ASX Company Looks to Turn Graphene into a Commercial Reality
Nearly all graphite exploration companies are focusing on flake graphite and their concentration is on “large flake size”. There is, however, another potentially more lucrative, and definitely speedier path to market.
One ASX company has developed a neat way to commercialise high-grade vein graphite that will be more applicable in industrial manufacturing uses, than as a wonder material to be used in glitzy gadgets or electric cars.
While some are off on a quest for market jam, this company has chosen to go for the bread and butter.
This ASX company is aiming to develop an underground mining operation in Sri Lanka, to extract high grade, crystalline vein graphite, which is unique to the country. It then ships that graphite to Perth, where it transforms the material into graphene.
While it continues to develop its 100% owned mines, its decided to accelerate graphene production, and has been able to source graphite from a third party producer.
Interestingly it has just shipped its first 20 tonne container of high grade graphite from Sri Lanka to Perth via a third party.
This is significant as it not only shows the company can move its product out of the region, but it will enable the company to more easily negotiate with buyers.
The great news for shareholders is that this thread-through-needle explorer has earmarked commercial sales of both its high-grade natural graphite and its final derivative, graphene — as early as 2017.
The date is speculative and should only be considered as one element in your investment decision in this company. If considering this company for your portfolio, seek professional financial advice.
The company has designed an industrial appliance, dubbed the Graphene Cell that can produce graphene in bulk quantities to the tune of 5 tonnes per year:

Just a smattering of graphene added to existing manufacturing processes can deliver significant improvements in build quality, durability and conductivity for many products including concrete, drilling fluids, lubricants, oils, tyres and even sensors that rely on high accuracy.
That graphene production cell has now been successfully commissioned:

Being the space-age material that it is, graphene can deliver sharp improvements in many industries and there are new applications being introduced on a regular basis.

Now could be the time to find a graphite stallion with some strong heels, and harness it with a commercial saddle just in time for the uplift in graphene usage.
Graphene remains an expensive material which is preventing many manufacturers from utilising it to the full extent in fear of seeing their input costs inflate…
…but with this company’s unique angle of putting graphene on the store shelf, we think its vertically integrated graphene masterplan can kick-off early graphene sales in Australia and beyond.
This graphite-graphene combo company has positioned itself to exploit the entire value chain from graphite all the way through to advanced compounds made from graphene.
To do this successfully, this company plans to utilise efficient downstream processing to upgrade the commercial value of its ore.
Importantly, the company is being aided by Adelaide University, whose collaborative test work chas confirmed the viability of the process.
The Project this company is working on ticks all the right boxes in terms of geology, scale, management and commodity.
This company’s overarching plan is to be the first company to market a 5 tonne per year graphene-producing appliance that allows anyone to JIT (just-in-time)-process this company’s graphitic ore into high-grade, high value graphene.
While this company’s baseline is a profitable graphite mining operation, its upside and blue sky is the development of markets in the Graphene space with the advantage of the lowest cost, bulk scale quality Graphene.
This company does not want to be limited to a mining company perspective. What it wants is to be seen as the intelligent graphite miner opening up new growth curves with advanced materials.
This company has plotted a course to establish a profitable graphite mining operation as just a kick-starter to enable its overarching strategy: utilising first-mover advantage to develop one of the world’s only fully-integrated paddock-to-plate graphite miners with a graphene-tech trump card.
