Operations Update
GMG is focused on delivering its Gen 2.0 Graphene Production Project (the "Gen 2.0 Project"
Once the Gen 2.0 Project is commissioned and operating, GMG plans to replicate and establish other production plants around the world to enable scaled production for potential sales, diversify and lower production risks, and reduce operating costs by locating the plant in countries with lower operating costs, including low cost natural gas — one of GMG's key production input costs.
Currently, GMG is planning three potential expansion projects — two in North America (potentially one in US and one in Canada) in addition to an expansion production project in Australia (located on the expansion lease outlined in this release). GMG proposes to mature these projects and expand production in line with sales for all of its products.
The expansion program for GMG includes the following 5 production plants:
Graphene Production (from natural gas)
Coating Blend Plant (for the graphene coating THERMAL-XR®)
Lubricant Blend Plant (for the graphene lubricant additive G® LUBRICANT)
Graphene Slurry Plant (for the SUPA G Lithium-Ion Battery Additive)
Battery Assembly Plant (for the Graphene Aluminium Ion Battery)
