About Global Atomic
Global Atomic Corporation (www.globalatomiccorp.com) is a
publicly listed company that provides a unique combination of
high-grade uranium mine development and cash-flowing zinc
concentrate production.
The Company's Uranium Division includes four deposits with the
flagship project being the large, highgrade Dasa Project,
discovered in 2010 by Global Atomic geologists through grassroots
field exploration. With the issuance of the Dasa Mining Permit and
an Environmental Compliance Certificate by the Republic of
Niger, the Dasa Project is fully
permitted for commercial production. Final design in support of the
Company's Feasibility Study is on-going.
Global Atomics' Base Metals Division holds a 49% interest in the
Befesa Silvermet Turkey, S.L. ("BST") Joint Venture, which operates
a new, state of the art zinc production plant, located in
Iskenderun, Turkey. The plant
recovers zinc from Electric Arc Furnace Dust ("EAFD") to produce a
high-grade zinc oxide concentrate which is sold to zinc smelters
around the world. The Company's joint venture partner, Befesa Zinc
S.A.U. ("Befesa") listed on the Frankfurt exchange under 'BFSA', holds a 51%
interest in and is the operator of the BST Joint Venture. Befesa is
a market leader in EAFD recycling, with approximately 50% of the
European EAFD market and facilities located throughout Europe and Asia.
