Key Events in 2007
LONDON, England United Kingdom (EWORLDWIRE) Jan 14, 2008
The following communication is provided by the Board of Green Machine Development Corporation (GMDC) to shareholders:
The past 12 month period has been a year of solid progress for the company.
Takeover Rumors
A number of shareholders have contacted the company concerning rumors of a takeover. We have replied to those queries and restated in this announcement that the company is continuously in discussions with diverse parties concerning operations in the normal course of business of the company. Additionally, we keep in contact with other like minded "western" miners who operate in the vicinity and in the same country.
It is the board's objective to seek a joint venture or similar relationship with a major miner and to list the company's securities on a London and/or European stock market. Your board is pursuing this objective with vigor. As at this date, we are not in any merger, takeover or JV discussions. Should this situation change, the company will make timely announcements on the public medium and on its Web site.
