NEW YORK and MONTREAL, Dec. 9,
2011 /PRNewswire/ -- ICBS Ltd., (OTCPK: ICBT), updates
shareholders.
As you may know, ICBS is concentrating on three partnership
entities that we feel have the greatest chance of success. They are
Canwealth Minerals, BioSpec Global Solutions and Identascan.
In each instance, ICBS has funded the purchase of equipment and
services to enable these companies to move forward in their goals.
We have paid for all of their expenses in pursuit of these goals
including legal fees, labor, operating expenses and sundry
expenses.
You have been able to track their progress via the press
releases and information posted on their respective websites. In
each case, we have seen these companies move from the planning
stage to implementation with our professional and monetary
assistance.
The money we have raised in the market place has enable us to do
this. We have sold stock to brokers and accredited investors by
means provided to small cap companies. This has meant the issuance
of additional stock over the past year. We have taken this route as
opposed to selling our shareholders interest in the company
themselves to private investors, even though that would be the
traditional way to do things. However, selling equity would have
only lowered our shareholders value in these companies, and we felt
that would not be in the interest of our shareholders.
As you can all see, our stock prices have been repressed, and in
our opinion have not reflected the true value of the ICBS holdings.
We realize that this is the nature of the Pinksheets. To that end
we have been working with our accountants in Canada and our CPA in the U.S. to complete a
financial audit of the last two years. This has not been an easy
task. Since we do not have all of the companies under one banner,
each entity must provide information to the accountants for the
past two years. We are expecting this project to be completed
within the next three to four months. Once completed our U.S. CPA
must submit it for approval to the SEC which could take an
additional 90 days. Once approved ICBS intends to move up to
the OTCBB.
Canwealth Minerals Inc., owned 51% by ICBS.
Canwealth has just completed its first phase of deep core
drilling at Golden Ridge with very impressive results. Canwealth
owns nearly 40,000 acres of mining rights in Northern Quebec, all sites that have been
assayed have proven results in Gold and other precious metals. We
have estimated that the value of Golden Ridge by itself could
exceed $500,000,000
Bayport Corporation of Nevada
and ICBS have just completed a joint venture deal that has seen the
formation of a jointly owned new Goldshore Mining LLC which will
own 6 claims that have rich indication of Gold and Rare Earth
Elements. We have scheduled our first drilling project to commence
on or around July 2012 in
Utah.
Canwealth is already proving to be a substantial return on our
investment. That along with our deal with Bayport could see significant development of
mining operations in 2012.
Canwealth has created an "Assay" page on their website which
will soon contain all the assay reports from the different mining
locations.

Identascan is a program being developed by Dr. Li Liu of McGill university that has the ability to
recognize individuals by their body movement. The program will
enable security forces to scan crowds and identify an individual
through their body movement. This is a unique program in its self.
The ramification to such a program would lend law enforcement
agencies a unique tool against crime and terrorism.
