awesome job, we need as many people as possible to come together. i believe there were two market makers walking this down and shorting mvtg. anyone else have an idea? i was watching level 2 a bunch today because of the abnormal trading and thats what i think happened.
i have it. I have the investor fact sheet. i can send it to you if you give me your email.
As of sept 23rd.
Fully diluted: 35,127,185
Pulic float : 9.1 million
from that i hear over a majority is in safe hands also.
finally got rid of that PERT order at .135 glad to see buying come in.
cheap stock,, just absorb it here.
bids are coming in. not worried at all. let get them out at these prices and then we go up again.
if everyone here can just put bids up, we will get theses suckers out of the way.
this is where every one needs to dig deep in the pockets and stop these sellers/shorters and battle back.
i chat with the guys at mantra on the regular and have been a shareholder for about 2 1/2 years now. a competitor of theres is Calera. non public. there end product sells for $50-70 a ton and is used as a product in cement. Mantra's formic acid is around $1500 a ton and can be used in a massive list of products. A much more versatile product and organic/biodegradable. The only thing really different is Calera has some serious money people behind them. Mantra will get its time seeing they have the right company behind them to do so. it will come, just takes time. Don't you think its funny that the largest cement company around is using Mantra's ERC technology to rid there CO2 and not calera's where there end product is actually used in the cement industry. another great sign for Mantra.
ask away and im sure you will get the proper answer or simply call the office and chat with one of the guys there.
nice to see on the carbon capture journal.
LaFarge trials Mantra CO2 reuse technology
Capture, Oct 25 2010 (Carbon Capture Journal)
- Mantra Venture Group has secured an ERC (Electrochemical Reduction of Carbon Dioxide) demonstration project with Lafarge Canada.
Lafarge North America Inc., together with its subsidiary, Lafarge Canada Inc., is the largest diversified supplier of construction materials in North America.
Over the course of the project, Mantra, Lafarge and its wholly owned subsidiary Systech Corporation, will build and deploy a 100kg ERC pilot plant at one of Lafarge's North American cement plants. The project is expected to further advance Mantra's ERC technology for large-scale applications and demonstrate the effectiveness of Mantra's ERC technology in converting CO2 into valuable green chemicals.
John Russell, VP of Technology at Mantra says the company will gain valuable experience and exposure through its first-ever North American ERC pilot demonstration project and hopes to have the opportunity to deploy commercial-scale units across multiple Lafarge sites upon completion of the project.
The project is scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2011, and further details will be announced as they become available.

Lafarge. read a a little more and you will find out. why would massive companies show interest. think!
maybe if you have been with this company as long as a majority of guys here then you would actually see what is going on. you have nothing but dumb comments here and have said nothing good about the company that all these people have put hard earned money into. That was massive news and a big step forward for the company and we dont need someone here taking anything away from it. this is a small company with a monster potential. ohh did you even know that 3M tried to buy Mantra about 4-5 months ago?. RIGHT..... no idea thats what I thought. So you have two monster fortune 100 companies after a little company called Mantra which has technology that can literally transform CO2 into a valuable chemical. Maybe you should do your DD and get on the bid pal or stop talking.
Mantra has a new website. same address www.mantraenergy.com
we just keep buying and these guys soon enough will be gone.
mantra was shorted 65k yesterday. maybe a nice chunk today was shorted, wont be able to see till tonight, lets short squeeze em for tomorrow and make em buy back at .25,, make these suckers pay for raining on parade.
glad to see things slowed down on the bid-whacking. lots of consolidation today. we break through .20 and i say next is .25,, keep getting the word out about Mantra and LaFarge. Everyone is doing a wonderful job. Real things dont go straight up like everyone wants. this is good if you ask me. After all we were at around .12 a few months ago and now doing large volume at the resistance point where everyone knew this would happen. just not very impressed with the bid-whacking
I am not worried at all. lots of people are very short sighted and want to be rich yesterday. get these traders out of here.
why would the company be selling shares? that is massive news. the float is very low here and we break through thiese prices and then it should rock
awesome volume to start off the day. this is just the start of everything
pre buys coming in. today is a gd day
here we go, going to open in the .20s,, bids are stacked! awesome
i love it. the future is friendly. sleep with smiles.
haha funny.. real news. big news
do your DD on MVTG - Mantra and LaFarge with a technology that can reduce CO2 by a nice chunk and create a new market at the same time. this has to be worth some bucks.
not to mention 3M was working with MVTG before this was annouced and Korean Power utility.
pure awesome. sometimes little companies hit the jackpot. this is great news.
Lafarge operates in 78 different countries. they have the resources and infrastructure to really do anything they want. when erc is commercialized and touted as a serious CO2 reducer, look bigboard and huge dollars.
ground floor here bigtime
Lafarge with market cap and revenues is around a 40 Billion dollar company. i know its hard to think that there is actually real companies out there on ihub.
MVTG is fully reporting. small companies hit jackpots once in a while and this is a beaut.
That is real news. soo be it. dont miss out.
DO you DD. LAFARGE IS HUGE. unbelievable. This could be massive. get the word out there.

About ERC
The ERC process, "the "Electrochemical Reduction of Carbon Dioxide," combines captured carbon dioxide with water to produce high value materials, such as formic acid and formate salts, which are conventionally obtained from the thermochemical processing of Fossil Fuels. However, ERC has an advantage over the established thermochemical methods for converting carbon dioxide to green chemicals, new chemicals beyond formic acid, building products and liquid fuels.
While thermochemical reactions must be driven at relatively high temperatures that are normally obtained by burning fossil fuels, ERC operates at near ambient conditions and is driven by electric energy that can be taken from an electric power grid supplied by hydro, wind, solar or nuclear energy (forms of clean or renewable energy).
About Mantra:
Mantra, through its group of sustainable energy, carbon reduction and consumer product subsidiaries, is active in the green technology marketplace with an innovative, multi-faceted approach focused on profitability through sustainability. By aggressively seeking out new technologies and innovating solutions for a cleaner earth for everyone, Mantra intends to provide a highly profitable and environmentally responsible investment for its shareholders.

ecomike i have seen the latest MVTG investor fact sheet from mantra. it says there public float is 9.1 million and shares outstanding is 35,127,185. Management has told me over and over that a majority of that float is tightly held. GOOD news and this will rocket. A developement company with only 35 mill outstanding after 3 years of being public is amazing. Fully Reporting. You dont see that very often these days.
FUNDAMENTALS are rocking also.
http://barchart.com/opinions/stocks/MVTG
check that out.
i really do thing that this will move to higher prices very easily and stick. its only going to take a couple deep pockets to notice this.
i think that to gain more attention we post on other companies boards that you are familiar with and tell them the wonderful story of mantra. thats my thought of getting some new eyes to MVTG.
nice slap on the offer. we are breaking .20 this week
PUT MVTG on your RADAR
wait for real news and this people get excited. to go up on such low volume shows that this will move with substantial news. this is far undervalued and will move with some attention.
not sure how this whole message board stuff really works. i just post on mantra because i know it will be a winner and i own a fair share of stock, i have owned shares for over 2 years now and continue to add when i can. we just need to get the word out there as much as possible. low float, a technology with an unlimited potential and in the perfect time in history to have this technology. do you have any ideas to snag new blood with real money instead of these pumpers.
these low floaters can rocket on impressive news and new eyes. this is a real deal and just needs more retail guys.
good to see some new blood/chatter in here.
MANTRA NEWS- NICE UPDATE
Mantra Venture Group Corporate Update
Oct. 14, 2010 (Marketwire) --
SEATTLE, WA -- (Marketwire) -- 10/14/10 -- Mantra Venture Group Ltd. ('Mantra') (OTCBB: MVTG) (FRANKFURT: 5MV) is pleased to announce that it has overcome dire market conditions and economic adversity in marking its most successful year since its inception.
Similar to most development stage companies, Mantra relies heavily on the support of investment capital to fund operations. Over the past 12-24 months, global financial markets experienced relentless pressure -- severely limiting the availability of funds and causing many technology development companies to collapse. Nevertheless, thanks to Mantra's corporate perseverance and unmatched product offering, the company was able to secure sufficient funds to weather the storm, and the company now finds itself in a favorable cash position. Furthermore, Mantra was able to make considerable progress over the course of the period from both a corporate as well as a technical perspective.
In June, Mantra successfully completed the year-long development program for the Electroreduction of Carbon Dioxide (ERC) technology. Over the course of the project, the company was able to upgrade ERC's main end-product (formate) to a concentration suitable for commercial upgrade, and it also achieved regeneration of the cathode while improving the long-term stability of the catalyst. Moreover, Mantra was able to improve ERC's current efficiency to 90% while vastly reducing the technology's power requirement.
In light of the project's completion, Mantra's John Russell commented: "Mantra is now closer than ever to completing its profitable solution to CO2. The next step is a field demonstration project -- a stage that I have been looking forward to for quite some time."
Two months later, Mantra signed an agreement with KOSPO (Korea Southern Power Corporation) and KC Cottrell to deploy Mantra's CCR (carbon capture and recycling) technology in a pilot project at KOSPO's coal fired power plant in Hadong, Korea. The project is slated to further advance Mantra's technology for large-scale applications and will operate alongside KC Cottrell's CO2 capture facility at KOSPO's largest coal fired power plant. The collaborative project is expected to begin shortly.
Concomitantly, Mantra made significant improvements to its Mixed Reactant Fuel Cell Technology (MRFC). The technology was proven at a lab scale and tests are showing continual improvement in the fuel cell's pivotal "figures of merit." There is still a significant amount of development remaining before MRFC can be commercialized, but the technology is looking more and more promising, and the company is very pleased with its progress to date.
While marking significant achievements from a technical standpoint, the company was by no means resting on its laurels from a corporate development perspective. In August, Mantra re-launched Climate ESCO Ltd. (CE), a wholly owned subsidiary, with a vision of identifying new and innovative ways to reduce the carbon footprint of public and private organizations. Immediately upon re-launch, CE established a working relationship with Fawoo Technology Co., Ltd to provide leading-edge LED (light emitting diode) lighting technologies to the North American marketplace. CE is now a revenue-generating subsidiary with multiple demonstration projects currently underway.
Due to expanding operations, Mantra was forced to move its corporate headquarters to a larger facility in September. Later that month, the company hosted an open-house to launch its new Corporate Headquarters in Surrey B.C. and more than 100 investors and community leaders were on-site to celebrate. The new location features expanded conference facilities and a showcase facility for the full line of Climate ESCO's LED lighting products. Located within easy access of highways, ports (Vancouver, Fraser Docks and Roberts Bank), and a major border crossing to the US, the building will also act as the company's main distribution center.
In speaking of Mantra's recent move, Larry Kristof, Chairman and founder of Mantra, noted: "Sustainable development and environmental stewardship are heavily encouraged within the community of Surrey -- representing a perfect fit for Mantra and its subsidiaries. We have already begun to collaborate on multiple community initiatives, and we look forward to growing with the city."
Mr. Kristof has since been asked to join Surrey's Clean Tech Advisory Board alongside many notable corporate and political leaders, and in February 2011 he will be joining Mayor Dianne Watts on a business mission to India. Over the course of the five day mission, the delegates will meet with industry officials and politicians to discuss matching opportunities in several areas, including: clean energy, manufacturing and education.
"All-in-all, this has been a fantastic year for Mantra," added Kristof. "Not only have we survived the financial turmoil, but we have done so with great success. We have gained momentum in both the lab as well as the boardroom, and I believe our future over the next 12-18 months will be even more rewarding. ERC demonstration projects are set to take the stage over the course of this period, and we are confident that the outcome will be eye-opening amongst industry officials worldwide."
Mantra Executives will be engaging in several business development missions over the next two months to solidify new partnerships in Canada and the US, with notable stops including California and Washington D.C. In addition, the company will be launching a new website later in the fall to provide updated technical information and visuals on Mantra's portfolio of technologies.
Mantra would like to thank its shareholders for sticking with the company through turbulent market conditions, and the company looks forward to rewarding this shared vision and fortitude through the developments that lie ahead.
