BACTECH PROFILE
BacTech owns patented bacterial oxidation technology for the treatment
of refractory ores and concentrates to enhance the recovery of gold,
silver and base metals. The Company's focus is the acquisition of
equity positions in projects amenable to bioleaching. In June 2008, the
Company signed an agreement to acquire Yamana Gold Inc.'s 33% interest
in two refractory gold deposits in Papua New Guinea. In September 2008,
BacTech signed an MOU to investigate the use of bioleaching to
reprocess arsenic-laden tailings in Cobalt, Ontario. This is the
Company's first foray into the cleantech industry. BacTech is
continuing to evaluate additional remediation projects.
