Ekwan-X
Announces the Company's Go Forward Initiatives for 2005
TORONTO,
Jan 6, 2005 (PRIMEZONE via COMTEX) -- Ekwan-X, Inc. (Pink Sheets:EKWX)
an innovator in the emerging field of hyperspectral sensing imaging,
announces its go forward initiatives for Q1 2005.
The
Company will commence its focus on two key areas for the first quarter
of 2005: 1) commencing data compilation for a large-scale mineral
exploration program planned for the State of Nevada with an advanced
hyperspectral imager called "EKWAN I," and 2) secondly
by creating partnerships with mining and oil/gas companies that
would bring revenue to the Company.
EKWAN
I fills a unique niche in the market. EKWAN I is designed to fly
at low altitudes on an aircraft with geophysical equipment to provide
clients with a cost effective way of simultaneously collecting hyperspectral
and geophysical data.
"EKWAN
I has already completed the construction and testing stage and we
have flown a several test missions where the results have been excellent,"
said Ed Godin, CEO and President of Ekwan-X. "With EKWAN I
we have introduced a cost effective way for all mining companies
both juniors and established to be able to deliver data in a very
quick manner. We are very excited by the prospects that EKWAN I
will give us and we firmly believe that this technology will bring
a significant amount of interest and attention to Ekwan-X, especially
within the mining and oil & gas sector where our technology
is best suited for."
The
Company will also look to management who has strong ties in the
mining industry to execute its marketing strategy. The Company intends
to not just be a passive partner but to be an active one. "We
are not just selling imaging technology, we are looking to set up
partnerships where we can engage in mining exploration on our own
behalf and obtain royalty interests from clients," stated Ed
Godin.
The
Company has already received several enquiries of interest and will
keep shareholders updated as the situation matures.
Ekwan-X
is a mineral exploration company using hyperspectral imaging technology.
Ekwan-X will concentrate its resources to fully exploit the highly
mineralized areas in Nevada, New Mexico, and Arizona.
