This decade began with incredible hope for graphene as the miracle material that would change everything.
By 2015, hope gave way to indifference as graphene failed to live up to the smallest of expectations.
With the next decade just 15 days away, ZEN Graphene Solutions has reignited the great graphene hope with a string of great successes in 2019 that put commercialization within sight.
If you walked away from graphene years ago, you now owe it to yourself to watch this interview with ZEN CEO Francis Dube and find out why 2020 could mark the start of the graphene decade.

Until now, investor participation in Artificial Intelligence has been the domain of mega companies and those funded by Silicon Valley. Small cap investors can finally consider participating in the great future of A.I. through Datametrex AI (DM: TSXV) (Soon To Be Nexaology) who just reported the following:
Q3 Revenues Of $1.6 million, an increase of 186%
9 Mont Revenues Of $2.56M an increase of 37%
A Repeat $1M Contract With A Division Of Korean Giant LOTTE Group
$954,000 Contract With Canadian Department of Defence To Fight Social Media Election Meddling
Participation In NATO Research Task Group On Social Media Threat Detection
When a small cap A.I. company is successfully deploying at the
highest levels of global commerce and military, it is a strong sign of
the Company’s capabilities that behooves investors to look deeper.
That deep dive can begin with our joint interview of Datametrex CEO,
Marshall Gunter and President, Jeff Stevens in which we look not only
into the past recent success but also into what the future holds in
terms of both growth and competition.

There is no shortage of small cap companies claiming they want to
supply materials to the Lithium-Ion battery market …. but none of them
have:
The Silicon “Holy Grail”;
A fully functioning Pilot Plant coming online in Q1 2020;
Are in NDA discussions with a battery manufacturer;
Have not one but TWO world class technology partners
Have not one but THREE products to address different battery needs
HPQ Silicon (HPQ:TSXV) has all of these going in its favour and wasn’t afraid to say so in its latest press release. In fact, HPQ’s CEO stated the following outright: Â
“We now have even greater confidence in our joint ability to deliver the critical Silicon material required by the surging Li-ion battery market in 2020 and beyond.†Â
With the Company’s Pilot Plant already financed thanks to significant investments from both the Quebec government and technology partner, PyroGenesis, HPQ’s path in 2020 is set and so far ahead of everyone else that it warrants taking them very seriously. Â

“These results signal the beginning of the long-awaited breakout that we have been anticipating…’ These are the words of PyroGenesis CEO, Peter Pascali, and they are backed up by Q3 results that included a 91% increases in revenue and a 492% increase in signed contracts that are now in backlog to the tune of $29.5M, thanks to a monster contract win in October.
If that wasn’t enough, after already having sold two plasma torch based systems to the US Navy for installation on two aircraft carries, the Company has already been advised by the US Navy that 2 more orders are coming for two more aircraft carriers to the tune of $13.5M.
Even the Head of TSX Venture noticed the results on Linkedin recently:

While Nanoscale Structure Silicon Powders improve Li-ion battery
performance, high performance Silicon anodes are not presently
commercially feasible due to high manufacturing costs. Specifically,
two major issues have been identified as major impediments to commercial
feasibility;
1. The cost of the high purity Silicon feed material needed
2. The cost of transforming Silicon into Nanoscale Structure Silicon Powders for Li-ion batteries
HPQ Silicon and Pyrogenesis might have the solution…
Combining the HPQ PUREVAP™Quartz Reduction Reactor
technology with PyroGenesis Plasma Atomization knowhow to manufacture
Nanoscale Structure Silicon powders, could potentially resolve these 2
issues and lead the way to full commercialization of Nanoscale Structure
Silicon Powders. If successful, that should subsequently lead to their
wide scale adoption in the battery space.
If this occurs it would go without saying, HPQ and PyroGenesis would be well positioned to assume a market leading role.

There is a lot we could say about American Creek’s Treaty Creek Project … But we’ll let the words of 4 much smarter and wealthier people do all the talking:
Walter Storm, CEO Tudor Gold (JV Partner; Funded Startup Of Osisko Mining Until Sold For $4.5 Billion)
“The Goldstorm (System On Treaty Creek) now has the attention of several major industry players and we expect that future results will continue to impress as we further define this potential world-class deposit“.”
Eric Sprott, Billionaire Investor and 2X PP Investor In American Creek Resources
“What we’re shooting for is to define a 10 or 20-million-ounce discovery“
Ken Konkin , Tudor Gold Exploration Manager (Credited With Discovering Brucejack Mine Just South Of Treaty Creek)
“The
Goldstorm System shows no signs of weakening to the northeast and
several more drill holes will be needed to find the length and depth of
this huge gold system.“ “2020 is going to be a breakout year.” Darren Blaney, President & CEO American Creek Resources
“Ken Konkin, the geologist credited for the discovery and development of Pretium’s neighbouring Brucejack Mine is advancing the Goldstorm zone to potentially becoming a world-class deposit with far better logistics than the neighbouring KSM deposits.”
“Clearly, we have a massive, world-class gold system that still shows no signs of weakening to the northeast nor at depth.”
To find out why world renowned gold mine finders are so bullish on Treaty Creek, grab your favourite beverage, grab a seat and watch this interview with American Creek Resources.

If you are a small cap CEO, Director or Investor Relations Officer in North America, my 23 minute interview with James Black of the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) is the most important podcast you will listen to in 2019. Not because I am the guest but because of what I have to say.
Why does what I say matter? AGORACOM surpassed 600 million page views this year, we’re averaging over 4.5M views per month on Twitter and we’ve served over 300 clients. As such, the powerful information in this podcast comes from a deep understanding of both social media, why small cap companies are failing at it and what the serious implications are of that failure.
Make no mistake about it, this isn’t some generic social media discussion. James and I go deep and I hit hard because that is what good friends do. I’m sounding the alarm because of the massive implications if I don’t.
The good news is that, if you are not an AGORACOM client, you can turn this ship around but you have to do it now and that can only be done by understanding why small caps are failing today.
I suggest that your entire management team listens to it and discusses it. Then let’s have a call to discuss what can be done.
The beauty of this audio format is you can listen to it at work or in your car / subway to and from work. I’ve done the hard work presenting this powerful information, all you have to do is press play.
Thank-you and I look forward to discussing this with you and potentially working together in 2020. Our cashless and fully compliant shares for services program should make the decision an easy one.

Empower Clinics JV Could Generate $US 30,000,000 In Annual Revenue From CBD Extraction … But It Doesn’t End There
With 165,000 patients, Empower Clinics (CBDT:CSE) (EPWCF:OTCQB) has a database that almost every medical cannabis and CBD company would kill for. Add in the fact it is now on a ~ $USD 4,000,000 annualized revenue run rate for 2019 and it becomes the kind of company small cap investors have been dying to find as they watch pretender companies melt away.
But it doesn’t end there.
The Company’s latest Q3 financials show that Empower is in full growth mode, with substantial increases in revenue and patient visits, as well as, big reductions in expenses. Moreover, Company CEO Steven McAuley says growth will continue full steam ahead in Q4, Q1 and beyond.
But it doesn’t end there.Â
CBD extraction has been a key element of the company’s vertical integration. Producing its’ own hemp-derived CBD products for its own massive patient list just makes sense. However, thanks to an LOI (moving towards definitive agreement) to JV with extraction experts Heritage Cannabis, the Company’s 5,000 sq ft facility in Oregon is also planning to serve big brand 3rd party partners in the USA . Empower brings the infrastructure, Heritage brings the expertise and balance sheet. The result is a match made in shareholder heaven with initial annual capacity of 6,000 Kg at ~ $US 5,000 per Kg, which adds up to $US 30,000,000 in potential revenue.
We emphasize potential  because nobody has started selling anything yet but the facility is expected to begin producing soon. However, with a built in patient database and talks already having commenced for white label products, Empower is on its way. Moreover, “potential” cuts both ways, with capacity capable of increasing 2x – 3x without much trouble given the size of the facility. Â
Can Empower successfully execute its extraction plan? It’s a legitimate question, with a blow away answer.. The Company’s new CEO, Steven McAuley, who replaced the previous management team in January, is Six Sigma certified under the quality initiative of legendary GE chairman Jack Welch. We’ve never seen a Six Sigma certified CEO in the Canadian small cap markets. Never …. which also explains how McAuley has brought Empower to such heights in just 11 months.
The cannabis market is currently throwing away babies with the bathwater – but just as the dot-com crash brought us massive riches through Web 2.0 companies that were REAL, investors need to start looking for the REAL companies that will survive and thrive. With 165,000 patients, rapidly increasing revenues, a franchise plan to grow clinics across America and a vertical integration CBD extraction strategy to tie them all together, Empower Clinics may be such a company. Â
Grab your favourite beverage and settle in to watch what may be your next great small cap investment.

ZEN Graphene Solutions (ZEN:TSXV) and its partner “DLR” (The German Aerospace Center) reported more good news pertaining to their battery development program.
The results were very technical in nature but CEO Francis Dube sat down with AGORACOM to explain their meaning in layman’s terms, as well as, how good these results are relative to tests by other companies. Hint – they’re better by a wide margin.
The results were so good that DLR applied for and received federal funding to create a new Innovation Lab (the Center for Aerogels) to work with industrial partners on the development of Aerogels and other graphene-based products.
This is a significant interview and well worth the time to watch it.
