University of California - Davis Immediate Strategy for Scalable Unitized Block Commercial Plant DesignVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 10, 2024) - Homerun Resources Inc. (TSXV: HMR) (OTCQB: HMRFF) (\"Homerun\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that due to unsolicited interest in +99.99 silica sand, the Company and Bahia Graphite Corporation have doubled the investment commitment to the research and development partnership with the University of California at Davis (UC-Davis). The increase in the gift will support UC-Davis Material Science and Engineering's materials research and development, conducted in the laboratories headed by Professor Subhash Risbud at UC-Davis.Specifically, UC-Davis will be further advancing Homerun and Bahia Graphite initiatives within the development of a Scalable Unitized Block Commercial Plant Design:To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/4082/233159_473b466e24b2aa0c_001full.jpgIn close collaboration with Homerun, Professor Risbud and his students will utilize their extensive expertise to continue to pioneer disruptive processing methods and advanced materials product development from the silica and graphite resources provided by Bahia Graphite and the Company. The focus is on scaling production where all commercial outcomes will target zero-waste and zero-emissions as all industrial streams are integrated into commercial advanced materials and industrial outputs including the in-process CO2 emissions.Professor Subhash Risbud, Dept of Materials Science and Engineering from the University of California at Davis stated, \"We feel more energized and grateful to Homerun and Bahia Graphite under the dynamic leadership of Brian Leeners for providing the additional funding to support additional womenpower that will create speedways to our goals of inventive materials processes for industrial products.\"\"The silica purification process developed in partnership with the UC Davis laboratory makes it possible to obtain high-quality specialty silica. This process does not use chemical reagents and does not affect the environment. In one of the stages of this process, graphite prepared and supplied by Bahia Graphite will be used. The aim is to apply this process to other ores, especially critical ...
