aWeare anticipating very encouraging testing results from these cores, and if the amounts of tungsten and other valuable minerals in the black sands samples are found to be economically recoverable, we plan to move forward immediately with the development of new mining operations in Ghana,a said GTSO CEO Paul Watson.

Western Africa is a major area of focus in GTSOas efforts to establish potentially lucrative tungsten mines. The companyas deal with DVA allows it to explore promising opportunities in an explosive region, Western Africa, possessed of vast mineral resources. The joint venture is also pursuing tungsten resources near Alaska's Yukon River.

The metal's unique properties make it essential to the manufacture of everything from drill bits to cruise missiles, and there are no known substitutes. For years, China has controlled global tungsten supplies, producing about 80 percent of worldwide consumption and pricing competitors out of the market.

Now, China is cutting back dramatically on exports, reserving its tungsten supplies for its own use. The result is that tungsten has seen an eight-fold increase in value since 2000.

GTSO is working to service a fast-growing global appetite for rare and precious metals to compete in an exciting sector that includes FMC Corp. (NYSE:FMC),North American Tungsten Corp. Ltd. (TSXV:NTC.V), Newmont Mining Corp.(NYSE:NEM), and Rio Tinto (NYSE:RIO).
