Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 6, 2017) - Dr. Stephen Campbell, Principal Scientist at Nano One Materials
(TSXV: NNO) (FSE: LBMB) (OTC Pink: NNOMF), is pleased to announce that Nano One has been issued U.S. Pat. No. 9,698,419. This
patent expands Nano One's propriety position to include the improvements in battery performance provided by the lithium ion cathode
materials produced using Nano One's process.
"The addition of this patent builds on an already strong portfolio of intellectual property Nano One has assembled." said
Dr. Campbell. "Expanding the segment of our patent portfolio related
directly to improved batteries demonstrates that our process also
provides superior lithium metal oxides which manifest in enhanced battery
performance."
By simplifying the raw material inputs and manufacturing of lithium ion cathodes, Nano One's goal is to reduce costs and enhance
energy storing properties of batteries. Patents previously issued to Nano One detail the manufacturing advantages of the novel
cathode formation technology.
This most recent patent issuance complements previously issued patents including Taiwan Patent No. I517,487 and U.S. Pat. Nos.
9,136,534 and 9,159,999.
"With 4 granted patents and many more in the pending stages," said Nano One's Patent Agent and
Director, Dr. Joseph Guy, "Nano One is establishing the backbone of an extremely valuable asset base. I
expect the team will continue to strengthen its intellectual property moving forward."

About Nano One:
Nano One Materials Corp ("Nano One" or "the Company") is developing patented technology for the low-cost production of high
performance battery materials used in electric vehicles, energy storage and consumer electronics. The processing technology
addresses fundamental supply chain constraints by enabling wider raw materials specifications for use in lithium ion batteries. The
process can be configured for a range of different nanostructured materials and has the flexibility to shift with emerging and
future battery market trends and a diverse range of other growth opportunities. The novel three-stage process uses equipment common
to industry and Nano One is building a pilot plant to demonstrate high volume production. The pilot plant is being funded with the
assistance and support of the Government of Canada through Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC) and the Automotive
Supplier Innovation Program (ASIP). Nano One also receives financial support from the National Research Council of Canada
Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP). Nano One's mission is to establish its patented technology as a leading platform
for the global production of a new generation of nanostructured composite materials. For more information, please visit www.nanoone.ca
