Terra Energy & Resource Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: TEGR), a
natural resource exploration technology and services company, will
receive 570,000 shares of Shamika 2 Gold, Inc., a publicly held
company whose shares are traded on OTCBB, and 0.45% of the
preferred net return from production and sale of gold and rubies
derived from the Cambodia mining project which Terra helped
discover. In exchange for its satellite-based STeP® analysis
exploration services rendered for the project in 2010, Terra
received not only fees but also a royalty and a project
co-investment right from MIG International Mining Group, the
project sponsor. Later MIG agreed for Terra to convert its 5%
project co-investment right into a 1% interest in MIG, with no cash
payment by Terra. In March 2011, Shamika acquired 85% of the equity
in MIG, seeking to benefit from MIG's mining concession in
Cambodia, which as noted previously, was a direct result of Terra's
analysis of the license area. Shamika's acquisition is a welcome
development for Terra, increasing the liquidity of Terra's interest
in the project and validating the production potential of same.
"In July-August of 2010, Terra helped MIG create a substantial
value in gold and ruby geological resources. Terra completed its
STeP® analysis of the area of interest in January 2010. In only six
months, MIG transformed a frontier exploration territory into a
marketable mining property," said Dmitry Vilbaum, CEO of Terra
Energy & Resource Technologies. "In its recent press release
(http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Shamika2Gold-Inc-Acquires-pz-903296838.html?x=0&.v=1),
Shamika's CEO calls the MIG acquisition an historic event for his
company. All of us at Terra are excited that we played a key role
in such a positive corporate development for both MIG and
Shamika."
Dr. Alexandre Agaian, President of Terra Energy & Resource
Technologies, stated: "It shows the strength of Terra's exploration
methods that it can secure partial compensation in the form of
royalties. Subject to MIG obtaining the appropriate mining licenses
and achieving a two month production, Terra's shares of Shamika
will be released from the escrow to Terra. We recently met with
Shamika's CEO Mr. Robert Vivian, who informed us that his current
priority is to establish mining and production from the license
area. Terra welcomes Mr. Vivian's plans to ramp up production
quickly and hopes to start receiving its share of the revenue
stream in a short order. In summary, the total potential
compensation package in connection with this license area for Terra
is now a 1.5% overriding royalty, 570,000 shares of Shamika 2 Gold,
Inc., and 0.45% of the preferred net return from production."
