<p>Mineseeker Operations Overseas Limited (&#8220;Mineseeker&#8221;), a British Virgin Islands corporation, has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with USA based Wamar International LLC.<span id="more-726"></span></p>
<p>This agreement provides Wamar with representation rights in the MENA region (Middle East and North African Arab speaking countries) and commits both parties to enter in good faith negotiations to establish a joint venture entity to handle contracts in this part of the world.</p>
<p>Wamar will provide offices at their international headquarters in Amman, staffed by four marketing and technical personnel. The business will be headed by Wamar’s special projects manager, Mr Nasri Nowar who has known Mineseeker for the last five years. Mr Nowar has evaluated the Mineseeker product, having visited the technology supplier in the USA with the Mineseeker team and has reviewed the photo mosaic process that forms an integral part of the Mineseeker Multi-spectral Imaging Radar (MIR) product.</p>
<p>Mr. Nabil Barakat, President, CEO and Founder of Wamar International commented, ‘Wamar is excited about forming a relationship with Mineseeker Operations. There is no doubt that this product is much needed in the MENA region and in all countries affected by landmines. The situation in our region has been very bad for many years and the cost of locating and clearing landmines and unexploded ordnance has been prohibitive as well as technically challenging. We believe that the Mineseeker system is workable and can offer hope to the millions of people affected by the landmine problem. I believe that Wamar has the expertise, infrastructure and ability to make a big difference, in conjunction with Mineseeker, with this most important humanitarian effort.’</p>
<p>Mike Kendrick, CEO of Mineseeker stated, ‘We are very pleased to have joined forces with Wamar International to strengthen our marketing efforts in this important region. Since we published the initial results and images from Croatia that demonstrated the potential of the system,  Mineseeker has been in negotiations with several companies with the intent of forming strategic alliances and partnerships that would give our product the global reach it needs’.</p>
<p>From today’s date, all sales enquiries from the MENA area are being passed to Wamar. This includes recent enquires from Kuwait, Egypt and Libya. Libya was in negotiations with Mineseeker until the 2011 revolution and the contract negotiation papers have now been passed onto Wamar to recommence talks with the new transitional government. At the time that negotiations were terminated, an initial contract valued at $25 million was drafted to survey areas in the western desert affected by World War Two landmines and unexploded ordnance.</p>
<p>Mr. Kendrick continued, ’Our team has already established Mineseeker Operations Southern Africa Ltd., which has led to substantive contract negotiations. Furthermore, we have been contacted by several companies around the world, including South and Central America as well as South East Asia, and expect to announce further developments in the near future’.</p>
<p>Ends</p>
<p>Wamar International LLC is a multinational group of companies and a leading provider of premium services across several industry sectors including power generation, oil and gas and aviation. It has offices in the USA, Middle East, South Africa, South America and Asia.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>April 4, 2012</p>
<p>Mineseeker Operations, the BVI-based landmine detection company, has released images of suspected landmines, buried beneath the surface.<span id="more-702"></span>Mineseeker deployed the technology in Croatia late 2010 for an industry demonstration and has, for the first time, released a sample of processed data that clearly show remarkable images of sub- surface objects.</p>
<p>The technology uses ground-penetrating synthetic aperture radar (GPSAR) to detect suspicious objects beneath the surface and then fuses that technology with a photo-mosaic image to precisely map the location of buried objects for use by teams of landmine removal technicians who clear the terrain.</p>
<p>Using this breakthrough technology will dramatically reduce the cost and time it takes to clear minefields using just traditional techniques. Clearing a single square kilometre of minefield using only traditional methods involves thousands of man-hours at a cost of several million dollars and with risk to the clearance teams from unmapped landmines.</p>
<p>This new technology is not only safer and faster but it comes at a fraction of the cost:  all of which means that huge tracts of former warzone land can now be cleared, reinhabited and put to work.</p>
<p>The Mineseeker product is developed from data captured by multiple sensors on-board a Robinson 44 helicopter, which can survey lands designated as mined at up to 5 square kilometres each day.</p>

<p>Reaffirming the United Nations’ commitment to work in cooperation with national authorities, territories, non-State actors, affected communities, and in partnership with non-governmental organizations (NGOs), donors, the private sector, international and regional organizations and others to reduce the humanitarian and socio-economic threats posed by mines and explosive remnants of war, Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon stated today on the International Day for Mine Awareness, “I call for universal adherence to these important treaties and for increased support for mine awareness and mine action. Landmines and explosive remnants of war hamper development and endanger lives. Let’s eliminate them together for a safe sustainable world&#8221;.</p>
<p>Notes.</p>
<p>Landmines represent a massive, man-made disaster, in post-conflict areas that kill or maim civilians every day in over 70 countries. It also has a devastating effect on the economy of the countries affected that are unable to use land, designated as mined, for commercial use and the production of food crops.</p>
<p>It has been estimated by the United Nations that there are up to 100 million landmines buried beneath the surface of the earth and between 200 and 800 thousand square kilometres of land affected. Someone, usually a woman or child, steps on a landmine every 20 minutes. It cripples, maims or kills these innocent victims.</p>
<p>The cost of finding the landmines is huge and time consuming. It is estimated that, without new technology, it could take 500 years to rid the planet  of landmines at a cost of $50 billion. The major cost is involved with laboriously searching for the buried objects. A mine operative can only clear 35 square metres per day, using a prodder.</p>
<p>To clear one square kilometre of land can cost more than $1 million, using traditional methods. The Landmine Monitor organisation stated that $637 million was spent on mine action in 2010 and only 200 square kilometres were cleared – more that $3 million per square kilometre.</p>
<p>Most of the cost is used searching for the buried object. Once located it is a simple and inexpensive process to remove the landmines.</p>
<p>It is estimated that 95% of the land searched by landmine operatives does not contain landmines but the threat prohibits use of the land.</p>
<p>Mineseeker will be able to survey the land at a rate of up to 5 square kilometres per day at a fraction of the cost and time it takes for traditional landmine clearance.</p>
<p>The plan is to survey the land, locate and ring fence the minefields and immediately release uncontaminated land back to the people for productive use. Once the minefields are located Mineseeker will produce multilayer maps, showing the location of the minefields so that landmine clearance companies can remove them quickly and safely.</p>
<p>The Mineseeker project began life 10 years ago with the formation of the Mineseeker Foundation. It tested the ground penetrating synthetic aperture radar (GPSAR) in Kosovo. However the equipment was heavy and had to be carried on an airship/blimp which was a vibration free platform. The cost was prohibitive, so Mineseeker formed a for-profit arm to raise finance in order to fund the deployment of a miniaturized system which now forms part of the company’s multi-spectral imaging radar (MIR).</p>
<p>The Mineseeker Foundation (<a href="http://www.mineseeker.org/">www.mineseeker.org</a>) whose founder Patron was Nelson Mandela, is now focused on landmine victim assistance.</p>

<p><strong>Africa</strong></p>
<p>Following recent meetings in South Africa, Mineseeker Operations Southern Africa have been invited for further contract talks concerning the land affected by unexploded ordnance in the region.<span id="more-697"></span></p>
<p>This is separate from the Angolan contract meetings scheduled for April in Luanda, which concern large areas of the country which were affected by landmines laid during the decades of civil war.</p>
<p>The landmine problem in Angola is severe and it was announced yesterday that, as an Ottawa Convention member State it is preparing its request for an extension of the deadline for the stipulations of article 5 of the document.</p>
<p>A five-year extension will enable the country to implement projects and programmes and produce a more realistic picture of the anti-personnel landmine prevalence in Angola.</p>
<p>‘As we know up to 95% of the land designated as mined is actually incorrectly classified’, commented Chief Executive, Mike Kendrick , ‘Mineseeker through its ability to quickly survey land can facilitate the release areas that are not mined and return them to productive use. This is of great importance to Angola in resettling its population back into rural areas to develop agriculture and the country’s vast natural resources,’ he added.</p>
<p><strong>Middle East</strong></p>
<p>Mineseeker Operations will receive guests from a Jordanian based large international group, at its UK offices on Thursday March 29<sup>th</sup>. The company recently made an approach and is interested in working with Mineseeker across a number of Middle Eastern countries. Of specific interest are Egypt and Jordan, as well as helping the new regime in Libya.</p>
<p>‘There are large areas of the Middle East affected by landmines, many of which date back to the Second World War,’ said Richard Trueman, Director of Operations. ‘Mineseeker technology is particularly suited to the type of task required in this region and we believe we can make a real difference to the problems the region continues to face from landmines and other unexploded ordnance’.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>March 16, 2012</p>
<p>Following successful meetings in Johannesburg, with senior generals of the South African Defence Force, Mineseeker has been asked to attend further meetings in Luanda, Angola . The meetings, scheduled for early April, have been arranged by Mineseeker Southern Africa and will take place with the Angolan authorities that are responsible for the landmine clearance in that country.<span id="more-692"></span></p>
<p>Angola is one of the most affected countries in Africa with up to 100,000 landmine victim amputees. Estimates of landmines in Angola range between 6 – 20 million. Apart from the obvious direct and crippling effect on the civil population, landmines are having a devastating effect on the Angolan economy. Much of the population has been displaced from homelands and mined areas are unable to produce crops to sustain the local people.</p>
<p>The Angolan Government is committed to eradicate landmines and re-home its people and has recently released funding to build homes in areas that are cleared.</p>
<p>Mineseeker will meet in Luanda with key stakeholders in the public and private sectors involved in the demining program, as a first step towards contract negotiations. Mineseeker will also register an Angolan company, in order to facilitate its commercial arrangements locally.</p>
<p>The technology used by Mineseeker is designed to locate minefields at a fraction of the cost and time of traditional methods. Once located, it is relatively inexpensive to remove landmine. The huge expense of mine clearance is accurately locating the minefields which can cost over $1 million per square Kilometre.</p>
<p>Landmine Monitor recently announced that in 2010, only 200 square kilometres of affected was cleared across the world, at a cost of $637 million – or over $3 million per square kilometre. The United Nations estimate that there are between 200 and 800 thousand square kilometres, in over 70 countries, that are designated as being mined.</p>
<p>MIneseeker is offering aerial surveys at a cost below $150,000 per square kilometre and can survey up to 5 sq k per day, combining ground penetrating radar and photo mosaic technology.</p>
<p>‘This is a major step forward for the company’ commented Group Chief Executive Officer Mike Kendrick, ‘We are delighted that our partnership in South Africa is already moving forward in such a positive manner’.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>David Tait is an experienced corporate executive. Having been educated in the UK, he worked for the Thomson/Britannia group across Europe before immigrating to Toronto in 1975 to work for WardAir, a Canadian charter airline.</p>
<p>From there he was recruited by Sir Freddie Laker to serve as the General Manager for Laker Airways and in 1979 Tait moved with the company to Miami, as Vice President, Marketing for the fast-growing carrier’s low cost trans-Atlantic service, “SkyTrain”.</p>
<p>Following the untimely demise of Laker Airways in 1982, Tait joined AM&amp;M, a Miami-based aviation consulting firm, and it was here that he was asked to write the initial business plan for a start-up airline, which would eventually become Virgin Atlantic Airways. In 1984, Tait moved to New York City to become the fledgling airline’s first US employee reporting directly to Chairman Richard Branson. Tait built and led all the airline&#8217;s North American operations including sales, marketing, operations, customer service, finance, IT and HR as Executive Director and Executive Vice President North America from 1984–2002.</p>
<p>On May 1, 2001 at Buckingham Palace, David’s achievements were recognized when he was awarded an OBE (Officer of the Order of The British Empire) by Queen Elizabeth II for “services to British aviation in the United States”.</p>
<p>Tait left Virgin Atlantic in 2002 and served as Chief Executive Officer for Avocet Aircraft and Spitfire Aviation Partners before returning to Canada to take the position of Senior Vice President, Customer Service, for Air Canada in Montreal. Tait formed CONSULTAIT in 2007, a firm focusing on consulting in brand-building, integrated marketing and customer service for a wide variety of international clients in both aviation and other service-related industries.</p>

<p>David helped write the business plan with Richard Branson for what became Virgin Atlantic Airways and in 1984 he became the fledgling airline’s very first employee. As an executive director and Executive Vice President (based in New York City) David created, grew and led the airline’s US business until 2002. David is credited as being one of the key figures in driving the innovative services and smart edgy marketing which would become the signature of the Virgin brand worldwide.</p>
<p>In 2001 David was awarded an OBE by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace, ”in recognition of his services to British aviation in North America”.</p>
<p>Since leaving Virgin Atlantic David has served as CEO of Avocet Aircraft and Spitfire Aviation as well as running CONSULTAIT, his own consulting firm advising aviation and aerospace clients. He is a published writer and columnist on related subjects, and still works closely with the Virgin Group on a variety of fronts. David is also on the Board of Advisors of Morgan Aircraft, who he introduced to Mineseeker last year, and serves as Chairman of The New Earth Institute, a Vancouver-based non-profit educational company.</p>
<p>Mike Kendrick, CEO of NHSH stated, “David and I go back a long way and we are delighted that he has agreed to serve on the board.  A highly-regarded executive and entrepreneur, David brings to Mineseeker a deep understanding of international aviation, joint venture companies and senior level negotiations with multinational business.</p>
<p>” Mike and I have worked together on numerous innovative projects at Virgin, but none as exciting or meaningful as his present endeavour with Mineseeker.  I closely followed the conception and launch of the Mineseeker Foundation and the recent launch of the ‘for profit’ Mineseeker Operations. I totally endorse the doctrine of ‘compassionate capitalism’ that is at its core and am hugely excited and honoured to have been invited to join the fray,” commented Tait.</p>
<p>A native of Glasgow Scotland, who has resided in Canada and the USA for the last 35 years, David has triple citizenship &#8211; UK, Canadian and US – and lives with his wife (and three of his five children) just outside New York in Connecticut.</p>
<p>Mineseeker Operations Overseas Ltd is the principal subsidiary of NHS Health Solutions, Inc. (Pinksheets: NHSH.PK), utilizing a unique multi-spectral imaging radar system in order to provide a highly cost effective and safe solution to mapping minefields, thus saving lives and limbs and allowing the rapid economic restoration of valuable land for farming, infrastructure, and commercial development.</p>

<p>NHS Health Solutions, Inc. (hereby referred to as &#8220;Corporation&#8221;) would like to notify its shareholders that the state of incorporation has been changed from Nevada to Florida.  <span id="more-671"></span>The Articles of Conversion for the Corporation were sent to the state of Nevada at the end of February 2012, and were accepted for filing by the state on March 6, 2012.  Essentially, the ability of the Florida Secretary of State&#8217;s website to provide a higher level of transparency to any and all stakeholders, by actually displaying any documents or filings posted, coupled with the geographical location of the Corporations Directors, Officers, and counsel, made this a sensible and easy corporate transition.</p>
<p>The Corporation is also pleased to announce an official change to its share structure; the authorized share count has been lowered to 500,000,000, from a previous total of 750,000,000.  This consolidation of the share structure was unanimously agreed to by the Board of Directors.</p>
<p>The Directors are now working with the corporate attorney to bring all the company filings up to date as soon as possible and will post further updates as progress towards this goal is achieved.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mineseeker’s Operations Director, Richard Trueman, has successfully completed the helicopter training that he began in February.  Richard renewed the Eurocopter Ec135 type rating and then went on to pass the Single-Pilot Multi-Engine instrument rating also on the Ec135; both qualifications are now reflected on his Airline Transport Pilots License for helicopters. <span id="more-662"></span>Richard said, “with my license now revalidated and ready for use, I am now fully qualified to undertake VFR and IFR operations in both open and controlled airspace and comply with  the European air laws on flight crew licensing coming in to force in April this year”</p>
<p>“My next project will be to undertake unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) operations to get some real hands on experience of flying unmanned platforms with sensor mounted equipment including high definition and infra-red cameras”, he added.</p>
<div id="attachment_663" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 243px"><a href="http://www.mineseeker.com/wp-content/uploads/DT-135.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-663" title="Richard Trueman in an Ec135" src="http://www.mineseeker.com/wp-content/uploads/DT-135.jpg" alt="" width="233" height="254" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Richard Trueman in an Ec135</p></div>
<p>Richard has already been trained in the use of UAV ground control stations and this is the next step in being able to operate UAVs for aerial survey and mapping operations.  This experience will underpin Mineseeker’s ability to deploy UAVs for minefield mapping and assist with technical input in relation to the Morgan Aircraft development announced in January this year.</p>
