The United States House of Representatives continues support for liquid coal products in recently passed "Energy Bill II"

    SILVERADO - OTCBB: SLGLF / Frankfurt: SLGL / Berlin: SLGL

    FAIRBANKS, AK and VANCOUVER, Oct. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Last
Friday, October 7, the United States House of Representatives passed H.R.
3893, The Gasoline for America's Security Act of 2005 - commonly known as the
"Energy Bill II", a reference to the long-awaited Energy Bill that was passed
and signed into law this past summer.
    The Energy Bill that was signed into law on August 8 authorized the
development of low-rank coal-water fuel at several locations in the
legislation. "Energy II" addresses the lack of refining capability in the
United States, and most significantly for Silverado Green Fuel Inc., it also
includes the definition of a refinery as "...a facility designed and operated
to receive, load, unload, store, transport, process and refine coal by any
chemical or physical process, including liquefaction, in order to produce
...liquid fuel as its primary output..."
    "I am very happy to see the continued support the United States Congress
is giving the coal to liquid fuel process. The language in H.R. 3893 clearly
shows that the intent of the House of Representatives is to continue the
support they began when they authorized our Low-Rank Coal-Water Fuel Project
in the first Energy Bill," said Garry Anselmo, Chairman and CEO of Silverado
Green Fuel Inc. "We at Silverado have realized for years that low-rank
coal-water fuel is one of the critical keys to easing America's energy crisis.
It is clearly evident that this is a product and process whose time has come,
and the U.S. Congress recognizes the role coal plays in filling the urgent
need for America to be energy self-sufficient."
    The legislation also addresses the petroleum needs of the United States
military, making provisions for refineries whose exclusive purpose would be to
supply the Armed Forces, among other national priority needs.
    According to Anselmo, "Silverado has many funding options available at
this time along with private options. We continue to work with not only
federal officials, but those at the state and local level as well. We are
extremely optimistic about our Low-Rank Coal-Water Fuel Project, and have been
well-received at all levels of government."
