The headline pretty much says it all. Though HPQ has stated the
discussions are preliminary, this doesn’t hide the fact that HPQ has
moved incredibly fast from deciding to use its world-changing silicon
manufacturing process to enter the battery market.
It was only back on August 19th when Company CEO, Bernard Tourillon,
stated HPQ would “start meeting with end users” but few would have
expected NDA based discussions with a Li-ion battery manufacturer so
soon. Ironically, Tourillon says he expected something like this
“sooner” … now that is confidence.
In a small cap market full of companies claiming the holy grail of
supplying the battery market, it wasn’t hard to understand why investors
may have dismissed the Company’s OCT 31 statement that “HPQ fully
intends to use its Gen3 to produce and market silicon materials for
batteries”.
With discussions under NDA now started with a battery manufacturer,
HPQ has now set itself far apart from the pack and has earned the right
to be taken very seriously. Investors who have been waiting for ANY
company to move from theoretical to the actual boardroom, HPQ offers a
very compelling story.

When the Wall Street Journal calls your Gold Report “The Gold Standard Of Gold Research”, it is safe to say you are a global influencer and expert in all things gold.
This is Ronnie Stoeferle, whose “In Gold We Trust” report has also been downloaded 1.8 million times in English, German and Mandarin in case anyone had any doubt as to his expertise.
Today, Ronnie became the founding member of the Affinity Metals (AFF:TSXV) Advisory Board, which implies that we can expect others to be appointed as well. Why would Ronnie join a company with a market cap under $5,000,000? You’ll have to watch the interview to find out … but here are a couple of hints:
1. Affinity Metals flagship project, the Regal, has reported HISTORICAL reserves of 590,703 tonnes grading 71.6 grams per tonne silver, 2.66 per cent lead, 1.26 per cent zinc, 1.1 per cent copper, 0.13 per cent tin and 0.015 per cent tungsten. These were prepated prior to 43-101 standards and should not be relied upon until they are brought into compliance with 43-101 standards.
2. A Technical Report, which was prepared in 1971 using a silver price of $1.75 per troy ounce, makes a positive recommendation for production, including the establishment of a 500 ton per day concentrator with a 400 ton per day silver, lead and zinc circuit and a 100 ton per day tin, tungsten and copper circuit.
These are just 2 factors that led Ronnie to declare that Affnity Metals is “one of the largest investments in my private portfolio”.
Grab your favourite beverage, kick back and watch this great interview with both Ronnie and Affinity CEO, Rob Edwards.

HPQ Silicon makes its strongest case ever for the lead it has taken in the commercialization of its’
Solar grade silicon;
Silicon wafers for Li-ion batteries
High purity silicon for high value niche applications;
Metallurgical grade silicon at prices the industry has never seen before;
More than just lip service that we have typically come to expect from 98% of small cap companies, the Company’s pilot plant is about to go live and produce test samples of silicon wafers for batteries and is supported by not 1 but 2 (TWO) world class technology partners that validate both the HPQ process and commercialization plan.
This is a powerful presentation that is worthy of your time to watch and learn about the rise of HPQ Silicon.

In less than 18 months, Francis Dube and his team took over management of ZEN Graphene Solutions (ZEN:TSXV) and accelerated it from stuck in the mud to on the brink of commercializing graphene for real world applications. That’s right. ZEN believes it will begin selling small quantities but extremely high priced graphene to Q1 2020, including Graphene Quantum Dots that sell for outrageous $$ / gram … PER GRAM … let alone Kilograms.
How much? Watch the interview where you will also hear about the company’s new graphene R&D + small-scale graphene processing and production facility in Guelph, Ontario. Moreover, you’ll hear about the Company’s success in producing graphene oxide while reducing chemical consumption by up to 100X compared to current methods, as well as, reducing the price of production.
If you’ve been waiting years for graphene production to become a reality … who hasn’t … your wait looks like it’s about to come to end and the good times are about to begin.
Grab your favourite beverage, watch this powerful interview and then spread the word.

Affinity Metals controls the Regal Property, an incredible
asset in BC that has a history of Pollymetallic production & hosts several
past producing small-scale historic mines.
Most people are unaware of but are about to find about.
A complete feasibility review of the Regal Silver Mine,
including a reserve report, mine plan, processing recommendations and mill plan
was developed in 1971 to put Regal into production at $1.75 OZ Silver on a
reserve of 590,000tonnes. grading 71.6 grams per tonne silver, 2.66 per cent
lead, 1.26 per cent zinc, 1.1 per cent copper, … needs to be updated with current
43-101 so investors should not be relying on these figures until then.
Past producing mines on property may be potential indicators of a major mineralized system underneath the property.

When the lithium craze hit the markets a few years back, dozens of companies dreamed of cashing in on the impending battery craze for electric vehicles.
While 99% of companies focused on lithium or graphite, HPQ focused on creating the world’s cheapest and lowest emission Silicon for multiple applications, including solar.
Along the way, HPQ picked up 2 world class technology partners and the Quebec government as an investor.
Today, the company is on the verge of producing Silicon from its 50 ton pilot plant for multiple applications.
Serendipitously, experts now agree that Silicon is the superior material for electric battery anodes versus graphite.
If
that wasn’t enough, the Company’s solar partner happens to hold the
world wide patent on manufacturing porus silicon wafers, which is
exactly what is needed for battery anodes.
Today, while most other companies working on Li-Ion Silicon
are still stuck in R&D, HPQ has rocketed ahead to its
commercialization stage and has the electric vehicle battery market
watching with great anticipation.
Watch this
incredible video with HPQ Silicon CEO, Bernard Tourillon, who has
brilliantly architected the company’s development from concept to
commercialization.

At 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.
CBD extraction has been a key element of the company’s vertical integration. Producing its’ own CBD products for its own patients just makes sense. Up until a couple of days ago, it was a sound strategy that needed to be executed. As of yesterday, execution arrived thanks to a JV with extraction experts Heritage Cannabis that will light up the Company’s 5,000 sq ft facility in Oregon. 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 and the facility isn’t expected to begin producing for another 3-4 months. 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.
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.
Grab your favourite beverage and settle in to watch what may be your next great small cap investment.

HPQ Silicon (HPQ:TSXV)
has switched gears in the last 2 weeks, with “commercialization” of
their revolutionary silicon manufacturing technology taking center
stage.On August 19th, CEO Bernard Tourillon stated:
“We are ready to start commercializing
our PUREVAP™ QRR technology. We are aiming to completely revolutionize
the economics of the $24B industry and create significant cash flow.In the coming months we will be meeting with end users…”
Then
on September 4th, HPQ announced a 2nd patent filing, which can be
inferred as very high confidence in the commercialization of the
technology. In fact, the CEO of their technology partner, PyroGenesis
Canada, stated as follows:
” “At
PyroGenesis we have developed an approach to protecting Intellectual
Property, and we have the patent portfolio to prove it. We only engage
in patent applications where we feel (i) that we will prevail with an
award and (ii) that there is commercial application to protect.â€
The
winds at HPQ Silicon have definitely shifted in the past 2 weeks.
After 3 years of developing a new process for manufacturing silicon
metal that is far cheaper and cuts green house gas emissions by as much
as 90%, it appears HPQ and their world class partners – Apollon Solar
and PyroGenesis – are making serious preparations to come to market.
