"WTWO News" W2 Energy Purchases Agri-Green Biodiesel
http://www.marketwire.com/press-release/W2-Energy-Purchases-Agri-Green-Biodiesel-1265926.htm
TORONTO--(Marketwire - May 25, 2010) - W2 Energy, a clean energy company, (PINKSHEETS: WTWO) is pleased to announce that on May 7, 2010, it signed a Letter of Intent to purchase 60% of Agri-Green Biodiesel, Inc. of Sparwood, British Columbia (www.agri-greenbiodiesel.com) for 3,000,000 restricted shares.
Agri-Green Biodiesel (AGB) consists of three divisions that generated sales of $655,000 in 2009. The different divisions in AGB are a perfect match with the development strategy of W2 Energy: collecting feedstocks, such as waste vegetable oil, converting it into biodiesel and selling it through wholesale and retail outlets.
The current AGB facility has an annual capacity of 1,000,000 gallons per year and W2 will use the NT Plasmatron technology to convert waste from biodiesel production (glycerin) into methanol and electricity. The purchase of Methanol is one of the main costs of creating biodiesel. Using the NT Plasmatron, W2 will be able to reduce biodiesel production expense at the Sparwood plant.
Disposal of waste products like waste antifreeze and waste vegetable oil have been a serious environmental concern for many years. The 2nd generation NT Plasmatron gives W2 Energy the ability to deliver low cost power and increases its fuel generation capabilities.
W2 Energy continues to develop products that present low cost energy solutions for the treatment of waste. The system is closed with no emissions and is a net user of CO2.
Remember that with a W2 Energy waste to energy plant, garbage is a renewable resource.
W2 Energy trades in the United States on the OTC under the symbol "WTWO." For further information, please contact Mike McLaren at (519) 341 3185 or www.w2energy.com.

"GRGR News" Green Energy Resources (GRGR) Gets Contract to Deliver Gulf Oil Soaked Woodchips to 5 Power Stations Throughout the Southeast
Woodchips, a Gulf Oil Spill Solution Update
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/green-energy-resources-grgr-gets-contract-to-deliver-gulf-oil-soaked-woodchips-to-5-power-stations-throughout-the-southeast-2010-05-25?reflink=MW_news_stmp
SAN ANTONIO, May 25, 2010 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- Green Energy Resources (Pink Sheets:GRGR) has received a contract to deliver oil soaked woodchips to 5 separate power stations throughout the Southeast. Additionally, Green Energy Resources is working with one of America's largest national trucking companies to provide logistics point to point both on delivery and pick up of the woodchips. Woodchips are a proven technology that can absorb 5-10 times their own weight and can be utilized at sea, as well as the shore, to help prevent oil from lapping on the beaches.
Green Energy Resources has offered 100,000 tons or more of woodchips with a moisture content of approximately 17% (very buoyant and very absorbent) to be transported to the Gulf. Green Energy Resources also has mesquite woodchips that contain natural traces of chlorine to help purify and cleanse the water as it would a pool, without harm to marine life. Green Energy Resources has barges to distribute the chips, pick them up and process them at a rate of 8000 gallons per minute, separating the chips from water. Alternatively, fishermen using nets can gather the woodchips by skimming them.
Woodchips are a sound and affirmative methodology to collect oil. Woodchips are available, all natural, and can be disposed of in a safe, non-hazardous way that makes sense from an environmental as well as cost effective energy solution by generating electric power. Many of the oil dispersants currently being employed are as damaging or more so than the oil spill itself.

"AMEL News" AmeriLithium's Corporate Update on Projects, Management, Financing & Research Coverage
http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/amerilithiums-corporate-update-on-projects-management-financing--research-coverage-94732094.html
LAKE TAHOE, NV, May 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AmeriLithium Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: AMEL) ("AmeriLithium" or "the Company") is pleased to provide a corporate update on the Company's five major international Lithium projects (~724,000 acres in total); enlistment of VP Exploration & Chief Geologist and key advisory board members; securing of $10 million in funding and its use toward the completion of the initial stage of exploration on the Company's Nevada-based Paymaster Project; and research coverage on the Company by SISM Research (target price of $5.10) and Cohen Independent Research (target price of $3.63).
"These are very exciting times for us," said Matthew Worrall, Chief Executive Officer of AmeriLithium. "We're seeing our portfolio expand, our leadership team come together, and best of all, we have the financial backing necessary to make the most of those physical and human assets. To top it all off, the Company's praises are being sung by third-party coverage. Of course, we still have a lot of work ahead of us. But it's good to know we have what we need to continue moving toward our goal of becoming one of America's leading Lithium exploration companies."
LITHIUM PROJECTS UPDATE
AmeriLithium has signed agreements on five major properties, representing a total of ~724,000 acres that hold some of the world's richest Lithium resources. Three of the projects are based in Nevada, adjacent to or nearby the only Lithium producing plant in the US. The other two assets are a large project in Alberta, Canada, and a project consisting of three plays in Western Australia.
PAYMASTER PROJECT: a 5,880-acre claim block adjacent to the Clayton Valley playa, where Lithium-rich brines and evaporates have been accumulating for more than 30,000 years, resulting in the highest Lithium content found in any brines tested by the US Geological Survey (USGS) in southwestern US playas and basins.(1) As of May 5, 2010, the first phase of a three-phase exploration program on the project was completed: the field work stages of a geophysical survey by GeoXplor Corp. Results from the survey will be made available within the next 2 to 4 weeks in a report from GeoXplor geophysicist Jim Hasbrouck. AmeriLithium will announce the survey results in due course while making photos of the Nevada site and survey available in the near future at http://www.amerilithium.com.
CLAYTON DEEP PROJECT: a 5,280-acre (8.25 square mile) claim block covering the entire Southwest Gravity Low in Clayton Valley, Nevada. The project's placer claims lie less than 10 miles southwest of the only US-based Lithium producing plant, operated by Chemetall Foote Corporation, a subsidiary of Rockwood Holdings, Inc. The plant has been in production since 1967, producing an estimated 50 million kg (55,000+ tons) of Lithium to date from the region's rich brines.(2)
FULL MONTY PROJECT: a 5,760-acre block (9 square miles) of federal placer mining claims in Nye County, Nevada, 25 miles north of Clayton Valley's prime Lithium-mining region. The asset's location represents excellent logistics for project exploration and development, including an established road system and high voltage power lines that cross the Company's property.
AMERICANA PROPERTY (Alberta, Canada): one of the largest claims of its type in the region, representing ~664,049 acres overlying a potential extension of the Leduc Formation and Beaverhill Lake Group strata/Swan Hills Formation. These two formations were identified by the Alberta Geological Survey (AGS) as containing formation waters containing potentially economic amounts of Lithium.(3) The AGS recommended further analysis of the formation waters for Lithium, stating that the Lithium contents are similar to those of the only US-based Lithium plant in Clayton Valley, Nevada.(4)
BARE ROCKS, HOFFMAN HILLS & NORMANS LAKE PROJECTS (Western Australia): three Australian plays covering 43,000+ acres around and abutting Lake Dumbleyung, where a 2007-2008 survey for Reward Minerals Ltd reported the presence of salt lake brine with a Lithium concentration of 530 mg/liter(5) (by way of comparison, the only US-based Lithium producing plant originally began operation at 400 mg/liter).

AmeriLithium is fortunate to have retained a Vice President of Exploration & Chief Geologist with a proven track record as impressive as Robert Allender's. With a career spanning over 30 years, Robert represents the wealth of expertise in the mineral exploration, development and mining industries needed to successfully guide the Company's exploration programs. Robert previously worked on a vast range of mineral exploration projects worldwide with key companies such as UNOCAL and Chevron Minerals, while also being responsible for the discovery of several highly significant sites in both the US and Africa.
The Company's Advisory Board, meanwhile, represents a cross-section of seasoned specialists from several industry sectors key to the world's expanding Lithium market.
ROBERT CRAIG, P.E. – CHIEF MINING ADVISOR: Robert's career of 35+ years has brought him ever growing engineering and executive experience in the mining, energy, and Lithium industries. Over the years, Robert has proven his ability to understand and manage the attendant challenges of large scale projects, whether working as an engineer on the TransAlaska Pipeline Project, Prudhoe Bay oil fields, and for the State of Alaska, or serving as Environmental Engineer for the $200 million Fort Greely Garrison projects, or acting as Environmental Manager in charge of permitting and compliance on the 10,000 ton/day cyanide heap leach project at Firstgold Corp's Relief Canyon Mine in Nevada.
MATHEW HARPE – CHIEF PHARMACEUTICAL ADVISOR: Mathew's extensive career within the pharmaceutical industry brings to AmeriLithium a wealth of experience in a market that uses Lithium in a range of products for the treatment of neurological problems including bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Stretching back over a decade, Mathew has worked for multinational blue-chip institutions and some of the world's largest medical companies such as Astra Zeneca and Lundbeck Pharmaceuticals.
JONATHAN COOK – CHIEF IT ADVISOR: Jonathan joins the AmeriLithium team as an advisor following a long career as a consultant identifying and implementing tailored solutions to complex technical and energy-related environments in the IT sector, including Aerospace and Hydroelectric businesses. Jonathan's IT and energy-related expertise is essential to the Company successfully operating in the Lithium market where, as the US Geological Survey points out, the use of Lithium in batteries has expanded significantly in recent years due to rechargeable Lithium batteries being used increasingly in electrical tools and, more important, in the rapidly expanding portable electronics market.(6)
ANDREW GRANT – CHIEF TECHNOLOGICAL ADVISOR: Andrew represents extreme competence in business building, management and leadership in a fast-paced market environment while working with blue-chip organizations such as IBM and Unilever. Drawing on his extensive training – BA (hons) Business Studies; MSc in IT and Management; Multi-Certified SAP Consultant – Andrew has established a track record of over nine years through major cost reduction strategies and effective profitability growth.
$10-MILLION FINANCING UPDATE
On March 26, 2010, AmeriLithium entered into a $10 million financing agreement with a European institutional investor focused on mining ventures. As of April 29, 2010, the Company had received its second draw down on the finance agreement, effectively enabling it to accelerate its ongoing US exploration program on its Paymaster Project in Nevada. As of May 5, 2010, the first phase of the three-phase exploration program was completed: the field work stages of a geophysical survey by GeoXplor Corp. Results from the survey will be made available within the next 2 to 4 weeks in a report from GeoXplor geophysicist Jim Hasbrouck. AmeriLithium will announce the survey results in due course while making photos of the Nevada site and survey available in the near future at http://www.amerilithium.com.
RESEARCH COVERAGE UPDATE
On May 20, 2010 SISM Research, a private investment research firm, released research coverage on AmeriLithium. Ernest C. Schlotter, a senior analyst with SISM Research, and a four star analyst according to StarMine, authored the coverage report, which gave a stock target valuation of $5.10 and the basis/rationale for that valuation. The reports target price was considerably higher than the Cohen report's $3.63 target, released April 21, 2010 due to the Company's recent acquisition of its Nevada-based Clayton Deep and Full Monty assets, and the completion of the first phase of exploration on its Paymaster Project in Nevada.
On April 21, 2010 coverage research report prepared by Cohen Independent Research (CIR) gave AmeriLithium a best price target of $7.80 while concluding that the Company was "a unique opportunity to capitalize on the emerging Lithium market." The report included an official Cohen Target Price of $3.63 per share, which is significantly higher (175.3%) than the $1.32 share price at the time the report was authored. "We expect robust revenue growth on the back of favorable industry outlook," the CIR report stated, "coupled with AMELs' excellent property locations and management's significant industry experience." The CIR report also pointed out that, "(the) Company has also acquired necessary capital to sustain exploration activities in the coming year which highlights the management's capabilities to take the Company forward," and that AmeriLithium's "business model is scalable and will create revenues from various industry verticals distributing the risk."

"BMGP News" Biomagnetics Presents First Handheld Optical Biosensor for Malaria, TB and HIV/AIDS Diagnostics in New Video Series
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/biomagnetics-presents-first-handheld-optical-biosensor-for-malaria-tb-and-hivaids-diagnostics-in-new-video-series-2010-05-24?reflink=MW_news_stmp
SAN FRANCISCO, May 24, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Biomagnetics Diagnostics Corp., (PINK SHEETS:BMGP) a developer of revolutionary diagnostic systems and technology for HIV, hepatitis, tuberculosis and malaria detection, today announced the availability of a new series of video taped interviews of CEO, Clayton Hardman where he presents the world's first handheld Integrated Optical Biosensor (IOBS), which was recently licensed under an agreement with Los Alamos National Security LLC.
In the first video, which can be viewed at http://www.vimeo.com/11932556, Mr. Hardman introduces the Company and the IOBS unit that was recently obtained from Los Alamos. In the second video, which can be viewed at http://www.vimeo.com/11934544, he provides a demonstration of how the device can be used in the field by relatively untrained personnel to test patients for malaria, tuberculosis and for many other diseases. Additionally, Mr. Hardman demonstrates the unit's additional operations and explains the significant clinical advantages and meaningful cost saving benefits inherent to this revolutionary diagnostics technology.
"Having recently received the unit from the scientific staff at Los Alamos we wanted to explain how the unit operates and how we plan to market the technology to the marketplace. We decided that a series of videotaped interviews would be the method best to communicate this message," commented Clayton Hardman, Chief Executive Officer. "We believe this technology holds the promise to rewrite the methodologies for pathogen detection. With IOBS, relatively untrained personnel can be utilized to quickly, easily and most importantly, very inexpensively, diagnose a variety of medical conditions, in the field, without the use of additional and expensive laboratory equipment."
While Biomagnetics Diagnostics will be targeting tuberculosis and cholera detection in its first release, which is due for release later this year, and malaria diagnosis, which is slated for release toward the end of the year, the Company will not be limiting its product releases to only these diseases. With the flexibility of the underlying technology Biomagnetics will be able to adapt the IOBS http://www.vimeo.com/11934544 to detect almost any pathogen in human or animal blood or other body fluids.
The Company recently announced it had finalized a "Patent License Agreement with Los Alamos National Security." Under the agreement, Biomagnetics will have access to the Triggered Optical Biosensor and Integrated Optical Biosensor System (IOBS) technology developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Biomagnetics Diagnostics believes the availability of this portable, handheld technology will substantially lower the cost of, and substantially raise the availability of, malaria, tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS and cholera diagnosis and detection in many areas throughout the world, potentially saving hundreds of thousands of lives each year.
"IRLD News" Ireland Inc. Announces First Gold and Silver Poured From Pilot Plant Operations at Columbus Project
Testing and Optimization of Pilot Plant Operations Continues on a 24/7 Basis
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/ireland-inc-announces-first-gold-and-silver-poured-from-pilot-plant-operations-at-columbus-project-2010-05-24?reflink=MW_news_stmp
HENDERSON, Nev., May 24, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Ireland Inc. /quotes/comstock/11k!irld (IRLD 0.70, 0.00, 0.00%) , an exploration and development company focused on the discovery and extraction of gold and silver from mineral deposits in the Southwestern United States, today announced that it has poured the first gold and silver from the pilot plant operations at its Columbus Project in Esmeralda County, Nevada.
Pilot Plant Test Results
Pilot plant leach circuit installation was completed in the first quarter this year. Its first two test runs of the pilot plant were designed to prove that the thiosulphate leach Carbon-in-Pulp circuit was capable of extracting gold and silver from larger tonnages of the Columbus Project clays. The goal of subsequent test runs of the pilot plant will be to optimize and maximize the amount of precious metals extracted from the clays.
The results of the first two test runs are as follows:
-- First test run: 8.07 grams of gold (0.259 troy oz "toz") and 28.41 grams of silver (0.913 toz), extracted as metal in hand, from ~25.6 tons of material.
-- Second test run: 11.69 grams of gold (0.376 toz) and 39.45 grams of silver (1.268 toz), extracted as metal in hand, from ~33. 0 tons of material.
The gold and silver metal was extracted following ashing of the carbon. These first two tests were completed during the commissioning of the thiosulphate leach Carbon-in-Pulp circuit of the pilot plant. Tests are now underway to determine the loading rates and loading capacity of the carbon in order to optimize the recovery rates of precious metals from the leach slurry.
"It is very gratifying to see the first gold and silver produced from our onsite pilot plant operations," stated Douglas D.G. Birnie, Chief Executive Officer of Ireland Inc. "This is another very significant milestone in the evolution of our technical program as we take the steps necessary to complete a feasibility study of the Columbus Project."

Ireland is now operating its pilot plant circuit 24 hours a day, 7 days a week (except for maintenance down-time or circuit adjustments). This will now allow for:
-- Processing of larger tonnages of Columbus material,
-- Optimizing the leach/carbon circuit for maximum gold and silver recovery, and
-- Providing regular status updates on the Columbus Project's progress.
"The primary objective of our first tests was to prove that the pilot plant facility could extract gold and silver from continuous runs of large tonnages of mineralized clays at the Columbus Project," Mr. Birnie said. "This goal has been achieved. Our next series of tests will focus on maximizing the amount of gold and silver extracted. These tests will involve optimizing both the leach and the carbon loading parameters so that precious metal recoveries can be calculated."

"HOMS News" Homeland Security Capital Corporation’s Subsidiary Awarded Demolition Project at Y-12
http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/homeland-security-capital-corporationrsquos-subsidiary-awarded-demolition-project-at-y-12,1309175.shtml
ARLINGTON, Va. - (Business Wire) Homeland Security Capital Corporation (OTCBB:HOMS), an international provider of specialized technology-based radiological, nuclear, environmental, disaster relief and security solutions to government and commercial customers, announced today that its environmental remediation subsidiary, Safety and Ecology Corporation (SEC) was awarded a task order to perform hazardous environmental services at the Y-12 National Security Complex in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
Under this task order, SEC will perform hazardous and universal material removal, abatement, demolition, site restoration and waste disposition of material and debris from the former engineering office known as Building 9766. The task order is scheduled to be completed in October, 2010.
The task order was awarded under SEC’s existing Infrastructure Reduction contracting vehicle, from B&W Y-12, LLC (B&W), for the Department of Energy. B&W Y-12 operates the Y-12 National Security Complex for the National Nuclear Security Administration.
“SEC is proud to participate in B&W’s infrastructure reduction efforts,” said Christopher Leichtweis, President of HOMS and CEO of SEC. “We have been fortunate to have completed the reduction of over 200 structures at Y-12. This has prepared us for the complexity of this task, involving beryllium contaminated systems and structures.”
“HOMS is at the forefront of cleaning up many different hazardous waste sites and we appreciate the importance and sensitivity of this project. We are committed to getting the job done safely and efficiently,” said C. Thomas McMillen, Chairman and CEO of HOMS.
Constructed in 1944, the building served as the primary machine shop at Y-12 for many years. Machining of uranium and thorium parts was performed in the 9766 machine shop and in later years beryllium machining took place in the building, leaving a legacy of beryllium contamination. SEC brings extensive experience working with beryllium recently at Y-12, ORNL and other locations.
"HYBE News" Hybrid Energy to Increase Production Efficiency and Reduce Carbon Emissions With Breakthrough Gas-to-Oil Technology
http://www.marketwire.com/press-release/Hybrid-Energy-Increase-Production-Efficiency-Reduce-Carbon-Emissions-With-Breakthrough-1263840.htm
RENO, NV--(Marketwire - May 20, 2010) - Hybrid Energy Holdings, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: HYBE) announced today it has begun development and property integration plans using innovative technology that will convert flare gas, a byproduct of oilfield production, so named because it is commonly disposed of by continuous burning during drilling operations, into a synthetic and commercially viable form of crude oil.
This technology not only will increase the Company's production efficiencies and profitability, but once installed, it represents a technology that can be licensed to gas and oil producers globally, thereby increasing the Company's revenue and shareholder value.
Natural gas, a valuable natural resource, is emitted in great quantities as a consequence of oil extraction only to be thrown away like garbage. When underground oil is subjected to high pressure, gas dissolved in the liquid escapes through a separate pipeline valve that reaches the surface. Yet, the practice of combusting this "associated gas" as quickly as possible (i.e. gas flaring) has become standard for decades in oilfields too remote from potential markets or transport infrastructure to take advantage of the fuel's value. Official estimates place the global amount of gas squandered in this way annually at 1/4 of the natural gas consumption in the US.
Though technology does exist for converting this gas into liquid crude oil, it is currently too costly and cumbersome to be efficient in a wide range of gas and oil production facilities. The development of viable gas-to-oil technology would not only provide revenue that would offset the costly trial-and-error stage of oil drilling, it would solve offshore drillers' problem of what to do with excess gas.
Since 2002, gas flaring has come under worldwide scrutiny because of its significant contribution to global warming. The World Bank's Global Gas Flaring Reduction Partnership (GGFR) estimated in 2009 that 1.5% of the world's carbon emissions come exclusively from gas flaring. Any technology that reduces carbon emissions by that magnitude is a benefit for the entire planet. Oil from surplus gas could supplement profits for unconventional oil projects such as shale oil and oil shale, of which the world will only be seeing more of in the future.
The Company is actively involved in various stages of acquiring numerous energy production properties and increasing production on its current holdings. Additionally, the Company is analyzing various technologies that will improve the production efficiencies of its gas and oil production, while at the same time reduce its carbon footprint.
Most recently the Company announced its planned acquisition of proven, untapped reserves of Natural Gas divided between two wells. The estimated value of this acquisition is approximately $30,000,000.
The Company recently announced that its production levels had increased 864% year over year; and expects further increases in production levels and increases in revenue and shareholder value.
The Company's portfolio consists of multiple energy production properties consistently delivering profitably and strong recurring cash-flows. The company's current holdings include 35 Billion Cubic Feet of reserves and produces from an estimated $30,000,000 in active reserves and an additional estimated $145,000,000 in available reserves.
The company has acquisitions currently under consideration and when completed are expected to bring the company's portfolio value above $200,000,000 in proven energy reserves.

"EQLB News" Round Table Discussion With EQ Labs Chief Executive Officer Maurice Owens
http://www.globenewswire.com/newsroom/news.html?d=192363
LAS VEGAS, May 20, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EQ Labs, Inc. (Pink Sheets:EQLB) announced today that in a private discussion late last night, EQ Labs Chief Executive Officer answered some of the most frequently asked questions that the company has received from investors within the past 90 days. Because of the presence of the company's energy drink on the shelves of some well known companies, the company has received many inquiries from interested investors. These are the answers to the most frequently asked questions.
Is it true that your products are now on the shelves of some of the world's largest companies?
The answer is true but we have been asked specifically by these companies to not explicitly name any companies in our press releases. It seems that some of our shareholders have taken pictures of the products on the shelves of these stores so that any shareholder can do their own due diligence and see that the product is right next to more well known products. However and for the benefit of all shareholders, we have honored our partners' request. We understand that it is frustrating to shareholders but we are working for the benefit of the company.
Is the product selling well?
We believe the product is selling very well. Of course, we always want to see the product selling better than it is but we are very pleased with the current market acceptance of the product.
Have you received any re-orders from your distributors?
The answer is yes and we are beginning to see acceleration. Our distributors are doing a great job and we believe we will have interest from other large clients of our distributors over the near future.
Many shareholders are concerned with dilution. Can you comment on this?
Dilution is a misunderstood term on Wall Street. Most IPO's are dilutive. We are growing rapidly and therefore, it would be prudent for our company to raise capital when we can at the best available terms. No one in this company is more concerned with dilution than me because I am the largest single shareholder today. I will never do anything that I believe is not in the best interests of all shareholders' equity positions.
Are you planning on introducing additional products?
Yes, over the very near term. We are also exploring co-branding deals but beyond that, I can't comment.
How does a company the size of EQ Labs compete with large beverage companies and larger energy drink companies?
EQ Labs is an innovator, and often imitated. With creative marketing techniques along with a product that has no equal, EQ finds no boundaries when it comes to acquiring customer's loyalty from even the largest of competitors. EQ is everything and more. Our unique product provides an inexpensive, delicious, portable and most importantly healthy upgrade from the leading brands on the market today.
That leads to one final question. Are you planning to use celebrities to market your product through endorsement deals?
We are currently in direct negotiations with some of the most recognizable male and female celebrity/athlete types in the world the world. Beyond that, I can't comment. Let me just add one thing. Many people say that Tiger and Jordan helped build Nike. It is on that scale.
"NTCXF News" Natcore Technology Closes Acquisition of Vanguard Solar
http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/natcore-technology-closes-acquisition-of-vanguard-solar,1308992.shtml
RED BANK, N.J., May 20 -- Natcore Technology Inc. (TSX-V: NXT; OTC Pink Sheets: NTCXF) has received approval of the TSX Venture Exchange for the acquisition of Vanguard Solar Inc., thereby closing the acquisition.
As a result of this acquisition, Vanguard's former shareholders, including two leading venture capital firms, join the family of Natcore shareholders.
With the closing of this acquisition, Natcore plans to aggressively advance the cutting-edge solar technologies being developed by Vanguard Solar, in particular the development of a flexible, thin-film photovoltaic material capable of silicon solar cell-like efficiency performance at potentially one-tenth the manufacturing cost and one-twentieth the capital investment.
"We are very excited about the technology developed by Vanguard," says Chuck Provini, Natcore's president and CEO. "With its possible suitability for use in now-dormant photographic film coating facilities, it holds the potential for rapid adoption following the remaining larger-scale proof-of-concept development. We will pursue this potential through both in-house efforts and possible joint ventures with industry."
Brien Lundin, Natcore's chairman, adds that "Through this acquisition, in combination with the many still-untapped applications of our Liquid Phase Deposition process and our acquisition of NewCyte Technology, Natcore is building a very valuable portfolio of intellectual property. While we will remain focused on our core business plan encompassing the development of anti-reflective film growth equipment and tandem solar cells, we will also explore the development of non-core applications."
The Vanguard Solar technology involves a proprietary chemical bath process similar to Natcore's liquid phase deposition (LPD) technology, although Vanguard had grown II-VI compound semiconductor thin films on carbon nanotubes at room temperature and ambient pressure, while Natcore has thus far concentrated on growing silicon dioxide films on silicon substrates.
The first-generation products from Vanguard's method could produce 15%-16% efficiencies at module costs of 60 cents to 70 cents per watt. Second-generation technology could achieve 20% efficiencies at even lower costs per watt. The investment for production facilities is projected as low as $10 million to $15 million per 100-megawatt to 150-megawatt production capability, as compared with current costs of as much as $250 million for standard solar-cell production facilities. Vanguard's production equipment would be designed for insertion into existing roll-to-roll film-coating lines of the sort that have been displaced by the emergence of digital photography. All production materials are widely available and dramatically cheaper than silicon and other thin-film systems. If successfully developed, the process would enable a very cost-efficient production capability in large-scale facilities.
Vanguard has achieved proof-of-concept in small-area devices and is ready to move to a validation stage, during which the company will demonstrate larger-area working devices at the targeted efficiencies expressed above. Vanguard has two pending patents covering its solar cell development, as well as a broad range of photodetectors and optical sensors. Among the applications for the latter are manufacturing process monitoring and controls, homeland security surveillance and biomedical sensors for diagnostics and testing.
As consideration for the purchase of Vanguard, Natcore is issuing Vanguard shareholders a total of 375,236 common shares. Natcore is also issuing 120,075 common shares to a firm performing services for Vanguard to pay legal fees incurred by Vanguard, and 20,000 common shares to a firm providing services to Natcore in relation to the Vanguard acquisition. The securities of Natcore issued pursuant to these transactions are subject to a hold period expiring on September 20, 2010.

Cray Increases Its Presence in Some of the World's Most Prestigious Weather and Climate Research Centers
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/cray-awarded-47-million-contract-to-build-a-next-generation-supercomputer-for-advanced-climate-modeling-2010-05-20?reflink=MW_news_stmp
SEATTLE, WA, May 20, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Global supercomputer leader Cray Inc. /quotes/comstock/15*!cray/quotes/nls/cray (CRAY 4.94, -0.02, -0.40%) today announced it has received a contract from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to provide the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) with a next-generation Cray supercomputer. As part of an interagency partnership between DOE and the U.S. Department of Commerce, which oversees NOAA, the next-generation Cray supercomputer will be used for advanced climate modeling and research, and will be called the Climate Modeling and Research System (CMRS).
The CMRS will provide a dedicated high performance computing resource for NOAA and its research partners, and will allow scientists to leverage a significant increase in computing capacity to address some of the most pressing global climate change questions. Once completed, the Cray supercomputer will be the world's most powerful high performance computing system dedicated to climate research.
The purchase is being funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. This investment in science and modeling capabilities will strengthen NOAA's ability to provide decision makers, whether individuals, businesses, or governments, with the climate information they need to make smarter more informed decisions for their families, businesses and communities.
"NOAA is recognized as a world leader in understanding and predicting the earth's environment through advanced modeling capabilities, climate research and real-time weather products," said Joe Klimavicz, CIO and director of high performance computing and communications at the Department of Commerce/NOAA. "High performance computing is absolutely necessary for weather forecasts and climate predictions, and we are excited to have the computational resources of a next-generation Cray supercomputer to further our research."
"The new Cray system will give the climate modeling community the ability to study climate change and its impact on our planet with a dramatic increase in computational capability," said James Hack, who heads climate research at ORNL and directs the National Center for Computational Sciences. "The deployment of this system will allow NOAA scientists and their collaborators to study systems of greater complexity and at higher resolution, and in the process will hopefully improve the fidelity of global climate modeling simulations."
Consisting of products and services, the contract is valued at $47 million. The multi-year, multi-phase agreement includes the delivery of a Cray XT6 supercomputer and a delivery of a next-generation Cray supercomputer code-named "Baker." Phase one of the contract, the delivery of the Cray XT6 system, is expected to go into production in the second half of 2010. Phase two of the contract, which includes the delivery of the additional "Baker" system and upgrading the Cray XT6 system to a "Baker" supercomputer, is expected to be complete in 2011. Additional upgrades are planned for 2012.
"The importance of climate research is undeniable, and this announcement reaffirms Cray's role in providing scientists with the leadership computing capability required to explore the impact of climate change and its effect on all of our lives," said Peter Ungaro, president and CEO of Cray. "NOAA and DOE are at the forefront of climate research and we are honored that they chose a Cray supercomputer to fulfill this important need for a high performance climate modeling system."
Some of the world's most highly recognized weather and climate research centers continue to select Cray for their supercomputing needs. Last month, Cray signed a contract with the Foundation for Space Technology, Applications and Science in Brazil to provide the National Institute for Space Research with a new Cray XT6 supercomputer for weather forecasts and climate studies. The National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado recently purchased a Cray XT5m midrange supercomputer, the Finnish Meteorological Institute is home to a Cray XT5m, and last year Cray won a contract to provide the Korea Meteorological Administration with a next-generation "Baker" supercomputer.
With a planned release early in the third quarter of 2010, the "Baker" supercomputer will feature a new interconnect chipset known as "Gemini" and enhanced system software that improves the performance, productivity and reliability of the system. Cray's planned "Baker" supercomputer builds on the Cray XT system architecture found in the world's fastest supercomputer and improves it in every key dimension.
This contract is one of the two large contracts previously disclosed by the Company as "in negotiations."
