President of PPR, Eric Leboeuf stated, "We are very excited at PaRadox to be working with a progressive company like Mountain Capital. The company is aggressively entering the lithium exploration and mining arena, which we at PaRadox feel will be one of the leading mining sectors in the future. With the new green initiatives that the United States and the rest of the world are undertaking, we feel that the commonplace use of the electric car will soon be a reality. The Lithium-ion battery is at the forefront of this new technology, and if, as expected, it emerges as the overwhelming technology of choice, lithium could be in extremely short supply in the coming years. Mountain Capital has positioned itself, as a result of its truly forward looking philosophy, to take advantage of future opportunity in the lithium markets, well ahead of the competition."
President of Mountain Capital, Blair Naughty stated, "We are pleased to have secured the services of PaRadox Public Relations. The average investor or institution, it seems, is not well versed regarding the applications of the element. It is our feeling that Paradox Public Relations, through their many channels, can aid in marketing the potential of both lithium and our Company by providing what may be termed 'educational assistance'. We look forward to working with a young and dynamic company like PaRadox Public relations."
