Tara Gold Resources (fka TRGD)

[Sam Dan]

Absolutely nothing!! I must have been sleep- writing as IP is another sad story. Sorry

[LaoTsu]

What does IPNFF have to do with TRGD?

Does Tara Gold still own the property at Don Ramon? IF so, why has it not been sold or developed?

Yes, I know... this board is as dead as the company... just wondering... I, like so many others, got hosed by the crooks or TARA/TRGD

[Sam Dan]

This could be HUGE for IP

"Imagination Park Technologies Inc. (CSE: IP) (OTC: IPNFF) (“Imagination Park” or the “Company”), the Company bringing augmented reality experiences to consumers and sports fans globally, today announced that Orange County Community College (“SUNY Orange”), will be the first North American college to implement a student recruitment augmented reality campaign. Imagination Park will enable SUNY Orange students to point their phones at logos, signs, posters and landmarks on and around campus to view or retrieve school news, updates, retailer coupons, messages, videos and more. After downloading Imagination Park’s XenoPlay™, the app presents students with a new world of interactive entertainment options while at SUNY Orange campuses in Middletown and Newburgh, New York.

“We plan on using augmented reality in conjunction with our students’ return to campus in August in order to enhance their SUNY Orange experience,” said Vinnie Cazzetta, SUNY Orange’s Vice President for Institutional Advancement. “We host a series of events that welcome new and returning students alike back to our campuses. In conjunction with those events, and throughout the semester, we’ll use augmented reality to help direct students to those support services that are so critical to their academic success.”

“SUNY Orange is the first college in North America to use Imagination Park’s augmented reality to improve campus experiences for students,” said Alen Paul Silverrstieen, CEO of Imagination Park. “SUNY Orange’s planned campaigns will help engage and retain students, a truly amazing and unique use case of our AR platform that we had not envisioned before and believe will have broad interest on campuses across North America.”

The Imagination Park XenoHolographic™ product suite provides SUNY Orange access to its own CMS (Content Management System) with XenoCloud™, automatic conversion of 2D/3D objects into dynamic AR objects for iOS and Android, virtual AR-based scavenger hunts, and student engagement reporting to refine campaigns and further engage users.

As I stated early last year management of IP has decided that the company's future was best served by concentrating in the ar/Ir division and basically abandon the other projects. Thus, the announcement today of changes in the Board and some resignations.
The update on the increased emphasis on obtaining a revenue-producing project gives us HOPE that such projects will save the company.
We can always hope.
" or the "Company"),announces the resignations of Mr. John Gillberry, Director of the Company and Mr. Jim Skippen, Chairman of the Board and Director of the Company, effective today. Both Mr. Gillberry and Mr. Skippen have resigned in order to focus on other opportunities.

The Company is also pleased to announce the appointments of Mr. Sheldon Inwentash as Chairman of the Board and Mr. Alen Paul Silverrstieen as Board Director. Mr. Silverrstieen will continue to also serve as President and CEO of the Company.

"On behalf of the Board, I want to thank Mr. Gillberry and Mr. Skippen for their support and contributions of the year, especially for securing our intellectual property. We wish them both continued success in their future endeavours," said Mr. Inwentash. "At this stage of the Company's development we have chosen to focus on commercialization of the technology rather than emphasizing patent licensing or technology transfer. I recently sat down with management and am very excited about Imagination Park's future growth potential and look forward to driving shareholder value for all investors. Augmented Reality is an exciting new engagement and branding platform that has significant applications in sports, retail, advertising and promotion throughout North America."

Corporate Update

Management has been completely focused on commercializing its augmented reality software solutions, concentrating on key end markets where augmented reality can have a significant impact, including sports, retail, advertising and promotion. To date, feedback has been very strong from end customers, advertising agencies and channel partners.

"We have experienced significant demonstration requests for our AR platform since January. Our latest version update of XenoPlayTM, version 3.3, includes significant features and functions that have advanced our platform as compared to our competition," said President and CEO Alen Paul Silverrstieen. "With the Company's recent financial raise, we are well capitalized for 2019 to drive sales and revenue."

New Sales and Marketing Initiatives

With the confirmation that partners and customers are interested in potentially moving forward with trial campaigns and eventually using the platform on a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) basis, the Company has recently increased its sales and marketing activity to drive sales. Management has engaged a New York-based PR firm to position the Company as the leader in Augmented Reality and added key new sales executives to focus on the Company's focused end markets. Jonathan Mariner, the former CFO of MLB and Simon Schatzmann have both joined the Company and are already actively speaking with prospective customers and advancing opportunities for the Company.

Over the last month management has been actively advancing engagements with both partners and customers and is currently in discussions with prospects to start using the platform for promotion, advertising or customer engagement. These opportunities are primarily focused in sports, advertising, real estate, and fundraising.

Given Augmented Reality is a new market and requires significant education, the Company is very encouraged by the initial feedback it is receiving about its platform and its ease of use, cloud content management and specific applications that customers believe will deliver significant ROI. While initial trials are needed to prove this ROI to our initial customers, eventually these case studies are anticipated to reduce the sales cycle and lead to long-term recurring SaaS revenues.

XenoPlayTM, version 3.3 Adds New Features and Functionality

In February 2019, Imagination Park completed upgrades to version 3.3 of XenoPlayTM. New features and functions include the following:

--OnDemand AR

--AR Stories Competition with Scoreboard

--XenoPlayTM Proprietary App Login

--Extended White Labelling Capabilities

--Full Screen Video Activation and Playback

--Improved Social Media Sharing

Hate to tell you this but Tara Gold was sold to another entity and their plans never worked out. Firma has NO connection with Tara Gold.
This happened at least 4 years ago!!

[LaoTsu]

I still encourage all my fellow bagholders to file a complaint with the SEC. The management of this company are corrupt, IMHO, as are the previous big pump and dumpers here. Why have they not tried to get re-listed, and failing that... to sell out the remaining properties, etc, to another miner? Look at the insane attempts to get into gelato, food packaging and other companies failed projects...

can you smell the BIG CON???

[Sam Dan]

Finally some positive assay results from Thompson,Manitoba
EXPLORATION UPDATE -- IMPORTANT ZONES OF SPODUMENE (LITHIUM) MINERALIZATION CONFIRMED AT THOMPSON BROS LITHIUM PROJECT

Ashburton Ventures Inc.'s first six diamond drill holes have been completed at the Thompson Bros. lithium project in Manitoba. Four of the holes have encountered significant intervals of spodumene (lithium-bearing mineral) mineralization at downhole widths varying from 1 to 22 m and averaging 10 m (Figure 1). The intersections represent downhole widths, with the true widths not yet determined. Table 1 displays the correlation between the historical drill holes and first six holes drilled by Quantum Resources that are considered the closest approximation to "twin holes" (Figure 2). Despite differences in azimuths and dips, the table data implies apparent spodumene-rich intersection widths and depths of the same magnitude. Assay results for the first six holes are pending. The project is financed by Quantum Resources Limited (ASX: "QUR") who has the right to earn in up to 80% of the project.

Drill targets were selected using historic drill hole information. Quantum prepared a sequence of drill holes along a series of section lines to intersect the pegmatite at varying depths along the strike length (Figure 2). Drill holes will step out 100 metres apart along section lines spaced 100 metres apart running northwest-southeast.

Rapidly warming conditions have led to an earlier than expected winter thaw and the Company has made the decision to suspend the current program. It is anticipated that drilling will recommence at the end of May. Quantum will be able to continue drilling the prospect in a cost-effective manner in the summer months without the use of continued helicopter support. The target area is more accessible in the summer months due to its location near the shore of Wekusko Lake. In addition, Quantum is initiating plans for a work program to test for additional pegmatite dykes with a focus on the Thompson #5 and Sherritt-Gordon Zones which could lead to significantly larger overall tonnages.

The Thompson Bros. Lithium Property is located in Wekusko Lake, 20km east of the mining community of Snow Lake, Manitoba. The lithium deposit is defined by a vertically-dipping spodumene-rich pegmatite extending 800 meters along strike.

"We are very encouraged with progress made to date on this strong lithium asset in Ashburton's portfolio. Having this project managed and financed by our financing partner in Australia gives us the time and resources to concentrate on our Z-1 zeolite endeavours." stated Mike England, CEO of Ashburton Ventures.

[Sam Dan]

TARA GOLD files its second quarter 10Q
Reads with the usual 'boiler plate ' disclaimers re only ability to raise money will assure success.
Fairly brief discussions of intents. Hopefully we will see more information once the shares become listed

"The Company will need to raise a substantial amount of capital in order to continue its business plan. Management intends to initiate their business plan in late 2015 which includes the establishment of a strong foothold in the marketplace for income producing “small mine” operations along with advanced real estate income and growth. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty."
"
Our new appointed management seeks to establish a strong foothold in the marketplace for income producing “small mine” operations along with advanced real estate income and growth.

Our new officers and directors bring us over 125 years of experience in mine management and exploration in geology, reserve development, metallurgy, permitting, mine health and safety, and production. In addition, the real estate team brings in over 110 years of experience in real estate development, management, finance, and construction.

The management team and board of directors have identified near term acquisitions in both mine operations with historical production and data as well as income producing real estate to balance out the new anticipated portfolio of properties under consideration.

Our initiatives for 2015 are to acquire income-producing assets that generate sales in the first year of operation and improve the asset base of the company."

"
On August 1, 2015 the Company entered into a line of credit with a related part for an undetermined amount for one (1) year, 15% interest. Upon execution of the line of credit, Company borrowed $27,759, and may borrow additional amounts through the first year of operations of the borrower. In association with this line of credit, Tara Gold issued an option to purchase shares which expires 3 years from the date of grant; are not exercisable until the common stock is trading; assets with the related party are incorporated into the Company. The option exercise price is 50% of the average closing price of Tara Gold’s shares for the twenty trading days preceding the option exercise date but no less than $0.25 per share and the total exercise price may not exceed $320,000."

Lets hope their efforts to attain listing occurs SOON !!!

Hopefully it won't take too long.

WE MAY STILL BE ALIVE!!

All TRGD shareholders who should read TRGD 10K just issued.

First interesting comment is"Our new appointed management seeks to establish a strong foothold in the marketplace for income producing “small mine” operations along with advanced real estate income and growth.

Further from 10K
O n July 18, 2011, the Securities and Exchange Commission revoked our registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and our stock ceased to trade. In 2012, we filed a Form 10 which cleared SEC comments on November 21, 2012. To trade again, we will need to work with a securities broker to complete the filings required by FINRA.

As of April 20, 2015 we had 102,795,119 outstanding shares of common stock and 76 shareholders of record. As of that same date we did not have any outstanding options, warrants or securities which were convertible into shares of our common stock.

"I am hearing rumblings from people in Dixie that may be very
positive for thw future of TRGD. There have been a number of Form 3 registered with SEC of new persons who have holdings in TRGD. At least one said he was a director. The new owners are in the process of completing a 20 MILLION dollar PP. They are planning an extensive exploration of the Ponderosa property { not sure they will keep the name Ponderosa.
If successful long suffering TRGD shareholders may actually be rewarded. The number of rumors share price action is too large to for me to give any credibility. But anything is better than nothing.
First step is to see a registration for trading of the shares. All we can do is hope

[Sam Dan]

Shareholders of TRGD that received FRMA shares should look at today"s PR re FRMA newest acquisition as it looks very exciting

[Sam Dan]

New management of TRGD has filed
for an extension of 15 days -[April 15] before filing their year end 10K.

Here is news we have been waiting for. Encouraging
Firma Holdings Corp. (OTCQB: FRMA) is pleased to provide an update on its wholly owned SmartPac Global division. Significant progress has been made towards establishing the SmartPac packaging system as a global solution to the problems of decay, moisture loss, infestation and food-borne disease that are common in the fresh produce industry. Firma has successfully completed several SmartPac demonstrations through shipments to major retailers and distributors in Europe and Asia. Retailers have confirmed the economic and product quality enhancement attributes provided by the SmartPac system and are now actively engaged in material fulfillment discussions. Due to the overwhelming positive response, Firma has engaged strategic global carton manufacturers to establish an infrastructure that will be able to support pending, as well as forecasted, demand for the SmartPac technology.

Firma engaged the services of a global distribution and logistics expert to introduce and enlist end users to its patented SmartPac solution. This included major destination importers, retailers and food service distributors, in both Europe and Asia. The objective was to introduce and properly communicate the significant value propositions offered by the SmartPac packaging system. As a result of these meetings, Firma was engaged to demonstrate the performance by shipping asparagus, avocados, limes, and honeydew melons, in SmartPac cartons, to Japan and Europe. The demonstrations resulted in reducing transportation costs, reducing spoilage and handling costs, while enabling consumers to enjoy better tasting fresh food.

Firma's core patented technology, SmartPac, is a complete system for the preservation of fresh fruit, vegetables, and flowers during extended periods of shipping and storage, using Modified Active Atmosphere Packaging technology. The SmartPac packaging technology is protected by patents throughout the world.

Clients, engaged to date, import high value fresh fruit and vegetables from long distances, including the US, Mexico, Peru and Chile. As one recent example, avocado fruit was shipped to Japan and the condition of the fruit was evaluated upon arrival by both the importer and SmartPac Global representatives. The avocado fruit using SmartPac technology was found to have arrived in superior condition, and with less weight loss, when compared to standard cartons. Demonstration of SmartPac's clear value propositions has resulted in requests for additional shipments and supply chain preparations for meeting scaled demand.

With these demonstrations, Firma has confirmed that the market demands an effective "per carton" solution that enables the retailer to capture and eliminate the costs associated with transportation and decay related waste generated in their fruits and vegetables supply chains. As a result, in addition to seeking to fulfill current market requests and developing custom packaging, the company is currently expanding its global dynamic demonstrations.

About Firma Holdings Corp. (http://www.FirmaHoldings.com)

Firma recently acquired intellectual property for the preservation and protection of fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers during extended periods of shipping and storage. The patented technology, known as "SmartPac," is a bulk produce packaging system available for world-wide generic industry applications. In addition, the company's mining division holds mining projects that encompass over 45,000 acres of mining concessions.

[Dugger]

Let's hope it's a something positive. I can't imagine any change that could hurt the stock.

[Sam Dan]

Tara Gold has filed a Q8' Amazing Francis R. Biscan, Jr., David Barefoot, and Lynda Cardno-Keeton resigned as officers and/or directors of the Company.

Important information for TRGD shareholders who will be receiving FRMA shares as a dividend on Feb 5,2015.

American shareholders will have to pay a capital gains tax on the dividend. The first tranche
did not attract a capital gains tax until the TARM shares were sold because at that time TRGD owned more than 80 % of the shares of TARM. Now TRGD owns approx. 40% of FRMA so US
Federal Capital gains tax must be paid.
Canadian shareholders did have to pay capital gains on the first tranche of the TARM dividend even though they had not sold the TARM shares.
This time there is an exemption available to forgo the tax until the FRMA shares are sold. I have provided management of FRMA with the attached information to obtain the exemption. I would urge all Canadians who will be receiving the dividend of FRMA shares to write or call management to request they apply for the exemption . There is a time limit on making an appeal- I believe it is 6 months but not sure.

Below is my information to FMRA management after first tranche

I have been successful in contacting Canadian Revenue Agency [CRA] re Canadian shareholders of TRGD/TARM and the tax liability of the TARM dividend to TRGD Canadian shareholders.
The first tranche received by Canadian shareholders of TRGD of the TARM shares attracted a T5 status. ie this transaction resulted in a tax liability even though the shares were NOT sold.
If TRGD/FRMA MANAGEMENT SUCCESSFULLY APPLIES FOR AN EXEMPTION FROM THIS “FOREIGN LIABILITY” SUBSEQUENT DIVIDENDS PROMISED BY MANAGEMENT WOULD NOT ATTRACT TAX UNTIL THE FRMA SHARES ARE SOLD !!
I have forwarded this information to management and hope they act quickly to file and achieve exemption. CSA said this is a routine transaction.
Go to http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/I-3.3/page-121.html#h-23 from the Canadian Income Tax Act.
It took some time and patience to obtain this info but CSA was very helpful !!
Would suggest you contact your accountant to follow this matter.
Remember when you sell the FRMA shares it will attract a tax. Not sure if part Dividend Income plus Capital Gain.

[stock_peeker]

Well, the shares of FRMA are finally about to flow to TRGD stockholders. Of course on the news, FRMA dropped significantly, based on expectation that TRGD shareholders will probably hope to unload their FRMA soon after it arrives. OK, so now I'm thinking FRMA may be undervalued? What are their "SmartPac" technology and two mining projects really worth?

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/tara-gold-announces-distribution-firma-213720335.html

Excerpt:
HENDERSON, NV--(Marketwired - Jan 27, 2015) - Firma Holdings Corp. (OTCQB: FRMA) announces that Tara Gold Resources Corp. is distributing 0.38843 shares of Firma for each outstanding share of Tara Gold. Any fractional shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole share. The Record Date is January 28, 2015, and the Payment Date is February 5, 2015.

Upon the completion of this distribution, Tara Gold will no longer hold any shares of Firma Holdings.

Firma Holdings was incorporated on May 12, 2006 as Tara Minerals Corp., a subsidiary of Tara Gold Resources. Tara Gold has held Tara Minerals shares since its inception. On June 3, 2014, the Articles of Incorporation were amended to change the name to Firma Holdings Corp.

About Firma Holdings Corp. (http://www.FirmaHoldings.com)
Firma recently acquired intellectual property for the preservation and protection of fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers during extended periods of shipping and storage. The patented technology, known as "SmartPac", is a bulk produce packaging system available for world-wide generic industry applications. In addition to the SmartPac technology, Firma also holds US and Mexico mining projects.

[Sam Dan]

From TRGD 10Q filed on 11/14/2014

"On May 25, 2011, Tara Gold commenced distributing its shares of Firma Holdings to its shareholders by distributing one share of Firma Holdings for every 20 outstanding shares of Tara Gold. Tara Gold plans to make additional distributions until all Firma Holdings shares held by Tara Gold have been distributed to Tara Gold’s shareholders.

After Tara Gold has distributed all of its Firma Holdings shares, Tara Gold will not have any interest in the business segments of Firma Holdings, AMM, Adit or ACM.

Both Tara Gold and Firma Holdings may continue their efforts to develop mining properties that are thought to contain commercial quantities of gold, silver and other minerals. Additionally, once the distribution has been completed, the consolidated parent and subsidiary relationship between Tara Gold and Firma Holdings will change."

[mudpuppy]

a relisting of trgd would be the same as a dividend in terms of making the value liquid again. I would think a relisting might be slightly more valuable to shareholders since that would include any remaining value in trgd beyond of it's frma stock

[Dugger]

I would just like to know when they will be issuing the remaining dividend shares!!! When was the last time they addressed that subject?

[Sam Dan]

If we had to guess would suspect this filing one move towards TRGD being relisted for trading
Hope we are right.

[mudpuppy]

8k just out, changing bylaws and now annual meeting? wtf

Section 2. Annual Meeting :

The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation for the election of directors to succeed those whose terms expire, and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting, shall be held each year on a date to be determined by the Board of Directors.

[Sam Dan]

10Q for3rd Quarter no filed.
Have to study it but not much exciting on first viewing

[Sam Dan]

We urge all shareholders to read carefully the 10Q filed by Firma Holding as it gives a great discussion of potential and possible problems that must be overcome.
Of special interest is the role that Tara Gold plays in the structure of the company.

Tara Minerals Closes Packaging Technology Acquisition
06/19/2014
HENDERSON, NV -- (Marketwired) -- 06/19/14 -- Tara Minerals Corp. (OTCQB: TARM) (BERLIN: 6T3) is pleased to announce that it has closed the acquisition of intellectual property for the preservation and protection of fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers during extended periods of shipping and storage. The mining assets and the newly acquired packaging assets will be held under separate subsidiaries.

The acquisition is comprised of patents, trademarks and other intellectual property in the United States, Europe, Mexico, Canada, South Africa, Japan, and Chile regarding systems and methods for packaging of bulk quantities of fresh produce and flowers incorporating modified atmosphere packaging. The acquisition also includes pending applications throughout the world regarding the active treatment of modified atmosphere packaging.

The commercially demonstrated SmartPac system replaces industry-standard shipping cartons with a sealed see-through container system that preserves produce in virtually the same condition it was in when newly picked, for up to one month during shipment or storage. The packaging system reduces spoilage, extends market reach to far-away customers, and opens up cheaper (ship/rail vs. air) transportation options. The SmartPac system also improves food safety through an efficient mechanism for the distribution of anti-microbial agents, which deter mold, disease and infestation while in transit or in storage.

The solution caters to the quality needs and wants of the end user, opens up new distribution channels, improves the logistics service to customers, and enables lower system-wide costs. The SmartPac solution will be made available for the packing, storage and shipment of bulk quantities of produce to growers, packers and end-users."

[Sam Dan]

Remember TRGD shareholders owns almost 50% of TARM shares. Hopefully some day we will receive the shares

TARM has filed an 8K revealing the terms with FreshTec to acquire the rights to SmartPac technology in the following territories:United States, Mexico and Canada,European Union and All other countries

The acquisition is comprised of patents, trademarks and other intellectual property in the United States, Europe, Mexico, Canada, South Africa, Japan, and Chile regarding systems and methods for packaging of bulk quantities of fresh produce and flowers incorporating modified atmosphere packaging. The acquisition also includes pending applications throughout the world regarding the active treatment of modified atmosphere packaging.

The patented solution, the SmartPac? system, has been demonstrated commercially and provides for immediate opportunities to license towards its worldwide adaptation and for use with Tara branded fresh produce. The solution caters to the quality needs and wants of the end user, opens up new distribution channels, improves the logistics service to customers and enables lower system-wide costs. The SmartPac? solution will be made available for the packing, storage and shipment of bulk quantities of produce to growers, packers and end-users. Examples of generic industry applications include avocado, tomato, iceless broccoli, d'anjou pears, cherries, stone fruits and flowers.

Deterioration and vulnerability to pathogens (food safety) are serious and growing problems for the fresh bulk produce industry. The SmartPac? system is referred to as "disruptive innovation" in that it solves these problems for bulk produce by replacing the industry-standard shipping cartons with a sealed container system that preserves produce in virtually the same condition it was in when newly picked, for up to one month during shipment or storage. This means produce can be picked when ripe, flavorful and at peak weight, and enjoyed by the consumer in the same condition. The packaging system reduces spoilage considerably, extends market reach and opens up cheaper (ship/rail vs. air) transportation options. The SmartPac? system also has an efficient mechanism for the distribution of anti-microbial agents, which deter mold, disease and infestation while in transit or in storage.

Mr. Francis Biscan Jr., President of Tara Minerals, stated, "We believe this technology can dramatically impact and disrupt the way fresh produce is shipped and stored around the world. For the benefit of all shareholders, we could not ignore this strategic, rapid growth opportunity presented by the advanced technology in the international produce and packaging supply industries. The sourcing of produce from around the world is increasingly assisted by a reduction in trade barriers. The acquired patented bulk packaging system positions Tara with a key competitive advantage in the food industry. We will aggressively build this business and I look forward to sharing our progress. At the same time, we recognize that our mining assets have considerable unrealized value and we will continue to progress these properties towards their potential. The revenue generated from SmartPac? will be used to advance both our mining and packaging assets and results in significant potential added value and risk diversification to Tara."

Tara Minerals has signed a definitive agreement with FreshTec, Inc. for the acquisition of the above mentioned intellectual property. Closing is subject to delivery of appropriate documentation and warranties by FreshTec and contractually limited to no more than 40 days from signing. The Company will pay FreshTec a total of $500,000 upon closing. The Company will also pay royalties to FreshTec related to licensing fees and packaging system unit sales. To complete this transaction and market the technology, the Company has raised $750,000 which will be released to the Company upon closing.
