MILITARY and AEROSPACE SECURITY UPGRADE with VALDOR TECHNOLOGY
Monday, May 09, 2011
(via Thenewswire.ca)
Hayward, California - May 9, 2011: Valdor Technology International Inc. ("Valdor") (TSX-V: VTI) is pleased to report that Valdor technology will be used in the upgrade to a new surveillance and security system at a major U.S. military and aerospace base. A military contractor, who has purchased IMT (Impact Mount? Technology) kits and installed IMT connectors at this military base for the past ten years, has recently upgraded their original IMT kits with Valdor's new Omega Kits. The Valdor components have performed extremely well during this extended period of operation. The new kits include Valdor's Omega Enclosure products for cable repair and extension in the field. The contractor for this base, Mr. John Pitre, is a veteran in the installation of fiber optics systems. He and his team will be installing these state-of-the-art Valdor products.
Mr. John Pitre has written the following testimonial on the Valdor technology:
"I am a fiber optics installer and I have used Valdor's ST Impact Mount connector and installation technology [table top model] with great success in various outdoor applications. The installations were typically used in harsh environments subject to extreme hot and cold temperatures. This technology has proven its value over a ten year period, after initial install, with superb longevity. The Valdor IMT Kits are high quality and do not have the mess and inconvenience associated with products that use gel, epoxy or hot melts. I would highly recommend the Valdor connectivity products to any fiber optics contractor who has a need for reliability, longevity and easy termination. Thank you, Valdor, for a product, on its own platform, that meets or exceeds our requirements for fiber connection and termination."
About the Fiber Optics Industry: Fiber optics is the future of communications and fiber optic connectors are one of the major profit centres within this market. The signal transmission business is in the early stages of a fiber optics bull market. All signal transmission, in their many and various forms, are being converted from electrical, using copper wire and coaxial cable, to fiber optics. In the USA the Obama administration has recently pledged an initial US$7.2-billion to a plan that calls for 100 million Americans to have access to super high speed internet. This high speed internet will require significant fiber optic infrastructure. The annual global market for fiber optic connectors is projected to grow to US$3.45 billion in 2011 (ElectroniCast Consultants: www.electronicastconsultants.com).
About Valdor Technology International Inc. (www.valdortech.com): Valdor is a high technology fiber optic components company specializing in the design and manufacture of new generation fiber optic connectors, laser pigtails and other optical and optoelectronic components using its proprietary patented Impact Mount? and HeptoPort? technologies.
The Valdor line of connectors incorporates the user friendly and environmentally friendly Impact Mount? technology. Valdor's patented Impact Mount? technology is all-mechanical with no epoxy or index matching gel required.

Thanks very much guys, appreciate all of the responses!
The thing I can't seem to get my head around is that NOT hasn't seen any type of formal offer for their ROF holdings.
Many here comment on how NOT has $10B+ in the ground, or that the Ontario government is willing to invest millions into the Northern infrastructure. That not has a (conservative) NPV value for Eagle 1 alone of over $500M, with huge upside potential. That substantial efforts have been invested in the local communities to increase corporate citizenship....massive land package....huge drilling program...AT12 potential.....etc.
Yet NOT sits here with a current market cap of under $170M!
I just don't understand why there has not been any attempt to snatch this thing up for cheap by some of the bigger fish? I would think that simple greed would be enough to entice some of these larger players to put in a stink bid....but nothing....even as other neighbours are being bought up/into....and NOT's sp sinks further.
I believe that our sp is where its at becuase of the poor results from the 2010 drilling program, but again, doesn't this present a huge opportunity for someone to take NOT out for cheap. IMO if I was on the other side of the fence (large major) I'd be looking to take advantage of this low sp.
Does this mean potential suitors believe the sp will fall further? That NOT is possibly to risky and not worth $170M? That management is not even willing to entertain any offers at this point?
Forgive me if this has already been discussed,
Chris
Agreed, very nice results so far.
Based on:
"Selected highlights of the results to date are provided below; further results are pending."
and
"Samples with gold concentrations between 2.0 ppm and 10.0 ppm are being check-assayed, whereas those with higher concentrations are being re-assayed by metallic-screen methods to confirm values."
as well as Glorieux's post regarding re-assays....
Is there more good news to come?

I hear you semismart, I won't let you guys get rich without me either! Any thoughts on when we'll hear word on those outstanding assays?
My apologies if this has already been discussed.
