Figure on 92 to 95% TGC for this forecast. (Higher % TGC will yield much higher prices, of course.)

These numbers (except maybe the SJ) are probably more realistic than some of the ones I have seen by graphite companies' internal estimates, PEA's, etc.

What I really find humorous is that almost all of these juniors have no graphite to sell - either next year, or for the foreseeable future!

But somehow, they all claim that they will soon dominate the ______ (fill in the blank) graphite segment/market... with no commercial mining permits.

Divine intervention, perhaps?
