- giving something a brand name does not change the raw product
- the raw product is not the greenest on the market
- it may not require HF acid, but other chemicals are used (are they hazardous) and thermal purification has not been ruled out, which is costly and damaging to flake structure
- importantly, others have tried to market chemical free graphite and it seems the market cares little for green - it only wants cheap... ecograph has not been shown to be cheaper than Chinese supply!
Imo EcoGraph has been a huge distraction and a waste of valuable funds. Even the ATO thinks EcoGraph is not groundbreaking R&D!!
You clearly have no idea what you are talking about...why keep trying to sound like you do?
You also seem very concerned, very similar to Trommel, also seems very concerned all the time...not good for you guys...I am 'concerned' it might give you guys an ulcer or even something worse...
Lets stick to what we know:
- Nothing is guaranteed
- Apparently, the potential partner for the 1st plant has been narrowed down to be in the Asia region, which would suggest 1 of 3 possible candidates
- It appears we will find out very soon if it's a potential company maker or not.
Now onto a more serious matter...what happened to all your claims that all Tanz G miners will need to use MNS PROCESSING FACLITIES as none of them will be able to export their G concentrates
and are all doomed...MNS the only one able to export G??
All IMO
Enjoy your Sunday everyone
