FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ECO VENTURES GROUP SIGNS MINERAL EXPLOITATION AGREEMENT FOR PRECIOUS METALS EXTRACTION
Groveland, FL – October 19, 2011 Eco Ventures Group, Inc. (OTCBB: EVGI) announced today that it has signed a Mineral Exploitation Agreement with Broken Hills, LLC to recover the precious metals from certain mine claims in Nevada. The ore containing the precious metals will be concentrated on location using EVGI’s proprietary technology and then shipped to EVGI’s precious metal extraction facility in Groveland, Florida. Based on land surveys, exploratory drilling and independent assays, the ore from the claims contain significant quantities of Gold, Platinum and Palladium.
The mine claims span approximately 800 acres in the northwestern region of Nevada with access to approximately 25,000,000 tons of ore.
Under the terms of the Agreement, Broken Hills will operate the mine site and provide EVGI with concentrated ore for processing in its 5,000 ton per year extraction facility in Florida. The parties will split the profits of precious metals extracted from the ore 60/40 (EVGI/Broken Hills). In the second phase of the Agreement, Eco Ventures Group will operate the mine site and process the ore for a 90% share up to 20,000 tons, and 95% share of the precious metals recovered after 20,000 tons is processed.
“Our Agreement with Broken Hills guarantees us an ore supply that will keep our 5,000 ton per year plant operating at full capacity for years to come. This ore gives us the ability and incentive to greatly expand our processing capabilities without being reliant on future ore contracts. We could increase our current processing capabilities by 10 and still have enough ore to keep the facility busy for many, many years. The preliminary results from the field are very encouraging with high levels of target precious metals,” said Randall Lanham, CEO of Eco Ventures Group.
