Saint Jean Carbon Inc. (TSX-V:
SJL) (US
Listing: TORVF) (Frankfurt: WNFN) is a budding
technology company specializing in technological
innovation and applications surrounding the refinement
of graphite to atomic and near-atomic levels.
Investment Thesis
-- Near-term (12 month) share price target C$0.50.
Saint Jean
Carbon has transitioned from
being a commodity junior miner to one of the most
advanced graphene technology companies in North America
by partnering with some of the top research facilities
in the world, attracting highly skilled technical
talent, and in the process facilitating an array of
intellectual property
that appears poised to reap huge
gains for shareholders. Saint Jean Carbon recently
appointed as Chief Technology Officer the top Li-ion
battery expert in the world, Dr. Zhongwei Chen PhD,
MSChE, BS, -- we note a person of his calibre has his
choice of entities to associate with, the fact he has
chosen Saint Jean Carbon adds to our level of confidence that the Company is on a
pathway to becoming an integral participant in the electric vehicle
and energy storage sectors.
The Company has been commissioned to
build the first high speed commercial graphite shaping
and carbon coating mill in North America. The mill will
grind, size, shape and coat graphite for the lithium-ion
battery industry for use in electric cars and bulk
energy storage -- Saint Jean Carbon Inc. is bound
by confidentiality and non disclosure agreements from
saying with who, but most people looking at their
specifications of material are logically immediately
able to take the leap and say its Tesla. The Company's proprietary Spherical
Carbon Coated Graphite (SCCG) technology has
efficiencies far superior to what others are capable of
and has so impressed lithium-ion battery manufacturers
that after this first mill is installed on site at a
major electric vehicle manufacturers new facilities,
later in 2017, the successful marrying of SJL's SCCG
process to other materials and processes of the
manufacturer is expected to translate into an off-take
agreement for the Company to supply raw materials,
grind, shape, and coat 150,000 tonnes per year of
spherical carbon coated graphite for 20 years,
generating $350 to $500 million/per year in revenue at
capacity.
This first mill is being built as a prototype/first-shot
at proofing what is going on the EV company's anodes,
the mill will continue as a rolling start to bigger
numbers just mentioned.
Shaped graphite is a major component
of Li-ion batteries. Currently the company is
in the process of finalizing the engineering model and
equipment designs for the first high speed commercial
shaping and coating mill in North America.
Saint Jean Carbon Inc. is also at the
forefront of the next generation of batteries; this
January-2017 the Company announced it has started the
design and build of a graphene based lithium-ion
battery.
Excerpt of recent
(January 19, 2017) news from Saint Jean Carbon:
Saint Jean Carbon Builds First Graphene Based
Lithium-ion Battery
OAKVILLE, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - January 19, 2017) - Saint
Jean Carbon Inc.
(“Saint Jean” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:SJL), a
carbon science company engaged in the design and
build of green energy storage, green energy creation
and green re-creation through carbon materials. The
Company is pleased to announce it has started the
design and build of a graphene based lithium-ion
battery; based on the Company’s graphene production
capabilities the material being produced is
99.999999%gC and a single layer of graphite
measuring one atom in thickness will be used to
create the anode.
With two years of research completed and with great
samples of graphene produced, the Company feels
strongly that due to the fact that no harsh
chemicals or heat has been used to produce the
graphene, the high order of carbon is kept in
perfect condition, creating the possibility of the
highest performance seen in a lithium-ion battery to
date.
Paul Ogilvie, CEO, commented: “Research
is being conducted around the world in the graphene
space, we feel our strategy to focus on real world
applications where the graphene may play a leading
role is important to the Company’s growth strategy
and strengthens our global positioning as a green
technology company. As our battery projects
continue; from spherical shaped carbon coated
graphite, recycled battery materials and to now
applying our graphene expertise to lithium-ion
batteries, this tremendously rounds out our
research.”
Graphene can make batteries that are light, durable
and suitable for high capacity energy storage, as
well as shorten charging times. This will extend the
battery’s life, which is negatively linked to the
amount of carbon that is coated on the graphite or
added to electrodes to achieve conductivity.
Graphene adds conductivity without requiring the
amounts of carbon that are used in conventional
batteries.
Graphene can improve such battery attributes such as
energy density. Li-ion batteries can be enhanced by
introducing graphene to the battery’s anode and
capitalizing on the material’s conductivity and
large surface area to achieve morphological
optimization and performance.

Additionally, Saint Jean Carbon Inc.
announced on November 24, 2016 a collaborative project
with a 'their main battery manufacturing partner'
regarding the building of the world's first recycled
high performance Lithium-ion battery (click
here for full copy of that release from source).
The battery will use recycled/upcycling material from an
electric car power pack and the upcycled anode material
from Saint Jean Carbon. This battery will prove the life
cycle of the raw materials can be extended by being
re-used over and over again, and help to further
position Saint Jean as an integral player in the future
of the energy storage sector. We
can only speculate who that 'main battery manufacturing
partner' is, however it is increasingly clear when we
connect the dots that this is all shaping up to be a
spectacular opportunity for shareholders establishing a
long position in SJL.V now; when Saint Jean Carbon is in
a position to disclose the name of their 'main battery
manufacturing partner' we expect things will heat up dramatically
attention-wise.
