  • In February, Stuhini acquired the Volcanic Creek Molybdenum target by staking 848.1 hectares in 1 new claim block contiguous to the north of its existing Ruby Creek tenures and approximately 4 km north of its flagship Ruby Creek Molybdenum Deposit.
  • The new claim, situated in the headwaters of Volcanic Creek, is referred to as the "Volcanic Creek Moly" showing in BC Minfiles.
  • The mineralization consisted of coarse rosettes in quartz veins and moly veinlets analogous to those at the Ruby Creek Molybdenum Deposit found in float and outcrop.

SEOUL, South Korea, Sept. 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has recently garnered attention among materials science researchers owing to its ability to form two-dimensional nanosheets like graphene. The nanosheets are created by the stacking of S–Mo–S layers interacting via Van der Waals interactions. Additionally, the unique structural, optical, thermal, and electrochemical properties of MoS2 have opened up multiple research avenues across several fields, including the development of biomolecule sensing and chemical detection platforms, optoelectronics, supercapacitors, and batteries.

Key Points: 
  • Traditionally, carbon nanostructures have been employed as an immobilization platform for DNA.
  • In order to substitute carbon with MoS2 as an effective electrochemical DNA sensor, the electrical conductivity of MoS2 needs to be improved considerably.
  • The duo has developed an electrochemical DNA biosensor using a graphitic nano-onion/molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheet composite, which effectively detects human papillomavirus (HPV)-16 and HPV-18, and can serve as an early diagnosis of cervical cancer.
  • Dr. Kang elaborates: "The DPV current peak was lowered after probe DNA chemisorption and target DNA hybridization.

KANAZAWA, Japan, June 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Researchers at Kanazawa University report in ACS Nano how ultrathin layers of tin disulfide can be used to accelerate the chemical reduction of carbon dioxide - a finding that is highly relevant for our quest towards a carbon-neutral society.

Key Points:

  • Recycling carbon dioxide (CO2) released by industrial processes is a must in humanity's urgent quest for a sustainable, carbon-neutral society.
  • The researchers also carried out electrochemical measurements for bulk SnS2 powder, which was found to have less catalytic CO2 reduction activity.
  • But now, Yasufumi Takahashi from Kanazawa University and colleagues have found that the 2D metal dichalcogenide SnS2 displays no HER catalytic activity; instead, it is a catalyst for the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) to formic acid - an extremely relevant property in the context of strategies for reducing the global CO2 footprint.
