Lantis Laser's Operating Affiliated Company TAG Minerals Zimbabwe (Private) Limited (TAG-Z) Orders First HPC-30 Gold Recovery System to Commence Its Own Organic Alluvial Surface Gold Mining Operations

FREEHOLD, N.J., Aug. 30, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lantis Laser Inc. (OTCQB:LLSR.PK - News), is pleased to announce today that its operating affiliated company TAG Minerals Zimbabwe (Private) Limited (TAG-Z) has placed its first purchase order for a state-of-the-art HPC-30 Gold Recovery System. The HPC-30 system, purchased from IE-TEC Marketing Limited, boasts a large gravel/sand processing capability and is expected to serve TAG-Z well in its goal of becoming a cost-effective and economically viable mining company. TAG-Z will now be able to mine its own mineral claims as well as continuing to implement its strategy of acquiring seasoned mining/mineral companies to ramp up to a solid stream of continuous revenue for Lantis. TAG-Z has used two smaller exploratory HPC-10 machines for over one year to explore for gold and to bulk sample many miles of riverbed soils with gold bearing sands.

Tapiwa Gurupira, CEO of TAG-Z, and a director of Lantis, is spearheading TAG-Z's operations in Zimbabwe. Mr. Gurupira has formed many solid relationships with highly qualified and experienced mining professionals in Zimbabwe and has recently added two more outstanding professionals to TAG-Z's arsenal of experts, both possessing strong backgrounds in strategic mine planning, exploration and development, quarry management, geological consultancy and metallurgical expertise with local and international experience. Tapiwa Gurupira said: "With the price of gold soaring to $1800 an ounce recently, we believe that the timing could not be better for TAG-Z to commence its own mining operations, as well as to continue to stay focused on its other main corporate objective of executing strategic acquisitions of seasoned and sound mining companies that possess solid prospects, with synergies that align well with that of TAG-Z."

Greig Oppenheimer, CEO of IE-TEC Marketing Limited, as well as a director of Lantis, added "IE-TEC is very excited to build and deliver to TAG-Z its first HPC-30 Gold Recovery System and fully expects to fill many more orders from TAG-Z for IE-TEC's internationally patented lines of Heavy Particle Concentrators (HPC) Gold Recovery and Mineral Separation Systems." He went on to say, "IE-TEC's HPC technology allows for 95% to 98% gold recovery down to 50 microns in size. The process is environmentally safe for the land, as well as for its people, as the HPC system uses no chemicals whatsoever in performing its purpose, which is the efficient extraction of gold and/or other minerals in mining operations."
