WMT Secures Letter of Intent for Phase II of Hangzhou Soil Remediation Project

March 28, 2014

Calgary, Alberta – March 27, 2014 – West Mountain Capital Corp. (“the Company” or “WMT”) today announces that its Chinese wholly owned foreign enterprise, Shanghai Phase Separation Environmental Protection Engineering Co. Ltd. (“PS2SH”) received a Letter of Intent from Hangzhou DADI Environmental Protection Engineering Co. Ltd. (“Dadi”) in respect of awarding a subcontract to PS2SH for its treatment of an additional 70,000 to 100,000 tonnes of contaminated soil (“Phase II”) under the Hangzhou Soil Remediation Project.

In August 2012, the Company secured a subcontract with Dadi to treat 33,000 tonnes of pesticide-contaminated soil as a full-scale commercial demonstration of TPS technology in China (“Phase I”).  Dadi’s contract for the entire Project involves the remediation of approximately 160,000 tonnes of contaminated soil and, in accordance with the terms of the original subcontract, Dadi may offer the Company additional volumes once the 33,000 tonnes is completed.  To date the Company has treated 27,400 tonnes of soil under Phase I and expects to complete its obligations in May of 2014.

“Based on the exceptional performance of the TPS technology and the professionalism of our team on Phase I, Dadi and the customer are offering our Company 70,000 to 100,000 tonnes of additional soil for treatment”, said Paul Antle, President and CEO “this is a monumental volume of soil which we are fully prepared to handle.”

It is expected that the subcontract for Phase II will be executed by mid-April 2014 and commence immediately upon completion of Phase I.  The main pesticide contaminants to be removed from the soil are the carcinogens DDT, DDE and DDD.  The Company’s TPS  technology  will  safely  extract  all  the  organic  compounds  present  in  the  soil rendering it inert without producing any harmful emissions and recovering all process water for treatment and reuse.

“In China, Dadi has proven to be an excellent industry partner for us in the field of soil remediation”,  said  Antle.      “Our  staff work  well  together  and  are  building  a  great reputation  for  getting  the  job  done.    We  are  looking  forward  to  exploring  other opportunities with Dadi in the months ahead.”

“To put Phase II in perspective, the Company’s soil treatment facility in Wolseley, SK processed 16,000 tonnes over a 5-year period.  Phase I and Phase II together could total as much as 133,000 tonnes – an average sized project in the Chinese market”, said Antle.
