PMDP Technologies Can be Modified to Assist in Cleaning Oil Spills Such as the Current Spill in the Gulf of Mexico

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., May 3, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Plateau Mineral Development, Inc. (Pink Sheets:PMDP - News) announced today that its partner company, Environmental Solutions (EnSol), has a technology that can be modified to assist in cleaning up oil spills such as the current one in the Gulf of Mexico. While the EnSol technology would require some modifications to meet the exact needs, those changes would be minor.

EnSol's technology can be used to reclaim the oil and tar, whilst restoring the beaches. It would take in a volume of contaminated sand, dissociate the components, extracting the oil and tar, thereby allowing clean sand to be deposited back onto the beach.

Robert Matthews of Plateau Mineral Development, Inc., states, "The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico and its negative environmental impact is of significant importance at present. It is our goal to eventually use the green, environmentally-friendly EnSol technologies in an effort to help with the clean-up process of this any future oil spills."
