Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - December 4, 2025) - Doubleview Gold Corp. (TSXV: DBG) (OTCQB: DBLVF) (FSE: 1D4) ("Doubleview" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from drill holes H097, H098, and H099 from its 2025 drill program at the Hat Polymetallic Deposit in northwestern British Columbia. Drill holes H097, H098 and H099 were collared from the same platform as drill holes H093-H096 and were drilled into previously untested potential extensions of the deposit and have successfully expanded the mineralized footprint approximately 100m laterally and 200 meters vertically and strengthened confidence in continuity in part of the Lisle Zone.HighlightsH099 returned 438.0 metres of 0.40% CuEq, including 52.0 metres of 1.02% CuEq, representing one of the strongest continuous mineralized intervals drilled at the Hat deposit to date.H097 and H098 confirm mineralization in previously undrilled sections and extend data approximately 200-300 metres down-dip and up to 100 metres laterally and fill important gaps in the geological exploration model. Drill holes H097, H098 and H099 when integrated into the database potentially will extend the 2024 conceptual open-pit shell by ~200 metres down-dip and up to 100 metres laterally, and demonstrate strong expansion potential that may be realized in the revised version of the 2024 Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE-2) and the Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).Drill hole analyses reported in this News Release show continuity of copper-gold-cobalt-scandium domains [scandium is an emerging critical metal and an important component of the Hat deposit], across broad intervals of the system.These drill holes support the Company's objective to complete an up-dated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE-2) and a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) and improve confidence in the exploration model all of which will be incorporated in the current and future engineering studies *Copper Equivalent (CuEq) values exclude scandium (Sc2O3).*Table 1: Summary of Significant % CuEq Drill Core Intercepts Summary of Significant Drill Core InterceptsDDH From (m)To (m)Length (m)CuEq (%) Excl.

Although collared from the same surface location, the drill holes highlighted in this News Release extended the dimensions of the deposit 200-300 metres at depth and up to 100 metres laterally, successfully fulfilling the objective of characterizing untested volumes of the deposit.Expansion of Conceptual Pit PotentialThe strong continuity and grade distribution observed in drill hole H099, together with similar results from H097 and H098, extend the interpreted geometry of the mineralized body and potentially allow major extensions of the conceptual pit by approximately 200 metres vertically and ~100 metres laterally. Note: the current exploration model and conceptual pit design are based on available information and may not be supported by future drilling and engineering studies.Continuity & Resource ConfidenceThe drill holes included in this News Release were planned to improve the interpretation of deposit geology and strengthen the block model used for resource estimates. The results confirm both lateral and vertical continuity of the system and will contribute to higher confidence resource categories as the model is updated.High-Grade Domains and Depth PotentialDrill hole H099 is particularly important as it highlights a strongly mineralized area of copper, et al. metals, including more than 50 metres exceeding 1.0% CuEq, and demonstrates that high-grade zones continue to depth. The extent of such high-grade zones has not been determined.Critical Metals: Scandium & CobaltWhile scandium (Sc2O3) is not included in CuEq calculations, scandium grades remain consistent with prior drill campaigns and continue to frame the Hat Deposit as a potentially significant North American source of critical metals.CEO CommentsFarshad Shirvani, President and CEO, commented: "These new step-out holes continue to validate and strengthen our geological model of the Hat Deposit. H099, in particular, delivered exceptional continuity with long and high-grade sections, confirming that the Lisle Zone remains robust at depth. The drilling extended mineralization into untested areas and demonstrated expansion potential for the conceptual pit by approximately 200 metres down-dip and 100 metres laterally.These results reaffirm our confidence in the Hat model, highlight the presence of high-grade domains, and demonstrate meaningful depth potential. Importantly, the new holes help us improve resource confidence and will be incorporated into the upcoming resource estimation work. We are very encouraged by the consistent scandium and cobalt values across the system, strengthening Hat's profile as a strategic critical-metals project in British Columbia. Our team is already planning follow-up drilling into several newly opened areas."Figure 1 - Drill Plan MapA surface plan map showing locations of H097, H098, and H099 relative to earlier holes (H090-H096), plotted on top of the 3D Induced Polarization (IP) chargeability model.

The Gourmet’s Guide: Using Your TravelKon eSIM to Hunt for Japan’s Best Ramen, Sushi, and Street Food

SYDNEY, AU, Dec 4, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - You have seen the videos and read the blogs. Now you are finally planning your own food pilgrimage to Japan. We are talking about that perfect, silky bowl of ramen, sushi that melts in your mouth, and hot takoyaki straight from the griddle.But let us be honest for a second. The difference between a good food trip and an absolutely epic one often comes down to one simple thing: can you actually find the place? And when you do, do you know what you are ordering?That is where a bit of modern tech makes all the difference. Here is how to use your phone, and a TravelKon eSIM, to eat your way through Japan like a pro.Never Walk Past the Best Meal of Your TripThe wildest thing about Japan's food scene is that the best spots are often hidden. We are talking about a noodle shop with no English sign down a back alley in Shinjuku, or a tiny sushi counter in a Tokyo subway station.Your map app is your best mate here. But it is useless if it is buffering. With a reliable local data connection, you can navigate in real time, right to the door. Even better, you can be spontaneous. See a huge line of locals? A quick search can tell you if they are queueing for the city's best tonkatsu or just a new phone shop.A TravelKon Japan eSIM on a proper Japanese network like Docomo or KDDI means no more guessing. Your maps just work, turning your phone into a reliable compass pointing directly to deliciousness.Order the Good Stuff, Not the Mystery ItemYou have found an incredible-looking izakaya, a casual pub. It is packed with locals, the atmosphere is buzzing and the menu is a full sheet of Kanji with no pictures. Now what?Whip out your phone and use the camera function on Google Translate. Just point it at the menu, and it will overlay the English translation right on your screen. Now you can confidently order the famous local sea urchin, instead of accidentally pointing to something more adventurous.This magic trick needs a solid, fast data connection to work instantly. A dodgy connection means a delayed, jumbled translation. With your Japan eSIM, you can decode any menu on the spot, turning a moment of panic into a fun part of the experience.Share Your Food Without Waiting for Hotel Wi-FiLet us be honest, that beautifully crafted sushi platter or that steaming bowl of ramen is a work of art. You want to share it with your friends back home now, not six hours later when you are back on the hotel's patchy Wi-Fi.Post that video of the sizzling okonomiyaki to your Story right from the table. Livestream the sushi chef's masterful skills for a minute. Upload your 4K reel of Osaka's Dotonbori street food scene that night.This is where data plans matter. If you are a big sharer, you will want a Japan eSIM with plenty of data, or even an unlimited plan, so you never have to think twice about it. It lets you document your trip in the moment, when the excitement is freshest.Get Out of Town and Find the Real GemsThe culinary adventures in Japan do not stop at the city limits. In fact, some of the best finds are in regional areas. Think the incredible Hida beef in Takayama, the fresh seafood in Hokkaido's markets, or the unique street food at a local matsuri, or festival.Use your data to research regional specialties and check train times for a spontaneous day trip. Find that famous soba shop in the mountains everyone talks about.Many cheap Japan SIMs or roaming plans have weak coverage outside major cities. A TravelKon Japan eSIM on a major network means you are just as connected in a small town in Kyoto prefecture as you are in downtown Tokyo, giving you the confidence to explore further.Keep It Simple: Your Connection SortedThe easiest way to make this all happen is with an eSIM. You just scan a QR code to install it before you go, and you are online minutes after you land at Narita or Haneda. No faffing about at a SIM card vending machine.Think about how you travel. If you're planning to go hard on the social posts, an Unlimited Japan eSIM means you can share every bite without ever slowing down. Or, if you're also popping over to Korea or Taiwan, a multi-country Asia eSIM has you covered for the whole trip. And if you just need maps and translations to get by, a flexible data pack will do the trick perfectly and save you some cash for an extra meal or two.Your dream food trip to Japan is waiting. With your phone properly connected, you can spend less time getting lost and more time tracking down that perfect, life-changing bite.Ready to eat your way through Japan? Check out TravelKon's Japan eSIMs and find the right one for your adventure.About TravelKonTravelKon is an Australian company with a simple goal: to provide reliable and affordable connectivity for travellers. Since our founding in 2019, we've built partnerships with leading telecom operators across the globe, offering eSIM data plans in over 180 destinations worldwide.Media Contact:Brenda - PR & Communications Managermedia@travelkon.com.au | +61 412 718 829SOURCE: TravelKon Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Eisai Presents New Data on the Continued and Expanding Benefit of LEQEMBI(R) (lecanemab-irmb) Maintenance Treatment in Early Alzheimer’s Disease at CTAD 2025

TOKYO and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec 4, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) -  Eisai Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Tokyo, CEO: Haruo Naito, "Eisai") and Biogen Inc. (Nasdaq: BIIB, Corporate headquarters: Cambridge, Massachusetts, CEO: Christopher A. Viehbacher, "Biogen") announced today that the latest findings on time savings with continued treatment with humanized anti-soluble aggregated amyloid-beta (Aβ) monoclonal antibody lecanemab (generic name, U.S. brand name LEQEMBI®)  were presented at the 18th Clinical Trials on Alzheimer's Disease (CTAD) Conference. Additionally, a scientific symposium was held on the subcutaneous formulation (SC-AI), which was approved for maintenance treatment in the United States in August 2025, and the rolling supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for initiation treatment was completed in November 2025. The application for a subcutaneous injectable formulation in Japan was submitted in November 2025.Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive, relentless disease with Aβ and tau as hallmarks, that is caused by a continuous underlying neurotoxic process driven by protofibrils* (PF) that begins before amyloid plaque removal and continues afterward.1,2,3 Only LEQEMBI fights AD in two ways - targeting both PF and amyloid plaque, which can impact tau downstream. Estimating the 10-Year Time-Savings Benefits of Lecanemab Treatment (Presentation: December 3, 2:40 PM PT)This analysis used data from the Clarity AD open-label extension (OLE) and 16 clinical studies of monoclonal antibodies for AD to estimate long-term AD progression over 10 years and the slowing effect of continued lecanemab treatment. The analysis evaluated estimated "time savings" (slowing of disease progression) compared to natural decline based on ADNI** (Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative) data (untreated group), using Clinical Dementia Rating - Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB). These results suggest that early initiation and long-term lecanemab treatment may continue to slow AD progression and help maintain cognitive function over a longer period.Findings from each group:Time Savings from Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) Due to AD to Mild ADThe time to progression from MCI due to AD to mild AD was 7.2 years in the untreated group, whereas with continued LEQEMBI treatment to the onset of moderate AD, progression to mild AD took 9.7 years, indicating a time savings of 2.5 years.In the low-amyloid group (patients who started treatment at an early stage: amyloid PET <60 centiloids), the time to progression from MCI to mild AD was 13.2 years with continued LEQEMBI treatment to the onset of moderate AD, suggesting a time savings of 6.0 years.Time Savings from MCI due to AD to Moderate ADThe time to progression from MCI  due to AD to moderate AD was 10.1 years in the untreated group, whereas with continued LEQEMBI treatment to the onset of moderate AD, progression to moderate AD took 13.6 years, indicating a time savings of 3.5 years.In the low-amyloid group, the time to progression with continued LEQEMBI treatment to the onset of moderate AD, progression to moderate AD took 18.4 years, suggesting a time savings of 8.3 years.These findings indicate that earlier initiation of lecanemab treatment may provide a greater delay in disease progression. Furthermore, each additional year on LEQEMBI could further delay disease progression compared to stopping treatment, even long after plaque is expected to have been cleared.Lecanemab Subcutaneous Formulation for Treatment Initiation in Early Alzheimer’s Disease: Optimizing Patient Care with a Potential New Option (Symposium Presentation: December 3, 3:10 PM)In this symposium, the latest data from the lecanemab subcutaneous clinical development program were presented focusing on treatment initiation, including results from the subcutaneous (SC) formulation subcohort (n=273) in the Clarity AD trial open-label extension (OLE).. It was shown that weekly administration of lecanemab SC-AI at 500 mg (two 250 mg injections) demonstrated bioequivalence in drug exposure compared to intravenous dosing of 10 mg/kg every two weeks (exposure ratio: 104%, 90% CI: 99.1%–109%).Based on clinical data and modeling analysis, the effect on amyloid removal in the brain and safety (ARIA-E incidence) was shown to be independent of the route of administration and explained by exposure, suggesting that weekly 500 mg SC dosing provides similar efficacy and safety to biweekly 10 mg/kg IV dosing. Additionally, ARIA-E incidence was also predicted to be comparable between SC and IV administration (12.4% overall, 30.9% in ApoE4 homozygotes).In this sub-cohort which had prior exposure to lecanemab, safety evaluation showed systemic infusion reactions occurred in 0% of patients receiving 500 mg SC, all of whom had previously received IV lecanemab, and 1.4% of patients who initiated on 720 mg SC by vial, which is favorable compared to systemic infusion reactions in the IV group (26.4%). Immunogenicity assessment indicated a low incidence of anti-drug antibodies (ADA) at 1.4%.These results indicate that the subcutaneous formulations of lecanemab, designed with consideration for the convenience of patients and their care partners, maintains efficacy with a low incidence of systemic infusion reactions, and is otherwise equivalent to conventional IV administration.Eisai serves as the lead for lecanemab’s development and regulatory submissions globally with Eisai and Biogen co-commercializing and co-promoting the product and Eisai having final decision-making authority.* Protofibrils are thought to be the most toxic Aβ species that contribute to brain damage in AD and play a major role in the cognitive decline of this progressive and devastating disease. Protofibrils can cause neuronal and synaptic damage in the brain, which can subsequently adversely affect cognitive function through multiple mechanisms.3 The mechanism by which this occurs has been reported not only by increasing the formation of insoluble Aβ plaques, but also by directly damaging signaling between neurons and other cells. It is believed that reducing protofibrils may reduce neuronal damage and cognitive impairment, potentially preventing the progression of AD. 4** ADNI is a clinical research project launched in 2005 to develop methods to predict the onset and progression of AD and to confirm the effectiveness of treatments. The project involves a multi-year longitudinal observation targeting healthy elderly individuals as well as patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and early stages of AD.MEDIA CONTACTSEisaiEisai Co., Ltd.Public Relations DepartmentTEL: +81 (0)3-3817-5120Eisai Europe, Ltd.EMEA Communications Department+44 (0) 7974-879-419Emea-comms@eisai.netEisai Inc.

Oman’s 10-Year Golden Residency Program Attracts Global Investors Seeking Stability and Long-Term Access

Muscat, Oman, Dec 4, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Three months after its introduction, Oman's 10-Year Golden Residency is emerging as one of the region's most compelling long-term residency pathways, attracting rising interest from investors, entrepreneurs, and internationally mobile families seeking stability, transparent regulation, and strategic access to high-growth markets. The programme-launched under Oman Vision 2040-offers a structured framework for investors wishing to establish deeper roots in a country positioning itself as a secure and globally connected economic hub.The Golden Residency grants eligible applicants long-term residency in return for a minimum investment of USD 520,000 across seven clearly defined routes. These include owning completed real estate units within Integrated Tourism Complexes; establishing a company registered in Oman; purchasing government development bonds; investing in securities listed on the Muscat Stock Exchange; or placing a fixed-term deposit in a licensed Omani bank for a minimum of five years. Applicants may also qualify by owning a company that employs at least 50 Omani nationals or through nomination under Oman's Foreign Capital Investment Law, provided the company's capital meets the required threshold.A defining feature of the programme is its family-centric design. Approved applicants can sponsor their spouse and children of any age, secure additional property outside tourism zones, and employ up to three domestic workers without a local sponsor. The residency also includes fast-track immigration lanes and expanded visit visas for extended family members. These benefits-rare in many global residency schemes-position Oman as a destination offering long-term security as well as an inclusive, predictable environment for families.The application system is fully digital, enabling applicants worldwide to upload documents, track applications, and engage directly with dedicated relationship managers. The programme is supported by Migrate World, which provides due-diligence verification and relocation support to align the onboarding process with international investor-migration standards. The streamlined model reflects Oman's broader institutional push toward efficiency, transparency, and unified investor services.Oman's geographic position at the junction of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East continues to be a central factor in global interest. With access to more than 2.6 billion consumers and direct links to major trade routes, the country is increasingly viewed as a stable base for regional operations. Strong regulatory institutions, long-standing political neutrality, and one of the world's most stable currencies further reinforce investor confidence. Quality-of-life indicators are also contributing to global demand, with Oman ranking among the top countries worldwide for safety, climate, and purchasing power.Officials note that the programme is already complementing national efforts to attract talent and capital into priority sectors. Pathways requiring the employment of Omani nationals support the country's human-capital goals, while mandatory audits strengthen governance and operational standards among participating companies. Early interest from investors in renewable energy, logistics, advanced manufacturing, tourism, and mining aligns closely with Oman's diversification agenda under Vision 2040.As competition intensifies across global residency and citizenship programmes, Oman is positioning its model as long-term, reliable, and partnership-driven. While other regional initiatives rely heavily on short-term incentives, Oman's approach-grounded in regulatory clarity, economic stability, and a family-focused design-is steadily gaining recognition in international investment circles. Three months into its rollout, early indicators suggest the programme is on track to become a key driver of Oman's investment attractiveness in the years ahead.Further details and the full application process are available at: https://omanresidence.gov.om/About Invest OMAN:Invest Oman is the Sultanate's official gateway for strategic investment, offering investors unified access to opportunities across priority sectors aligned with Oman Vision 2040.
