sca Quantitative selection of sample structures in small-angle scattering using Bayesian methods By journals.iucr.org Published On :: 2024-06-18 Small-angle scattering (SAS) is a key experimental technique for analyzing nanoscale structures in various materials. In SAS data analysis, selecting an appropriate mathematical model for the scattering intensity is critical, as it generates a hypothesis of the structure of the experimental sample. Traditional model selection methods either rely on qualitative approaches or are prone to overfitting. This paper introduces an analytical method that applies Bayesian model selection to SAS measurement data, enabling a quantitative evaluation of the validity of mathematical models. The performance of the method is assessed through numerical experiments using artificial data for multicomponent spherical materials, demonstrating that this proposed analysis approach yields highly accurate and interpretable results. The ability of the method to analyze a range of mixing ratios and particle size ratios for mixed components is also discussed, along with its precision in model evaluation by the degree of fitting. The proposed method effectively facilitates quantitative analysis of nanoscale sample structures in SAS, which has traditionally been challenging, and is expected to contribute significantly to advancements in a wide range of fields.

sca Resonant neutron scattering lengths By journals.iucr.org Published On :: 2024-07-17 Unlike most of the periodic table, many rare-earth elements display considerable resonant scattering for thermal neutrons. Although this property is accompanied by strong neutron absorption, modern high-intensity neutron sources make diffraction experiments possible with these elements. Computation of scattering intensities is accomplished by fitting the variation in resonant scattering lengths (b0, b' and b'') to a semi-empirical Breit–Wigner formalism, which can be evaluated over the range of neutron energies useful for diffraction, typically E = 10–600 meV; λ = 0.4–2.8 Å (with good extrapolation to longer wavelengths).

sca Revealing nanoscale sorption mechanisms of gases in a highly porous silica aerogel By journals.iucr.org Published On :: 2024-08-19 Geological formations provide a promising environment for the long-term and short-term storage of gases, including carbon dioxide, hydrogen and hydrocarbons, controlled by the rock-specific small-scale pore structure. This study investigates the nanoscale structure and gas uptake in a highly porous silica aerogel (a synthetic proxy for natural rocks) using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and small-angle and ultra-small-angle neutron scattering with a tracer of deuterated methane (CD4) at pressures up to 1000 bar. The results show that the adsorption of CD4 in the porous silica matrix is scale dependent. The pore space of the silica aerogel is fully accessible to the invading gas, which quickly equilibrates with the external pressure and shows no condensation on the sub-nanometre scale. In the 2.5–50 nm pore size region a classical two-phase adsorption behaviour is observed. The structure of the aerogel returns to its original state after the CD4 pressure has been released.

sca Laboratory-based 3D X-ray standing-wave analysis of nanometre-scale gratings By journals.iucr.org Published On :: 2024-08-19 The increasing structural complexity and downscaling of modern nanodevices require continuous development of structural characterization techniques that support R&D and manufacturing processes. This work explores the capability of laboratory characterization of periodic planar nanostructures using 3D X-ray standing waves as a promising method for reconstructing atomic profiles of planar nanostructures. The non-destructive nature of this metrology technique makes it highly versatile and particularly suitable for studying various types of samples. Moreover, it eliminates the need for additional sample preparation before use and can achieve sub-nanometre reconstruction resolution using widely available laboratory setups, as demonstrated on a diffractometer equipped with a microfocus X-ray tube with a copper anode.

sca The promise of GaAs 200 in small-angle neutron scattering for higher resolution By journals.iucr.org Published On :: 2024-08-27 The Q resolution in Bonse–Hart double-crystal diffractometers is determined for a given Bragg angle by the value of the crystallographic structure factor. To date, the reflections Si 220 or Si 111 have been used exclusively in neutron scattering, which provide resolutions for triple-bounce crystals of about 2 × 10−5 Å−1 (FWHM). The Darwin width of the GaAs 200 reflection is about a factor of 10 smaller, offering the possibility of a Q resolution of 2 × 10−6 Å−1 provided crystals of sufficient quality are available. This article reports a feasibility study with single-bounce GaAs 200, yielding a Q resolution of 4.6 × 10−6 Å−1, six times superior in comparison with a Si 220 setup. Full Article text
sca Pushing the limits of accessible length scales via a modified Porod analysis in small-angle neutron scattering on ordered systems By journals.iucr.org Published On :: 2024-08-27 Small-angle neutron scattering is a widely used technique to study large-scale structures in bulk samples. The largest accessible length scale in conventional Bragg scattering is determined by the combination of the longest available neutron wavelength and smallest resolvable scattering angle. A method is presented that circumvents this limitation and is able to extract larger length scales from the low-q power-law scattering using a modification of the well known Porod law connecting the scattered intensity of randomly distributed objects to their specific surface area. It is shown that in the special case of a highly aligned domain structure the specific surface area extracted from the modified Porod law can be used to determine specific length scales of the domain structure. The analysis method is applied to study the micrometre-sized domain structure found in the intermediate mixed state of the superconductor niobium. The analysis approach allows the range of accessible length scales to be extended from 1 µm to up to 40 µm using a conventional small-angle neutron scattering setup. Full Article text
sca The AUREX cell: a versatile operando electrochemical cell for studying catalytic materials using X-ray diffraction, total scattering and X-ray absorption spectroscopy under working conditions By journals.iucr.org Published On :: 2024-09-20 Understanding the structure–property relationship in electrocatalysts under working conditions is crucial for the rational design of novel and improved catalytic materials. This paper presents the Aarhus University reactor for electrochemical studies using X-rays (AUREX) operando electrocatalytic flow cell, designed as an easy-to-use versatile setup with a minimal background contribution and a uniform flow field to limit concentration polarization and handle gas formation. The cell has been employed to measure operando total scattering, diffraction and absorption spectroscopy as well as simultaneous combinations thereof on a commercial silver electrocatalyst for proof of concept. This combination of operando techniques allows for monitoring of the short-, medium- and long-range structure under working conditions, including an applied potential, liquid electrolyte and local reaction environment. The structural transformations of the Ag electrocatalyst are monitored with non-negative matrix factorization, linear combination analysis, the Pearson correlation coefficient matrix, and refinements in both real and reciprocal space. Upon application of an oxidative potential in an Ar-saturated aqueous 0.1 M KHCO3/K2CO3 electrolyte, the face-centered cubic (f.c.c.) Ag gradually transforms first to a trigonal Ag2CO3 phase, followed by the formation of a monoclinic Ag2CO3 phase. A reducing potential immediately reverts the structure to the Ag (f.c.c.) phase. Following the electrochemical-reaction-induced phase transitions is of fundamental interest and necessary for understanding and improving the stability of electrocatalysts, and the operando cell proves a versatile setup for probing this. In addition, it is demonstrated that, when studying electrochemical reactions, a high energy or short exposure time is needed to circumvent beam-induced effects. Full Article text
sca Pinhole small-angle neutron scattering based approach for desmearing slit ultra-small-angle neutron scattering data By journals.iucr.org Published On :: 2024-09-25 Presented here is an effective approach to desmearing slit ultra-small-angle neutron scattering (USANS) data, based on complementary small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) measurements, leading to a seamless merging of these data sets. The study focuses on the methodological aspects of desmearing USANS data, which can then be presented in the conventional manner of SANS, enabling a broader pool of data analysis methods. The key innovation lies in the use of smeared SANS data for extrapolating slit USANS, offering a self-consistent integrand function for desmearing with Lake's iterative method. The proposed approach is validated through experimental data on porous anodized aluminium oxide membranes, showcasing its applicability and benefits. The findings emphasize the importance of accurate desmearing for merging USANS and SANS data in the crossover q region, which is particularly crucial for complex scattering patterns.

sca Characterization of sub-micrometre-sized voids in fixed human brain tissue using scanning X-ray microdiffraction By journals.iucr.org Published On :: 2024-10-01 Using a 5 µm-diameter X-ray beam, we collected scanning X-ray microdiffraction in both the small-angle (SAXS) and the wide-angle (WAXS) regimes from thin sections of fixed human brain tissue from Alzheimer's subjects. The intensity of scattering in the SAXS regime of these patterns exhibits essentially no correlation with the observed intensity in the WAXS regime, indicating that the structures responsible for these two portions of the diffraction patterns, which reflect different length scales, are distinct. SAXS scattering exhibits a power-law behavior in which the log of intensity decreases linearly with the log of the scattering angle. The slope of the log–log curve is roughly proportional to the intensity in the SAXS regime and, surprisingly, inversely proportional to the intensity in the WAXS regime. We interpret these observations as being due to the presence of sub-micrometre-sized voids formed during dehydration of the fixed tissue. The SAXS intensity is due largely to scattering from these voids, while the WAXS intensity derives from the secondary structures of macromolecular material surrounding the voids. The ability to detect and map the presence of voids within thin sections of fixed tissue has the potential to provide novel information on the degradation of human brain tissue in neurodegenerative diseases.

sca Correlative X-ray micro-nanotomography with scanning electron microscopy at the Advanced Light Source By journals.iucr.org Published On :: 2024-10-29 Geological samples are inherently multi-scale. Understanding their bulk physical and chemical properties requires characterization down to the nano-scale. A powerful technique to study the three-dimensional microstructure is X-ray tomography, but it lacks information about the chemistry of samples. To develop a methodology for measuring the multi-scale 3D microstructure of geological samples, correlative X-ray micro- and nanotomography were performed on two rocks followed by scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) analysis. The study was performed in five steps: (i) micro X-ray tomography was performed on rock sample cores, (ii) samples for nanotomography were prepared using laser milling, (iii) nanotomography was performed on the milled sub-samples, (iv) samples were mounted and polished for SEM analysis and (v) SEM imaging and compositional mapping was performed on micro and nanotomography samples for complimentary information. Correlative study performed on samples of serpentine and basalt revealed multiscale 3D structures involving both solid mineral phases and pore networks. Significant differences in the volume fraction of pores and mineral phases were also observed dependent on the imaging spatial resolution employed. This highlights the necessity for the application of such a multiscale approach for the characterization of complex aggregates such as rocks. Information acquired from the chemical mapping of different phases was also helpful in segmentation of phases that did not exhibit significant contrast in X-ray imaging. Adoption of the protocol used in this study can be broadly applied to 3D imaging studies being performed at the Advanced Light Source and other user facilities. Full Article text
sca High-transmission spectrometer for rapid resonant inelastic soft X-ray scattering (rRIXS) maps By journals.iucr.org Published On :: 2024-09-30 The design and first results of a high-transmission soft X-ray spectrometer operated at the X-SPEC double-undulator beamline of the KIT Light Source are presented. As a unique feature, particular emphasis was placed on optimizing the spectrometer transmission by maximizing the solid angle and the efficiencies of spectrometer gratings and detector. A CMOS detector, optimized for soft X-rays, allows for quantum efficiencies of 90% or above over the full energy range of the spectrometer, while simultaneously offering short readout times. Combining an optimized control system at the X-SPEC beamline with continuous energy scans (as opposed to step scans), the high transmission of the spectrometer, and the fast readout of the CMOS camera, enable the collection of entire rapid resonant inelastic soft X-ray scattering maps in less than 1 min. Series of spectra at a fixed energy can be taken with a frequency of up to 5 Hz. Furthermore, the use of higher-order reflections allows a very wide energy range (45 to 2000 eV) to be covered with only two blazed gratings, while keeping the efficiency high and the resolving power E/ΔE above 1500 and 3000 with low- and high-energy gratings, respectively.

sca Co. Completes Earn-In to Form JV at Advanced Stage Uranium Project in Athabasca Basin By www.streetwisereports.com Published On :: Thu, 24 Oct 2024 00:00:00 PST Source: Streetwise Reports 10/24/2024 Skyharbour Resources Ltd. (SYH:TSX.V; SYHBF:OTCQX; SC1P:FSE) has completed its earn-in requirements for a 51% interest at the Russell Lake Uranium Project in the central core of Canada's Eastern Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan. This comes as the need for more net-zero power is sparking a rebirth of the nuclear industry.Skyharbour Resources Ltd. (SYH:TSX.V; SYHBF:OTCQX; SC1P:FSE) announced that it has completed its earn-in requirements for a 51% interest at its co-flagship Russell Lake Uranium Project in the central core of Canada's Eastern Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan. The company and Rio Tinto have formed a joint venture (JV) to further explore the property, with Skyharbour holding 51% ownership interest and Rio Tinto holding 49%. This summer, Skyharbour announced that in the first phase of drilling it had found what was historically the best uranium intercept mineralization at the project when hole RSL24-02 at the recently identified Fork Target returned a 2.5-meter-wide intercept of 0.721% U3O8 at a relatively shallow depth of 338.1 meters, including 2.99% U3O8 over 0.5 meters at 339.6 meters. The second phase of drilling included three holes totaling 1,649 meters, with emphasis "at the MZE (M-Zone Extension) target, approximately 10 km northeast of the Fork target, identified prospective faulted graphitic gneiss accompanied by anomalous sandstone and basement geochemistry," Skyharbour said. "The discovery of multi-percent, high-grade, sandstone-hosted uranium mineralization at a new target is a major breakthrough in the discovery process at Russell — something that hasn't been seen before at the project with the potential to quickly grow with more drilling," President and Chief Executive Officer Jordan Trimble said at the time. ANT Survey, Upcoming Drilling Program The company also announced on Thursday that it had completed an Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) survey in preparation for further drilling at the Russell Lake Project, set to commence in the fall. The survey used Fleet Space Technologies' Exosphere technology to acquire 3D passive seismic velocity data over the highly prospective Grayling and Fork target areas, where previous drilling has intersected high-grade uranium mineralization. "The ANT technology has been successfully employed in mapping significant sandstone and basement structures and associated alteration zones related to hydrothermal fluids pathways in the Athabasca Basin," the company said. Results from the survey will be used to further refine drill targets for the upcoming drilling program. Skyharbour is fully funded and permitted for the follow-up fall drill campaign consisting of approximately 7,000 metres of drilling at its main Russell and Moore Projects, with 2,500 meters of drilling at Moore and 4,500 meters of drilling at Russell. A Great Neighborhood Russell Lake is a large, advanced-stage uranium exploration property totaling 73,294 hectares strategically located between Cameco's Key Lake and McArthur River projects and Denison's Wheeler River Project to the west, and Skyharbour's Moore project to the east. "Skyharbour's acquisition of a majority interest in Russell Lake creates a large, nearly contiguous block of highly prospective uranium claims totaling 108,999 hectares between the Russell Lake and the Moore uranium projects," the company said. Most of the historical exploration at Russell Lake was conducted before 2010, prior to the discovery of several major deposits in/around the Athabasca Basin, Skyharbour said. Notable exploration targets on the property include the Grayling Zone, the M-Zone Extension target, the Little Man Lake target, the Christie Lake target, the Fox Lake Trail target and the newly identified Fork Zone target. "More than 35 kilometers of largely untested prospective conductors in areas of low magnetic intensity also exist on the property," the company noted. In an updated research note in July, Analyst Sid Rajeev of Fundamental Research Corp. wrote that Skyharbour "owns one of the largest portfolios among uranium juniors in the Athabasca Basin." "Given the highly vulnerable uranium supply chain, we anticipate continued consolidation within the sector," wrote Rajeev, who rated the stock a Buy with a fair value estimate of CA$1.21 per share. "Additionally, the rapidly growing demand for energy from the AI (artificial intelligence) industry is likely to accelerate the adoption of nuclear power, which should, in turn, spotlight uranium juniors in the coming months." The Catalyst: Uranium is 'BACK!' The growth of AI, new data centers, electric vehicle (EV) adoption, and the need for more net-zero power means more nuclear energy and the uranium needed to fuel it. Uranium prices are expected to move higher by the end of this quarter, when Trading Economics' global macro models and analyses forecast uranium to trade at US$84.15 per pound, Nuclear Newswire reported on Oct. 3. In another year, the site estimates that the metal will trade at US$91.80 per pound. Just last month, Microsoft Corp. (MSFT:NASDAQ) announced a deal with Constellation Energy Group (CEG:NYSE) to restart and buy all of the power from one of the shut-down reactors at its infamous Three Mile Island plant in Pennsylvania and the Biden administration also announced a plan to restart the Palisades plant in Michigan. Chris Temple, publisher of The National Investor, recently noted that with the Three Mile Island deal, "uranium/nuclear power is BACK!"[OWNERSHIP_CHART-6026] "I've watched as the news has continued to point to uranium being in the early innings of this new bull market," Temple wrote. "Yet the markets have been yawning . . . until now." Ownership and Share Structure Management, insiders, and close business associates own approximately 5% of Skyharbour. According to Reuters, President and CEO Trimble owns 1.6%, and Director David Cates owns 0.70%. Institutional, corporate, and strategic investors own approximately 55% of the company. Denison Mines owns 6.3%, Rio Tinto owns 2.0%, Extract Advisors LLC owns 9%, Alps Advisors Inc. owns 9.91%, Mirae Asset Global Investments (U.S.A) L.L.C. owns 6.29%, Sprott Asset Management L.P. owns 1.5%, and Incrementum AG owns 1.18%, Reuters reported. There are 182.53 million shares outstanding with 178 million free float traded shares, while the company has a market cap of CA$88.53 million and trades in a 52-week range of CA$0.31 and CA$0.64.

sca Renewable Power Co. Posts Strongest Fiscal Year Thus Far By www.streetwisereports.com Published On :: Tue, 05 Nov 2024 00:00:00 PST Source: Streetwise Reports 11/05/2024 Operationally, the company's renewable energy generation was up 397% year over year. Discover the many potential catalysts for the stock.Revolve Renewable Power Corp. (TSXV:REVV; OTCQB:REVVF) released its strongest financial results since going public in 2022, those for fiscal year 2024 (FY24) ended June 30, 2024, the company announced in a news release. "FY24 marked significant progress for the company as it continues its transition to an owner and operator of renewable energy projects, incorporating a focus on building long-term recurring revenues and cash flow for the business," the release noted. This company, headquartered in British Columbia, develops utility-scale solar, wind, hydro, and battery storage projects in North America. The Revolve Renewable Business Solutions division installs and operates sub-20-megawatt, behind-the-meter distributed generation assets. FY24 revenue of US$6.7 million (US$6.7M) exceeded guidance by 35% and surpassed FY23 revenue by 509%. Significant contributors to total revenue for this latest fiscal year were deferred revenues and milestone payments of US$4.25M from the sale of the Bouse and Parker projects to ENGIE. Completion of the WindRiver Power Corp. acquisition in February added $671,738 of total revenue. In the future, WindRiver business is projected to generate recurring revenue of US$1.8M on a 12-month basis. Adjusted EBITDA in FY24 also was up year over year (YOY), at US$2.7M versus US$1.5M of guidance and (US$2.1M) in FY23. The gross margin in FY24 was strong at 96%. This was due to increased recurring revenues from the distributed generation portfolio, low operating costs of the rooftop solar projects therein, the addition of operating utility-scale projects in Canada, and sale proceeds from utility-scale projects in the U.S. FY24 resulted in a net income of US$2.6M, whereas FY23 saw a net loss of US$2.3M. As for the balance sheet, at FY24's end, Revolve had US$3.2M in cash. Total liabilities were US$10M, up from US$2.6M in FY23 due to nonrecourse debt taken on via the WindRiver acquisition plus additional loans granted by RE Royalties Ltd., a Canadian royalty finance company, throughout FY24. Operational Progress Made Operationally, in FY24, according to the release, Revolve generated 8,048,729 kilowatt-hours (8,048,729 kWh) of renewable energy, up 397% from 1,618,456 kWH the year before. The main drivers were continuing output from the company's operational distributed generation portfolio and power produced at the Box Springs wind farm. During the 15 months between July 1, 2023, and Oct. 31, 2024, Revolve added of 76.1 megawatts (76.1 MW) net of development hydro projects in Canada through the WindRiver acquisition and 480 MW of new greenfield development projects in Canada and the U.S. These took the total of Revolve's utility-scale projects under development to 3,015 MW. The company made significant progress on its 20 megawatt (20 MW)/80 MWh Vernal BESS battery storage project and 49.5 MW Primus wind projects, now in the late stage of development and expected to reach ready-to-build status at the end of 2025 (2025E). Revolve is still building its two distributed generation assets in Mexico, totaling 3.45 MW. Permitting work continues on the 3 MW CHP project continues, and the final commissioning of the 450-KW-peak rooftop solar project is taking place. The distributed generation project pipeline remains at about 150 MW, and efforts are ongoing to sign additional power purchase agreements for new projects from it. Also, Revolve recently announced its acquisition of a 30-MW-peak solar development project in Alberta, Canada, and expects a 20-MW-peak first phase will be ready for construction by 2025E. Independent Power Producer Revolve is a revenue-generating, renewable-focused independent power producer formed in 2012 to capitalize on the growing global demand for renewable power, according to its October 2024 Corporate Presentation. The company began as solely a developer of utility-scale projects, a line of business that provides investors access to higher returns. Currently, the company has two projects under construction, the ones in Mexico and 3,000-plus MW worth of projects in development in Canada, the U.S., and Mexico. To date, Revolve has developed and sold more than 1,550 MW of utility-scale projects and is now targeting 5,000 MW under development. Today, Revolve is also an owner-operator of renewable energy distribution generation projects that provide recurring revenue and cash flow via long-term power purchase agreements. Currently, the portfolio contains 150-plus MW of generation projects in Canada and Mexico. The company will continue expanding this line of business through organic growth and mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity. Revolve's management team has a successful track record in taking renewable energy projects from greenfield to ready-to-build status and in selling them to large operators. Collectively, it has generated about US$23M in revenue historically from the sale of 1,550 MW of development assets and has raised US$10.3M in equity capital. Significant Sector Growth Forecasted The transition to net zero emissions continues driving the renewable energy industry after nearly 200 countries at the COP28 UN Climate Change Conference in December 2023 pledged to triple global capacity by the end of this decade. In a report last month, the International Energy Agency (IEA) forecasted global renewable capacity reaching almost 11,000 gigawatts (GW) by then, reflecting 2.7 times growth, falling short of the goal. Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Power: Of the growth predicted for renewable energy during this period, solar photovoltaic power will make up 80% of it, according to the IEA, due to its increasing economic attractiveness in most countries. "At the end of this decade, solar PV is set to become the largest renewable source, surpassing both wind and hydropower," the agency wrote. Hydropower currently is the top source worldwide. Wind Power: Wind power will account for 15% of all forecasted renewable capacity growth, noted the IEA. This sector has suffered recently from macroeconomic factors and supply chain difficulties, but it is expected to recover. Global wind capacity is projected to expand between 2024 and 2029 at double the rate it grew between 2017 and 2023. "Policy changes concerning auction design, permitting, and grid connection in Europe, the United States, India, and other emerging and developing economies are expected to enhance project bankability and help the wind sector recover from recent financial difficulties," the article noted. Hydropower: As for hydropower, capacity is continuing to grow consistently, noted the IEA, due primarily to efforts by China, India, Africa and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations region. In North America, the U.S. is expected to be the biggest market for hydropower, according to Mordor Intelligence. Between 2024 and 2029, the market is forecasted to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 1%, spurred by demand for renewable energy and investments in hydropower plants. "The technological advancements in efficiency and decrease in the production cost of hydropower projects are expected to create ample opportunity for market players," the article noted. The Catalysts: Results of Business as Usual As Revolve continues effecting its growth strategies, numerous potential stock-boosting events should occur, according to its corporate presentation. Catalysts resulting from ongoing efforts include further M&A transactions, signing additional power purchase agreements, and bringing new distributed generation projects online. wo increasing revenue and cash flow growth. Specifically, the company reaching its goals of advancing 70 MW of the BESS and Wind projects to ready-to-build status as well as 30 MW of solar in Canada, in 2025. These have the potential to generate material revenue and add value. Another catalyst is Revolve achieving ready-to-build status for its two wind projects in Mexico, the 103 MW El 24 and the 400 MW Presa Nueva. The company's ultimate goal with these assets is to partner on or sell them. [OWNERSHIP_CHART-10982] Finally, payments toward the remaining US$45–55M balance still owed to Revolve regarding the ENGIE sale could boost its stock. Ownership and Share Structure About 60% of the company is owned by insiders and management, Revolve said. Top shareholders include Joseph O'Farrell with 13.21%, Roger Norwich with 12.15%, the CEO and Director Stephen Dalton with 6.01%, President and Director Omar Bojorquez with 4.82%, and Jonathan Clare with 1.84%, according to Reuters and the company. The rest is retail. Revolve has a market cap of CA$17.96M. It has 63.04M outstanding shares and 38.75M free float traded shares. Its 52-week high and low are CA$0.50 and CA$0.21 per share, respectively.
