Timing has a lot to do with successI wonder if this part of todays N R is what caused the increased vol. and bump in share price and investors who have been sitting on the sidelines are starting to warm to what PYR has ?
"With the Purevap GEN3 QRR pilot plant functional, HPQ is ready to disrupt silicon manufacturing, an industry that still relies on a traditional process developed in 1899 to make silicon. The Purevap QRR pilot plant could not have come online at a more opportune time. Demand for traditional silicon is estimated to exceed 3.8 million tonnes by 2025. This represents an addressable market worth over $10-billion (U.S.) based on historical average selling price for 5.5.3 Si (98.5 per cent Si) of $2,600 (U.S.) per tonne, or over $38-billion (U.S.) based on the average spot price for 5.5.3 Si of $10,000 (U.S.) per tonne obtained during Q4 2021 and Q1 2022. These numbers do not include demand that is about to come on line for high-purity silicon from the battery and high performance material companies just as bottlenecks we had foreseen are now occurring in the silicon supply chain," said Bernard Tourillon, president and chief executive officer of HPQ-Silicon.
