LKA Gold Incorporated (LKAI) declares that it recently executed an “Exploration Agreement & Option” with Kinross Gold U.S.A., Inc. for the purpose of expanding its Golden Wonder Mine exploration beyond LKA’s active workings.
The Agreement, amongst its other provisions, grants Kinross a five-year exclusive right to explore, and if successful, develop any mineral resource(s) containing 50,000 or more ounces of gold on LKA’s properties above and adjacent to the Golden Wonder Mine located near Lake City, Colorado. If such a resource, or multiple resources, is discovered, LKA will have the option to enter into a joint venture with Kinross for the purpose of developing such resource(s) by reimbursing 40.25% of Kinross’ exploration expenses in return for a 35% interest in the joint venture. If a joint venture is formed, LKA’s contribution will also comprise all of LKA’s Golden Wonder properties.
During the five-year exploration period, Kinross will, but is not obligated to, conduct exploration, at its own expense, while LKA will retain the exclusive right to continue exploration and development of any resources within a “Carve-Out Area” which is LKA’s current area of operation.
Kinross Gold Corporation, together with its auxiliaries, engages in the acquisition, exploration, and development of gold bearing properties. It is involved in mining and processing gold and silver ores.
Shares of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited (NYSE:TEVA), inclined 3.11% to $63.29, during its last trading session.
Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited, and Xenon Pharmaceuticals Inc. (XENE) stated top line results from the double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2b study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of topically applied TV-45070 (4% and 8% w/w ointment) in patients with chronic pain due to osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee.
TV-45070 is a small molecule inhibitor of the sodium channel Nav1.7 and other sodium channels, counting those that are expressed in the pain-sensing peripheral nervous system. Results from this trial showed that TV-45070 4% and 8% did not demonstrate statistically noteworthy difference from placebo in efficacy endpoints of reductions in pain due to OA.
TV-45070 did demonstrate a favorable safety and tolerability profile, with no drug-related serious adverse events. This is important given the ongoing Phase 2b study of TV-45070 in post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN). The most common adverse events were application site dermal skin reactions which were mostly mild and less frequent than seen with other topical analgesics. There were no cardiac or CNS safety issues.
Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited develops, manufactures, markets, and distributes generic, specialty, and other pharmaceutical products worldwide. The company operates in two segments, Generic Medicines and Specialty Medicines. The Generic Medicines segment offers generic or branded generic medicines; specialized products, such as sterile products, hormones, narcotics, high-potency drugs, and cytotoxic substances; and active pharmaceutical ingredients.
