first tonnes of flakes to be sold soon Nouveau Monde Graphite is on the move again.
Last week, the company announced an innovative partnership with Hydro-Quebec to produce and improve battery anode material for li-ion.
This week, they’ve announced they are getting close to start producing graphite flakes in their demo plant and will soon begin marketing their products.
They also grabbed a fourth employee from Imery’s Graphite & Carbon. The former metallurgist at the Lac-des-Iles mine has now joined their team. They now boast 60 years of experience between these four guys and the former SGL Carbon employee in charge or the graphite purification.
NOU.V is the only North American graphite junior with a demonstration plant. A clear path towards the signing of offtake agreements.
