New Directors Appointed Magnesium Alloy Corporation ("MAC" or "the Company") (MGAC.U - CDN) is pleased to report that Salzgitter Anlagenbau GmbH (SAB) of Germany has agreed to elevate their current independent engineering study of the Kouilou magnesium project to full feasibility status. SAB, a leading international general and engineering firm, is the primary contractor for the study together with Kavernen Bau-und Betriebs (KBB), a world leader in all phases of solution mining including; modeling of reserves, brine extraction and transport. The Russian National Aluminum and Magnesium Institute (VAMI) and Ukrainian Titanium Institute (UTI) are providing the proven magnesium extraction technology under the direction of SAB. Concurrent with the SAB study, SNC-Lavalin Inc. (SNC) has prepared a pre-feasibility study for the establishment of a hydroelectric facility at MAC's Kouilou hydroelectric site on the nearby Kouilou River. This facility would supply electric requirements to MAC's proposed magnesium facility as well as for regional consumption. The results of the SAB feasibility study and the SNC pre-feasibility will be disseminated before the end of May. The Kouilou project is located near Pointe Noire, the industrial port city of the Republic of Congo. The Company proposes solution mining of extensive magnesium salt deposits located within its license area and the subsequent extraction of magnesium metal, utilizing proven technologies and the abundant energy resources of the area. MAC believes that the combination of low-cost solution mining, advanced extraction technology and low-cost energy could result in the Kouilou project being a low-cost magnesium producer.
