Emtec Inc. Sells Geothermal Rights

Increased Stockholder's Equity By $290,000


TRENTON, N.J., March 24, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Emtec Inc. (OTCBB:ETEC) today announced that it has sold it's 5.49 percent working interest in the Roosevelt Hot Spring geothermal power unit -- as well as some other minor oil and gas rights -- to Energy Minerals Inc., a Nevada corporation, for $150,000 in cash. The company expects this sale will result in a one-time gain on the sale of the geothermal investment of approximately $290,000 to be recorded in the quarter ending March 31, 2005.

"We have been working for some time to sell this non-core asset and are pleased to have reached agreement with Energy Minerals," said John Howlett, Emtec CEO. "These geothermal assets have comprised a relatively small amount of our overall business. This sale will permit us to focus 100 percent of our energies on our information technology business."
