SKIPPACK, PA--(Marketwired - July 22, 2013) - North Bay Resources Inc. (OTCQB: NBRI) ("North Bay" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has initiated fieldwork on its 100% owned Mount Washington Project on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The work program is being conducted by Mr. Jacques Houle, P.Eng. In addition, the Company has significantly increased the size and scope of several target areas contained within the property.

Property Overview

The Mount Washington Project (formerly known as the Mt. Washington/Connie Hill Property) is located on east-central Vancouver Island, approximately 15 kilometres northwest of Courtenay BC, and extends for 10 kilometres from Constitution Hill and Wolf Lake west to Mount Washington. The property presently covers 2,796 contiguous hectares (6,907 acres). Access to the property is by a network of well-maintained paved and gravel mining and logging roads. Electric power and ample water for drilling is available nearby. Port facilities and year-round accommodations, construction supplies, services and labor are also readily available in the Campbell River-Courtenay area.

Murex Breccia Zone

The primary target area on the property is currently the Murex Breccia Zone, located approximately 3 km due east of Mount Washington. As summarized in BC MINFILE 092F 206, "the Murex zone represents an area of roughly 700 by 700 metres. The mineralization is thought to be the result of replacement but also has characteristics in common with porphyry-type deposits. The zone has been tested by a number of diamond-drill holes. One hole drilled in 1989 cut strong breccias with pyrrhotite-chalcopyrite mineralization about 30 metres below the surface. A 4 metre section of core assayed 4.08 per cent copper, 32.91 grams per tonne silver and 6.31 grams per tonne gold (George Cross News Letter #5, January 8, 1990)."

A National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report (AR 30010) filed with the Ministry of Mines in 2008 and authored by Mr. Houle documents extensive drilling and development on the Mt. Washington project over the course of several decades until 1992, when the bottom fell out of the metals market and mine development in the area came to virtual halt. Included in the report is an exhaustive history of development at the Murex Breccia Zone, delineated by outcrop. trench mapping, sampling, and as many as 45 drill holes. A total of five sub-zones have been identified within the Murex deposit, labeled Zones A, B, C, D, and E. Noteworthy examples from the report show diamond drilling on the Murex by Noranda in 1988 yielded significant intercepts, as follows:

• NMX-88-17 yielded 0.25m. @ 3.7 g/t gold, 46 g/t silver and 9.7% copper from 196.5 to 197.21 m. from a massive sulphide vein in Zone A

Later drilling yielded two significant intercepts 100 metres apart stepping out 100-200 metres east of a 1986 drill hole cluster in the D Zone, as follows:

• NMX-89-25 yielded 4.0 m. @ 6.5 g/t gold, 30 g/t silver and 4.1% copper from 29 to 33m., including: 1.0 m. @ 21 g/t gold, 71 g/t silver and 9.3% copper from 29 to 30 m. in a massive sulphide vein in basalt with pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite and pyrite
  
  
• NMX-89-26 yielded 6.5 m. @ 0.23 g/t gold, 7.3 g/t silver and 1.1% copper from 16.2 to 22.7 m. in a siliceous basaltic breccia with pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite
  
  

Upon review of historical aeromagnetic surveys of the Murex Breccia area, the Company has staked additional ground to the south and east of the Murex where several additional breccia bodies have been discovered over a broad area, and where a large aeromagnetic high has been determined to be centered on the property. The newly staked ground now covers the entire magnetic anomaly, which is approximately 1.5 kilometers in length and 1 kilometer in width. All known copper-gold-silver mineralization at the Murex contains pyrrhotite and is magnetic, suggesting that the magnetic anomaly may indicate the presence of additional mineralization. A map of the magnetic anomaly discussed can be seen at http://www.northbayresources.com/images/MurexAeromag.png.

Oyster Breccia Zone

Another target on the property is the Oyster (MINFILE 092F 365) Breccia Zone located approximately 3 km north of Mount Washington. It has been mapped to be approximately 400 metres in diameter, and is estimated to be at least 184 metres deep. The MINFILE summary and AR 17193 reports that a grab sample of silicified fault breccia assayed 14.50 grams per tonne gold, 31.88 grams per tonne silver, 1.04% lead and 0.05% zinc. A 43 centimetre section of core assayed 2.78 grams per tonne gold, 6.86 grams per tonne silver, and 0.07% copper. A more recent report from 2008 (Assessment Report 30010) discusses the Oyster Breccia Zone at length, and documents that it has been delineated by outcrop and trench mapping and sampling, and 9 drill holes. 

Wolf Lake Zones

The Company has recently consolidated its claim area around Wolf Lake in the Connie Hill section of the property northeast of Mount Washington to now include two gold-bearing sulphide vein showings known as the Road Zone and the Bluff Zone. As documented in BC Assessment Report 27824 published in 2005 and authored by Mr. James Laird and Mr. Greg Thomson, P. Geo., these gold-bearing sulphide veins are hosted within shallow east-dipping fracture zones or detachment faults in basalt flows of the Karmutsen Formation, and are proximal to northwest trending fault zones and Tertiary intrusives. It is believed that there is a good potential for discovering more high-grade gold zones and of extending the known zones. The Road Zone yielded grab sample assays of 21.94 grams per tonne gold, 30.86 grams per tonne silver, and 0.66 per cent copper from quartz-sulphide vein rubble, documented in BC Assessment Report 15034 by Carl Verley and C.J. Westerman in 1986. The Bluff Zone yielded grab sample assays up to 76 grams (2.44 ounces) per tonne gold in outcrop grab samples from a quartz-sulphide vein, documented in BC Assessment Report 27430 by W. Geiger in 2004.

Domineer Vein

The Company's claim area covers a significant portion of the adjacent Domineer gold vein deposit (MINFILE 092F 116), including the Lakeview-Domineer portal excavated by the previous operator in 1987-88 on western slope of Mount Washington. The historical resource estimate (not NI 43-101 compliant) of the Domineer has previously been reported as 550,298 tonnes @ 6.75 g/t gold, 32.23 g/t silver and 0.57% copper. 

In July 2010, a 168 metric ton bulk sample was extracted near the Domineer portal by the previous operator from an area entirely within the Company's present claim area. The average grade of this 168 tonne bulk sample assayed 51.53 grams (1.65 ounces) per tonne gold, 88.02 grams (2.83 ounces) per tonne silver, and over 1% copper (BC Assessment Report 32514). The bulk sample was taken from within the area of the Domineer historical resource estimate.

Mt. Washington Copper Mine Tailings

As the direct result of staking additional claims to the east of the Murex deposit, the Company has gained control of a tailings pond formerly used and abandoned by the Mt. Washington Copper Mine when it was in operation in the 1960s. In 2011, Mr. Houle assessed these tailings in BC Assessment Report 32514 and reported that, "Overall the values are relatively consistent throughout the tailings dam, and show good correlation amongst gold, silver, arsenic, copper, molybdenum, tellurium, iron and sulphur. The metals of potential economic interest in the tailings dam include gold, silver, copper and possibly tellurium, which could have combined in-situ value of $5 to $10 million using current metal prices. Although this should not be considered a mineral resource estimate, the data collected in the 2011 program could be used for that purpose. Density measurements of the tailings dam are required to estimate tonnages. Mineralogical and metallurgical studies of the tailings are required to determine potential processing methods, metal recovery factors, waste product characteristics and ultimately, project economics."

The Company plans to study the economic feasibility of processing the tailings to recover these metals as a source of near-term revenue.

The extended monorail assembly line now extends the manufacturing capability of BAE’s Samlesbury, Lancashire facility where aft sections for the F-35 are already being constructed using this revolutionary process.

After initial machining operations, the tails will move through a series of three stations during which sealants are applied followed by two carbon skins – known as structural wet assembly.

Once a peak production rate has been achieved, BAE expect tails will move down the line at a rate of one completed set every day.

The line is the latest in Samlesbury’s transformation into a state-of-the-art manufacturing plant where the rear fuselage, horizontal tails and vertical tails for Lockheed’s F-35 Joint Strike Fighters are produced.   

BAE’s Head of F-35 Operations, Andy Higgins commented:

“The (empennage) line is a major step forward in the transformation of this facility. Since we opened an extension to the facility, doubling its size to 18,300m in March 2012, we’ve maintained our commitments to deliver against a demanding production schedule, while at the same time developing and implementing new manufacturing techniques.

“The team has done a remarkable job to make the transition happen smoothly.”

The new monorail line is built on the same lean principals as the rear fuselage line, allowing more units to be produced more efficiently. Both lines feature an overhead monorail system which pulses parts down the line for all three types of F-35 aircraft – Conventional, STOVL and Carrier.  

With the structural wet assembly line now operational, work is underway to install the pre-machining element of the line to complete the plant’s transformation in early 2014.

Collectively, more than 500 UK companies are involved in manufacturing the F-35 Lighting II, contributing 15 percent of each aircraft produced. Over the next four decades UK industry will continue to play a vital role in the F-35’s global production, follow-on development and sustainment, brining strong economic benefits to the country and generating tens of thousands of jobs in the process.

Garden Grove, CA, July 23, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Saint-Gobain Seals Group has recently received EU certification for their custom formulated compound, Fluoroloy® A79, regarding direct food contact. As food contact materials come into contact with the food, molecules can migrate from the food contact material to the food, and because of this, many countries have established regulations and rigorous testing to ensure food safety. Food contact materials can be constructed from a variety of materials such as plastics, rubber, paper, coatings, metal, or a combination of materials.

Fluoroloy® A79, a plastics material, meets the requirements of the European Commission Regulation (EU) No 1935/2004 and 10/2011 with the use of Simulant C (20% ethanol); it was tested for specific and overall migration and all results were below the maximum limit. Fluoroloy® A79 is currently being used as the jacket material for seals within industrial ice cream machines but is also compliant with other food processing equipment. In addition to the EU certification, Fluoroloy® A79 also meets US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements for materials which have repeated contact with food or drugs for oral consumption.

Aside from Fluoroloy® A79, Saint-Gobain Seals Group’s offers more than 80 standard Fluoroloy® grades. Several other Fluoroloy® grades are available for food applications that are also compliant with EU regulation 1935/2004 and 10/2011, FDA, USP Class VI, USDA and 3A Sanitary.

Fluoroloy® is a registered trademark of Saint-Gobain Seals Group, consisting of a family of proprietary materials that are composed primarily of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) based resins and developed to perform in the most diverse and extreme applications for various markets such as Oil & Gas, Automotive, Aerospace and Life Sciences.

This material is also being used for the jacket material to manufacture OmniSeal®, high-performance spring-energized seals with excellent chemical resistance and physical, thermal and tribological properties. In the Oil & Gas Industry, OmniSeal® seals will be utilized on the world's first subsea gas compression station in the Åsgard field offshore Norway, which will be installed in 2015. The material has been certified to the NORSOK M710rev2 and API 6A standards, making the Seals Group one of few companies to reach this high level of compliance. In the Life Sciences industry, OmniSeal® seals are often used in surgical tools and are part of the only full-powered, reusable, battery operated endoscopic stapler in the world.

Written by Alastair Sorbie, CEO of IFS – a leading global enterprise software vendor to industries where asset management, manufacturing, field service management, supply chain management, or project management are core disciplines

To read the latest issue of Manufacturing Digital, click here

This June’s Markit/CIPS UK manufacturing PMI survey found that British manufacturers enjoyed a stronger than expected rebound in business in May, fuelling hopes that the sector will boost overall economic growth this quarter. Manufacturing activity grew at its fastest for more than a year as both new orders and output picked up pace.

This is in large part due to the fact that more businesses are bringing their manufacturing operations back to the UK – or near-shoring – as oil and freight costs, combined with dramatic wage inflation, make the Far East a less attractive option for companies looking to save money.

We started to witness this trend in 2012, with a number of companies becoming disenchanted with off-shore operations and looking locally for manufacturing and other supply-chain partners. The UK’s large pool of labour and low wage inflation was a big attraction.

The reshaping of the UK manufacturing industry

However, the near-shoring movement does not herald a revival of the traditional manufacturing model in the UK.  The industry has long been associated with rigid terms like ‘assemble to order’, ‘make to order’ and ‘configure to order’, which is reflective of the high volume production involved. However, when it comes down to pure production, western manufacturers just cannot compete with the Far East on cost.

To retain relevance, the UK manufacturing sector must instead target the many businesses that are looking to capitalise on cloud computing and the internet of things, creating a new generation of intelligent objects. This will require lower volume runs of bespoke products, meaning that  ’individualise to order’ is a term that will gain prominence in the sector.

This new approach is being referred to by the somewhat portentous term of ‘Industry 4.0’ – placing it on a par with the steam, electrical and computer revolutions in industry. While we’ll have to see whether or not this breathless buzzword gains common currency, it cannot be denied that this trend will force manufactures to rethink their business models and the technology that underpins them.

While this new model of manufacturing will reduce profit margins on manufacturing runs, it brings with it new revenue opportunities in the service layer. This will be one of the major trends shaping the manufacturing industry in the coming years, with service management and after-sales support adding new revenue streams to manufacturing businesses.

The trend towards ‘intelligent items’ is all about managing the end-to-end lifecycle of a product using sensor data to manage maintenance and upgrades once the product has gone into the field. Additionally, this data will feed into future product design as well as helping to optimise production processes. Rigid production lines will be transformed into modular, efficient systems where the entire lifecycle of a product is documented in full.

Agile technology will be the enabler

The smart use of technology will underpin this reshaping of the UK manufacturing industry. Greater controls will be required to manage costs, build bespoke solutions and handle multiple configurations. Agile IT systems will be fundamental in enabling this new project-based and tailored approach to manufacturing.

Enterprise applications that have been developed to support business agility will enable transition to this project-based mentality.For example, applications that can be deployed quickly, offered “as-a-service” and provide real-time feedback help support this customisable form of manufacturing. Applications that run on mobile devices will also be critical, giving speedy access to IT systems and related business functions anywhere, anytime.

Of course, for this new manufacturing model to be embraced effectively, project management is crucial. Flexible IT systems must be in place to support this approach so that the product that is being manufactured, along with the relevant supply chain, can be seamlessly tracked and managed in real-time.

As a result we will see more businesses building collaborative networks and developing specialist skills, supported by smart factories and intelligent machines, helping the UK to continue its revival as a manufacturing base.

Southampton, PA, July 23, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Colin Dedman, Technical Officer in the Department of Atomic & Molecular Physical Laboratory at the Australian National University, has published his solar PV panel testing results in the July-Sept 2013 issue of Australian magazine ReNew. Mr. Dedman’s article highlights module energy yield scores in real world winter conditions versus the module nameplate power rating. The higher the yield score, the more the panel exceeds nameplate power rating.

WINAICO’s polycrystalline modules have not only ranked highest among tested competitors like Lightway, Trina, and Panasonic, but have performed with record breaking yield performance in winter conditions with a score of 108.8%. These impressive results confirm that WINAICO high efficiency modules provide considerably higher power than their nametag, or price tag, suggest.

In addition to testing the winter energy yield scores of each module, Mr. Dedman has also measured each modules energy density. Energy density is the measure of real-world energy yield relative to the area of the module. This information is especially important for space limited roof installations. WINAICO provided the highest energy density of any polycrystalline modules tested with an above average score of 105.4%.

The premium quality and high efficiency WINAICO module provides real benefit to installers that are looking to reduce installation costs, and provide their customers with the highest amount of power possible.

MARLBOROUGH, MA--(Marketwired - July 23, 2013) - Comfort Source, Inc., a leading innovator in massage chair technology, today announced a massage chair leasing program offering its high-quality, luxury massage chairs for businesses to lease for customer waiting areas or to provide superior customer service. Unlike any other massage chair, the Comfort Source luxury massage chairs feature four flexible massage rollers that move up and down the back, simulating the hand movements of a professional massage or shiatsu. The Comfort Source massage chairs are quiet, easy to operate and highly mobile, offering businesses the flexibility to move them where and when needed.

"Let's face it, no one likes having to wait and just sit around as they are having a service done," said Steve Elkinson, president of Comfort Source. "The business that offers customers the enjoyment of a realistic massage from a Comfort Source luxury massage chair is providing them with a relaxing diversion that will make their wait or overall customer experience immensely enjoyable. They are also differentiating themselves from the competition."

The Comfort Source luxury massage chairs have a small footprint that enables them to be perfect for a variety of applications. In addition to waiting rooms, the massage chairs can be used to create a comforting and stress-reducing environment in workplace break rooms. Any business that would like to reward employees with a wellness benefit would find the massage chairs provide a tremendous advantage in terms of increased morale and productivity. The Comfort Source luxury massage chairs are ideal for auto dealerships and service centers, hotels and convention centers, and any other customer or service-oriented business that wants to enhance customer relationships, show customers how much they value their business, create goodwill and loyalty with customers and maintain high customer survey ratings.

"The Comfort Source massage chairs are a way for us to provide another level of service, create goodwill with our customers and distinguish our dealership from others."

The Comfort Source luxury massage chairs start and stop with the push of a single button and shut off automatically after running for five minutes. There is no need to learn to operate a remote control with confusing buttons. The chairs do not recline, therefore users appear to be just sitting in a comfortable chair and do not attract attention.

The Comfort Source luxury massage chairs are made of durable, heavy leatherette vinyl that is stain resistant and easy to clean with a damp cloth. Their modular construction makes it easy to remove a section of a chair s for any needed repair or replacement.

Lease pricing for the Comfort Source luxury massage chairs starts at $79 per month and includes 100% maintenance and service and 24 hour repair and replacement, if necessary. The Comfort Source luxury massage chairs are also available for short-term rental for events or trade shows.
