Lomiko Takes on Multi-Billion Dollar 3D Printing and Graphene Goliaths

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:17 AM on Monday, February 3rd, 2014

VANCOUVER, British Columbia,  Feb. 3, 2014 — If graphene isn’t in your investment  lexicon, adopt it now, because its growth includes all things electronic  and won’t wait for you to catch up.

Familiarizing yourself with the revolutionary properties of this  graphite derivative would likely give you a leg up when considering your   investment choices. Graphene can and will be found in our most valued possessions from cell phones, to potentially life changing technology  such as 3D printing and yes, even the electric battery in a Tesla  Roadster.

“Graphene is basically a one-atom thick layer of carbon. Under a  microscope, it looks like a honeycombed lattice—much like chicken wire,”   states A. Paul Gill, President and CEO of Lomiko Metals (TSX-V:LMR), a   Company that extracts high quality graphite from its Quatre Mille  property in Quebec. “The growth of graphene use in virtually every  electronic application will undoubtedly be a catalyst of change across  the board, both in R&D and production.”

Mr. Gill, more than just a mining executive, recognized another Company  engaged in the rapidly growing graphene marketplace; New York based,  Graphene Labs, a leading manufacturer and supplier to global R&D  markets. The Company also holds many graphene patents but of particular  importance is the patent to convert graphite to graphene recently  announced in an exclusive agreement between the two Companies.

Together the two Companies will capitalize on the secure supply of high  quality graphite provided by Lomiko, as well as the extensive customer  database and expertise in graphene materials of Graphene Labs. This  alliance is where the possibilities become almost limitless.

Graphene Labs holds patents on 3D printing technologies that could very  well change the way we all live and purchase products. 3D printing is  the process of creating a three-dimensional, solid object from a digital  file of virtually any shape, using an additive process. Eventually this  will allow you to print everything from a toothbrush to a carburetor  for your car, in your basement.

Lomiko is also not standing still. Gill states: ‘As exclusive supplier  of high purity, large flake crystalline graphite from our Quatre Milles  East Property in Quebec, we are rapidly expanding this relationship with  Graphene 3D Labs as part of our recently filed Public Offering and  concurrent Private Placement. Once completed, Lomiko should realize  approximately $4 million.’

Credit Suisse forecasts that global 3D printing market revenues will reach almost $12 billion by 2020; they came in just over $2 billion in 2012. That represents annual growth of 20-30%. The retail consumer/small  business market shows the largest growth potential with 100%+ year over  year growth in 2013.

Nasdaq listed CVD Equipment, which has a Market Capitalization of $ 81  million and a share price of over $ 13.00 USD joins 3D Systems Corp, XG  Sciences and other large companies vying for this new market.

Adding graphene to polymers which are conventionally used in 3D  printing enhances the properties of the polymer in many different ways; it improves the mechanical strength as well as its electrical and  thermal conductivity. The method described in the provisional patent  application allows consumers to use the polymer, infused with graphene, together with conventional polymers in the same printing process,  thereby fabricating functional electronic devices.

China supplies 70% of the world graphite market, made up of 60%  amorphous and 40% flake. Demand has increased roughly 5% in the last 10 years to about $12 billion in 2011. There are 15 grams of graphite in a   smartphone battery. The Lithium Ion battery market is also a huge  consumer of graphite, needing 10-20 times the amount of a standard  lithium battery. There are 110 Kg of graphite in the battery of a Tesla Roadster. Lithium Ion batteries are projected to generate revenues of  $60 billion by 2020. I imagine you get the point.

While the applications in 3D printing are impressive, there are several  multi-billion dollar industries that will benefit from this alliance  including the medical appliance market, biotech and super capacitors.  RFID, smart packaging, ITO replacement, sensors, logic and memory are  also areas where graphene will likely see exceptional growth.

None of this works of course without graphite, particularly the high quality/purity flake graphite mined by Lomiko. Coupled with the  technical and market expertise and global top-tier customer base of  Graphene Labs, the Company’s revenue growth looks solid and sustainable.

Visit the Lomiko Booth and Learn About 3D Printing at the World Outlook Conference January 31 and February 1, 2014

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:15 AM on Monday, January 27th, 2014

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA and NEW YORK, NEW YORK–(Jan. 27, 2014) – LOMIKO METALS INC. (TSX VENTURE:LMR)(PINKSHEETS:LMRMF)(FRANKFURT:DH8B)(Europe: ISIN: CA54163Q1028, WKN: A0Q9W7,) (the “Company”) invite investors to learn about 3d printing at the World Outlook Conference. Lomiko partner Graphene 3D Lab has reached a significant milestone by filing a provisional patent application for the use of graphene-enhanced material, along with other materials, in 3D Printing. 3D printing or additive manufacturing is the process of creating a three-dimensional, solid object from a digital file, of virtually any shape. 3D printing is achieved using an additive process, whereas successive layers of material are laid down and create different shapes.

A few months ago, legendary analyst Jim Dines repeated his prediction that 3D printing is the next really big thing for investors. This year’s conference will give you a chance to see it in action. 3D printing expert John Biehler will demonstrate 3D printers that you can use in your own home to manufacture a variety of items. John will talk about the economic and social economics of this revolution, impacting not just traditional manufacturing and retailing but also regenerative medicine and industrial design.

“We are unequivocal in stating that investors must get familiar with these areas. The World Outlook Financial Conference is your chance to not only hear renowned analysts like Martin Armstrong, Mark Lebovit, Peter Grandich and to get Ryan Irvine’s 2014 World Outlook Small Cap Portfolio. It is also an opportunity to get familiar with the most important investment opportunities of the next generation”, Nina Parente, World Outlook Conference Organizer.

For registration details, please visit and register.

“Lomiko will provide graphite to Graphene 3D Lab as the exclusive supplier,” stated Paul Gill, CEO of Lomiko Metals. “Novel materials based on graphene open new markets for natural graphite; these new markets are expanding at an extraordinary rate. We are happy to participate in the development of this disruptive technology.”

On September 17, 2013, Lomiko and Graphene Labs reported that in the first step of the conversion process of graphite to graphene, natural graphite flakes were oxidized and turned into Graphene Oxide (“GO”) by a modified Hummer’s method. The properties of graphene, including its high conductivity, mechanical strength, and high specific surface area, make it an ideal electrode material.

Adding graphene to polymers which are conventionally used in 3D printing improves the properties of the polymer in many different ways; it improves the polymers mechanical strength as well as its electrical and thermal conductivity. The method described in the provisional patent application allows consumers to use the polymer, infused with graphene, together with conventional polymers in the same printing process, thereby fabricating functional electronic devices using 3D printing.

New developments in 3D printing will allow for the creation of products with different components, such as printed electronic circuits, sensors, or batteries to be manufactured. 3D Printing is a new and promising manufacturing technology that has garnered much interest, growing from uses in prototyping to everyday products. Today, it is a billion dollar industry growing at a brisk pace.

Lomiko, Graphene Labs and Stony Brook University Project Produces Graphene Supercapacitor Prototype *Sponsor*

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:08 AM on Wednesday, December 4th, 2013

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA and NEW YORK, NEW YORK–(Dec. 4, 2013) – LOMIKO METALS INC. (TSX VENTURE:LMR)(PINKSHEETS:LMRMF)(FRANKFURT:DH8B), (Europe: ISIN: CA54163Q1028, WKN: A0Q9W7,) (the “Company”) and Graphene Laboratories Inc. (“Graphene Labs”) announce they have reached a significant milestone by receiving a prototype graphene supercapacitor and a report from Stony Brook University and New York State’s Center for Advanced Sensor Technology (Sensor CAT). The prototype of the supercapacitor was made using graphene composite material prepared using a proprietary technology developed at Graphene Labs. The measured specific capacitance of the prototype was found to be around 500 Farad per gram of the material. This value is comparable with the best values reported in the literature for a supercapacitor of this type.

The exceptional quality of the Reduced Graphene Oxide (“RGO”) electrodes allows expansion of the operating voltage window up to 4 Volts. This allows the density of the energy stored in the supercapacitor to be increased. The device has shown this significant performance due to the high specific surface area as well as high electrical conductivity of the graphene produced from graphite material from the Quatre Milles Graphite Project in Quebec. The achievement paves the way for future commercialization efforts by the two companies under the goals of their Strategic Alliance Agreement (“SAA”). The next step is to have the results examined by interested companies within the industry.

Lomiko announced May 29, 2013 that the Research Foundation of Stony Brook University (“RF”), on behalf of the Advanced Energy Research and Technology Center (“AERTC”) and the Center for Advanced Sensor Technology (“Sensor CAT”), as well as Graphene Laboratories, Inc. (“Graphene Labs”) had agreed to establish a lasting cooperation aimed at investigating novel energy-based applications of graphene.

On September 17, 2013 Lomiko and Graphene Labs reported that in the first step of the conversion process, natural graphite flakes were oxidized and turned into Graphene Oxide (“GO”) by modified Hummer’s method. As the result, a stable aqueous dispersion with concentration of 40 grams per liter was obtained. Further, the GO was converted into RGO. The specific surface area of the RGO was found to be 500 square metres per gram and its electrical conductivity 4 (four) S per centimeter. These values are similar or exceeding the values for the RGO obtained from other samples of natural graphite taken for comparison and processed by the same procedure.

The properties of graphene, including its high conductivity, mechanical strength, and high specific surface area, make it an ideal electrode material for electrochemical devices used in clean energy applications such as supercapacitors and next-generation Li-ion batteries. Efficient energy storage is the cornerstone for a resilient and reliable energy transmission grid and a key element of the clean energy system.

Under the SAA signed February 12, 2013, Lomiko and Graphene Labs agreed to co-develop a vertically integrated supply chain that includes a secure supply of high-quality graphite, cost-effective and scalable processing, tight quality control and integration of graphene-based products in end-user products. The end goal is to find commercially viable routes to make graphene-based energy storage devices as well as graphene-based nanocomposite materials. In particular, Graphene Labs and Lomiko recently launched a new venture, Graphene 3D Lab Inc. focused on development of the graphene-based composite materials for applications in 3D Printing.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA and NEW YORK, NEW YORK–(Nov. 22, 2013) – LOMIKO METALS INC. (TSX VENTURE:LMR)(PINKSHEETS:LMRMF)(FRANKFURT:DH8B) (Europe: ISIN: CA54163Q1028, WKN: A0Q9W7,) (the “Company”) announced today the formation of Graphene 3D Labs Inc. to focus on the development of high-performance graphene-enhanced materials for 3D Printing. Dr. Daniel Stolyarov of Graphene Laboratories Inc. (“Grapehne Labs”) was appointed CEO and Dr. Michael Gouzman, a leading expert in 3D Printing, was appointed VP of Engineering and Technology.

On February 12, 2013 the Company had entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement (“SAA”) with Graphene Labs. The creation of Graphene 3D Labs, a spin-out of Graphene Labs, is a result of R&D efforts during the duration of the SAA.

3D Printing is a new and promising manufacturing technology that has garnered much interest, growing from uses in prototyping to everyday products. Today, it is a billion dollar industry growing at a brisk pace. New developments in 3D printing will allow products with different components such as printed electronic circuits, sensors or batteries to be manufactured.

High quality graphite is a base material for producing graphene. Lomiko will provide graphite to Graphene 3D Labs as the exclusive supplier to Graphene 3D Labs and invest $ 50,000 in the start-up for 250,000 preferred shares which are entitled to dividends. Lomiko will require a minimum of $ 300,000 financing by May 1, 2014 to participate in the venture and further financings to participate in a series of graphene-related ventures in addition to work on a graphite resource at the Quatre Milles Project. The transaction is arm’s length and subject to the approval of the TSX.

“Our involvement in Graphene 3D Labs is a concrete first step into the world of Graphene, 3D Printing and Printed Electronics. This is a rapidly developing new market for high quality natural graphite.” stated A. Paul Gill, CEO from the Graphene Live! Conference in Santa Clara, California held November 19-22, 2013.

Dr. Elena Polyakova, CEO of Graphene Labs, was a speaker on Graphene Live! and stated, “We anticipate graphene-enabled materials to revolutionize 3D printing. We anticipate strong demand in airspace, automotive, semi-conductor and advanced manufacturing industries.”

Currently Lomiko and Graphene Labs are working toward the integration of graphene-based products into end-user goods as set out in the Strategic Alliance. Lomiko’s high quality graphite and the extensive customer database cultivated by the experts at Graphene Labs will prove indispensable to reaching production and commercialization goals.

Further developments related to new developments from Graphene 3D Labs on specific materials and results from the Supercapacitor Project will be reported when results are available.

Lomiko Provides Update on Strategic Alliance With Graphene Labs

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA and NEW YORK, NEW YORK–(Sept. 27, 2013) – LOMIKO METALS INC. (TSX VENTURE:LMR) (PINKSHEETS:LMRMF) (FRANKFURT:DH8B) (Europe: ISIN: CA54163Q1028, WKN: A0Q9W7,) (the “Company”) announced on February 12, 2013 that it had entered into a Strategic Alliance with Graphene Laboratories Inc. (“Graphene Labs”). The Strategic Alliance is focused on developing a vertically integrated supply chain for large-scale graphene production; key factors to success will include a secure supply of high-quality graphite, cost-effective and scalable processing, and high quality control.

The Strategic Alliance provided Lomiko with an exclusive opportunity to participate in Graphene Lab Projects such as the Supercapacitor Project in collaboration with the SUNY Research Foundation at Stony Brook University, which umbrellas the Advanced Energy Research and Technology Center (AERTC) and the Center for Advanced Technology in Diagnostic Tools and Sensor Systems (Sensor CAT).

These efforts have produced success as indicated by the recent announcement that graphite samples from Lomiko’s Quatre Milles Property were converted to Graphene Oxide (“GO”) and Reduced Graphene Oxide (“RGO”), similar to materials which are currently available for sale on www.graphene-supermarket.com. Lomiko will continue to participate in projects is currently reviewing several opportunities with Graphene Labs. Lomiko will also continue providing mineral samples from the Quatre Milles Project, as required for further testing of the conversion of natural high quality flake graphite to graphene.

Currently Lomiko and Graphene Labs are working toward the integration of graphene-based products into end-user goods as set out in the Strategic Alliance. Lomiko’s high quality graphite and the extensive customer database cultivated by the experts at Graphene Labs will prove indispensable to reaching production and commercialization goals.

In light of the progress made, Graphene Laboratories and Lomiko decided to reconsider the terms of the Alliance agreement. According to the original terms of the Agreement, Lomiko was provided an opportunity to provide equity financing to Graphene Laboratories on an exclusive basis up to $ 2 million. At this time, Lomiko will not purchase an equity position directly in Graphene Labs due to market conditions and the effect of dilution at Lomiko’s current price. Instead, Graphene Laboratories and Lomiko will use available resources to pursue commercialization of the technology developed together. The details of the future collaboration of Lomiko and Graphene Laboratories in the Strategic Alliance will be announced shortly.
