http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-5108051/Autumn-Budget-includes-540-MILLION-electric-cars.html Electric and driverless cars in the UK have been given a major boost by the Chancellor today. A total of £540 million ($716 million) is being invested in electric cars, including £400 million ($530 million) on building more electric car charging points. While there are currently only 4,500 charging stations in the UK, the investment will enable this number to dramatically increase.

I'm hoping for a JORC increase on the gold project, Its been quiet a long time.

I have a feeling its going to be DRC gold production news. Gold & top grade Graphite too.

https://investorintel.com/sectors/technology-metals/technology-metals-intel/2017-opportune-year-graphite-producers/ At the end of last year, China announced they plan to stockpile graphite as one of their critical elements since production is likely to continue falling, and this year, Chinese spot graphite electrode prices recently reached $30,000 per MT, a 300% increase since January, demonstrating the serious nature of the looming supply deficit and leaving the door wide open for new projects.The growth in the markets for electric vehicles and grid storage systems should be enough to drive graphite prices even further, which, in the absence of new projects coming online, may ultimately close some smaller steel refineries as costs begin to spiral. Construction will still play a major role in graphite demand, but China’s construction sector will largely just continue to restrict their export of graphite products since the stockpiles will be consumed domestically.Graphite is about to explode in popularity, and the world’s largest supplier of the material is unable to scale as quickly as it once could. This puts junior explorers and burgeoning producers in an enviable position since very few new graphite projects have been listed over the last couple of decades, and any investor looking for exposure should consider getting in sooner rather than later.

Moving up again.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/electric-car-sales-rise-china-demand-market-asia-global-q3-profits-2017-a8066896.html Electric vehicles sales surged to a record in the third quarter, largely driven by strong demand in China. Sales of battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids exceeded 287,000 units in the three months ended in September, 63 per cent higher than the same quarter a year ago and up 23 per cent from the second quarter, according to a report released Tuesday by Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF). China accounted for more than half of global sales as its market for electric cars doubled amid government efforts to curb pollution.

Could be DRC gold project news.

Yes something seemed to be brewing yesterday lunchtime as dummy buys for even low amounts was going NT for quite some time. Very good news is imminent imo!

Still NT..must be a big order.

Dummy buy going Negotiated trade at the moment, even on very low amount.

It could be Mpokoto gold production news next.

Tesla Roadster: Elon Musk unveils 'fastest production car ever' in shock announcement https://www.google.co.uk/amp/www.telegraph. co.uk/technology/2017/11/17/tesla-unveils-electric-big-rig-truck-amid-manufacturing/amp/ The roadster will do 0-60 mph in 1.9 seconds and 0-100 in 4.2 seconds with a top speed of over 250 mph. All three world records. Additionally, it has a range of 1000 km, the first ever production vehicle to do that. good god and this is the base model...

http://www.energylivenews.com/2017/11/13/uk-roads-to-see-200k-electric-cars-by-end-of-2018/ That’s according to latest statistics from Chargemaster, which found EV registrations rose by nearly 50% last month compared to the same period in 2016. The UK saw a decline in diesel registrations by 29.9% in October – the seventh consecutive monthly fall. More than 120,000 plug-in cars are now registered in the UK. David Martell, CEO of Chargemaster said: “We will probably end this year with 45,000 new plug-in cars having been registered and we expect to see around 70,000 registered in 2018. By the end of the year, we estimate that there will be 200,000 electric cars on UK roads, rising to 500,000 by the end of 2020 and to one million by the end of 2022.”

https://www.theverge.com/2017/11/8/16625938/ford-china-zotye-electric-cars-manufacturing Ford has agreed to a $765 million joint venture with Chinese car manufacturer Zotye Auto to build electric vehicles in China, CNET reports. Each company has a 50 percent stake in the effort, though the Chinese government still needs to approve the deal. Once complete, they will build the cars in China’s Zhejiang Province. The combination of these two companies is a result of a mandate from the Chinese government that requires foreign manufacturers to strike up partnerships with local ones in order to build cars domestically. And considering China recently put extra hurdles in the way of building cars that run on fossil fuels (as opposed to an outright fossil fuel ban, like some other countries), EVs are a natural place for the joint venture to start.

2.0p to buy now.

https://finfeed.com/features/battery-materials-fly/20171109/ Strong price gains in the minerals used in lithium batteries are seeing some listed firms shine. A former Saudi Arabian oil minister recently quipped “the stone age didn’t end for a lack of stone”. His implication was that the oil age may end before we run out of oil; and if you look at oil prices over the last couple of years, you may be inclined to agree. With oil falling, the prices of the components of lithium-ion batteries have been rallying strongly. Lithium-ion batteries are some of the most energy dense batteries in common use, which means they are perfect for mobile energy store, such as the batteries in an electric vehicle. Commodities like lithium, cobalt, nickel, and graphite are all important in the production of lithium-ion batteries, and they have thus enjoying strong price gains in recent history; as an increase in battery production has led to the demand of these minerals sometimes outstripping the supply.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/eu-electric-car-production-china-close-gap-european-union-tech-a8043406.html Electric-car production in the European Union will get a spur on Wednesday when EU regulators act to close a technological gap with China by seeking stricter emission curbs on manufacturers such as Volkswagen and Fiat Chrysler. Battery gt Graphite will be in huge demand.

Just out of interest. let's have a quick vote, who thinks we should have a name change?

http://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/market_reports/186865/armadale-capital-shines-on-excellent-drill-results-from-mahenge-liandu-186865.html Armadale Capital PLC (LON:ACP) was the afternoon’s big riser after the Africa-focused natural resources investor reported more “excellent” drilling results from its Mahenge Liandu Graphite Project in Tanzania. The company struck graphite mineralisation in 24 of the 28 holes it drilled, with several returning “exceptionally high-grade intercepts”. Those included 15 metres at 14% total graphitic content (TGC) from surface, as well as 10 metres at 18.5% TGC from 16 metres below surface. Armadale said the results were expected to support an “imminent increase” of the maiden JORC resource estimate, which is expected by the end of the year. Shares rose 29% to 2p.
