TORONTO,
Feb. 29, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - Gentor
Resources Inc. ("Gentor" or the "Company") (TSXV: GNT) (OTCQB:
GNTOF) announces that, further to its January 10, 2012 and January 30, 2012 press releases, it has completed
its corporate reorganization (the "Corporate Reorganization"), as a
result of which Gentor's corporate jurisdiction has now been moved
from Florida to the Cayman Islands. The Corporate
Reorganization was effected by a two-step process involving a
merger of Gentor Resources, Inc. (the Florida company) with and into its
wholly-owned Wyoming subsidiary,
followed by a continuation of the surviving company into the
Cayman Islands. Shareholders
approved the Corporate Reorganization at the special meeting of
shareholders held on February 24,
2012.
Gentor believes that the change in its corporate
jurisdiction to the Cayman Islands
will expose the Company to business and financial advantages that
may not otherwise be as accessible to the Company. In
particular, the Corporate Reorganization is expected to result in
simplification of the Company's compliance with regulatory
requirements and an enhanced ability to raise capital in Canadian,
U.S. and international markets.

with current focus in the Sultanate of Oman. In Oman, Gentor is partnered with Al Fairuz
