GTSO Rare Earth JV Engages Mongolian Mining Consultant to Analyze New Mineral Reports

Native Mongolian Tasked with Providing Mining & Exploration Support for Rare Earths Projects.

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Mongolian agent company for Green Technology Solutions’ (OTCBB:GTSO) joint venture with Rare Earth Exporters of Mongolia (REE) engaged a mining and exploration consultant this week to assist in the companies’ ongoing efforts to expand rare earth production and exporting from the developing nation.

Exploration and mining consultant Batpurev Tsend-Ayush was hired by the joint venture to analyze the mineral content of rare earth mining properties optioned by GTSO and REE. A native Mongolian, Batpurev lives and works in the capital city of Ulan Bator, where the joint venture’s transportation office is located.

GTSO President and CEO John Shearer said Tuesday that the joint venture plans to put the independent contractor to work immediately.

“On Monday, the joint venture signed a letter of intent to develop a new licensed rare earth mine in Mongolia’s Tuv province, so we need Batpurev Tsend-Ayush to begin analyzing mineral reports from the new site as soon as possible,” Shearer said. “We’re also in negotiations already regarding other rare earth mining properties in Mongolia, as well, so we will be relying heavily on his expertise.”

GTSO and REE formed their joint venture to acquire rare earth mining claims and operations in Mongolia in February. Manufacturing demand for the critical materials has risen sharply in the last 20 years, and diminishing export quotas from China, the world’s largest rare earth producer, have led to rising prices and supply concerns. By developing new rare earth production in Mongolia, China’s northern neighbor, the joint venture plans to help secure essential rare earth supplies for manufacturers in the U.S., Japan, South Korea and elsewhere.

“LED light bulbs, emerging solar panels, and wind-turbine generators are just a few of the green technologies that depend upon rare earth elements,” Shearer said. “If the U.S. and its allies are unable to procure rare earths for manufacturing, we will be unable to match the green tech innovations developed in China.

“By helping us to uncover Mongolia’s vast deposits of these elements, Batpurev Tsend-Ayush will help GTSO and REE work to eliminate that possibility,” he said.
