G4G Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:GXG) ("G4G") today announced that its wholly
owned subsidiary Alternative Fuels Corporation ("AFC") and The University of
Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa ("Wits") concluded an exclusive
representation agreement to commercialize the fuel and chemical production
process developed by the Centre of Materials and Process Synthesis (COMPS)
located at Wits. The COMPS propriety technology utilizes a second generation of
the well established Fischer-Tropsch process that Sasol has successfully used
for the past fifty years.


COMPS has successfully commissioned two pilot plants in China and Australia.
Both plants are now producing at design capacity and planning is underway to
scale up for commercial production facilities.


The agreement grants AFC exclusive rights to market and deploy the Wits
conversion technology in the Americas and follows AFC's announcement of 13th May
2009 on the waste supply agreement with Turtle Island Recycling Corporation. The
proposed plant, to be built in the Sarnia area of Ontario, will convert waste
destined for landfill into a variety of value added chemicals, fuels and waxes.


"There is no question that the South Africans, through Sasol, are the world
leaders in the field of Fischer-Tropsch. The developments that the COMPS
engineers have applied to the second generation Fischer-Tropsch technology will
revolutionize the application of this technology in plants throughout the
Americas. Our management and Board are delighted with the confidence that Wits
has displayed in partnering with G4G Resources in this exclusive agreement for
the Americas," stated Basil Botha, President & CEO.


The COMPS FT technology offers the following advantages over first generation
technology:


- 20-30% lower capital cost per barrel than 1st generation FT

- Lower operating costs

- High efficiency levels

- A robust and simple process that is reliable and easy to operate

- Quick to design & build

- Scalable

- Modular

- A once-through process that is energy and capital efficient

- Produces both syncrude & electricity

- The world's greenest fuels and chemicals when using biomass derived feedstocks

Mr. Botha continued, "With the growing global competition for petroleum as China
and India continue their economic expansion, there is a dire need for countries
to become energy independent. For example, the United States imports over fifty
percent of their petroleum requirements and will be compelled to convert their
abundant coal reserves into usable fuel through processes similar to that which
has been developed by COMPS. The South Africans took the initiative to become
self sufficient after the world oil embargo of the 70's, with Sasol building
coal to liquids plants with a capacity of 160,000 barrels per day. The COMPS
plants together with other forms of alternative fuel and energy plants will
continue to play a vital role in the energy independence that countries seek."
