Orbite Becomes Orbite Technologies Inc.


MONTRÉAL, QUÉBEC--(Marketwired - June 15, 2015) - Orbite Aluminae Inc. (TSX:ORT)(OTCQX:EORBF) ("Orbite" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that effective June 17, 2015, the Company will change its name to Orbite Technologies Inc. to better reflect Orbite's current vision and growth prospects, while emphasizing the importance of its technologies in its current and future growth plans. Accordingly, Orbite's website will change to www.orbitetech.com.

Concurrently with its name change, the Company's shares will begin trading under the "Industrial/Technology" listing segment on the Toronto Stock Exchange, instead of "Mining". The Company stock symbols will remain unchanged, namely "ORT" for the Toronto Stock Exchange and "EORBF" for the OTCQX.

"We have now met the requirements of the technology segment on the TSX, which has allowed us to effect this name change," stated Glenn Kelly, Orbite's CEO. "The new name is a much better reflection of who we are as an organization: a clean technology based industrial mineral-processing and resource development company looking to leverage our IP portfolio and capitalize on a number of significant commercial opportunities. Our primary activities are focused on specialty products, addressing high-value growth opportunities and supply-restricted emerging technology markets, as well as on waste monetization, turning liabilities into assets."
