(“Stans Energy” or the “Company”), (TSX-V: HRE, OTCQX: HREEF), Honorary Consul to Canada for the Kyrgyz Republic and Former Canadian Ambassador to Russia, is pleased to report that senior representatives of the Canadian government attended meetings with Kyrgyz government officials to demonstrate their support for the Company’s initiatives at Kutessay II.

Canadian Member of Parliament, Bob Dechert; Parliamentary Secretary to Foreign Minister John Baird, accompanied by Trade Commissioner Marc Andre Savage from the Canadian Embassy met with senior Kyrgyz government officials. The goal of these meetings was to provide support for Canadian mining companies operating in Kyrgyzstan. Stans Energy’s local representatives were pleased to brief the Canadian visitors on company activities, providing a corporate update in preparation for their calls on Kyrgyz officials and to discuss the value Canadian firms can bring to Kyrgyz economic priorities in the mining sector.

“This demonstration of support by Canadian government representatives, promotes Canada’s commitment in encouraging business ties with developing economies in Central Asia, particularly in extractive industries. We are eager to continue our working relationship with the Kyrgyz authorities in an effort to put the Kutessay II Heavy Rare Earth mine back into production,” states Rodney Irwin, Chairman of Stans Energy.
