BAC BacTech Environmental Corporation

BacTech Environmental Corporation ("BacTech" or the "Company")
(CNSX:BAC)(WKN:A1H4TY) today announced that it has completed the bioleach phase
of testing of the Snow Lake concentrates. The test work has been ongoing for the
past five months.


BacTech has requested that its third party contractor, Inspectorate Explorations
& Mining Services Ltd. ("Inspectorate') of Vancouver, now subject the oxidized
material to treatment with cyanide to determine the ultimate recovery of gold
from the samples with final recovery results to be announced in approximately
2-3 weeks time. The final oxidation percentage of the contained sulphides will
also be announced. The sulphides are the base cause of the acid rock drainage
that has been seeping from the stockpile.


In January 2012, BacTech was in Snow Lake to conduct a public consultation with
the citizens of the community. Ross Orr, President and CEO provided an overview
of the proposed project followed by a technical presentation by Dr. Paul Miller.
Also in attendance were Mary Ann Mihychuk, Director of BacTech, Dave Salari, COO
of BacTech and a representative of Newalta Corporation. A healthy and positive
question and answer session followed the formal presentation.


Following the meeting, an alternate site for the proposed Snow Lake plant was
identified that will lead to a significant reduction in the costs associated
with material handling for delivery of material to the plant for processing. The
acquisition of the proposed property is underway.


The proposed bioleach plant in Snow Lake will be able to take advantage of some
of the lowest power prices in North America. Power is one of the leading costs
for bioleaching and fortunately, Manitoba's hydropower provides very low rates
and is from a green source.


Work continues with respect to Micon and the Economic Study. The study is
expected to be completed in April.
