VANCOUVER, BC – July 15, 2013 – IBC Advanced Alloys Corp. (TSX-V: IB; OTCQX: IAALF) (“IBC” or the “Company”) provides an updated on recent trading in the Company’s shares on the TSX Venture Exchange. In its July 2, 2013 news release, the Company reported that it was “aware that there has been a recent increase in trading activity of the Company’s shares and a decline in its stock price” but was “not aware of any adverse material changes in the operations of, or prospects for, the Company that would explain this activity.”
The Company has subsequently learned that a former shareholder, Firebird Global Master Fund Ltd. recently sold its investment in IBC. In a news release dated July 11, 2013, Firebird Global Master Fund II Ltd. reported that Firebird Fund Firebird Global Master Fund Ltd., held 4,405,814 common shares representing 11.36% of IBC’s outstanding shares in January 2013.
