BacTech Environmental Corporation ("BacTech" or the "Company"),
(CNSX:BAC)(OTC:BCCEF)(WKN:A1H4TY) today announced that its wholly-owned
subsidiary, BacTech Manitoba Corp. ("BMC"), has signed a Memorandum of
Understanding ("MOU") with Hudbay for the Anderson Lake tailings site located in
Snow Lake, Manitoba. Anderson Lake hosts tailings from ten past-producing mines
in the Snow Lake area. Pursuant to the MOU, BacTech will conduct a drilling
program to obtain samples from the Anderson Lake tailings.


Both Hudbay and BacTech are interested in evaluating the amount of precious
metals contained in the tailings. More specifically, both parties would like to
ascertain the ratio of oxide gold ounces to sulphide ounces (commonly known as
refractory) in the Anderson Tailings. BacTech is interested in the
identification of sulphide ounces as possible feed for the Company's bioleach
plant to be built in Snow Lake. 


BacTech, at its expense, will conduct the drilling program and, if the results
prove to be of merit, BacTech will conduct an internal economic study to
determine if the project is viable.


Hudbay has over 60 years of mining and metal production in the Snow Lake area.
The Snow Lake-Flin Flon "Greenstone Belt" of Manitoba and Saskatchewan is one of
the most prospective areas in the world for volcanogenic massive sulphide
("VMS") polymetallic deposits. It is also the largest paleoproterozoic VMS
district in the world (Symes et al, 1999) and the richest Greenstone Belt in
Canada per square kilometre (Franklin, 1995). BacTech continues to investigate
other opportunities in the Greenstone Belt that have potential to be additional
feeds for the proposed Snow Lake bioleach plant.


BacTech profile

BacTech Environmental Corporation holds the perpetual, exclusive, royalty-free
rights to use the patented BACOX bioleaching technology for the reclamation of
tailings and mining waste materials. In December 2011, BacTech signed a contract
with the Mines Branch of the Manitoba Department of Innovation, Energy and Mines
to remediate an Arsenopyrite Residue Stockpile ("ARS") situated at the Snow Lake
Mine in Snow Lake, Manitoba, to eliminate further leaching of arsenic generated
within the ARS into the surrounding watershed. The Company continues to field
enquiries globally with respect to additional opportunities for remediation.
