A Historic Moment and World First in Recycling Technology - 21st of October 2009 FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Oct. 21

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Oct. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Magnum D'Or Resources, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MDOR), a next generation rubber recycling Solutions Company, announced today the Magnum SRI custom compound light truck tires were installed onto the pre-specified truck and driven to the Rubber Research Institute of the Malaysian Rubber Board's Tire Lab (RRI) where the "On Road" validation and testing of the tires will be carried out as per their protocol. No standard protocol currently exists to specifically deal with Magnum SRI Tires. At 14% recycled content, this is nearly 6 fold what exists today in terms of surface treated crumb in tires, whether truck or automotive. The performance specifications achieved thus far by the Magnum SRI custom compound tires clearly equal the original control specimen and is being treated as an OEM tire and tested with the same procedure(s).

We were honoured by the interest shown by the Director of the Research Facility Dr. Alias Othman and the Head of the Advance Technology Unit. Both individuals were present to witness the historic event where substantial recycled content was incorporated into a premium production tire for the very first time without any loss in properties while affording a reduction in raw material cost in-between 6% to 8% to the manufacturer.

The two Magnum SRI Tires and two control tires were thoroughly marked and measured prior to the truck being driven off on its maiden 800km round trip journey. The trip will include travel north to collect the latest production of Magnum SRI custom tires for further testing. The truck is equipped with a black box packed with monitoring hardware and tracking systems to check all aspects of the vehicles operating conditions to be included as part of the evaluation. This will prove to be the crown jewel of the Magnum SRI venture by documenting the results showing that the performance exceeds all expectations, and byre-writing the rules about what can and cannot be done in the recycling industry.

Particularly noteworthy is the fact that the Magnum SRI Compound Test Tire is a composite compound using the OEM manufacturers Light Truck compound formula with a substitution of 20% of Magnum SRI custom Compound (14% recycled rubber content). In this case it means that tread compound has 14% of recycled content and the sidewall of the tire has a little more than 14% recycled content. Virgin compound modified to allow for customization added to the activated compound will make the final custom compound proportion 20%. There is truly significant in that the Magnum SRI activated compound was not only incorporated into the tread compound but it was also introduced into the sidewall compound of these 'Next Generation' Magnum SRI Truck Tires
