Forward Looking Statements and Disclaimer: For personal use only This presentation has been prepared by Talga Resources Limited (ACN 138 405 419) (“Issuer”) for the sole purpose of providing an overview of its current prospects and propo
Slide 4: Supply Side Problem
Supply Side Problem Pace of graphene uptake & commercialisation is hampered by current limitations of production scale and cost more than quality. For personal use only Main factors delaying uptake of graphene platelets into ordinary products include: ‣ Lack of scale: most production methods are not
Slide 5: Scale Problem
Scale Problem Paradigm shift in scale of production required For personal use only ‣ While the media is excited by future ‘hi-tech’ applications the main driver of near term graphene commoditisation may be additives. ‣ Small amounts of graphene (0.05-2%) added to common bulk Global Consumption of ma
Slide 6: The Graphite Ore Problem
The Graphite Ore Problem Abundant natural graphite requires multi-stage expensive processes For personal use only ‣ The problem with scalable natural graphite sources though is they require multiple stages of crushing, milling and flotation to form a concentrate for further stages of purification co
Slide 7: Rod Ruoff quote on graphene from bulk graphite
For personal use only “Ultimately, the best way to slash costs and propel graphene into the mainstream would be to make high- quality monolayers from bulk graphite....but a practical, scalable method still seems a long way off. We need some sort of a breakthrough here.” Rod Ruoff, University of Texas
Slide 8: The Breakthrough
The Breakthrough TALGA In Feb 2014 Talga announced exceptional RESOURCES results from testing a 1-step scalable method For personal use only on the Nunasvaara graphite deposit, Sweden. ‣ The Nunasvaara graphite deposit is the world’s highest grade graphite mineral resource1 compliant to JORC or NI43
Slide 9: Paradigm Shift to Lower Cost
Paradigm Shift to Lower Cost ‣ Because of the unique characteristics of the ore deposit, both graphite and For personal use only graphene platelets can be liberated from the ore in a single step process. This means no expensive multiple stage processing or purification stages that TALGA RESOURCES RA
Slide 10: Quality and Consistency
Quality and Consistency TALGA RESOURCES For personal use only ‣ The ore source provides high level of consistency and size of graphene platelets. ‣ Initial tests of graphene platelets from the raw ore demonstrate single to few layered graphene of surprisingly high quality (Raman defect-to-layer rati
Slide 11: Scalable to Market Size
Scalable to Market Size ‣ Robust outcropping high grade resource and extreme For personal use only homogeneity (see drilled section) makes Nunasvaara a unique source for low-cost and high quality bulk supply potential. ‣ With JORC compliant resource1of (ASX:TLG 8 Nov 2012) 7.6Mt @ 24.4% graphite (“C
Slide 12: It's More About The Ore
It’s More About The Ore TALGA Multiple physio-chemical factors required for raw ore to work RESOURCES in lowest cost production pathway only 1-step process Natural graphite ore enabled for lowest cost single stage processing. use Grade personal Very high grade ore eg,>16%Cg which is rare in global r
Slide 13: Developing Workflow
Developing Workflow TALGA RESOURCES For personal use only ‣ Methods for measuring constant stream graphene platelet quality in production scenarios include: ‣ Nanoscale - Raman and atomic force microscopy (AFM) is revealing factors of graphene platelet morphology and defects. Movies of 3-d ‘Tornado’
Slide 14: Summary
Summary TALGA RESOURCES For personal use only ‣ In recent tests Talga has demonstrated ability to produce high quality graphene direct from its raw (uncrushed/unpurified) graphite ore which provides Talga with unique economic advantages compared to global graphene peers. ‣ This new low cost and abun
