Abstract:
GREM USA (the "Company") (OTCBB: GRUS). Edward Miers, President and CEO, announced today that GREM USA has entered into negotiations to acquire Nanogold Corp., a Canadian R&D corporation specializing in Nano Gold Technology. Nanogold Corp. is presently involved in a joint venture with a prominent Chinese University to develop Nano Metal Applications.

GREM USA Is Presently in Negotiations to Acquire Nanogold Corp. Which Is Conducting Ongoing R&D With a Prominent Chinese University for the Developmen

FORT WAYNE, IN | Posted on May 7th, 2007

Nanogold Corp. is developing chemical processing for the production of Nanoscale Gold Powder. The research team at the Chinese University has several years experience in chemical processing for the production of nanoscale metals and oxide powders. They have successfully produced nanoscale powders of Ag, Ni and numerous oxides such as Fe(2)O3, CuO, ZnFe(2)O4. Based on the investigation of their literature and their research experience, it is possible to make nanoscale gold powder by means of their chemical processing.

The properties of "nanogold," or gold particles are so tiny -- containing hundreds or even tens of atoms -- they must be measured in nanometers. (One nm is equal to one one-billionth of a meter.) As is true with other materials, gold in "nano" form exhibits significantly different properties from bulk gold. As is known, normal bulk gold is shinny, gold in color, and inert, as well as it conducts electricity. However, if gold is shrunk to a nanoparticle, its properties change dramatically. Its color changes, it becomes a very good catalyst, and it turns into a high performance semiconductor.

The unique properties of gold at the nanoscale are ensuring that gold is the candidate material for nanotechnology applications in the diverse areas of electronics, catalysis, colors and coatings and the biomedical sector. Specific examples of technologies considering or already using gold are listed below as follows:

-- Low resistance printable gold nanoparticulate inks for flexible
electronics
-- Gold nanowires for interconnections in future leading edge electronic
devices
-- Nanoparticulate gold colloid for rapid tests and biomedical assays
-- Gold-silica nanoshells for targeted destruction of cancer cells
-- Improved decorative coatings using thiol stabilized gold nanoparticles
-- Thermosetting gold nanoparticle containing paints exhibiting novel
aesthetic effects
-- Nanoparticulate gold catalysts for pollution control and chemical
synthesis
-- Fuel cell electrocatalysts based on carbon supported nanoparticulate
gold


In each case, major industrial end-users are pursuing the development of these technologies. It is considered that gold will be a key material in many future nanotechnology based products and processes.

Nanogold Corp. believes it will be in position to supply Nano Gold Powder to the emerging Industries utilizing the nano gold in the development of new products.

GREM USA contemplated and compelling objectives with this anticipated acquisition are to work with Nanogold Corp and the prominent Chinese University in the development of Nano Gold Powers utilizing proprietary chemical processes; once fully developed, patent protection will be sought.

The management of both GREM USA and Nanogold Corp., as part of their due diligence process, will be traveling to China in the near future to finalize this joint venture with the Chinese University for this new and innovative technology.
