$CLABF Core One Labs’ Akome Biotech Initiates Neurogenesis Stimulation and Modeling Studies: Advancing its Proprietary Psychedelic-based Pharmaceutical FormulationsPress Release | 03/04/2022
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Core One Labs Inc. (CSE: COOL), (OTC: CLABF), (Frankfurt: LD6, WKN: A3CSSU) (the “Company” or “Core One”) is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary Akome Biotech Ltd. (“Akome”), has entered into an agreement with the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (“Universidad Complutense”), officially commencing neurogenesis stimulation and modeling studies research, to advance the development of the Company’s patent pending psychedelic bioactive compounds that target Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, Major Depressive Disorder and Ischemic Stroke.
Neurogenesis is the ability of the brain to grow new neurons. Until recently, neuroscientists believed that the central nervous system, including the brain, was incapable of neurogenesis and unable to regenerate. However, research conducted over the last two decades confirms, not only that adult neurogenesis is a normal process that occurs in the healthy brain, but also that it can be enhanced by psychedelics among other potent stimulants. Neurogenesis is considered important in neuroplasticity, the ability of the brain to form new connections and pathways and change how its circuits are wired. Through Akome’s initial data mapping of how psychedelic substances and selected bioactive substances cooperate, there is potential for significant stimulus in adult neurogenesis in the brains of individuals that are afflicted with certain neurological disorders, and Akome’s research with Universidad Complutense seeks to prove that its chosen bioactive-compounds can enhance such processes.
The research, which is currently underway, is being led by Dr. Jose A. Morales-Garcia, PhD, of the Universidad Complutense de Madrid, a leading institution with extensive experience in psychedelics research, and neurodegenerative processes responsible for conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, Major Depressive disorder, Parkinson's disease and ischemic stroke. The scope of research is designed to advance the Company’s hypothesis that the selected candidate bioactive compounds included in its patent submissions, are viable candidates and will react positively upon targets in the Central Nervous System, and have the potential to stimulate neurogenesis in the brain of individuals afflicted with neurological disorders, and subsequently result in groundbreaking clinical implications for the indications of Ischemic stroke, Alzheimer's disease, Major Depressive disorder and Parkinson's disease.
Dr. Morales is an Assistant Professor and Honorary fellow in the Cellular Biology Department at the Complutense University of Madrid, Medical School, a scientist at the Center for Networked Biomedical Research on Neurodegenerative Diseases, as well as a professor in the Master of Pharmacological Research at the Autonoma University of Madrid. Dr. Morales has over 40 scientific publications in peer-reviewed journals.
Dr. Morales has a vast research background in the identification and analysis of new cellular targets implicated in neurogenesis and neurodegeneration as well as focused work in the study in vitro and in vivo of the mechanism underlying neurodegenerative disease, mainly Alzheimer´s and Parkinsonism in order to develop new neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory and neurogenic compounds for the treatment of these disorders.
“I believe that the treatment of individuals with neurological disorders through the use of psychedelic based pharmaceuticals, will become a major focus of mental healthcare in the near future. The groundbreaking work that Universidad Complutense is doing for Akome, will contribute significantly to the advancement of our drug formulations as we work to commercialize our patents. By developing unique psychedelic based pharmaceutical formulations that can be used for the treatment of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Depression and Ischemic Stroke, the Company is positioning itself to serve a larger and more diverse patient base,” stated Joel Shacker, the Company’s CEO.

$CLABF Vancouver discovery will make ‘Magic Mushroom’ mental health care cheaper
Press Release | 02/23/2022
Vancouver, BC, Feb. 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A team of Vancouver scientists has discovered a new process to cost-effectively make psilocybin, the active ingredient in magic mushrooms, paving the way for greater and more affordable treatments for a range of addictions and mental health conditions.
Recent research has found psilocybin is effective in the treatment of alcohol and opiate addiction, PTSD, depression, and anxiety. Research into other potential applications is ongoing. According to scientists at John Hopkins University the current cost of $7,000 - $10,000 per gram of psilocybin, makes it a prohibitively expensive ingredient in medical regimens and academic research.
A team out of Vancouver’s Core One Labs led by Dr. Robert Hancock, a globally renowned University of British Columbia (UBC) microbiologist and Canada Research Chair Holder in Health and Genomics, has created a new process they expect will bring that cost under $100 a gram by the end of 2022.
“It’s a game changer that allows for rapid, stable and cost-effective psilocybin production to bring the price down of the psychedelic compound that is showing enormous promise in treating addiction, depression and PTSD,” said Dr. Hancock, an Order of Canada recipient.
Psilocybin, Dr Hancock said, has been trialled, tested, legalised and decriminalised in many parts of the world and its “exceptional properties” could transform the mental-health care field.
The new process the team developed uses specially constructed, optimised DNA sequences making bacteria into biological factories for psilocybin production via a fermentation process, allowing the substance to be created in a lab under controlled conditions.
The breakthrough discovery comes in the wake of Health Canada approving the Special Access Program (SAP) use of psilocybin in psychedelic assisted therapy for mental illness, which afflicts 1 in 5 people in Canada every year.
A study from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology, & Neuroscience (IoPPN) at King’s College London, found that psilocybin can be safely administered with no detrimental effects in healthy people.
In the Pacific Northwest, Oregon has legalised psilocybin treatment for mental health issues while a pair of Washington State lawmakers earlier this month introduced legislation that would legalize “supported psilocybin experiences” by adults 21 and older.
“Nationally and internationally recognized medical institutions have shown that Psilocybin can help treat a variety of behavioral health conditions,” stated the Washington bill, “including but not limited to addiction, depression, anxiety disorders, and end-of-life psychological distress.”
“Psychotherapists around the world are reporting psilocybin treatment, is showing some of the best results compared to any therapy in addressing addiction, anxiety, depression and PTSD, said Joel Shacker, Chief Executive Officer of Core One Labs Inc., which has filed for a patent on its new discovery.
“The science and engineering by our scientists is playing a significant role in furthering mental health research with cost-effective psychedelic compounds,” he said.
The company’s scientists are now working with Dr. Hancock and global partners for the advancement of psychedelic-derived treatments for mental health disorders including neurodegenerative diseases, like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s.
McMillan LLP research recently reported that psychedelics have come a long way since the 1970s, at which time they faced a negative backlash as a result of the “war on drugs” in the United States, and corresponding restrictions in countries such as Canada.
“With a growing body of research, shifting demographics and a general openness to evaluate non-conventional ways to deal with existing challenges, the public has become more receptive to psychedelics for medical and therapeutic purposes,” said the business law firm.
The Canadian Psychedelic Association has also revealed survey findings from Nanos Research which demonstrated that 82% of Canadians approve the use of psilocybin-assisted therapy, and 78% would support a government that legalized the same.

$CLABF Core One Labs’ Files Milestone Patent for Protection of its Recombinant Production System for Optimized Biosynthetic N-methyltryptamine (NMT)
Press Release | 02/21/2022
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 21, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Core One Labs Inc. (CSE: COOL), (OTC: CLABF), (Frankfurt: LD6, WKN: A3CSSU) (“Core One” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Vocan Biotechnologies Inc. of Victoria, British Columbia, has filed a patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) for the production of biosynthetic N-methyltryptamine (NMT) (also known as monomethyl tryptamine (MMT)) through its optimized recombinant production system (the “System”). N-Methyltryptamine is a member of tryptamines and is an organic compound known to produce psychoactive effects when combined with a monoamine oxidase A inhibitor (MAOI).1
The patent entitled “Production of Psychedelic Compounds” protects Core One’s novel proprietary production system. The System, under the leadership of Dr. Jan Burian, Chief Scientist, and Dr. Robert EW Hancock, is designed to make bacteria act as a biological factory and produce bioidentical psychedelic analogs such as biosynthetic N-methyltryptamine (NMT).
The Company's unique production process can manufacture a more superior cGMP compliant API grade NMT (or other psychedelic products) than any chemically synthesized counterpart, since it retains the stereochemistry of the natural psychedelic analogs found in hallucinogenic mushrooms. Natural psilocybin and psychedelic-related molecules are known to have a more positive effect than those chemically synthesized; however, analog compounds can potentially be more effective and safer than natural compounds.
A final patent approval would propel Core One past industry rivals since their game-changing production process enables mass-production of synthetic psilocybin and other psychedelic compounds or analogs more rapidly, while also reducing the production cost and market price drastically. It also maintains the quality and efficacy that are usually present in organically produced psychedelics.
“Filing this patent is an important milestone for the company since it allows us to protect our intellectual property against potential competitors. The patent provides a broad array of strategies useful for making psychedelic compounds enabling Core One to diversify its product portfolio,” stated Dr. Bob Hancock, CEO of Vocan Biotechnologies.

$CLABF Core One Labs Completes Strategic Acquisition of Awakened Biosciences and its Game-Changing Provisional Patents
Press Release | 02/11/2022
VANCOUVER, British Columbia., Feb. 11, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Core One Labs Inc. (CSE: COOL), (OTC: CLABF), (Frankfurt: LD6, WKN: A3CSSU) (the “Company” or “Core One”), a life sciences biotechnology company focused on research, development, and production of API grade psychedelic compounds, as well as the advancement of psychedelic assisted treatments for various mental health and neurological disorders, is pleased to announce that it has completed the acquisition (the “Transaction”) of all of the outstanding share capital of Awakened Biosciences Inc. (“Awakened”).
Awakened is a psychedelics research and technology company that has successfully developed novel technologies for the production of synthetic psilocybin, the synthetic production of psilocybin and psilocin analogues, and for the manufacturing of various no-psychoactive psilocybin-based prodrugs. All of Awakened’s production methods have the potential to produce resultant compounds at scale, and at significantly reduced costs when compared to other production methods of the same name.
Awakened’s novel production methods have resulted in the filing of three (3) provisional patents applications with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for protection of these proprietary technologies.
The Transaction presents many significant and immediate benefits to the Company, including expanding the Company’s portfolio of subsidiaries specializing in the research and development of psychedelic compounds, as well as an expansion in the spectrum of methods Core One’s scientists can employ in producing psychedelic-based formulations.
Successful employment of Awakened’s patent-pending production technologies could also result in revenue generation for the Company, as some of the patent-pending methods, and resultant analogues produced, could be sold, and shipped without Controlled Drug and Substances Act (CDSA) restrictions.
The Transaction also increases the Company’s catalogue of psychedelic compounds available for clinical and medicinal research, including an array of prodrugs that would be produced from the new technologies.
Normally designed to improve bioavailability, a prodrug is described as a medication or a compound that is metabolized into a pharmacologically active drug after administration. For psychedelic compounds, prodrugs would contain the same medicinal benefits associated with psychedelics while eliminating the hallucinogenic effects.
Awakened is led by Dr. Tony Durst, an Emeritus Professor at the University of Ottawa, and renowned specialist in medicinal and natural product chemistry. Dr. Durst is a co-inventor of 14 patents applications, 14 awarded. He is a founder of Souroubea Botanicals Inc., and a 2013 Queen Elizabeth 60th Silver Jubilee medal recipient.
The addition of Dr. Durst, along with his established relationship with the University of Ottawa, further compliments Core One’s strong scientific team led by Dr. Robert Hancock, CEO of the Company’s subsidiary Vocan Biotechnology, and establishes a relationship with another one of Canada’s leading scientific research universities, as the Company continues to build an impressive roster of leading scientific researchers.
“This acquisition is yet another illustration of Core One’s commitment to become a leading biotechnology and life sciences enterprise in the psychedelic sector. With the addition of Awakened to the Core One family, the Company has increased expansion opportunities, furthered its psychedelic products portfolio, and secured potential for immediate revenue generation. All of these factors lead toward greater market share for the Company, and to increased shareholder value,” stated Joel Shacker, Core One CEO.
Transaction Details
The Transaction was completed pursuant to a share purchase agreement among the Company, Awakened and the shareholders of Awakened (the “Definitive Agreement”) dated effective February 9, 2022. Pursuant to the Definitive Agreement, and in consideration for the acquisition of Awakened, the Company has issued 7,030,000 common shares and 1,458,200 share purchase warrants entitling the holders to acquire an equivalent number of common shares of the Company at a price of $1.15 per share until February 4, 2024.
The Company is at arms-length from Awakened and its shareholders. The Transaction neither constitutes a fundamental change nor a change of business for the Company, nor has it resulted in a change of control of the Company within the meaning applicable securities laws and the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange. In connection with completion of the Transaction, the Company has issued 140,600 common shares to certain third-parties who provided administrative services necessary to complete the Transaction.

$CLABF Core One Labs’ Successful Patent Application Filing for Protection of its Biosynthetic Production System for Psilocybin Marks a Significant Milestone for the Progression of Psychedelic Health Care
Press Release | 02/09/2022
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 09, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Core One Labs Inc. (CSE: COOL), (OTC: CLABF), (Frankfurt: LD6, WKN: A3CSSU) (the “Company” or “Core One”) is pleased to announce that following its milestone announcement that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Vocan Biotechnologies Inc. (Vocan), has successfully engineered a novel recombinant production system for biologically synthesized (biosynthesized) psilocybin, and has filed for patent protection of its groundbreaking intellectual property (see Core One’s press release dated January 21, 2022), its team of scientist continue to make progress and are in the process of optimizing at scale production capacity.
Scaled up production of the Company’s groundbreaking biosynthetic psilocybin, and an approval of the Company’s patent application will further Core One and Vocan’s journey to becoming a significant player in the provision of cost effective psilocybin and has the potential to significantly change the face of psychedelic-based mental health care and patient access to alternative treatments around the globe.
Psilocybin is a psychedelic compound that is showing enormous promise in treating addiction and many mental health disorders; and the success of this game-changing patent propels Core One to the forefront of the rapidly expanding psychedelics industry, eliminating barriers for psychedelic treatments and research such as exorbitant costs and lack of availability and supply.
Currently, most companies use chemically synthesized psilocybin as the only available cGMP compliant product that is available in large volumes. The chemical process carries significant costs and is less efficient when compared to a biologically derived psilocybin.
Under the leadership of Dr. Jan Burian, Vocan’s Chief Scientist, and Dr. Robert EW Hancock, Vocan’s CEO, the team’s ground-breaking psilocybin production method utilizes the well-established industrial process of fermentation and therefore can be scaled up while consistently producing a high-quality cGMP product. The process turns bacteria into a biological factory to produce synthesized psilocybin, cutting cost and time immensely.
With Vocan’s optimized recombinant production system, the subsidiary successfully tested its proof-of-concept for the manufacturing of biosynthetic psilocybin suitable for use in future scale-up and is awaiting patent approval. The application includes claims that Vocan’s technology will enable the production of cGMP API grade psilocybin, which can be used by pharmaceutical companies, API manufacturers and organizations conducting clinical trials and, where permitted by law, consumers, and patients. Vocan’s crucial breakthrough anticipates a rippling effect that could rearrange the industry’s landscape hereafter.
“This breakthrough in psilocybin production, can shift the entire industry. By making psychedelic treatments cost effective, this could make treatment more widely available to patients globally. Additionally, our patent on this process, gives us first mover advantage in this significant and emerging space,” Stated Joel Shacker CEO of the Company.

AWESOME NEWS AFTERHOURS FRIDAY!
Core One Labs Announces Successful Proof of Concept and Files Patent for Protection of its Recombinant Production System for Optimized Biosynthesis of Psilocybin
January 21, 2022
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada – January 21, 2022 – Core One Labs Inc. (CSE: COOL), (OTC: CLABF), (Frankfurt: LD6, WKN: A3CSSU) (“Core One” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Vocan Biotechnologies Inc. of Victoria, British Columbia, has optimized its recombinant production system (the “System”), successfully testing its proof of concept for the biosynthesis of psilocybin suitable for use in future scale-up and has filed a patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) titled “Production of Psychedelic Compounds” for protection of its novel psilocybin production system. Psilocybin is a psychedelic compound that is showing enormous promise in treating addiction and depression.
The Company’s team of scientists at Vocan have constructed optimized DNA sequences that can produce enzymes replicating the biosynthetic pathway used by Psilocybe mushrooms. This allows bacteria to become factories for psilocybin production. Under the leadership of Dr. Jan Burian, Chief Scientist, and Dr. Robert EW Hancock, Vocan CEO, Vocan scientists have used DNA modeling to improve and optimize design and produce unique DNA sequences that improve the efficiency and expression of these enzymes, allowing for rapid and cost-effective psilocybin production.
Currently, most companies use chemically synthesized psilocybin as the only available cGMP compliant product that is available in large volumes. The chemical process carries significant costs and is less efficient when compared to a biologically derived psilocybin. Vocan’s biosynthetic process retains the stereochemistry of the natural psilocybin molecules found in hallucinogenic mushrooms, which are known to have a more positive effect than the chemically synthetized counterpart. However, these tiny mushrooms are not an efficient source of psilocybin since the amount produced is quite small and variable.
Vocan’s successful production system engineers bacteria incorporating optimized biosynthetic genes from the Psilocybe mushroom and other species and enables the bacteria to act as a biological factory and synthesize psilocybin.
Additionally, the Company’s team of scientists hypothesise that by using a gene mimicry process and simple chemical modifications to enable the creation of bioidentical compounds, there is potential to produce other known and novel analogs of psilocybin and related psychedelics. The analog compounds may potentially be more effective, targeted, and safer than the natural compounds.
The patent application entitled “Production of Psychedelic Compounds” includes claims that Vocan’s technology will enable the production of cGMP API grade psilocybin, which can be used by pharmaceutical companies, API manufacturers and organizations conducting clinical trials and, where permitted by law, consumers, and patients. Vocan’s method of psilocybin production will provide more affordable access to organizations looking to acquire cGMP API grade psilocybin. Vocan’s psilocybin production method utilizes the well-established industrial process of fermentation and thus can be scaled up while consistently producing a high-quality cGMP product.
“I am very pleased to say that we are fulfilling our promise to our shareholders and to the medical and research sectors, in general, that we have successfully produced biosynthesized psilocybin. Our team of scientists continue to achieve significant and astounding scientific milestones. Our goal is to play a significant role in furthering mental health research and the benefits of psychedelic medicines, and our cost-effective psychedelic compounds will go a long way towards allowing otherwise cost prohibitive medicines to be widely used,” Stated Dr. Hancock, Chairman of the Company, and CEO of Vocan. “This successful proof of concept for development and production of cost effective and stereochemically sound psilocybin puts Core One in a very unique position. It not only potentially positions the Company as first to market with a biosynthetic psychedelic, it positions us to become market-leaders with regards to cost efficiency, as well.

A MAJOR ACHIEVEMENT BY THE COMPANY!! DELIVERY OF SIGNIFICANTLY CONTROLED PSILOCYBIN IS A MAJOR BREAKTHROUGH FOR MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT!!THIS SHOULD GIVE GREAT CREDIBILITY TO THE COMPANY.
"Core One Labs Announces Breakthrough in Solving Psilocybin Dosing Problems by Introducing Biosynthetic Psilocybin to its Patented Thinstrip Delivery Method
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 12, 2021 / Core One Labs Inc. (CSE:COOL)(OTC PINK:CLABF)(Frankfurt:LD62) (WKN: A2P8K3) (the "Company") is pleased to announce its plans to initiate another intellectual property strategy that will utilize its patented transmucosal thinstrip delivery method ("thinstrip delivery method") in combination with its proprietary biosynthetic psilocybin, developed by its wholly-owned subsidiary, Vocan Biotechnologies Inc. ("Vocan").
The Company's existing thinstrip delivery method has been patented for use with THC and CBD (CannaStripsTM) and has the potential for use with all naturally occurring compounds, including psilocybin
Through cutting-edge research by the Company's team at Vocan, a cost effective method for producing biosynthesized psilocybin has been developed. This low cost method of psilocybin production, in combination with the incorporation of psilocybin into the Company's thinstrip technology, will result in an innovative and first-to-market delivery method of psilocybin for medical purposes.
Core One's objective in developing the psilocybin thinstrips is to assist with the delivery of revolutionary psychedelic treatment methods to address mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety and addictions.
Methods of accurate dosing and effective delivery of psilocybin have gone relatively under-researched, and current methods utilized by companies using traditional oral delivery methods can cause hallucinations, digestive issues, and inaccurate dosages resulting in undesired side effects. The Company's patented sublingual transmucosal (orally dissolvable) thinstrip technology, for the delivery of psilocybin, will aim to address these issues, and anticipates the provision of many potential advantages and benefits such as the rapid dissolving and onset of action to the bloodstream, as well as concentration control and time released dosing. Thinstrip delivery technology is a natural, non-toxic, biodegradable, biocompatible composite, which is user friendly. The sublingual polymer thinstrip, with nano particulated active ingredients, skips the digestive system and is absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the membranes in the mouth, resulting in optimum bioavailability (absorption percentage) of the active ingredients. Direct delivery to the bloodstream means that dosages can be less potent with the same affect.
According to the World Health Organization, almost 350 million people worldwide were affected by depression in 2016. Common antidepressant drugs help maintain the balance of various hormones and chemicals in the brain which assists in the treatment of depression.
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), reported that the percentage of people above the age of 12 years using antidepressants in the U.S. rose 12.7% in 2011-2014. According to MedGadget, the antidepressant drug market was valued at $13.69 billion in 2018 and is expected to reach $15.88 billion by 2025. The CDC said that in the U.S., antidepressants were the most commonly prescribed drugs in 2013 and from over 16 million long term users, around 70% are female.
"One of the critical issues surrounding the use of psilocybin is accurate dosing in oral delivery methods. Our breakthrough technology is a game changer in the psychedelic space and has the potential to revolutionize the way patients receive psychedelics as medicine and reduce over concentrations and resulting adverse effects." stated Dr. Robert E.W. Hancock, Executive Chairman of the Company.

THE COMPANY COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF MAJOR SIGNIFICANCE! WE MUST WAIT FOR THE SUCCESSFUL PRODUCTION OF PSILOCYBIN WHICH WILL BE OF GREAT SIGNIFICANCE TO THE FUTURE OF THE COMPANY.
"Further to its press release of Dec. 24, 2020, Core One Labs Inc. has completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding share capital of Vocan Biotechnologies Inc., effective Dec. 31, 2020.
Vocan is a Canadian-based genetic engineering and biosynthesis research firm developing a proprietary low cost production method to biosynthesize GMP (good manufacturing practices) API-grade psilocybin. Utilizing a Health Canada-certified Controlled Drugs and Substances Dealer's Licence, Vocan's fully operational research laboratory in Victoria, BC is seeking to begin Stage 1 production in early 2021.
Vocan's mission is to use science and proprietary technology to advance the knowledge of natural-based medicines for the treatment of mental health illnesses, and addictions. Vocan's team of scientists, specializing in protein expression and biosynthetic fermentation, have discovered a patentable method of producing psilocybin, the active ingredient in psychotropic mushrooms. This technology will enable the production of GMP (good manufacturing practices) API-grade psilocybin, which can be used by pharmaceutical companies, API manufacturers and medical research organizations conducting clinical trials. Vocan's management expects that the unique optimized DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) construct and producer strain will allow for efficient, cost-effective commercial scale production. Psilocybin production methods developed by Vocan's innovative technology will allow access to affordable GMP API-grade psilocybin.
Vocan's team of high-calibre scientists includes Dr. Robert E.W. Hancock OC, OBC, FRSC, a Canada Research Chair holder in Health and Genomics, a Director of the Centre for Microbial Diseases and Immunity Research and a holder of the Order of Canada for his contributions in these and other fields.
ACQUISITION PROVIDES CORE ONE LABS FULLY OPERATIONAL LABORATORY AND ACCESS TO CONTROLLED DRUGS AND SUBSTANCES DEALER'S LICENSE
The market for psychedelic derived medicines and therapies is estimated to be as high as USD$300 billion worldwide. Over the past decade, growing societal awareness and acceptance of mental disorders and addiction as real diseases has accelerated the push for new and innovative treatments using psychedelics, including psilocybin. According to a study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, treatment-resistant depression (TRD) cost employers upwards of $48 billion each year in the US alone.1 This cost is a result of direct increases in health care costs for the employer and both a decrease in productivity and an increase in absenteeism of employees who suffer from TRD. The potential for psilocybin products extends beyond just the existing market for anti- depressant drugs. Psilocybin has also demonstrated therapeutic benefits that ease existential anxiety in those with terminal diseases and alcoholism. Alcohol dependence places third in a list of preventable deaths in the US alone, costing the country $249 billion in 2010.
"The acquisition of Vocan gives the Company all the necessary licensing and research facilities to continue the development of psilocybin as an alternative therapy. Vocan's leading research team, led by Dr. Hancock, combined with its intellectual property to produce and patent biosynthesized API grade psilocybin, positions Core One as a leader in the psychedelic space. If Vocan can produce psilocybin at scale, it has the potential to provide products at a lower cost than every other company, disrupting the entire industry.
The addition of Vocan positions the Company as a vertically integrated industry leader, with production facilities, patient access and proprietary delivery methods," stated Joel Shacker CEO of the Company.
Transaction Structure
The Transaction was completed pursuant to a share purchase agreement among the Company, Vocan and the shareholders of Vocan (the "Definitive Agreement") dated December 23, 2020. Pursuant to the Definitive Agreement, and in consideration for the acquisition of Vocan, Core One issued (i) 23,500,000 common shares (the "Consideration Shares"); and (ii) 4,000,000 common share purchase warrants (the "Consideration Warrants") entitling the holders to acquire a further 4,000,000 common shares of Core One for $0.30 per share.
In addition to the Consideration Shares and the Consideration Warrants, the existing shareholders of Vocan are entitled to receive a bonus of up to 5,000,000 common shares of Core One (the "Bonus Shares"). The Bonus Shares will be issuable in two tranches, of which 2,500,000 will be issuable upon the successful synthesis of psilocybin, and a further 2,500,000 will be issuable upon the filing of a patent for such synthesis method in at least one jurisdiction.

Cool apparently has successively developed a significant growth of flower products. This should produce significant revenue for the company. However, the structure of the component parts of the company makes it difficult to guestimate profit production. The next quarter numbers should be very revealing.
" ("COOL" or the "Company") announces that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Core Isogenics Inc., has completed its seventh and eighth consecutive harvests at the Adelanto facility.
The Core Isogenics' nursery and cultivation team continue to demonstrate consistent execution completing eight multiple strain harvests in eight weeks. This reliable execution is setting Core Isogenics apart from the numerous struggling cultivators in California. Core Isogenics has proven capable of meeting timely deliveries and contract deadlines. Now that Core Isogenics' cultivation portion of the facility is fully operational the Company will begin harvesting approximately 40-60lbs on a weekly basis to be sold in bulk or through its in-house brand Rêveur.
The facility is equipped with a technology that allows the Company to track the growing conditions in the vegetation and cultivation rooms while documenting both the feeding schedule and soil conditions, enabling the Company to accurately assess and modify the cultivation process creating a dependable model vastly superior to human by-hand methods of the past. The monthly revenue produced from the cultivation operations at today's wholesale market prices will continue to exceed the current operational cost of the entire Adelanto facility. The Company believes the consistent production of high-grade flower from the cultivation operations will translate into solid contracts to grow not only Core One Labs' quality flower but the ability to offer third-party brands a guaranteed production and delivery every week. In addition, the trim and shake from the flower production will translate into an additional revenue thereby further increasing the Company's margins for its existing product lines, Rêveur and CannaStrips™.
The CEO of COOL, Brad Eckenweiler, commented, "The Core Isogenics cultivation operations continue to impress the management team and the numerous brands that have visited the facility over the last eight weeks. This achievement is the foundation for a revenue model that can sustain COOL in-house products such as CannaStripsTM and Rêveur, as well as any additional brands that will benefit from a consistent high-quality product delivered on time. This demonstrated consistency is vital to our business model and to our third-party vendors. Our goal is to achieve continued solid predictability in every harvest." The Company will continue to update the market as information becomes available.

This first harvest of the facility and the yields are based on the earlier technology. The Company expects that the introduction of the Reiziger® nutrient program will increase current yields and accelerate the growth cycle. Now that the Company has produced high quality cannabis in its Adelanto facility, the next steps are to continue to refine the genetics, cultivation techniques, and nutrient regiments to optimize cultivation yields.
Core One Labs CEO, Brad Eckenweiler, stated, This successful harvest of the Core Isogenics cultivation facility is one more accomplishment for the Company as it continues to build its expertise and operational structure towards a truly vertically-integrated cannabis company from genetics to the customers door step. The current market in California for indoor wholesale flower is between USD$1,200 to USD$1,800 per pound with tested COA confirmations.

("COOL" or the "Company") announces that its 50%-owned subsidiary, Agrotech LLC, has harvested 1,600 pounds from the Sacramento farm it manages and has completed drying and testing of the biomass.
Agrotech LLC has harvested a section of the two- and one-half acre farm in Sacramento. The harvest yielded over 1,600 pounds of biomass which was dried and tested, then processed for classification into flower, which is expected to yield approximately 60%, and trim for both the production of CannaStripsTM and retail distribution and sales. The remainder of the farm's crop will continue to provide additional bio-mass late into November.
The harvest of the farm provided research data and further affirmation of the Company's ability to cultivate outdoors without the use of pesticides or fungicides. The harvest has received a Certificate of Analysis ("COA") confirming those positive expectations. Operationally, this harvest is evidence that the Company no longer has to rely on third party cultivations and incur the additional risk and the significant margins that reliance represents. The Company now can produce high quality cannabis without contaminates at a much lower cost outdoors, thereby reducing the cost of goods across all the product lines.
Core One Labs CEO, Brad Eckenweiler, stated, "This outdoor cultivation is one more accomplishment for the Company as it continues to build its expertise and operational structure towards a vertically integrated cannabis company from genetics and seed to the customer's doorstep." The current market in California for wholesale flower is between USD$600 and USD$1,200 per pound with a COA confirmation.
The Company will be updating the market as to the progress on the farm as new information becomes available.
In addition, the Company is announcing that it has reached an agreement with an arms-length party for a CAD$300,000 one-year unsecured convertible debenture (the "Debenture"). The principal advanced under the Debenture will accumulate interest at 6% per annum compounded monthly and may be converted, together with accrued interest, in whole, or in part, into shares of the Company's common stock at CAD$0.64 per share.

About CannaStrips™
CannaStrips™ is a formulated oral strip for effective buccal mucosal delivery that disrupts the barrier created by saliva coating the mucosal membrane for the active materials (in this case cannabinoids) which have been nanoparticulated and encapsulated to penetrate the multiple layers of mucosal and sub-mucosal membranes to the blood stream. Once in the blood stream the encapsulation is undetectable as a foreign material by the liver. This undetectability allows the material to avoid being filtered out of the blood stream by the liver. The encapsulation also is more effective in penetrating the blood-brain barrier and allowing for greater bioavailability and extending the effective time from a single dose.

The genetics for the rooms are bread by Core Isogenics Nursery located in the same facility, in the room adjacent to the cultivation rooms. All of the product grown will be either wholesaled in bulk or broken down into smaller sizes and sold under an in-house brand for the Companys affiliated Highway 395 Dispensary.

Once in the blood stream the encapsulation is undetectable as a foreign material by the liver. This undetectability allows the material to avoid being filtered out of the blood stream by the liver. The encapsulation also is more effective in penetrating the blood-brain barrier and allowing for greater bioavailability and extending the effective time from a single dose.

First GOOD news from Core One, lets hope more keeps coming
" ("COOL" or the "Company") announces that its subsidiary, Agrotech LLC, has concluded its first harvest of 1,600 pounds from its Sacramento farm and has begun processing the bio-mass.
Agrotech LLC harvested a small section of the two and one half acre farm in Sacramento. The harvest started in the beginning of August and yielded over 1,600 pounds of bio-mass which has been dried. Prior to beginning a process of classification into flower, trim and shake for both the production of CannaStrips™ and retail distribution and sales, the bio-mass will have to be tested by a third-party laboratory. The remainder of the farm's crop will provide additional harvests late into October.
The harvest of the farm has provided research data and further affirmation of the Company's ability to cultivate outdoors without the use of pesticides or fungicides. Operationally, this harvest is evidence that the Company no longer has to rely on third party cultivations and the additional risk and the significant margins they represent. The Company can produce high quality cannabis without contaminates at a much lower cost outdoors, thereby reducing the cost of goods across all product lines.
Core One Labs CEO, Brad Eckenweiler, stated, "This outdoor cultivation is one more accomplishment for the Company as we continue to build expertise and operational structure toward a vertically-integrated cannabis company from seed to the customer's door step."
The Company will be updating the market as to the progress on the farm as new information becomes available. "
