I believe that coming demand for graphite will be very strong.
It's use is not only in lithium-ion batteries, but in Fuel Cells, VRB's, Pebble Bed Nuclear Reactors and Expandable Graphite, plus future uses such a Graphene.
We should post about graphite's potentially new uses to help it and EGZ thrive.

=====================
excerpt..
It is Nikola’s goal to be completely emission free, including the production of hydrogen. To accomplish this, the company is presently commissioning and building a series of solar farms across the country that will convert water to hydrogen by means of electrolysis. Launch date for the entire system including production trucks and 56 fueling stations is 2019.
I also understand that Molybdenum disulfide (Mos2) could produce low cost hydrogen.
