How HPQ going to fund fumed silica pilot plant

[Zinzin]

It looks like they will create pilot plant to test scalability. Bernerd also stated he would pilot plant as 50 ton production plant for fumed silica. Are they going to use qrr3 also to be 50 ton production plant? Logical sense telling me they should start producing icing qrr3.

From the corporate presentation: In 2021, HPQ signed an agreement with PyroGenesis covering the development of a new Fumed Silica Reactor and the future commercialization of silica materials (Fumed, Precipitated and Fused Silica) produced by the process. Included in the agreement, the $2 million stated cost of constructing and operating the 50 tonnes per year (TPY) commercial pilot plant will be

It is unfortunate that timelines for commercialized plant is 2 years out :-( if I go by Bernard's past track record on meeting timelines,  2 years may be optomistic,  Sp will IMHO be flat unless we cut a deal  I am suprised HPQ is not moving fwd with a sense of urgency.  Shareholders seem am after thought at this point IMHO. Very dissatisfied with the pace of this company

When HPQ secure funding for production system that is when we will see SP rise. God willing we soon see news on funding. I dont mind SP is flat now. It gives me more time to buy because I believe on the success of the business.

your correct on funding . Been sayinjg that for a while.

........As far as ' timelines ' come & go ,, Bernard always said they aren't always in control...and he never promised anything about the   FSR  fumed silica process coming to market ....Yet here we are at an advanced stage , very close to marketing/ selling  something that wasn't promised...and the Si metal is in the same stage...What's to complain

Thanks for this Renaissance, so roughly $600,000 would be HPQ Polvere's share or probably more like $1,000,000 with current inflation
