Slovak Republic District Court of Kosice Issues Injunction in Enforcement of Supreme Court Ruling Ordering Return of Gemerska Poloma Talc Deposit to Rozmin EuroGas, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: EUGS) today announced that, following the decision by the Supreme Court of Slovak Republic to return the Germerska Poloma Talc Deposit to Rozmin s.r.o. (a Slovak company in which EuroGas has agreements to acquire a 90% interest), the District Court of Kosice, Slovak Republic, has granted an injunction in favor of Rozmin. The injunction ordered the immediate stoppage of all works at Gemerska Poloma, refraining VSK Eurotalc s.r.o. and its wholly-owned subsidiary VSK Mining s.r.o. from all activities directly or indirectly connected with the opening, preparation and extraction of the talc deposit at Gemerska Poloma.
In April 2005, Economy Agency s.r.o., a Slovak shell company ("EA"), was granted the mining concession by the Slovak Republic's Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources' administrative mining office unit at Spisska Nova Ves, Slovak Republic. EA subsequently amalgamated with VSK Mining s.r.o. The Supreme Court of the Slovak Republic recently voided that concession transfer in a non-appealable ruling that EuroGas announced on April 24, 2008. This injunction not only enforces the ruling of the Supreme Court of Slovak Republic, but also orders VSK not to transfer or dispose of the Gemerska Poloma mining property or transfer the concession to a third party and to return the mine to Rozmin. In addition, Rozmin has filed a civil lawsuit against VSK Mining last Thursday claiming damages. Rozmin has also asked the General District Attorney's office in Bratislava to investigate certain individuals involved in the illegal transfer of the Gemerska Poloma deposit from Rozmin to EA/VSK in April 2005. EuroGas, Inc. has an agreement to purchase a 57% interest in Rozmin s.r.o. from Belmont Resources Ltd, subject to receipt of a last final purchase price payment in the amount of approximately $ 1,000,000. The remaining interests in Rozmin are held by and registered in the name of EuroGas Austria GmbH, a wholly-owned subsidiary of McCallan Oil & Gas (UK) Ltd., which owns a 33% interest in Rozmin; EuroGas recently announced that it had entered into agreements to acquire up to a 100% interest in McCallan Oil & Gas (UK) Ltd., which would give it effective ownership of a 90% interest in the deposit. The remaining 10% interest is held by private German investors. Rozmin s.r.o. is a closely held Slovak mining company which controls the massive Gemerska Poloma talc deposit with an estimated 150 million ton carbonate reserve in Eastern Slovakia. The talc deposit Gemerska Poloma, named after the village where it was discovered in Eastern Slovakia, is one of the largest talc deposits worldwide. The carbonate type deposit and resulting purity of the valuable mineral enhances the efficiency of the benefication process and allows a higher purity to be attained in the final project. EuroGas intends to bring the Germerska Poloma deposit into commercial production.
