Bin Wang, CEO of China Sun Group, said, "Our record performance in the first fiscal quarter indicates we continue to drive sales momentum by servicing manufacturers with the highest quality components for lithium ion battery circuitry. While we continue to gain domestic market share in China, we are nearing closer to our goal of expanding into international markets including East Asia, Southeast Asia, Europe and the United States."
First Quarter of 2008 Accomplishments -- Entered into an African Mining Project Contract of Cooperation with Shengbao Group and South African Shengbao Mining Enterprises (collectively "Shengbao") to purchase the prospecting and mining rights of a 35 sq. km cobalt ore mine located in the Congo area in Africa. According to the agreement, DLX will provide the necessary funding, equipment and engineering staff for the mining and will produce no less than twenty (20) tons of ore per day. With regard to any cobalt ore mined, DLX will own 80% and Shengbao the remaining 20%. -- The Embassy of the Congo Government visited China Sun Group to discuss DLX's mining and production facility in Africa. The Embassy indicated their strong support of DLX's business presence in the Congo. -- Entered into a two-year sales and distribution agreement with Korea's Project Development & Consultation Co., Ltd. (PD&C). According to the agreement, PD&C will act as the exclusive sales agent for DLX's cobaltosic oxide and lithium cobalt oxide products in Korea. PD&C expects to generate USD $8 Million or more in product sales per year. -- Continued to serve six battery producers in China - Hunan Shanshan Advanced Material; CITIC Guoan Mengguli Corporation; Hunan Reshine New Material Co., Ltd.; Changzhou PowerGenie Materials Co., Ltd.; Xiamen Tungsten Co., Ltd.; and Beijing Easpring Material Technology Co., Ltd., and added new customers which include: Zhejiang Tianhong Energy Technology Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Wanma Battery Co., Ltd., Guangzhou Huaneng Battery Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Sunristar Electronics Co., Ltd. -- Actively marketed to international customers, including Tanaka, HLST, Sanyo, Sony, Panasonic, Nihonkagakusangyo, Maxell, LG, Samsung, SK, Hanhua and Light & Future, all of who have shown an interest in the DLX product line -- Through DLX's 14-person R&D team, developed proprietary nanometer technologies as follows: 1. Nanometer Simple Metal Substance: The sizes of these substances vary between 10-100nm. They are mainly applied in the martial, chem- industrial, pharmaceutical, and electronic industries and are used as an efficient catalyst, antiseptic, combustion-supporting agent and electrode material. 2. Nanometer Compound Metal Substance. The sizes of these substances vary between 10-70nm and are mainly applied in the airplane and auto manufacturing industries. These substances are used for sterilization and are both energy-saving and extend the durability of rubber. 3. Nanometer Metal Alloy: These are used in the plastic and lubricant oil industries and have high tensile strength, abrasion resistance, good sturdiness, and good oil and chemical-resistance. -- Along with our strategic partnership with Northeastern University, located in China, we are currently conducting trials of new ternary materials, which are combinations of source anode materials, as alternatives to using cobalt exclusively in lithium ion component production.
