NCM and ScanMag will establish a separate technical development company for the testing of aspects of
the magensium processing proof of concept through a jointly owned Norwegian subsidiary based in
Glomfjord, Norway. ScanMag AS is to finance an initial contribution for the technical development company,
after which each party pays its proportional share. NCM will contibute its 50-per-cent share of budgeted phase
work after it has received the initial $2 million (U.S.) payment from ScanMag.

through the joint venture.
-
Alpha Omega, a private company owned and controlled by James Sever, PEng, is a party to the joint
venture agreement and an integral part of the planned technical development.
Lothar Maruhn, chief executive officer of ScanMag, states: "We are very pleased to have such a highly experienced technical team
from NCM to assist us in the development of our facility through to commercialization and production within a short
period of time. We are looking forward to our next steps, as the technical experience that NCM provides us is a
major requirment to secure our project financing."
Ed Lee, CEO of NCM, says: "It's been long in the making and we are very pleased to have achieved this joint venture
with a similar company to ours. The companies are looking to bulid magnesium metal producing operations so this
agreement is a monumental milestone for both companies. The technical development done initially for ScanMag
should lead the way to lowering the process risk for our Tami Mosi project in Nevada."
We seek Safe Harbor.
