New PEA to Re-Rate Zentek's Albany Graphite for Nuclear, Defense Markets
Summary
Zentek's wholly-owned subsidiary, Albany Graphite Corp., has engaged Micon International to complete a new Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for its Albany Graphite Project. This PEA will specifically evaluate a high-purity thermal purification pathway capable of producing 5N+ graphite, targeting critical North American supply chains for nuclear energy, defense, and energy security applications.

The completion of this PEA, expected this summer, will be a significant catalyst, defining the next steps for the project's development and potential commercialization.
