GRAPHITE ONE ANNOUNCES CREATION OF G1 ADVANCED SYSTEMS DIVISION AND MARKETING CAMPAIGN UPDATE

Graphite One Inc. has created a new division of the company, which will be the company's platform for developing next-generation graphite technologies and supply systems for the energy, technology and national security sectors.

"This new division will focus on expanding the applications for Graphite One's planned domestic graphite supply chain beyond battery and energy storage systems," said Anthony Huston, chief executive officer of Graphite One. "It stems from our recognition that graphite and graphene are transformational materials in evolving technologies relevant to the energy/defence/national security and space sectors."

Marketing campaign update

Graphite One's U.S. supply chain strategy

With the United States currently 100 per cent import-dependent for natural graphite, Graphite One is developing a fully integrated United States-based supply chain anchored by the Graphite Creek deposit -- recognized by the U.S. Geological Survey as the largest graphite deposit in the U.S. and among the largest globally. The company's current strategy includes:

• Mining at Graphite Creek (Alaska);
• Transporting through the Port of Nome;
• Processing into advanced graphite and anode materials in Ohio;
• Potential co-located recycling facility to recover graphite and other battery materials, subject to project financing.

This integrated approach positions Graphite One to become a cornerstone supplier in a domestic, circular battery material economy in recognition of graphite's indispensable role in rapidly developing technology sectors. The company's strategy now includes the creation of a new advanced system division, which will be the platform for developing next-generation graphite technologies and supply systems for the energy, technology and national security sectors.

About Graphite One Inc.

Graphite One continues to develop its Graphite One project with the goal of becoming an American producer of high-grade anode materials that is integrated with a domestic graphite resource. The project is proposed as a vertically integrated enterprise to mine and process natural graphite and to manufacture artificial and natural graphite anode active materials primarily for the lithium-ion-electric vehicle battery and energy storage markets.
