TORONTO, June 10, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aspire International Inc. (Pink Sheets:APIT) today announced that it has purchased a private Nevada corporation, Rare Earth Resources Ltd., for the purpose of holding various mining assets it intends to acquire.

The company has been actively pursuing attractive mineral property opportunities and expects to announce its initial acquisition shortly.

About Aspire International

Aspire International Inc., , is a U.S. corporation whose executive offices are in Toronto, Ont., Canada. The company recently acquired and now operates a Hong Kong-based international B2C shopping mall, , "My Global Online Shop" (Mygos) – an e-commerce platform that enables anyone to start his or her own business online. Mygos currently hosts over 80,000 active stores.   

Aspire also intends to acquire, explore and develop world-class mineral properties in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region of southwestern China, prospective in particular for manganese and gold.

The company's principal manganese mining target is a property that covers an area of 21.3 square kilometers containing 7.4 million metric tons of ore according to an NI 43-101 compliant report certified by a qualified geologist with more than thirty years experience. The on-site operations are led by a highly capable Chinese management team.

Recently a LOI was executed to acquire a majority interest in a 3.95 square kilometer concession (also located in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region) known to contain a minimum of five zones of gold mineralization, of which two are in production and considered economically viable. According to government geologists and recent geological survey work, the property may contain over one million metric tons of commercially mineable gold-bearing ore, with considerable additional potential to further expand the resource.
