Global is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Letter of Intent to acquire PGM Corporation, an Oklahoma corporation, in a stock for stock transaction.  PGM Corporation was founded by Russell Twiford, its President, and is the owner of the proprietary process utilized by Global to extract gold and platinum.
