Lantis Laser Inc., under its worldwide exclusive rights for the dental field for Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) technology, is developing its OCT Dental Imaging System(TM) for early detection of oral diseases. OCT is a new class of diagnostic imaging technology that utilizes advanced photonics and fiber optics to obtain images never before possible. Operating similar to ultrasound, but using light instead of sound, OCT has an image resolution of 8-25 times greater than any other existing imaging modality. OCT is also being researched in the field of cancer detection where it is ideally suited because of its ability to image at the cellular level. Most cancers begin as malformed cells and if caught early, may be curable. However, cells are too small to be imaged by existing medical imaging technologies. OCT is ideal for imaging in the gastrointestinal and in certain situations eliminates the need for biopsy due to its ultra-high resolution. Lantis intends participating in research on the early detection of oral cancers.
Lantis Laser Inc. is focused on developing its exclusive OCT Dental Imaging System™ for use in general dentistry under License from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and LightLab Imaging. Lantis was formed to commercialize the application of novel technologies in the dental industry. The criteria for selected products include competitive edge, exclusivity and large market potential.

Endeavour Silver Corporation (AMEX: EXK)
Endeavour Silver Corporation (AMEX: EXK) – Monday’s shares went up 3.49% to $5.04. The volume was 260,101. Endeavour Silver Corp. announced on February 7th that recent drilling has outlined three new high grade silver mineralized zones at the Guanacevi Mines Project, Durango, Mexico. The Alex Breccia zone is located 800 m southwest of the historic Santa Cruz mine along the Santa Cruz vein; the La Prieta zone occurs at the south end of the Santa Cruz property 300 m further southwest from the Alex Breccia; and the El Pelayo vein forms a north-trending splay off the Santa Cruz vein 500 m north of the Santa Cruz mine. All three zones previously produced minor amounts of ore from small underground mine workings. Four of the eight La Prieta drill holes intersected silver mineralization of economic interest over a 100 m length to a 200 m depth below Santa Cruz mine level #6, partly open for expansion. La Prieta is a smaller target that will be left for further drilling until after Alex Breccia is fully explored. The El Pelayo mine lies on a vein splay of the Santa Cruz vein system that intersects the Santa Cruz vein to the south of the Porvenir mine ramp. It was developed in the past by two short adits. A 179 m length of the El Pelayo vein returned 570 gpt silver and 0.94 gpt gold over an average width of 1.4 m (18.1 oz per ton Ag equivalent over 4.6 ft). The highest grade sample assayed 1006 gpt silver and 1.4 gpt gold over a 0.8 m thickness (31.4 oz per ton Ag equivalent over 2.6 ft) and the thickest vein sample graded 338 gpt silver and 0.5 gpt gold over a 3.9 m width (10.7 oz per ton Ag equivalent over 12.8 ft). Bradford Cooke, Chairman and CEO, commented, “We are very encouraged by the fact that new high grade silver mineralized zones continue to be outlined at the Guanacevi Mines Project, even after two years of continuous drilling along the Santa Cruz vein system. Once these new discoveries are modelled for resource estimation, Endeavours operations team will schedule these zones for mining as part of a minimum five year mine plan.”
Endeavour Silver Corporation is a small-cap silver mining company focused on the growth of its silver production, resources and reserves in Mexico. The expansion plan now underway at the high grade, Guanacevi mines project in Durango should propel Endeavour into the ranks of the top 5 primary silver producers in the world. Endeavour stands out from other primary silver companies for its high silver grades (+15 oz. per ton), its high silver leverage (+90%), the substantial exploration upside of the Santa Cruz property (+30 million oz), the potential capacity of the Guanacevi plant and the organic growth potential of these core assets.
