Focus Metals and Hydro-Quebec's IREQ Sign Graphite Purification Technology Agreement and Anode Production Agreement for Li-Ion Batteries

FMS: TSX-V

Focus Metals Inc. and Hydro-Québec's world-leading research institute, IREQ, today announced the signing of a licensing agreement enabling Focus Metals to develop a graphite purification facility and a graphite anode production facility for lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries.

A new, Focus-owned facility will transform first-production graphite sourced from Focus Metals' Lac Knife (Québec) high-grade deposit to battery-grade material.

The licensing agreement is in two parts. The first part is related to Focus Metals' development of a graphite purification process that brings Lac Knife's processed graphite to 99.95% carbon for use in lithium battery applications. The processing includes spherical shaping as well as thermal and chemical purification. The second part of the agreement provides for the production of anodes for Li-ion batteries.

IREQ will provide technical support and cooperate in future material and processing technology improvements.

Focus Metals' President and CEO, Gary Economo, said the new purification and production facilities will be built in Québec and will be owned and managed by Focus Metals. The new purification facility will be designed, subject to positive economic analysis, to produce 15,000 tons of spherical battery-grade flake graphite at peak, by 2015, whereas the anode production facility will be designed to produce up to 5,000 tons of anodes. The exact cost of the facilities and the financing required have yet to be determined.

In exchange for the technology licence, technological support and future processing improvements, IREQ will receive a licensing fee that will be paid in cash over a three-year period, representing less than 10% of the current working capital, as well as a royalty fee based on a percentage of future sales.

"This agreement represents a huge and significant milestone for us as we move through pre-development to production of our Lac Knife technology graphite deposit," said Mr. Economo. "Moreover, the marriage of Focus's Québec-based, world-class graphite deposit to the Québec-based global leader in processing technologies-especially in battery anode production-will leave Focus Metals well-positioned to secure its place as a quality supplier to the fast-growing lithium battery manufacturing sector."

About Focus Metals Focus Metals Inc. is an emerging mid-tier junior mining company, a technology solutions supplier and a business innovator. It is the owner of the highest-grade (16%) technology graphite resource in the world.
