(\"VM\" or the \"Company\") (TSX VENTURE:VM) is pleased to announce that it has signed a non-binding letter of intent (\"LOI\") with Summit Nanotech Corporation (\"SNC\"), to develop proprietary processing technology for the production of high-purity lithium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, potassium carbonate, calcium carbonate and sodium carbonate from mineral brine waters. The technology is also envisioned to employ innovative carbon capture technology allowing VM to potentially capture CO2 from the atmosphere to be used in the processing.\n\n \n \nOne of VM's goals is to create efficient, environmentally friendly mining projects with reduced carbon foot prints. In addition, VM will be developing this technology for the production of High Purity Barium (HPB) products from its Frances Creek barite project.\n\n \n \nSNC is a private Calgary-based company utilizing the latest breakthroughs in nanotechnology.\n\n \n \nSNC & VM will begin to take steps towards the production of consistent high purity carbonate compounds in the coming months. VM will be focused on creating lithium, magnesium and barium compounds that the US government considers to be minerals of critical and strategic importance to US national and economic security.\n\n \n \n\"Nanotechnology is not a specific technology, it's an innovative, understanding of how materials are created. Nanotechnology is not limited to a specific industry or application. The ability to synthesize and manipulate materials at the molecular level is now possible due to breakthroughs in nanotechnology research. Summit Nanotech Corp has established partnerships and together we are eager to develop effective solutions based on research in the nanotech field. Our current focus is taking upstream brine and upgrading to commercial quality mineral feedstocks, capturing and utilizing CO2 in the process and recycling energy. Our main motivation is to manufacture modular commercial solutions. Summit Nanotech develops solutions for a new age of transitioning to clean energy that have profound impacts on our planet. We look forward to working with V...
