In addition, the Company will be changing its TSX Venture stock symbol to HPQ. The exact date for the retirement of the old symbol and the start of trading under the symbol HPQ has not yet been finalized by the exchange but is expect shortly. It will be preceded by the issuance of a bulletin by the Exchange announcing the change. REASON FOR NAME AND STOCK SYMBOL CHANGE On March 11, 2016, the Company announced " Uragold Plans To Issue Dividend To Shareholders Via Spin Out Of Gold Projects" . The purpose of the spin out was to segregate the company's valuable but diverse holdings to unlock even greater value for shareholders as follows: High Purity Quartz & Solar Grade Silicon Metal Process - These assets and operations will remain within HPQ Silicon Resources (formerly "Uragold Bay"). The Beauce Gold Project - This asset will be spun out into a new publicly listed vehicle, with details to be announced in the very near future. Shareholders of HPQ Silicon Resources (formerly "Uragold Bay") will receive shares in the new company. Upon completion, shareholders of the company will own shares in two exciting companies, each of which will independently focus and advance their respective assets to create even further shareholder value. A NEW CORPORATE IDENTITY "Our new corporate identity represents another milestone in the Company's transformation into a vertically integrated and diversified High Value Specialty Materials Company. We will be exclusively focused on becoming a High Purity Quartz Supplier and the Cleanest, Greenest and Lowest Cost Producer of Solar Grade Silicon Metal, thanks to our exclusive worldwide licenses to use PyroGenesis' PUREVAP(TM) Quartz Vaporization Reactor, ("QVR") ," said Bernard J Tourillon Chairman and CEO. "We plan to reveal a more complete view of the HPQ Silicon brand and an updated website in the comings weeks but wanted to provide advance notice of these changes to our valuable shareholder base." About HPQ Silicon HPQ Silicon Resources Inc (Formally Uragold Bay Resources) is a TSX-V listed junior exploration company planning to become a vertically integrated and diversified High Value Specialty Materials Company. Our Business model is focused on developing unique projects that can generate high yield returns and significant free cash flow within a short time line. High Value Specialty Materials In September 2015, PyroGenesis announced that it had filed for a provisional patent for the PUREVAPTM Quartz Vaporization Reactor (QVR) process, which it noted was able to produce silicon, at a lower cost, while generating less CO2 emissions than current processes. On April 19, 2016, PyroGenesis announced that early test results of the PUREVAPTM QVR process have demonstrated that it can transform high purity quartz into silicon metal. The PUREVAPTM QVR validation program his now in its second stage whereby the operational parameters of the reactor are adjusted in order to achieve the transformation of HPQ Silicon Quartz into Solar Grade Purity Si. On June 29, 2016, HPQ Silicon announced that first pass analytical process confirms the ability of the PUREVAP TM process to create high purity silicon metal exceeding 99.9% and that samples are to be sent to a specialized laboratory in the United States to determine the precise purity levels of the Silicon Metal. HPQ Silicon , with its worldwide exclusive usage of PyroGenesis' PUREVAP(TM) QVR, is endeavouring to become a vertically integrated Silicon Metal (98.5% Si), High Purity Silicon Metal (99.99% Si), Solar Grade Silicon Metal (6N Purity / 99.9999% Si) and/or Higher (9N Purity / 99.9999999% Si) producer. The PUREVAP(TM) QVR process's big advantage is its one step direct transformation of Quartz into High Purity Silicon Metal Solar Grade Silicon Metal and/or Higher Purity product, thereby potentially allowing Uragold to manufacture high value material for the same operating cost presently being paid by traditional producers to make Metallurgical Grade Si (98.5% Si) using the traditional arc furnace approach. The Science Behind PyroGenesis PUREVAP(TM) QVR Process Is Solid : -Plasma arc based process can and has transformed High Purity Quartz into Mg Si. -Plasma arc based process can and is being used to purify Mg Si into higher value materials such as Sg Si. -Finally, refining Mg Si using an electron-beam furnace in a high vacuum-processing environment has proven the concept of the elimination of elements whose vapor pressures are higher than that of silicon. What is unique and ground breaking is the combination of these three proven processes into one step. A Green And Clean Company HPQ Silicon Uragold, with its worldwide exclusive usage of PyroGenesis' PUREVAP(TM) QVR will also be implementing a process to make Sg Si, which is estimated to generate 14.1 kg CO2 eq/Kg SG Si, versus the 54.0 kg CO2 eq/Kg SG Si of emissions generated by the Siemens process (90% of the present production process). This represents 75% fewer greenhouse gas emissions, which is justified by elimination of the emissions emanating from the use of chemicals, as well as, energy consumption from the additional purification step. High Purity Quartz Properties HPQ Silicon is also the largest holder of High Purity Quartz properties in Quebec, with over 3,500 Ha under claims. Despite the abundance of quartz, very few deposits are suitable for high purity applications. High Purity Quartz supplies are tightening, prices are rising, and exponential growth is forecast. Quartz from the Roncevaux property successfully passed rigorous testing protocols of a major silicon metal producer confirming that our material is highly suited for their silicon metal production.
