GTSO Pursues Rare Earth Transport Agreement with Russian Railways

Green Technology Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: GTSO) announced today that the company has approached freight services provider Russian Railways regarding the transport of rare earth ore from Mongolia to the international seaport of Vladivostok, Russia.

GTSO and Rare Earth Exporters of Mongolia announced the formation of a joint venture earlier this month to procure rare-earth mining claims and operations in Mongolia. The joint venture plans to convey Mongolian mining products overland to railway for transport to Vladivostok in order to avoid shipping through China. Destination ports for these mining products are set to include the U.S., Japan and South Korea.

Russian Railways is a major freight provider on the Eurasian continent, offering international freight services for ore and many other types of commodities. The company provides rail service traversing Mongolia from south to north, including passage through the nation's capital, Ulan Bator, where the joint venture's new transport office is located.

?Russian Railways is the ideal company to help us transport rare earths from mines in Mongolia to port in Russia,? said GTSO President and CEO John Shearer. ?They have the necessary expertise and infrastructure to transport 20 tons of ore per day by rail, which is our goal. We hope to reach an agreement with them soon.?

China's stranglehold over global production of rare earth has spurred supply concerns in the U.S., Japan and South Korea. Having established a near-monopoly over rare-earth production worldwide over the past 20 years, China is drastically reducing its exports in an attempt to force foreign technology firms to move their manufacturing to China. As a result, the U.S. and its allies are totally reliant on the communist nation for the production of their most powerful weapons and technology.

China does not hold all of the world's rare earth deposits, however. The vast majority of China's rare earths are mined in the country's Inner Mongolia region, which lies along the southern border of the nation of Mongolia. Many experts believe that Mongolia, a former Soviet state, contains rare earth deposits that rival those of China. By developing a new source of rare earths outside of China, GTSO aims to counter the rising security threat posed by China's iron grip on materials critical to the U.S.'s energy and defense industries.

GTSO commercializes clean and renewable mining technology and products in a sector that affects Molycorp, Inc. (NYSE: MCP), General Dynamics (NYSE: GD), Rare Element Resources Ltd. (AMEX: REE) and General Electric (NYSE:GE).
