West Mountain Capital Corp–PS2 Successfully Completes TPS Demonstration in Suzhou, China

Calgary, Alberta – July 3, 2012 – West Mountain Capital Corp. (“the Company” or “WMT”) today announces that its 100% owned subsidiary Phase Separation Solutions Inc. (“PS2”) has completed the demonstration of its Thermal Phase Separator (TPS) technology in Suzhou, China.

With the cooperation of its Chinese partner, the Nanjing Institute of Environmental Science (“NIES”), the Company completed the treatment of an inventory of pesticide contaminated soil that had been stockpiled by NIES in Suzhou, China. The demonstration was completed by a joint Sino-Canadian operations team and overseen by NIES on behalf of the Chinese Ministry of Environmental Protection. All required data from the demonstration was collected and evaluated by NIES who then confirmed it was an unquestionable success.

“We have now demonstrated and proven the effectiveness of our TPS technology in China. Analyses of the treated soil for pesticides such as DDT, DDD and DDE indicate contaminant removal below the accepted local criteria, and in most cases was non-detectable,” reports Paul Antle, President and CEO. “I am extremely proud of our Canadian and Chinese personnel who worked very hard to support and execute the demonstration.”

Prior to the start of the demonstration NIES organized an official Opening Ceremony attended by special guests and VIPs. “We were extremely pleased to host a number of China’s Ministry of Environmental Protection officials, provincial environmental protection bureau personnel, as well as various local and provincial Chinese government representatives. Representatives from the Canadian Consulate in Shanghai and the Embassy in Beijing were also in attendance to support our company,” said Antle. “NIES did an outstanding job promoting the demonstration project, our technology, and supporting the demonstration operations.”

The path is now clear for PS2 to deploy the TPS technology for commercial projects throughout China, the first of such deployments is expected before the end of 2012.
