TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - March 6, 2017) - Great Lakes Graphite Inc. ("GLK" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:GLK)(OTC PINK:GLKIF)(FRANKFURT:8GL) today announces fulfillment of the first purchase order, for one ton of synthetic graphite, from a privately-held company that is a leading manufacturer and marketer of lubricants and greases to customers both in the United States and globally. 

Senior Vice President of Sales Mike Coscia said, "We can now add lubricants to the markets for which we have qualified, or are qualifying our products, including drilling fluids, industrial foams, biomedical, conventional battery, lithium-ion battery and energy storage applications. Over the coming months we will continue to qualify our products for new markets and will also begin driving deeper into the markets and applications for which our products have been successfully qualified."

Update on International Orders

Great Lakes Graphite is also pleased to confirm that the two recently-announced international purchase orders from customers in the Middle East and Western Europe have been shipped. The order for 400 kilograms of micronized flake graphite for the Western European customer was air freighted while the 20 tonne shipment of synthetic graphite is being delivered to the Middle East by container ship.

Great Lakes Graphite Chief Executive Officer Paul Gorman said, "With the addition of every account we expand our knowledge base and begin to establish ourselves as a trusted supplier to our customers. As a new supplier, we work hard every day to build our credibility and to grow our reputation for reliability. Over and over prospects and customers state that quality, consistency and reliability of these products is essential and that a solid supply chain is absolutely critical to enable these companies to manage their businesses."

US Industrial Continues Purchasing, Placing First Order For 2017

The large US-based industrial company that purchased hundreds of tons of synthetic graphite from Great Lakes Graphite in 2016 has continued ordering from the Company with their first purchase order of 2017 for twenty tons of synthetic graphite. Now that Great Lakes has been established as an approved vendor providing material for the Canadian market, the US-based customer is preparing to introduce the product in the US markets where it has significant operations.

None of the graphite used to fulfill any of these orders originated from the Company's own properties.
