New Colombia Resources Inc Subsidiary, Sannabis, Produces First Batch of Medical Marijuana Based Products in Colombia to Fill Back Orders.
Sannabis is producing a "Made in Colombia" topical cannabis medical product for worldwide distribution through infomercials.

BOGOTA, Colombia, Oct. 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
New Colombia Resources, Inc. (NEWC) ("New Colombia or the Company"), a U.S. company with coal and other resource assets in Colombia, is pleased to announce their Colombian subsidiary, Sannabis S.A.S., has legally produced a trial run of cannabis based products on an Indian reservation. The Sannabis brand is a registered trademark of Sannabis S.A.S., a joint venture between New Colombia Resources and Juan Paolo Guzman with members of the TOEZ Indian Reservation in Caloto, Norte del Cauca, a region known for the most sought after medicinal Cannabis strains in the world.
Members of the tribe in association with Mr. Guzman have been producing the Sannabis brand of cannabis based medical products for over 2 years. Mr. Guzman is a respected member of the Colombian Medical Cannabis Community for over 20 years, spearheading a movement to medically accept Cannabis in Colombia that has little opposition.
Follow Sannabis on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/sannabis.cannamedicinal.
Their new website, www.sannabis.co will be operational soon.
New Colombia Resources is very pleased to work with the TOEZ tribe to bring these life improving products to market. Last week Sannabis produced over 700 topical products to distribute to patients in despair. Sannabis is setting up a pharmaceutical grade production line on the TOEZ reservation. They are bringing U.S. technology to this growing sector, first by purchasing machinery to make essential oils and resins which are manufactured into therapeutic medicines on the Reservation, then by documenting patients for eventual FDA or INVIMA approval of a pharmaceutical product.
Sannabis has been overwhelmed by the interest of potential distributors in all parts of Colombia. They have back orders that need to be filled. Sannabis is producing a "Made in Colombia" topical cannabis medical product for worldwide distribution through infomercials. Sannabis will continue to legally produce over the counter natural therapeutic products while following protocols to develop a pharmaceutical product.
New Colombia Resources and Sannabis were invited by Senator Juan Manuel Galan to attend a forum yesterday in the Colombian Senate titled "Use of Medical Marijuana: From Myth to Evidence." Panelists included representatives from the Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Health, Drug Agency, Universities, and others. All of the participants gave passionate opinions in favor of regulating medical marijuana as a legitimate medicine. One went as far as to suggest a new "National Cannabis Agency."
The final and most meaningful comments came from the mother of Jacobo, a 3 year old boy with Epilepsy, who said no matter what the regulators say or do, her "duty as a mother comes first." Like many children around the world with epilepsy, daily seizures along with prescribed medications that weren't working, prevented Jacobo from enjoying his childhood. A cannabis based medicine has allowed him to live a happier seizure free life.
Sannabis has developed a high CBD, low THC medicine for children with Dravet Syndrome. Some of their patients have avoided moving to Colorado because of Sannabis; other parents can't afford their products. Sannabis is developing a program for willing parents that can afford the medicine to subsidize those that can't.
"I'm ecstatic about bringing a team of experts from the U.S. and Canada to help Indian reservations develop sustainable hemp and cannabis industries, all while helping patients that before had no hope. Just like the mining industry, there are ideal conditions and a low cost of production. In Colombia the market for medical products in general is growing by the minute. It's a perfect time to market new therapeutic products, especially when they work like no other," stated John Campo, President of New Colombia Resources Inc.
Additionally, New Colombia expects approval of their environmental permit within days. As soon as the permit is approved they will begin to move material. The Company will issue a more detailed release on their mining operations at a later date.

New Colombia creates joint venture to produce cannabis and hemp based medicinal products
Published on October 9, 2014 at 9:22 AM
New Colombia Resources, Inc. (OTCQB: NEWC) ("New Colombia or the Company"), a U.S. company with coal and other resource assets in Colombia, is pleased to announce they have formed a joint venture to produce cannabis and hemp based medicinal products in Colombia in association with an indigenous community in Colombia. All of the products are produced on the indigenous reservation and commercialized under the favorable sentence C-176 of 1994 and C-882 of 2011 of the constitutional court. Constitutional Court Resolution 010 of 2013 gives territorial entities, such as indigenous reservations, the right to "govern themselves by proper authority."
Cannabis and hemp based products have been produced and sold by indigenous people in all parts of Colombia for many years. New Colombia's partner in this venture has been producing these products on indigenous reservations with miraculous results. They have many testimonials from patients who are using these products. They have topical products that treat, cancer, arthritis, and fibromyalgia. The partnership will focus strongly on producing an exceptional strain for Dravet Syndrome, much like Charlotte's Web. In addition to treating paying patients, New Colombia and its partners will form a foundation to treat underprivileged children with Dravet Syndrome and others.
New Colombia Resources will identify the indigenous community and their brand once the proper legal framework has been established. The company has received a tremendous amount of support from law makers in Colombia. Company President, John Campo, was invited on live television by a conservative senator to make a presentation in front of the Colombian Senate. Mr. Campo is documenting cases of patients that have been cured or relieved by cannabis based products produced on indigenous reservations.
Additionally, New Colombia is actively preparing their property for mining operations. They are in discussions with investment bankers to finance their coal operations. The Company is building two trailers for their rock crushing plant for added mobility and value while they await approval of their environmental permit. As soon as the permit is approved they will begin to sell material. The Company will issue a more detailed release on their mining operations.

New Colombia Resources Inc. Provides Update to Shareholders
BOGOTÁ, Colombia / ACCESSWIRE / August 19, 2014
New Colombia Resources, Inc. (OTCQB: NEWC) ("New Colombia or the Company"), a U.S. company with coal and other resource assets in Colombia, is pleased to update shareholders on the progress of their mining operations. As previously announced, New Colombia will develop a 1000 m3 per day rock quarry on their property while they bring coal operations online. The company originally expected to start quarry operations earlier this year, due to issues with a land purchase agreement, and a pending site visit, the initiation has been delayed for a few weeks.
The company received notice from the local environmental authority of a site visit for September 13, 2014. New Colombia Resources believes it is in their best interest to begin gravel operations after this inspection. They expect this visit to be the final step in the approval of their coal mining permit. The company's Work Plan (PTO) was approved on December 23, 2013. Their environmental impact plan has been under review for several months; the company believes their coal mining permit will be issued soon after the visit.
New Colombia's subsidiary, Compañía Minera San Jose Ltda., has fully paid and executed a land purchase agreement that transferred title on August 15, 2014. The company's President made a capital injection of $ 50,000 into New Colombia Resources on July 25, 2014 to facilitate this transaction. Mr. Campo will enter into a royalty agreement with the Company which will be disclosed once finalized.
In addition to the purchased greenfield, New Colombia is leasing property along national highway I-50 leading to Bogota to use as a rock depot. The processed aggregates will be trucked down from their mine using existing haul roads to the highway. From there the material will be trucked in bigger dumpers to end users. The municipality of Guaduas is finishing construction of a haul road that leads down to Colombia's largest new highway, Ruta del Sol, from their mine in 6 Km. In addition to Highway I-50, New Colombia will lease or purchase a rock yard along the new Road to the Sun.
New Colombia Resources purchased a rock crushing plant capable of producing over 100 m3 per hour. Although they received a letter of intent to purchase over 600 m3 per day in Bogota, they will pursue the closest buyer to optimize profit margins by reducing transportation costs. The company will be finalizing purchase agreements for their building materials as they get closer to production. They are materializing an operator's agreement with a third party operator of excavation equipment and dump trucks.
New Colombia Resources is featured in a print article in the current edition of Dinero Magazine, Colombia's leading financial news publication. The article focused on New Colombia's initiative to develop the first legal cannabis based pharmaceutical product in Colombia while initiating their coal operations.

Innovation Fuels New Cannabis Based Skin Care Medicines - NEWC's Pharmaceutical Partner in Discussions with City of Medellin
CORAL SPRINGS, Florida, May 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Medical Marijuana industry expansion continues as medical developments give way to new opportunities including Cannabis Based Skin Care Medicines: New Colombia Resources, Inc. (OTC: NEWC), Cannabis Science, Inc. (OTC: CBIS), Hemp, Inc. (OTC: HEMP), Nuvilex, Inc. (OTC: NVLX), and Tranzbyte Corporation (OTC: ERBB)
New Colombia Resources, Inc. (OTCQB: NEWC), a U.S. company with coal and other resource assets in Colombia, is pleased to announce they are in discussions with their pharmaceutical partner in Colombia to enter to an innovation program offered by the City of Medellín. The Ruta N organization was created to promote the development of innovative science and technology-based businesses in the city of Medellin, the winner in 2013 of the world's "Innovative City of Year" award by the Wall Street Journal and Citi.
New Colombia Resources' Medellin based pharmaceutical partner, Farmatech S.A., is meeting with Ruta N to establish the protocols needed to enter the program. Ruta N has created various projects and programs that articulate research and high-impact entrepreneurship by supporting innovative initiatives that have great potential in the global market. For more information on the Ruta N program visit http://rutanmedellin.org/index.php/en

New Colombia is in discussions with Cannabis Science Inc. (OTCQB: CBIS) to oversee this program along with their scientific advisor Dr. Robert Melamede, President of Cannabis Science Inc. (CBIS). "This program will benefit our efforts for approvals for research and development of legal cannabis based pharmaceutical products in Colombia," stated John Campo, President of New Colombia Resource, Inc.
Hemp, Inc. (OTC Pink: HEMP) announced today that it has purchased a whole line of automated Temafa decortication equipment designed to separate the fiber from the core of the hemp plant through a process known as decortication. The Temafa decortication line of equipment, the only one of its kind in the United States, purchased by Hemp, Inc. will now enable the company to process raw hemp for American farmers into two valuable base products (fiber and hurd) that can both yield hundreds of products. The equipment is currently located at a plant in North Carolina. Hemp, Inc. is set to move the equipment to a more suitable location such as Kentucky, Tennessee, South Carolina, North Carolina, or the Georgia area. "This purchase of decortication equipment was a critical step in order for Hemp, Inc. to help Americans transition from non-sustainable synthetic solutions to a hemp-based green solution. We are very excited at what we'll be able to achieve once our manufacturing facility ramps its hemp production volume up over the next few years," said Perlowin, CEO of Hemp, Inc.
Nuvilex, Inc. (OTCQB: NVLX) recently announced that it signed an agreement with the University of Northern Colorado to perform initial studies in the development of cancer treatments that combine the proprietary live-cell encapsulation technology Cell-in-a-Box® with constituents of cannabis known as cannabinoids. It was another quiet announcement that seemed to fly under the radar, and maybe purposely so, as Nuvilex is a biotechnology firm that wants to stay just that, but at the same time, the company wants to use all available tools to potentially improve its own cancer treatments and, in turn, potentially save lives. And that means medical marijuana needs to be an option given it has proven it has medicinal properties. So, in what has been Nuvilex's modus operandi over the last year or so, the company has sought out cannabis industry professionals in an attempt to position itself as a leader in medical marijuana. Unlike many companies that reside permanently in the cannabis space, putting out news daily with no substance and seemingly no end in sight to the claims, Nuvilex has methodically put together a world class Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) at its wholly owned subsidiary Medical Marijuana Sciences.
Tranzbyte Corporation (OTC Pink: ERBB) attracts established and early growth businesses seeking to take advantage of resources through the public capital markets and provides them capital, legal, accounting, and public relations resources. Tranzbyte recently announced that it will change its corporate name to AMERICAN GREEN™. The name change should be effective sometime within the next several weeks and is subject to review by FINRA and The State of Nevada. ERBB closed down on Monday (5/19/2014) at $0.021 on Heavy Volume Trading over 89 Million shares by the market close.

"The U.S. federal government, legislators, law enforcement officers and many healthcare professionals often use the "lack of clinical trials" with cannabis as a legitimate reason for continuing the marijuana prohibition.

I believe legal clinical trials of Cannabis based medicines in Colombia will not only help Colombian cancer patients but will greatly benefit our efforts in the U.S.," stated Dr. Janet Sweeney PhD, co-founder of the Phoenix Tears Foundation.

New Colombia Resources Inc. Appoints Dr. Robert Melamede PhD as Scientific Advisor for Research and Approval of Cannabis Based Pharmaceutical Products in Colombia
SUNNY ISLES BEACH, FL -- (Marketwired) -- 04/22/14 --
New Colombia Resources, Inc. (OTCQB: NEWC) ("New Colombia" or "the Company"), a U.S. company with coal and other resource assets in Colombia, is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Robert J. Melamede PhD, President of Cannabis Science, Inc., as a scientific advisor to gain approval to legally research and market cannabis based pharmaceutical products in Colombia and other Latin American countries. The Company is discussing a collaborative effort with Cannabis Science, Inc.
Dr. Melamede, retired Chairman of the Biology department of the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, is a world renowned leader in Cannabis research with many years investigating the human body's endocannabinoid system and its reaction to cannabinoids. Dr. Melamede has made many presentations around the globe explaining the benefits of cannabinoids for cancer patients.
"I am thrilled to finally start this project in Colombia given its history and rising economic standing on the world stage. Many patients in Latin America will benefit from the research done in Colombia," stated Dr. Robert Melamede PhD.
New Colombia Resources will form a joint venture to include U.S. and Colombian investors, universities, and pharmaceutical partners. New Colombia will work closely with government agencies to allow them permission to conduct research of cannabis based formulations. They will hire a reputable law firm to handle government approvals, lobbying, and public relations. The joint venture will conduct studies in different regions of Colombia with high incidences of the specific illness for which treatment is being researched without regard to socio-economic status. New Colombia Resources will lead the effort to gain approval from INVIMA (National Institute of Food & Drug Vigilance) to market these products in Colombia and other Latin American countries.
"Dr. Melamede and I have been discussing research in Colombia for a few years and we feel now is the right time, I'm very happy to work with him again. As a Colombian American I truly believe this is a project of national interest for Colombia. We will make every effort to follow strict international standards in our studies working with universities, research institutions, and pharmaceutical partners throughout Colombia," stated John Campo President of New Colombia Resources, Inc.
The venture will focus its initial efforts on a skin cancer cream and treatments for epilepsy including Dravet syndrome in children. The company will produce a high cannabinoid (CBD) strain low in tetra hydrochloride (THC) similar to the "Charlotte's Web" strain being used in Colorado. Families of children with Dravet Syndrome have been moving to Colorado to legally gain access to these strains and administer it to their children with miraculous results. New Colombia Resources will work with pharmaceutical companies to manufacture products with controlled doses like all INVIMA approved medicines.
Colombia has surpassed Argentina as the third largest economy in Latin America behind Brazil and Mexico. The government of Colombia is injecting US$ 25 Billion into the economy through infrastructure investments in an effort to unleash an economic growth spurt. New Colombia Resources will be a direct beneficiary of these investments by supplying raw building materials for these projects and using the new infrastructure to transport their high quality metallurgical coal to export markets. The Company will provide an update of their rock and coal mining operations in the coming days.
