There are more then enough buyers for MRF's Graphene as it is right now without any Tech Drivers. I don't think selling Graphene is going to be a problem for MRF the demand is only increasing.
The Lithium Batteries have allot of problems and Graphene reduces their Problems significantly. The point MR Grigor was talking about is not doing away with but a Disruptive Force upon other materials... Like for Instance Lithium.

Tesla's gigafactory could be obsolete before it even opens. Here's why.
http://fortune.com/2015/04/27/gigafactory-obsolete/
"A disruptive shadow looms over Tesla Motors’ giant Nevada “gigafactory”—the threat of rapidly advancing battery technology. While plenty of hurdles face new battery tech, the emergence of a viable and significantly better battery in the next five years could turn Tesla’s $5 billion facility for mass producing lithium-ion batteries into a giga-albatross.
In January, Fuji Pigment Co. Ltd. (not affiliated with Fujifilm) announced that it had made a significant breakthrough in aluminum-air battery technology."

Graphene is going to be a part of all our lives in amazing ways. When IBM got a Graphene Chip to send IBM one commentator laughed at this not really appreciating the exponential aspect of Development.
I think that the scale of the Capital involved is historic. MRF can stagger its growth as it sells ORE into selling Graphene undercutting the Market.
I think PDF has many of the Pertinent facts and is from this year....

MRL Corp Highlights:
Graphene on the Road to Stardom
http://www.theaustralian.com.au/bus...-road-to-stardom/story-fnciihm9-1227358206445
"Warwick Grigor, of Far East Capital, who is running hard with the graphene story, figures that if just 5 per cent of car owners around the world went for the new high-end tyres, and 80 grams of graphene was used in each tyre, that would require 6800 tonnes of graphene, against the present output of about 1000 tonnes."
"Here’s a new one from MRL Corp (MRF) — of which more in a moment — and explains that this material “is as versatile as any discovered on Earth. Its amazing properties as the lightest and strongest material, compared with its ability to conduct heat and electricity better than anything else, mean it can be integrated into a huge number of applications.”
"Now MRL says it can do the same as Talga. This sent shares up 152.9 per cent on Wednesday, followed by another 11.6 per cent on Thursday. MRL ended the week at 7.7c — which would have been good news for the investors in a just-closed $1 million placement at 4c a share.
The junior’s project is in Sri Lanka, which is re-emerging as a graphite player. The country, when it was the British colony of Ceylon, was a significant producer of graphite, especially during the two world wars when other sources were unavailable. In 1916, Ceylon was satisfying 30 per cent of the world’s need for graphite, and in the second conflict more than 6000 shallow pits were being worked along with the large commercial mines.
MRL says it has run tests that show its graphite is amenable to single-step extraction of graphene and that “the quality of the prepared graphene from MRL’s is outstanding and comparable with the quality of graphene prepared by synthetic routes”.
As the company further tells us, graphite occurs as amorphous, flake or crystalline vein — and Sri Lanka is the only commercial source of the last, “the highest quality of naturally occurring material in the world”.
Grigor says Talga has the advantage of low-cost, open-pit mining while MRL will have to mine underground. But the latter provides an early-stage entry for investors who missed out on Talga."

I also am surprised the Key Investment Drivers don't already get you excited Nih;
What are your Deductions from these Key Investment Drivers for MRL Corporation?
Source:
http://www.mrltd.com.au/attachments/article/136/20150513-GrapheneResults-FINAL.pdf
1/ High Quality / Low Defect Graphene
2/ Independently Confirmed
3/ Run Of Mine ORE
4/ Spherical Graphite for Lithium Ion Batteries
(Graphene Batteries as well obviously as well as all the other Tech Areas like Graphene Chips)
5/ Graphene Production:
1 Step Process
6/ Sold into Traditional and High Value Markets
7/ Unequaled by Graphite Projects in any other Country
My prediction, for what its worth, is that this Capital Overlapping (USA/CHINA) allows MRF to name their Price and more importantly get a leg up that Talga just didn't have.
