PMDP Plateau Mineral Development Inc (CE)

Plateau Mineral Development, Inc. (Pink Sheets:PMDP) announced today that the environmental permitting process has been defined for the Tire Converter.

The Converter will recover carbon black, oil, gas and petroleum solvents from tires. The market for carbon black includes the manufacturing of other products, making it an even more important commodity than the company had originally thought. Carbon black sells for approximately $0.46 per pound.

A prototype unit was put to the test, showing that the converter yields more than 90% of usable product after it converts the materials put into it. The fully operational converter is the size of a truck bed. However, the goal is to fabricate and test a portable unit that can be taken to remote sites for conversion and environmental cleanup jobs.

Plateau Mineral Development, Inc. notes that the cost is well within budget and consultants are ready to begin work as the fabrication progresses. This will prepare EnSol to begin testing and production operations immediately after fabrication is completed.

About Plateau Mineral Development, Inc.: Plateau Mineral Development has been in existence for over five years.
