Dr. D’Couto discussed how the BuzzBar is unique from other offerings on the market, and the differentiated value proposition of the entire BuzzBar suite of products. Dr. D’Couto also noted that one of the reasons for the limited run of the first generation units is to get quick initial feedback from the consumer market as well as interested commercial entities and B2B opportunities. Neah Power plans to quickly launch the next generation of BuzzBar products incorporating early feedback from the market. “In our fluid new economy, it’s the smart and best way to develop and fine-tune new technology,” said Dr. D’Couto. “Our model moving forward is to bring products to market faster with new iterations that contain the features consumers want most more often. As a small company, we can move quickly and it gives us a strong competitive advantage.”

Dr. D’Couto also discussed the importance of the recent acquisition and what it means to the company and product strategy in 2014. Neah Power Systems purchased key assets from Clean Tech Investors for $440,000 in shares valued at $.019 per share. Clean Tech Investors also made a direct investment into the Company at the same valuation of $0.019 per share.

Liberty Star Receives Final Draft ZTEM Report *Client*

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 12:40 PM on Wednesday, December 11th, 2013

Lsumlogo_with_slogan2_20130730

Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (“Liberty Star” or the “Company”)(OTCQB: LBSR) is pleased to announce that as of noon Tuesday, Dec. 10, 2013, it has received the final draft ZTEM report from Geotech Ltd. ZTEM electromagnetic measurement data has been carefully analyzed by Geotech’s Chief Geophysicist Jean Legault, P. Geo, P. Eng. Among the report’s findings:

1. There are as many as 10 meaningful targets within the Hay Mountain Project area.

2. Hay Mountain contains a major anomaly centered on the geochem anomaly reported by Liberty Star (NR 127).

From the “Executive Summary” Summary Interpretation Report on a Helicopter-Borne
Z-Axis Tipper Electromagnetic (ZTEM) and Aeromagnetic Geophysical Survey:
The Hay Mountain Project Tombstone Mining District, Cochise County, Arizona
For: Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp.:

“The Hay Mountain Property is mainly underlain by a thick sequence of Paleozoic quartzite, limestone and siltstones, but potentially hosts buried porphyry copper deposits at structural intersections and under basin-fill formations. There is additional potential for polymetallic carbonate-hosted replacement deposits (CRD), as well as shallow chalcocite blanket porphyry type deposits and also skarn type porphyry copper deposits. Previous soil and vegetation geochemical surveys have identified a coincident Au-Pb-Cu anomaly and larger Mo-halo in the center of the property. The objective of the ZTEM surveys is to identify favourable magnetic and resistivity signatures related to potentially more deeply buried porphyry copper, CRD/skarn and chalcocite replacement deposits at Hay Mountain. The Magnetic surveys have determined that Hay Mountain hosts a large dominant magnetic high that lies buried below the Paleozoic sediments is centered over the Liberty Star geochemical anomaly and remains open to the south…As many as ten (10) magnetic anomalies have been defined.”

Company CEO/Chief Geologist Jim Briscoe’s summary: “Geotech’s Chief Geophysicist Jean Legault and I met for more than 12 hours in three sessions of four hours each over the last 10 days through GoToMeeting, me in Tucson and Legault in Canada, so we could look at the same images at the same time to interpret the ZTEM data. With my geological expertise in the Tombstone area and his geophysical expertise on copper anomalies all over the world, we came to the same conclusion that there is substantial evidence that the Hay Mountain area needs to be drilled. While I had five targets in mind, the ZTEM report indicated 10. I am pleased that the evidence continues to be mutually reinforcing that we may be looking at a major porphyry copper structure. The next step is drilling. We have a detailed cost analysis and will plot drill sites according to what we are seeing with the ZTEM. Once funding is secured, we will drill ASAP.”

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.

Liberty Star’s Hay Mountain Project Update *Sponsor*

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:50 AM on Tuesday, December 3rd, 2013

TUCSON, Ariz.–Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (“Liberty Star” or the “Company”) (OTCQB: LBSR) has an update on its premiere copper-gold-moly-REEs (rare earth elements) Hay Mountain exploration project in Cochise County, southeast Arizona.

“There is a lot of work to be done between now and then but all is technically feasible as confirmed by our environmental consultants with the definition of potential for an ore body suggested by our technical data.”

  1. 2D inversion ZTEM report received and geochem, geology, drill holes map(s) overlays on the ZTEM model are ongoing and nearing completion. As soon as the images have been completed and interpreted they will be submitted to SRK for assessment and inclusion in the “Technical Report on Exploration, Hay Mountain.”
  2. The company has concluded an equity financing for net $215,000 general operating funds (11/26/2013 Form 8K).
  3. Liberty Star expects to start negotiations soon on a mutual non-disclosure non-compete letter with a major global mining company that may lead to talks and perhaps a joint venture regarding the development of the Hay Mountain Project.

Briscoe’s summary of current events and future planning:

“All of our hard work continues to bring the Hay Mountain story to the attention of the international mining community. While financing has been difficult we are able to speak with growing confidence about what we are seeing at Hay Mountain. The Company also has accepted a detailed budget for our plan of exploration from Mr. Gene Rosenlund, geologist and our financial planning consultant. This plan is for the next four years of projected drilling on a 24/7/365 aggressive schedule, assuming availability of funding through a joint venture partner(s) and successful drill results. The development plan envisions an expenditure of $65 million in drilling of 737 thousand feet of core over four years. Year one would be for $6.1 million and would yield 67 thousand feet of diamond core drilling. Costs and timing were compiled by Rosenlund over the last six months and include 5,000 lines of details using Microsoft Project software, Gantt chart projections. The chart data can be updated from ‘projected’ to ‘actual’ and Rosenlund will do updating every day from data supplied electronically from the project site. Community outreach and preliminary permitting will start with the drill program. Post initial drilling, years five, six and seven will be occupied with additional permitting, mine design and construction. At this current stage only extensive drilling will prove a minable mineral body. But if an ore body is proven, we will use innovative contemporary design and construction techniques as presented by myself at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) annual meeting in Denver, Colorado seven years ago. This approach assures that water or other fluid will not ever leave the mine site, nor dust, noise or light (except a minor glow visible from aircraft). Rehabilitation of the surface with native plants will take place concurrent with mining so that when the last ton of mined material is removed the last planting will be done and the overburden storage will look like the surrounding land and be covered with mature native vegetation. During the mine life and thereafter the operation will be essentially invisible.

“There is a lot of work to be done between now and then but all is technically feasible as confirmed by our environmental consultants with the definition of potential for an ore body suggested by our technical data.”
