NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 22, 2006--
Veridium Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: VRDM) today announced its plans to sell high grade corn oil to Mean Green BioFuels Corporation ("Mean Green") for refining into biodiesel fuel.
Earlier this month, Veridium and Mean Green announced their execution of a joint venture agreement pursuant to which Veridium was assigned the exclusive worldwide rights to what was then Mean Green's patent-pending Corn Oil Extraction System(TM). In return, Veridium agreed to provide Mean Green with right of first refusal rights to its various biodiesel feedstocks including the high grade corn oil that Veridium extracts from an ethanol by-product called distillers dried grain ("DDG") patent-pending Corn Oil Extraction System(TM).
Veridium's pricing model for its Corn Oil Extraction Systems(TM) is based on its provision of its turn-key systems for no up-front cost in return for long-term corn oil purchase agreements based on a fixed discount to prevailing corn oil market prices. Veridium will purchase and sell the extracted corn oil as a high grade corn oil product and generate an estimated $1.4 million in annualized revenues per ethanol facility.
Veridium will continue to generate revenues at this rate until Mean Green's first biodiesel production facility commences operations, at which point Mean Green will purchase the oil from Veridium based on a fixed discount to prevailing fuel prices. This amount corresponds to a premium to corn oil market prices and is expected to result in an estimated 25% increase in Veridium's corn oil sales to about $1.8 million per year per ethanol facility once Mean Green starts making biodiesel.
Veridium and Mean Green are both portfolio companies of GreenShift Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: GSHF), a publicly traded business development company (BDC) whose mission is to develop and support companies and technologies that facilitate the efficient use of natural resources and catalyze transformational environmental gains.
Kevin Kreisler, GreenShift's chairman and chief executive officer, said that "a vital aspect of GreenShift's investment philosophy is to have our various portfolio companies work together to assist each other in their respective development plans. In this case, we have Veridium out selling its proprietary Corn Oil Extraction Systems(TM) with a sales model that is profitable for Veridium today but that also secures a large volume of biodiesel feedstock at favorable prices. Simultaneously, we have Mean Green out building their biodiesel production capacity with the expectation that Veridium will own enough biodiesel feedstock to allow Mean Green to commence operations at its first biodiesel facility later this year at greater than break-even rates of production."
About Mean Green BioFuels Corporation
Mean Green intends to finance, build and operate several biodiesel production facilities in the U.S., where it will leverage its proprietary oil recovery technologies to reduce America's dependence on foreign oil by producing high quality biodiesel fuels. With assistance as necessary from GreenShift, and at the option of participating facilities, Mean Green plans to make equity and other investments in ethanol producers and other companies that use Mean Green's innovative technologies.
Mean Green plans to aggressively invest in its brand as it promotes the use of biofuels in America with the objective of offsetting the demand for fossil fuels while reducing harmful greenhouse gas emissions directly in the trenches - in as many diesel burning trucks, tractors, other heavy equipment and industrial facilities as possible.
Mean Green's business model is based on the production of biodiesel out of the following sources:
-- soy bean oil;
-- animal fats procured from rendering operations;
-- corn oil extracted from ethanol facilities; and
-- animal fats derived from dissolved air flotation wastewater
sludges.
Biodiesel is a clean burning alternative fuel that contains no petroleum. It can be blended at any level with petroleum diesel to create a biodiesel blend, it can be used in diesel engines with little or no modifications, and it is simple to use, biodegradable, nontoxic, and essentially free of sulfur and aromatics. Over 37 billion gallons of petroleum diesel are used for domestic transportation each year in the U.S. The total demand for diesel fuel approaches 50 billion gallons per year when construction, farming and other off-road uses are considered. The current production of biodiesel in the U.S. is less than 100 million gallons per year leaving a considerable demand for the renewable fuel.

MOUNT ARLINGTON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 23, 2006--
Veridium Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: VRDM) today announced its new patent-pending technology for the conversion of exhaust carbon dioxide from the fermentation stage of ethanol production facilities back into new ethanol and biodiesel.
Earlier this year, Veridium announced its patented bioreactor process for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from fossil-fuelled combustion processes. The new technology is simple, robust and scalable, and was designed to stimulate additional revenues for power plant operators while decreasing plant emissions. Veridium's bioreactor is based on a new strain iron-loving blue-green algae discovered thriving in a hot stream at Yellowstone National Park. The algae use the available carbon dioxide and water to grow new algae, giving off pure oxygen and water vapor in the process. Once the algae grow to maturity, they fall to the bottom of the bioreactor where the algae can be harvested for other uses several times per day. One such use is conversion into clean fuels such as ethanol and biodiesel.
Ethanol is made from starch-based feedstocks and biodiesel is made from animal fats and vegetable oils. Corn, the primary feedstock for ethanol production today, contains about 66% starch and 3-4% oil.
Veridium's new BioStarch Recirculation System(TM) routes exhaust carbon dioxide from the fermentation stage of the ethanol production process through Veridium's bioreactor where it is consumed by algae that are comprised of about 94% starch and about 6% oil.
"The algae convert exhaust carbon dioxide and sunlight into biomass," said David Winsness, chief executive officer of Veridium's industrial design division. "This biomass is a very efficient feedstock for ethanol production and is itself a concentrated source of the primary ingredient of ethanol. It doubles in mass several times per day - a rate much faster than plants, and it does all of this on a footprint that is orders of magnitude less than the surface area required for crops. That said, this technology is by no means a replacement for crops. Traditional ethanol feedstocks are still required to generate the quantities of carbon dioxide needed to make our bioreactor effective."
Kevin Kreisler, Veridium's chairman, added that: "this is about enhancing the efficiency of our domestic ethanol production infrastructure and doing it as quickly as possible. Our goal here was to increase ethanol production and plant profitability on reduced capital and operating cost by using as much as possible of the plant's existing infrastructure. We believe that we were successful in doing so here and that appreciable gains in ethanol production are probable. We are actively seeking an early adopter of the technology for our first deployment to prove out our projected gains."
Veridium has already made significant gains in profitability possible for ethanol producers with its patent-pending Corn Oil Extraction Systems(TM) by extracting corn oil, which is an excellent biodiesel feedstock, from an ethanol production by-product called distillers dried grain.
The 6% oil contained in the algae used in Veridium's new BioStarch Recirculation System(TM) is also expected to further increase the production of oil from Veridium's Corn Oil Extraction System(TM). This results in the production of increased volumes of high grade biodiesel feedstocks from each host ethanol facility, increased profitability for host ethanol facilities, and increased revenues for Veridium.
About Veridium's Corn Oil Extraction System(TM)
Currently, the majority of ethanol production is based on a dry milling technique that utilizes more than 1 billion bushels of corn to produce 3 billion gallons per year of ethanol (Fuel #1). The dry mill process converts the starch from the kernel of corn into sugar and then the sugar into ethanol. The balance of the corn (non-starch components) then goes through a dewatering and dehydration process where the byproduct is sold as a commercial feed ingredient called distillers dried grain ("DDG"). DDG contains the majority of the corn oil that was present in the kernel. Today, the 1 billion bushels of corn currently used in the dry mill ethanol process contain roughly 300 million gallons of corn oil that is currently sold for about $0.03 per pound as commercial feed. The new Veridium technology presents another option - cost effective conversion into Biodiesel (Fuel #2).
Veridium's Corn Oil Extraction System(TM) offers the following compelling benefits for ethanol producers:
-- Low Operating Costs - the system requires less than $0.05 per
gallon of corn oil produced;
-- High Recovery Rates - the technology is capable of recovering
up to 75% of the corn oil within the DDG;
-- Increased Revenue - the corn oil extracted with Veridium's
technology is readily amenable to refining into biodiesel fuel
which creates a new revenue stream for participating ethanol
facilities;
-- Reduces Current Operating Costs and Emissions - Veridium's
technology improves the drying efficiency of the DDG which in
turn reduces overall plant operating costs and emissions; and,
-- Low Capital Cost - Veridium's oil extraction methods have a
capital cost of less than 15% of traditional corn oil
extraction methods.
Pictures and video of the new Veridium technology are available online at www.meangreenbiofuels.com - this system is in use today and efficiently recovers corn oil from concentrated thin stillage.

Unser Topfavorit in den USA ist GreenShift Corp., die seit dem 1. April 2005 an der OTCBB als so genannte Business Development Company (BDC) gehandelt wird. BDCs bieten kleineren und mittleren Unternehmen ein Umfeld, sich durch Investments von privaten und öffentlichen Anlegern sowie durch Venture Capital von Finanzinstitutionen auf eine sichere finanzielle Basis zu stellen. Durch Anwendung verschiedener finanzwirtschaftlicher Instrumente kann sich eine BDC dann auf seine Geschäftstätigkeit konzentrieren. Ohne dies bekämen junge Unternehmen nur begrenzt Zugang zu strategischen Investmentkapital und anderen Ressourcen zur weiteren Unternehmensentwicklung. Gleichzeitig bietet eine BDC einen Rahmen für Investoren, eine angemessene Verzinsung des eingesetzten Kapitals zu erzielen. Dies erfolgt durch vierteljährliche Auszahlung des zu versteuernden Ergebnisses in Form von Dividenden.

GreenShift hat sich ganz und gar dem Umweltgedanken verschrieben und ist als ein diversifiziertes Portfolio von Umweltunternehmen aufgestellt. Unseren Recherchen nach sind dies die derzeit wichtigsten Beteiligungen:
Ø Veridium Corporation
GreenShift hält 65 % der Anteile an Veridium (VRDM). Der Kurs von Veridium konnte in den letzten Tagen in den USA deutlich zulegen und ist derzeit die interessanteste GreenShift Beteiligung.
Am 21. Februar vermeldete Veridium einen Auftrag von Glacial Lakes Energy, LLC zur Nutzung des patentierten Corn Oil Extraction System(TM). Diese neue Technologie ermöglicht eine Steigerung des gewonnenen Ehtanols aus Getreide um 50% und mehr. Die Erlöse werden dabei indirect durch langfristige Beschaffungsverträge mit dem Auftraggeber erzielt, der Veridium die Abnahme von Ethanol mit einem zum Marktpreis festen Preisabschlag zusagt. Der Weiterverkauf des Ethanols wird jährlich etwa 1,4 Mio. Dollar zusätzliche Einnahmen bringen. Entscheidend bei der neuartigen Technologie ist deutlich erhöhte Effizienz bei der Ethanolerzeugung, die reduzierten Kapitalkosten des Systems und der deutlich geringeren Herstellungskosten insgesamt je Gallone Ethanol.
Am 13. Februar verkündete Veridium eine Innovation bei der Distribution von Biotreibstoffen. Endverbraucher der von Veridium bezogenen Treibstoffe werden dadurch von Steuerdarlehen, die die US Regierung den Herstellern von Biotreibstoffen gewährt, mit profitieren. Ziel sei es, die Vertriebsstruktur weiter auszubauen und Biotreibstoffe für den Verbraucher attraktiver zu machen, bei der freien Wahl des Ethanolanteils im Treibstoff (0% bis 99%). Ermöglicht wird dies durch ein patentiertes Zapfsäulensystem und die Zusammenarbeit mit Mean Green BioFuels Corporation.
Ø Mean Green BioFuels
Mean Green bildet zusammen mit Greenshift ein Joint Venture und wurde Mitte 2005 gegründet. In einem Brief an die Aktionäre Anfang des Jahres bekräftigte David Cantrell (CEO) noch einmal, zwei der fünf bis Ende 2007 geplanten Biodiesel Produktionsanlagen in diesem Jahr zu errichten, jeweils mit einer Kapazität von 30 Mio. Gallonen pro Jahr. Dabei werde von Beginn an das Corn Oil Extraction System(TM) von Veridium eingesetzt. Neben der Produktion sollen bestehende Technologien weiterentwickelt und neue erforscht werden.

Auf Grund der mit ca. 8 Mio. Dollar äußerst geringen Marktkapitalisierung, des BDC Modells, der aussichtsreichen Story des Konzernportfolios, des anhaltend guten Newsflow und vor allem der einzigartigen innovativen Technologie in Herstellung und Vertrieb empfehlen wir die Aktien der Konzernmutter GreenShift Corp. und der Konzerntochter Veridium Corp.zum Kauf. Ein weiteres Kaufargument ist die Tatsache, dass ein wesentlicher Teil der ausgegebenen Aktien in festen Händen ist.
Derzeit bietet die GreenShift Aktie ein äußerst attraktives Einstiegsniveau, zu dem man sich auch am deutschen Parkett positionieren kann. Wir gehen von einer überaus positiven Kursentwicklung aus. Unser erstes Kursziel sehen wir bei 0,15 US$.
2, was beschwerst du Dich - es war jemand noch schneller als du
3. jetzt wo eine gshf Empfehlung kommt findest du gshf wieder super, obwohl du gshf immer NUR SCHLECHT geredet hast
4. was geht es dich an was ich für einen Thread eröffne, nur weil du bei Fusa falsch gelegen hast musst du ihr nicht dampf ablassen
gut finde ich was anderes aber hier werden noch jahre vergehn bevor hier 1 euro nur lcicht sehn sollte
Danke Fintelwuselwix.
Die Sache mit den Threads geht mir aber auch auf den Keks...ist schon schlimm genug, wenn man sich zu vielen Aktien informiert aber dann auch noch mehrere Threads zu einer einzigen Aktie durchscollen ist anstrengend...egal, solange immer nur einer relativ aktuell bleibt ;-)
Viel Spass morgen allen Greenshiftern!
hat einer eine info darüber, wann greenshift seine zahlen präsentieren will?
good luck
solange Sie nicht gleich Pleite gehen werden wir mit Sicherheit Kurse von 0,50-0,90 € sehen ( 1 Jahr ) ! Kurse bis 2,00 € wären natürlich auch nicht schlecht :) aber dies hängt von den Zahlen ende nächsten Monat ab.
Und auf geht’s !
