Details
The Company is finalising the PEA on its Amitsoq Graphite Project, which it anticipates will be
published in October 2023. The PEA, which is being prepared by SLR Consulting, a leading UKbased mining consulting firm, will provide an economic model intended to demonstrate the
profitability of the mining of graphite at Amitsoq and enable GreenRoc to firm up a work
programme for the coming year focused on advancing the Project towards development status.
GreenRoc is progressing discussions with several potential international off take parties, which
have expressed interest in receiving sample material from Amitsoq. The Company expects to
receive new graphite concentrate material in Q4 2023 from a bulk sample which is being
processed in Germany by UVR-FIA GmbH, which will then be sent to interested parties.
GreenRoc has joined the Danish Centre for Energy Storage ('DaCES'), which is a unique platform
within the energy storage and conversion sector where Danish universities and companies work
closely together across the entire value chain from research and innovation to industry and
export. GreenRoc was pleased to participate in the DaCES Annual Meeting on 14 September 2023
in Copenhagen, where it met key players within the Danish energy storage industry and research
community.
Additionally, the Company is taking part in several other events. On 2 October 2023, GreenRoc's
CEO, Stefan Bernstein, will present at a stakeholders' consultation meeting on 'EU - Greenland
Strategic Partnership on sustainable raw materials value chains', being hosted online by The
European Union and The Government of Greenland.
He will also be participating in a
focusIR/London South East Natural Resources live webinar on 3 October 2023 between 6pm and
8pm. To watch the event, please register at https://bit.ly/3EWu6hH.
GreenRoc's CEO, Stefan Bernstein, commented:
"We look forward to publishing the PEA in October, only slightly behind our originally planned
schedule. The PEA will provide a detailed assessment of the technical aspects and costs associated with
the construction and operation of our Amitsoq mine and processing plants and enable us to plan the
next steps.
"We are also delighted with the growing interest in our product from potential international off takers,
driven by their recognition of the importance of securing a future pipeline of non-Chinese graphite in
a global market which is being driven by phenomenal growth in demand from the EV battery sector.
"I look forward to speaking to investors on 3 October 2023, when I participate in the focusIR/London
South East Natural Resources live webinar."
