key decisions about use of funding. Public schools are a critical source of help for children and youth experiencing homelessness, offering stability, services, and the education necessary to permanently escape homelessness and secure a brighter future. Yet homelessness creates barriers to education – many of which can be directly removed with ARP-HCY funds (for example, transportation, store cards to meet basic needs, and short-term emergency motel stays). In addition to administrative barriers getting in the way of effectively using ARP-HCY funds, educational agencies have prioritized spending the $122 billion in ARP Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief funds at the expense of a focus on ARP-HCY dollars. SchoolHouse Connection’s analysis shows that states have spent ARP ESSER nearly 50% faster than ARP-HCY funds, despite the fact that ARP-HCY funds are less than 1% of ARP ESSER funds. The report lays out recommendations for Congress, the U.S. Department of Education, state and local education leaders, and state legislatures. “While the pandemic is officially over, the crisis of homelessness is unabated and growing. Leadership and action is needed at every level — federal, state, and local – to ensure that these funds are used effectively now and sustained into the future,” Duffield said. A link to the report, including methodology, can be found here. About SchoolHouse Connection SchoolHouse Connection is a national non-profit organization working to overcome homelessness through education. We provide strategic advocacy and practical assistance in partnership with schools, early childhood programs, institutions of higher education, service providers, families, and youth. Our vision is that children and youth experiencing homelessness have full access to quality learning, birth through higher education, so they will never be homeless as adults, and the next generation will never be homeless.

Situação atual da legislação de jogos de azar no Brasil

AM Europe

Durante décadas, o cenário de jogos de azar no Brasil tem sido uma curiosa mistura de tradição, ilegalidade e progresso recente. Embora a proibição geral esteja em vigor desde 1941, algumas exceções e complexidades criaram um cenário único. Vamos nos aprofundar nos principais aspectos da legislação de jogos de azar no Brasil: Uma longa sombra: a proibição de 1941 A base das leis de jogos de azar do Brasil está no Decreto-Lei nº 3.688/1941, que proíbe amplamente os "jogos de azar". Isso inclui cassinos, máquinas caça-níqueis e jogos de azar on-line. No entanto, a lei deixa espaço para interpretação, principalmente no que diz respeito a: Habilidade vs. Chance: O pôquer, por exemplo, desfruta de uma área cinzenta legal devido ao seu componente de habilidade percebido. Exceções sancionadas pelo Estado: As loterias operadas pela Caixa Econômica Federal e as apostas em corridas de cavalos sob regulamentos específicos permanecem legais. A ascensão do Jogo do Bicho: um gigante não oficial Apesar da proibição, um gigante do jogo informal prospera: o Jogo do Bicho. Esse jogo de números, baseado em nomes de animais, opera fora da estrutura legal, destacando as limitações da legislação atual, você pode saber mais em cassinov.com. Panorama recente: Dezembro de 2023: Senado e Câmara dos Deputados aprovaram o Projeto de Lei 3.626/2023, que regulamenta as apostas esportivas e cassinos online. Aguardando sanção presidencial, prevista para breve. Principais pontos: Tributação: 12% sobre GGR, 15% sobre ganhos acima de R$ 2.112 Licenças: taxa de R$ 30 milhões, validade de 3 anos Restrição de idade: 18+ Situação legal atual: Proibição geral: Grande parte das atividades de jogo segue ilegal devido à Lei de Contravenções Penais de 1941. Penalidade: Multa de até R$ 200.000 para jogadores e operadores. Exceções: Loterias estaduais: Caixa Econômica Federal Corridas de cavalo: Jockey Club Brasileiro Poker: Considerado jogo de habilidade, potencialmente legal. Apostas sociais/fantasias: Não regulamentadas, mas populares. Aviso importante: Participar de jogos de azar ilegais no Brasil acarreta riscos potenciais. Este artigo tem fins informativos e não constitui aconselhamento jurídico. Sempre consulte um advogado qualificado para orientações sobre questões específicas relacionadas a jogos de azar no Brasil. Embora o cenário legal do jogo no Brasil esteja evoluindo, é crucial ressaltar que a maior parte das atividades ainda é proibida. É fundamental cautela e consulta a um profissional qualificado antes de se envolver em qualquer jogo de azar no país. Contact Details Carlos Correia +55 21 4938-7350 carlos@cassinov.com

Elixir Energy identifies significant gas resource at Daydream 2

ELIXIR ENERGY LIMITED

Elixir Energy Ltd (ASX:EXR OTC:ELXPF) managing director Neil Young sits down with Jonathan Jackson in the Proactive studio to discuss the identification of a significant gas resource at Daydream 2, part of its Grandis Gas Project in Queensland. The company has completed desorption analysis on coal cuttings, with samples used to analyse the gas content of the hydrocarbons using traditional coal bed methane methods. The company revealed a new prospective source of gas, having been adsorbed into the coals, averaging about 23 cubic metres per tonne in their raw state, which translates to 34 cubic metres per tonne minus dry ash. It also re-assessed its prospective resource to include the adsorbed gas element, increasing the total un-risked prospective resources (2U) in ATP 2044 to 3.6 trillion cubic feet of gas. The company is now working to convert the resources into discovered contingent resources, with plenty of newsflow expected over the coming weeks. “We are naturally pleased to announce this very substantial increase in our already very large prospective resources in the coals in ATP 2044," Young said. "To our knowledge, conducting coal content analysis on deep formations in this fashion was a first in Australia and, as such, is a tribute to the innovative mind set of our internal team and supportive service providers."
