American Video Teleconferencing Corp. (Pink Sheets:AVOT) is pleased to announce that it is presently in final discussions to enter into a formal agreement to acquire an exclusive option on a molybdenum property in the Otter lake area in the province of Quebec, Canada.

The property has been dormant since the 1960's when Hupon Mining and Exploration carried out surface work, stripping, trenching and a minor drill program of 445 feet contained in 11 drill holes. Some of the sample results from the trenching in 1962 showed 0.94% to 25% molybdenum averaging 5-10%. These values were obtained from assessment files in the Department of Mines in Quebec City.

This property is only one of several advanced stage properties American Video has under consideration in the province of Quebec.

China is the world's major producer of rare earth elements, many of which are used in today's technology, such as new energy sources and hybrid cars. China announced in July that it will slash exports for minerals used to make hybrid cars and televisions by 72 percent in the second half of the year.

China has begun to drastically restrict the exports of rare-earth materials, which frequently find use in “green” technology designs, which includes hybrid vehicles and energy-efficient lighting, also in the medical, defense, and consumer markets. The country delivers nearly 100% of the world’s rare-earth materials: 17 metals which can be hard to refine and that also often occur in alike ore deposits. The cutbacks have resulted in shock waves throughout the electronics industry and might force design changes in the longer term.

Constraints on Chinese exports are forming opportunities for non-Chinese projects.

American Video will aggressively continue to search world-wide for opportunities in Precious, Base and Rare Earths metal projects.
