Graphene 3D Lab announced that it has launched commercial sales of its conductive graphene filament for 3D printing. The filament incorporates highly conductive proprietary nanocarbon materials to enhance the properties of PLA, a widely used thermoplastic material for 3D printing. The filament is therefore compatible with most commercially available 3D printers. The conductive filament can be used to print conductive traces (similar to as used in circuit boards) within 3D printed parts for electronics.

The company's conductive filament is to be distributed through the Company's recently launched brand and e-commerce platform, Black Magic 3D, established as the trade name for all current and future Graphene 3D filaments.

Graphene 3D Lab announced signing a contract with U.S based ZeGo Robotics to develop a proof-of-concept 3D printer. The prototype machine will be specifically designed to print with the company's conductive graphene filament and other functionally-enhanced composite materials.

A prototype is meant to be delivered in 3 months, will be owned by Graphene 3D Lab as well as all related intellectual properties. Graphene 3D will also be granted a perpetual, royalty-free license to use any pre-existing ZeGo intellectual property integrated into the machine.

Graphene 3D Lab announced its intention to complete a non-brokered private placement financing, after which a total of 1,000,000 units will be available for subscription at a price of CAD$ 1.00 per unit for gross proceeds of CAD$ 1,000,000.

Each Unit is comprised of one common share and one half warrant common share purchase. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase a common share for CDN$ 1.25 for a period of two years.

Lomiko Metals, the Canadian company focused on the exploration and development of minerals with aims towards a new green economy, announced signing an agreement to invest in a new graphene-related venture called Graphene Energy Storage Devices (Graphene ESD) which is a U.S Corporation.

Graphene ESD Corp. has been formed with intentions to commercialize their energy storage technology, as Lomiko recently reported a successful conclusion to phase I of its Graphene Supercapacitor Project with Graphene Laboratories and Stony Brook University. 

Graphene 3D Lab recently introduced their 3D printed graphene battery prototype in the Inside 3D Printing Conference in Santa Clara, California. The prototype battery is composed of nanoplatelets of graphene that are added to polymers, and can already produce the same amount of energy as a common AA battery. The company states that these batteries will be able to be integrated into a 3D-printed object while that object is still being built, which grants the batteries enhanced performance potential (compared to non-integrated batteries) due to precise customization.

Since the battery is still in prototype phase, last month Graphene 3D Labs announced a partnership with Stony Brook University in Long Island, NY, for a round of quality control testing to get it to the next step.

Investment group Alpha Deal Group started covering Lomiko Metals (TSXV: LMR), stating that Lomiko is a "uniquely positioned junior graphite resource company and graphene technology incubator company". Alpha sees Lomiko's value being 166% higher than it's current market price.

Lomiko's current market cap is C$10.24 million. Lomiko holds 4.4 million shares (11.23% interest) of Graphene 3D Labs (TSXV: GGG) - which is worth C$5.85, and Lomiko has cash and equivalents worth a further C$4.86 million. So the company is worth less than its holdings and cash - while in addition it holds the Quatre Mills Graphite property and the Vines Lake property, and has a strategic alliance agreement with Graphene 3D Lab to access technology.

Graphene 3D Lab signed a joint-venture agreement with Stony Brook University (SBUY) for quality control testing of graphene-enhanced 3D printing materials. As part of this (extendable) one-year project, Graphene 3D will pay $137K to SBUY's Research Foundation, which will analytical services at a fully-equipped laboratory.

SBUY will consider both the mechanical and functional properties of those materials. They expect to report on the optimal printing conditions for graphene-enhanced 3D printing materials.

Using graphene as a 3D printing material is a very hot topic lately, with many companies attempting to unlock this market - including Graphene 3D Lab, Graphene Technologies, Grafoid, AGT, Qingdao Unique Products and others.

Graphene 3D Lab, a joint-venture between Graphene Labs and Lomiko Metals which recently went public in Canada, is one of the leaders in this new market. The company's founder and COO, Dr. Elena Polyakova, was kind enough to explain the company's technology and business and answer a few questions I had.

Following is a sponsored message from Lomiko Metals

Graphene 3D Labs went public on August 11th at $0.40 per share and at the time of writing, it hit a new 52-week high today of $2.09 per share for a gain of 522% in less than two months. Lomiko invested into Graphene 3D Labs earlier this year at an average investment price of $0.12 per share. Lomiko's gains are not yet being reflected in the company's share price.

Graphene 3D Lab is now a public company, trading in the Canadian TSX stock exchange under the ticker GGG, following the company's reverse-merger with Matnic Resources (whose previous ticker was MIK.V). It's great to see another public graphene company!

Graphene 3D Lab is a joint-venture between Graphene Labs and Lomiko Metals. The company focuses on the development of high-performance graphene-enhanced materials for 3D Printing. Lomiko Metals holds 15% of Graphene 3D Lab (4.4 million shares).
