Trading Update
Applied Intellectual Capital Limited ("AIC") (AIM: AINC) funds, develops, patents and commercializes electrochemical and advanced
separations technologies in clean energy, electricity storage, water treatment, metals recovery and other emerging markets. AIC today
provides the following update on progress made with its electric vehicle battery (BLAB), large scale flow battery (Plurion), bio-fuels
(RedOx) and mining & metals recovery (EverClear) technologies.
1. LARGE SCALE FLOW BATTERIES (PLURION)
AIC announces that it is has engaged Mirabaud Securities Limited to lead a private equity raise for Plurion Limited. Plurion is seeking
investment to put its two year business plan into action. Plurion is also pursuing public finance sources. This new investment will build on
the progress already achieved and is intended to carry the project forward to a fully scalable 22.5 kilowatt module, which is the basis of
its commercial product offering. Once this milestone is achieved, Plurion would be positioned to become a major and potentially a key
player in the global electricity storage industry. AIC is a majority owner of Plurion.
2. MINING & METALS RECOVERY (EVERCLEAR)
EverClear Solutions, Inc. ("EverClear") has retained Nomura International plc to assist with a private placement fundraising and to
provide certain other advisory services. The fundraising will enable EverClear to progress its business plan which includes: further field
trials in support of the development of a bankable feasibility study for the Tsumeb Tailings Dam in Namibia jointly with Weatherly
International; assessment of a growing number of potential sites in the Americas and Africa; and engineering of project-specific hardware
and applications. In June, EverClear completed a successful field demonstration at the Mintek Test Facility in Johannesburg, South Africa
recovering LME grade copper from tailings from the Tsumeb site. AIC owns a significant minority interest in EverClear.
3. ELECTRIC VEHICLE BATTERY (BLAB)
AIC has successfully completed laboratory testing of a thin film bi-polar lead acid battery (BLAB) in a configuration suitable for
electric bicycles and scooters. Discussions have progressed with a potential Chinese business partner concerning their interest in
commercialization of what may be the first of several electric vehicle batteries. The combined efforts of AIC and this potential partner are
focused on exploiting a $3 billion market for such batteries in China.
4. BIOFUELS (REDOX)
Lab testing of AIC's metal mediated redox and hydrolysis solutions is continuing and RedOx is progressing towards the yield levels that
will be needed to make the technology a commercial success. The primary focus is on the conversion of waste biomass to ethanol in
collaboration with Mitsubishi Corp, and waste biomass to PHA (organic plastic) with University College Dublin. Lab testing of the conversion
of biomass to commercially attractive advanced biofuels has also commenced.
