LOMIKO METALS INC. (TSX VENTURE:LMR)(PINKSHEETS:LMRMF)(FRANKFURT:DH8B) (Europe:
ISIN: CA54163Q1028, WKN: A0Q9W7) (the "Company") announces Graphene 3D Lab has
reached a significant milestone by filing a provisional patent application for
the use of graphene-enhanced material, along with other materials, in 3D
Printing (Additive Manufacturing).


"This patent application is the result of a diligent effort on behalf of our
team. It opens up a clear path toward the commercialization of graphene," stated
Daniel Stolyarov, Graphene 3D Labs' CEO. "It is important that our proprietary
technology is accepted by consumers in this market and that we find a method of
creating graphene-infused filaments of outstanding quality at a reasonable cost.
We rely on high quality graphite from Lomiko's Quatre Milles Property as the
base material for producing graphene nanoplatelets, due to their cost and
consistency in quality."


"Lomiko will provide graphite to Graphene 3D Lab as the exclusive supplier,"
stated Paul Gill, CEO of Lomiko Metals. "Novel materials based on graphene open
new markets for natural graphite; these new markets are expanding at an
extraordinary rate. We are happy to participate in the development of this
disruptive technology."


On September 17, 2013, Lomiko and Graphene Labs reported that in the first step
of the conversion process of graphite to graphene, natural graphite flakes were
oxidized and turned into Graphene Oxide ("GO") by a modified Hummer's method.
The properties of graphene, including its high conductivity, mechanical
strength, and high specific surface area, make it an ideal electrode material.


3D printing -- or additive manufacturing -- is the process of creating a
three-dimensional, solid object from a digital file, of virtually any shape. 3D
printing is achieved using an additive process, whereas successive layers of
material are laid down and create different shapes. 


Adding graphene to polymers which are conventionally used in 3D printing
improves the properties of the polymer in many different ways; it improves the
polymers mechanical strength as well as its electrical and thermal conductivity.
The method described in the provisional patent application allows consumers to
use the polymer, infused with graphene, together with conventional polymers in
the same printing process, thereby fabricating functional electronic devices
using 3D printing.


New developments in 3D printing will allow for the creation of products with
different components, such as printed electronic circuits, sensors, or batteries
to be manufactured. 3D Printing is a new and promising manufacturing technology
that has garnered much interest, growing from uses in prototyping to everyday
products. Today, it is a billion dollar industry growing at a brisk pace.
