14.10.2014  |  The Newswire
Updates its Direction to Becoming a Vertically Integrated Carbon Company focused on High End Expandable Graphite and Graphene

HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA / TNW-ACCESSWIRE / October 14, 2014 / Troy Grant, President and CEO of Elcora Resources Corp. (TSXV:ERA), (the "Company" or "Elcora"), is pleased to announce that the shareholders of the Company have approved a change of name from Elcora Resources Corp. to Graphene Corporation. In addition, the Company announces future milestones for graphene development.

Vertically Integrated Production

Dr. Ian Flint, Elcora's VP - Processing and Refining, states that "the Company is following a strategy of vertical integration so that it will control each step of graphite production from mine to final production which will enable the Company to mine and thereafter optimize the conversion of the processed graphite to bulk, top-down, single or few layered graphene. Test work is currently underway to adapt known methods of graphene creation, and thereafter scale a selected method to a market supportable production rate."


Graphene Production Milestones:

Management has determined that the milestones to this objective are the following:
  1. 1.Evidence that graphene can be made from properly processed graphite;

  2. 2.Establish partnerships with leading industrial graphene end users;

  3. 3.Design and build a commercial graphene production facility, and

  4. 4.Produce commercial graphene


Currently, Elcora, (Graphene Corporation) is undertaking a series of laboratory processing tests on graphite from its Ragedara mine to produce graphite in a form suitable for conversion to graphene. These proof-of-concept tests are on-going and are expected be completed in the fourth quarter of 2014. This will be part of a continuous research and development effort leading to high conversion ratios of the graphite to graphene on a commercial scale.
