LOS ANGELES, April 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Terra Nostra Resources Corporation (OTC:TNRO) (BULLETIN BOARD: TNRO) today announced details of two sales contracts for Shandong Quanxin Stainless Steel Co., Ltd. ("SQSS"), its stainless steel joint venture operation in China. The first contract is with Qing Dao Baemyung Metal Co. Ltd., a well respected company operating in the Shandong province, which has contracted SQSS to produce 600 Metric Tons ("MT") of 304 grade stainless steel billets per month, for an annualized value of approximately US$30 million based on current market prices. Qing Dao Baemyung further processes the billets into various shaped bars, and exports the majority of its production to Korea. SQSS has also been contracted by Zhejiang Yuyaohongda Stainless Steel Co.

Zhejiang Yuyaohongda utilizes the SQSS produced strip for the stainless steel pipe industry, exporting its product to Japan and Korea, as well as some domestic sales in China. This contract is worth US$11 million annually at current market prices, with production of 600 MT monthly.
