DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES
____________________________

On September 28, 2007, China GengSheng Minerals, Inc. (the "Company") filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-142922) (the "Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"), was declared effective on October 15, 2007. The Registration Statement registered the resale from time to time, of 7,437,565 shares (the "Shares") of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The Shares were registered to permit resales of such Shares by the selling stockholders, as named in the Registration Statement, who acquired the Shares in connection with the Company’s April 2007 private placement.

In accordance with the undertaking of the Company contained in the Registration Statement pursuant to Item 512 of Regulation S-K, the Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to deregister all of the Shares that were previously registered under the Registration Statement, but remain unsold as of the date hereof. The Company is seeking to deregister all Shares that remain unsold under the Registration Statement, as of the date hereof, because its obligation to keep the Registration Statement effective pursuant to the terms of its registration rights agreement with the selling stockholders has terminated. The selling stockholders are now eligible to sell the Shares pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, without regard to volume limitations.

The Registration Statement is hereby amended to reflect the deregistration of such Shares.
