Saint Jean Carbon Provides Update on the Graphene Project
OAKVILLE, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Oct 7, 2015) - Saint Jean Carbon Inc. ("Saint Jean" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:SJL) is pleased to provide an update on Saint Jean's graphene project results. Last week Saint Jean Carbon in a press release issued on October 1, 2015, stating they had received a grant from NSERC (National Science and Engineering Research Council of Canada) and that the company would issue the results of the research on October 6th 2015. However, one of the magnetic nano level tests on the graphene has returned results leaving a very small chance that the measurements may not be 100% accurate. Measuring a magnetic field at this level is very difficult. As the material is believed to be a first of its kind, the company feels the conservative approach to assure the utmost of accuracy is in the best interest of the project and will help better understand the unique qualities of the material in the future. The team has determined that a different method of atomic level measurement must be obtained. The graphene will be sent out to a third party for testing. It is expected to take about 7 days for the test. When the results are available the company will issues the final results. We thank our shareholders for their patience. Dr. Don MacIntyre, the Company's geologist, P. Geo., and Qualified Person, reviewed and approved the technical and scientific information in this release.
