[{"type":"text","content":"Uragold Raw Quartz Assays As High As 4N Purity (99.99% SiO2) Prior To Commencement Of Testing(via Thenewswire.ca)\n\n \nMontreal, Quebec, Canada / TheNewswire / March 3, 2016 - Uragold (TSX Venture: UBR) is pleased to announce that pre-testing analysis of its Raw Quartz material has yielded purity levels as high as 4N (99.99%) SiO2. \n\n\n \nBernard Tourillon, Chairman and CEO Of Uragold Stated: \"Using these new results, Theoretical modeling of PyroGenesis PUREVAP(TM) Quartz Vaporization Reactor (QVR) process seem to indicate that transforming Raw Quartz into High Purity Silicon metals with a minimum purity of 4N (99.99 %) is within reach and with anticipated process improvements further testing could achieve purity of 5N (99.999 %) and even further to 6N (99.9999 %)\".\n\n\n \nThe Raw Quartz material was taken from Uragold's 100% Owned Martinville property, located in the Eastern Townships region of Quebec. The analysis completed at the INRS - ETE (Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique, Eau Terre Environnement) laboratory in Quebec City were required for theoretical modeling purposes of PyroGenesis PUREVAP(TM) QVR process.\n\n\n \nMartinville Raw Quartz Results Indicate That Even Before Any Benefaction The Material Meets Industry Standards For Ultra High Purity Quartz.\n\n\n \nUltra High Purity Quartz has become one of today's key strategic minerals with applications in pharmaceutical and high-tech industries, semiconductors, telecommunication, optics, microelectronics, and solar applications.\n\n\n \nThe price of Ultra High Purity Quartz can range from $US 300 (SiO2 99.95 % or 3N + Purity) - \n> $US 5,000 per ton (SiO2 99.997 % or 4N + Purity)1 due to the importance of this mineral to almost every industry in the world.\n\n\n \nBernard Tourillon Further Stated \"Reaching 4N (99.99 +%) SiO2 Purity without any benefaction is outstanding and confirms the exceptional quality of the Martinville Quartz. The Ultra High Purity of our raw quartz will allow Uragold to develop both its Solar Grade Si business and its Ultra High Purity Quartz business, therefore reducing its technology risk while increasing its potential revenues steams.\n\n\n \nTotal Impurities Count < 100 Ppm Measured In Martinville Raw Quartz Assay Results\n\n\n \nThe analytical data measured in the INRS - ETE laboratory confirms the presence of very pu...
