This is where I make my money. I have shared my experience.. Let's see the bid rise.. Is there a news leak,

[bobdown2] 24/11/2022 16:19

4.50 on the offer.

I refuse to post on the other thread because there is no point in speaking to someone so objectively biased and closed as RyanRhys.

But briefly, to note in response to the comment about scc55 and silicon batteries:

1. Silicon on its own is not a good product for an EV battery:

"Silicon can store 10 times more energy than graphite but most attempts to include more silicon in the anode faced challenges of silicon expansion and breakage. “This limited the amount used to extremely small percentages and only modest performance improvements,” OneD said."



"there are some challenges standing in the way of the commercialization of these anodes, namely the fact that silicon’s large volume change and high reactivity can cause the battery to break, significant research efforts are underway to overcome these. There are also research teams investigating the possibility of inserting small amounts of silicon into graphite anodes to provide a slight performance boost, but information surrounding these is scarce."



2. This is presumably why Group14 states "Fully compatible with graphite, SCC55™ boosts energy density by 30% over 1000 cycles even with a 20% blend".

I.e. a 20% blend is what they are suggesting, even if they claim it can be higher with the end user choosing the blend up to 100%. In short, the 20% they suggest will still mean 80% graphite.

Bear in mind that most EV batteries are expected to do 1500 - 2000 cycles, not the 1000 cycles that they use in their statistic above, which would only gives data for 6-8 years usage.

And their benchmark data chart on this webpage is for just 500 cycles, which is really low:



3. In summary, silicon may well be blended into the anode but I think we are a long way of it replacing graphite wholesale.

I checked out albas Limerick zinc. It is very close to glencores Irish interest. A check of glencore mining activities does not show any mining in Greenland. What's the point?. Greenland seems a bit of a Wild West situation. Hence grocs graphite interests increasingly gaining in size and yesterdays mention of partner talks. The amount of graphite proved so far must have caught the attention of those that do not have an interest in Greenland. A partnership with Groc would be an entrance to graphite,ilminite, iron ore and the named mixed minerals that include copper and gold.
You can see why British companies are bought out. The aim market has put no price at all on graphite and ilminite deposits that the big boys will be watching. It's a good job Alba have 54% because Groc could already have disappeared with a disgustingly cheap bid.

Groc -

£25k sells

£9k buys

The market ignored todays news report didn't it!? Must be because no car manufacturer met with your lying CEO!?

[ryanrhys1] 23/11/2022 15:25

You simply don't do any research.... The graphite at that mine is a pitiful amount, Greenland ranks so low on reserves there's another reason why no one is intrested.

Even America and Canada have more and although lower grade it's not hard to refine. That must be why Biden started looking at Graphite in America and not Greenland, that must be why Elon has had meetings with a mine in Canada and that must be why you get zilcho interest from any market and had to lie saying you were in meetings with car manufacturers!?

You simply don't research anything just repeat what the company instruct you too.

Just because Greenland has a small tiny amount of graphite dosent mean the world suddenly needs it when there's bigger more plentiful supplies elsewhere.

Also no one is desperate for graphite, the amount of new mines opened and opening have flooded the market for the next few years,!?

When you tell everyone to DYOR (Do Your Own Research) but you do no none makes you the fool you are!? Where does Greenland rank in the world reserves of graphite by country!?

You moron!?

14.11.2022 was the results of four of nineteen graphite hole tests. The other fifteen will be released by mid December.
Als a mention. The graphite is open to the south, west and north for further potential. Looks like there is plenty of graphite to mine once all the boxes are ticked but still more unexplored graphite. It is looking excellant.

[ryanrhys1] 23/11/2022 12:00

£15k sells £9k buys ... Everyone is selling and this news was simply unsubstantiated rubbish!?

[bobdown2] 23/11/2022 10:55

The buy showing. 10k @ 4.00. Buys are showing. The offer should rise shortly. And not before time.!!

[bobdown2] 23/11/2022 10:50

Can only afford a 10k amount.. I will buy it shortly.

[bobdown2] 23/11/2022 10:32

Like I said... A 250k buy showing. You have to be a bigger investor to get the most out of the market. But it does highlight how good today's news is.

Baker783 don't worry about getting filtered, all it involves is calling him a moron every now and then when he keeps replying even though your apparently filtered!?
