Unfortunately a lot has changed,

I would say Graphene has wrongly been associated to an unsafe product, it is correct and prudent to take steps to address this but sadly there will be many who simply will not read the detailed and scientific rebuttals to negative health claims. Those initial stories are going to remain in people’s memories for a long time.
People tend to err on the side of safety especially when it comes to family.

Zen is not a one trick pony in my opinion.

Now while we wait to see the outcome of this Health Canada fiasco it is a good time to pivot to our greatest strength. The fact that we possess one of largest and most valuable battery mineral ( graphite) deposits in the world.

In a time when the world is clamouring for such metals, resulting in large price increased and every vehicle manufacturer has announced a shift to EVs we can be positioning Zen to be a supplier to these needs

President Biden recently announced a program where TRILLIONs of dollars are being allotted to products that use lithium Ion batteries. In addition to the USA government, much of the world is following suit. When you add in the private sector it becomes staggering.

This electrification program appears unstoppable

Those of us here all know that these batteries are better called graphite ion due to the far greater graphite content. Some estimates put the number at 16x the graphite to lithium.

So what is Zen to do? Wait for HC to issue a bulletin that may or may not impact peoples perceptions and attitudes to a consumer product or do we move on our existing assets?

This is not a rejection of our GO technology but a necessary adaptation to the current situation.

As stated earlier Zen is not a one trick pony and must shift as required between its strengths and right now that strength is the ability to be a leader in the hottest mineral sector.
