HPQ Silicon Inc V.HPQ

Alternate Symbol(s):  HPQFF

HPQ Silicon Inc. (HPQ) is a Canada-based technology company specializing in green engineering of silica and silicon-based materials. The Company is engaged in developing, with the support of technology partners PyroGenesis Canada Inc. (PyroGenesis) and Novacium SAS, new green processes to make the critical materials needed to reach net zero emissions. Its activities are centered around the three pillars: becoming a green low-cost (Capex and Opex) manufacturer of Fumed Silica using the Fumed Silica Reactor, a proprietary technology owned by HPQ being developed for HPQ by PyroGenesis; becoming a producer of silicon-based anode materials for battery applications with the assistance of Novacium SAS, and Novacium SAS is engaged in developing a low carbon, chemical base on demand and high-pressure autonomous hydrogen production system. The Company operates in a single operating segment, segment, being the sector of the transformation of quartz into silicon materials and derivative products.

RE:RE:PYR MD&A : Is UBR behind a new order?

RE:RE:PYR MD&A : Is UBR behind a new order?Possibly, but not sure that section pertains to UBR. Just prior to that is the following:

"In Q2, 2015 PyroGenesis was contracted by Uragold Bay Resources Inc. (“Uragold”) to evaluate the feasibility of using Plasma for the purpose of refining ore into pure metal; in this case converting quartz into pure silicon metal. Successful completion of this study is expected to lead to an order to design, manufacture and supply a pilot plant. Within 3 months of starting the project, PyroGenesis filed a provisional patent for a one step  process using plasma for producing high purity silicon from silica. The PUREVAP™ Quartz Vaporisation Process is a proprietary process that uses a plasma arc within a vacuum furnace  to produce high purity, metallurgical grade silicon (MG-Si), solar grade silicon (UMG Si) and polysilicon from quartz. According to Uragold, this patent-protected technology could revolutionize the solar panel industry, thereby making it a more competitive source of renewable energy. PyroGenesis has granted Uragold exclusive rights to the PUREVAP™ process, solely for the transformation of quartz. In exchange, PyroGenesis will receive royalties based upon 10% of sales of silicon metal refined by the process, with set minimums. According to Roskill’s Global Industry Markets & Outlook report (2014) for Silicon and Ferrosilicon, the world consumption of silicon metal in 2014 exceeded US$6 billion."
