(604) 689-7842 www.fortressminerals.com NEWS RELEASE FORTRESS INTERCEPTS 474.7 METRES OF CONTINUOUS COPPER AND GOLD MINERALIZATION AT THE MALMYZH PROJECT IN EASTERN RUSSIA March 17, 2010 (FST-TSXV) Fortress Minerals Corp. (“Fortress”) is pleased to announce initial assay results from the phase 1 drilling program at its 74-square kilometre Malmyzh Project in eastern Russia. The phase 1 drill program, which is planned to include 5,200 metres of drilling in 26 holes, will test ten large geophysical and geochemical targets. The first four diamond drill holes totalling 1,311 metres, reported herein, were drilled to test the Flats target, where an earlier drill hole by Freeport-McMoRan Exploration Corporation ("FMEC") intersected 195.6 metres grading 0.39% copper and 0.29 gram/tonne (g/t) gold (see Press Release dated September 29, 2009). All four drill holes encountered significant mineralization from the collar to the bottom of the hole. Hole AMM-002 intersected 474.7 metres grading 0.26% copper and 0.29 g/t gold. The first five holes into the Flats target are wide spaced and have tested an area about 400 metres by 200 metres (please see figure 3). Mineralization is open in all directions and at depth. Results are shown in the table below.

New distributional data as well as brief analyses of old records for fourteen species described earlier are provided from both Palaearctic and Nearctic material. S.

Lampyris noctiluca (Linnaeus, 1767) (Coleoptera, Lampyridae) covers an extensive transpalaearctic range (Medvedev & Ryvkin 1992; Geisthardt & Sato 2007; Kazantsev 2010, 2011) with unclear boundaries of distribution on the periphery. The eastern sector of the range has been studied the least. Until recently, from the Amur region (within the borders of the Amurskaya oblast' and Khabarovskii krai of Russia) three points of collection of L. noctiluca were known. However, this which does not give a detailed idea of the range of the species in this region (Kazantsev 2010) (Fig. 1). Our research provided material from the basins of the Amur and Uda rivers, which significantly clarifies the northern boundary of distribution in the eastern sector of the range of Lampyris noctiluca. Lampyris noctiluca is also firstly recorded for the Heilongjiang province in China and the Evreiskaya avtonomnaya oblast' in Russia.

This study aimed to develop environmental flow recommendations for the Zeya and Bureya rivers based on past flow rate records. The recommended floodplain inundation by environmental flow releases from the Zeya reservoir are currently impracticable due to technical reasons. Therefore, the importance of preserving the free-flowing tributaries of the Zeya River increases. Future technical improvements for implementing environmental flow releases at the Zeya dam would improve dam management regulation during large floods. The recommendations developed for environmental flow releases from reservoirs on the Bureya River should help to preserve the important Ramsar wetlands which provide habitats for endangered bird species while avoiding flooding of settlements.

    How to use the Atlas The Atlas has two map sections The Main Section shows the location of Russia’s intact forest landscapes. The Thematic Section shows their tree species composition in two different ways. The legend is placed at the beginning of each set of maps. If you are looking for an area near a town or village Go to the Index on page 153 and find the alphabetical list of settlements by English name. The Cyrillic name is also given along with the map page number and coordinates (latitude and longitude) where it can be found. Capitals of regions and districts (raiony) are listed along with many other settlements, but only in the vicinity of intact forest landscapes. The reader should not expect to see a city like Moscow listed. Villages that are insufficiently known or very small are not listed and appear on the map only as nameless dots. If you are looking for an administrative region Go to the Index on page 185 and find the list of administrative regions. The numbers refer to the map on the inside back cover. Having found the region on this map, the reader will know which index map to use to search further. If you are looking for the big picture Go to the overview map on page 35. This map shows all of Russia’s Intact Forest Landscapes, along with the borders and Roman numerals of the five index maps. If you are looking for a certain part of Russia Find the appropriate index map. These show the borders of the detailed maps for different parts of the country.

    Specifics of Cultural Space of the Khabarovsk Territory

    Journal of Siberian Federal University. Humanities & Social Sciences 2021 14(6): 918–926 DOI: 10.17516/1997–1370–0770 УДК 008: 304.2+379.81 Specifics of Cultural Space of the Khabarovsk Territory Lidiya V. Sheremet’eva* Khabarovsk State Institute of Culture Khabarovsk, Russian Federation Received 26.03.2021, received in revised form 16.04.2021, accepted 21.05.2021 Abstract. The paper focuses on various activities of cultural institutions operating in the territory of the region. The methodological basis of the research is L. V. Nikiforova’s cultural expertise based on systematisation of the categories of «places» of cultural space. The paper is a preparatory stage of cultural expertise, which aims to thoroughly analyse the network of cultural institutions in general and to identify potential art- spaces for further detailed study. It provides a detailed analysis of the network of cultural institutions in Khabarovsk and an overview of the categories of cultural institutions in the administrative centers of all districts in the Khabarovsk territory. The source base of the study is the data obtained from the analysis of websites of cultural institutions, social networks, as well as the respondents’ personal surveys. Cultural institutions representing different forms of cultural activity have been roughly divided into ten groups. The result of the research is a perspective to identify institutions the activities of which can be evaluated in terms of belonging to the art-space format.
