Executive Summary Graphite – Dominate position in Sri Lanka

http://www.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20160419/pdf/436lspskfrksyv.pdf


Sri Lankan Vein Graphite


Two granted Mining Licences and 39,500 ha of Exploration Permits covering known vein graphite deposits


Highest grade graphite in the world (~90 - 99%) contrasting with typical 10% grades of flake deposits


Vein graphite sells at a premium price over ordinary flake graphite


No risk of market oversupply


Ideally suited to high growth premium value applications such as Lithium Ion Batteries used in Electric Vehicles (Evs) and green energy storage


Currently developing the first two mine shafts to produce DSO (direct shipping ore)


Recently, a large high grade intersection of 1.72m could be a company maker Graphene – lowest production costs


Potential supplier of lowest cost graphene in the world


High conversion rate of graphite to graphene > 80%


Quality and process design confirmed by University of Adelaide


Large platelet size graphene averaging 30-40 microns, up to 100 microns


25-50 times uplift in value on conversion of graphite to graphene, depending upon
pricing

Potential to be the key supplier of low cost graphene to world market


Low cost base will be instrumental to the acceleration of graphene usage
in industry


Graphene


Further to the highly successful Graphene characterisation test work completed FGR is undertaking optimisation study to establish the best commercial parameters for production


Testing at University of Adelaide continue to demonstrate excellent results for high quality graphene production


Tests performed produced high quality single and multi-layer graphene sheets showing low defects, which are confirmed by the Raman characterisation


The quality of the graphene exfoliated from FGR’s graphite is comparable with the
quality of graphene prepared by synthetic routes


FGR’s graphite has very high crystalline carbon content


Processes confirms ability for fast, high quality, scalable extraction of graphene


In collaboration and testing with several potential industrial graphene users

I like the maths of FGR and I like its FA...

That being said I do have a gut feeling. Just think we are watching the end of one age and the start of another.

The history of MATERIALS is the history of CIVILIZATION.

I think the market is waiting with held breath right now and for me it feels like the quiet before the storm.

IT is fantastic to be back here in Australia and I wanted to share my opinions this morning because really I have a strong feeling right now about just how much of a change is going on and most of us Aussies seem alseep. I was thinking of writing an Article for the press about the history of materials and how Australia is about to lead the way.

I have for a long time deduced FGR was going to get allot of new partners and friends and I wonder what is coming.

Gut feelings don't matter at all of course but still I think you will agree these confluence of factors and givens are culminating logically.
