Graphite industry veteran joins Focus Graphite to accelerate the company's operational, purification, production, and commercial readiness.Ottawa, Ontario--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - November 19, 2025) - Focus Graphite Inc. (TSXV: FMS) (OTCQB: FCSMF) (FSE: FKC0) ("Focus" or the "Company"), a leading developer of high-grade flake graphite deposits and innovator of next-generation lithium-ion battery technology, is pleased to announce the appointment of Richard Pearce as Strategic Advisor.This appointment follows the Company's November 3, 2025 announcement for the conditional award of $14.1 million from Natural Resources Canada ("NRCan") under the Global Partnership Initiative ("GPI"). The funding supports the launch of Canada's first chemical-free electro-thermal graphite purification demonstration plant, a key milestone in advancing the country's critical minerals production capabilities and supply chain.Mr. Pearce is a licensed professional engineer, economist, and senior executive with more than thirty (30) years of experience managing, financing, and delivering complex industrial and resource projects across the Americas. He brings deep expertise in the energy transition and critical minerals, combining technical, financial, and operational leadership to build and grow successful companies.As founder and former Chief Executive Officer of South Star Battery Metals Corp. ("South Star"), Mr. Pearce led the development of one of the first new graphite mines in decades to be permitted, financed, and brought into commercial production. Under his leadership, South Star advanced from exploration to full operation, gaining valuable insight into mine development, local community engagement, and sustainable graphite production in Latin America. He has directed multidisciplinary teams on large-scale mining and industrial projects with capital expenditures exceeding US $1 billion, spanning precious and base metals, industrial minerals, and fertilizers.A Qualified Person (QP) under Canada's National Instrument (NI) 43-101 standards, Mr. Pearce brings a rare combination of modern, hands-on graphite production experience and regulatory expertise. His addition to the Focus team enhances the Company's ability to de-risk and accelerate the transition from development to production while maintaining technical and environmental standards."No two graphite deposits are the same," said Dean Hanisch, CEO of Focus Graphite. "Each deposit has its own characteristics, and we wanted someone who has been through it, who has figured out what works and what doesn't, and truly understands what it takes to put a graphite mine into production. Richard is one of the few people today who has done this successfully, and his experience will help us avoid costly trial and error and ensure our demonstration plant reflects real world operating conditions."In his role as Strategic Advisor, Mr. Pearce will lead the optimization of Focus Graphite's upstream operations — ensuring that ore processing, flotation, and concentrate recovery are fully aligned with the Company's downstream purification strategy as it moves into the demonstration phase.His immediate focus will be overseeing upcoming ore-processing campaigns for the Lac Knife Project, evaluating ore behaviour through grinding, flotation, and concentration to define the optimal equipment selection, process-flow design, and material-handling methods required for larger-scale production. The resulting test work will generate the empirical data needed to maximize graphite recovery and product quality.In parallel, Focus is preparing to launch its first pilot plant program for the Lac Tetepisca Project, where Mr. Pearce will play a central role in assessing ore performance and designing the associated flowsheet. His involvement across both projects ensures a unified, evidence-based operational strategy rather than reliance on theoretical models.As Focus progresses toward permitting, construction, and commercialization, Mr. Pearce's mandate is expected to expand to include offtake partnership development, operational scaling, and overall production readiness, supporting the Company's plan to build a fully integrated mine-to-market graphite supply chain in Quebec."I have taken a graphite project from early exploration through construction and commercial production," said Richard Pearce. "Along the way, I have learned where the real challenges lie — in logistics, processing, scaling, commercialization, and the countless details that only emerge once you build and operate a mine. Those lessons are scarce and invaluable in the West, and I look forward to helping Focus Graphite move efficiently toward production."Hanisch added, "There is a big difference between theory and real-world performance. Richard will help us bridge that gap, ensuring that our demonstration facility and future mining operations are designed for practical, field-tested performance. His experience will be key to de-risking our path forward."As part of his engagement, Mr. Pearce has been granted 50,000 stock options, exercisable at C$0.60 per share for five (5) years under the Company's incentive stock option plan, subject to regulatory approval, and may also receive cash compensation for certain advisory services.Qualified Person The technical content disclosed in this news release was reviewed and approved by Richard Pearce, PE, President of Brasil Insight Capital LLC., a consultant to the Company, and a qualified person as defined under National Instrument NI-43-101.About Focus Graphite Advanced Materials Inc.

HONG KONG, Nov 19, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – As part of the World Maritime Merchants Forum 2025, the Intelligent Ship Building Thematic Forum, hosted by China Merchants Industry Group(CMI) and organized by CM Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (00206.HK, CM Energy), commenced in Hong Kong on November 18. During the event, CM Energy officially launched its green methanol project and obtained the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC EU) on the same day. This milestone marks the official entry of CM Energy’s green methanol into the EU market, laying a solid foundation for its global expansion.CM Energy’s green methanol achieves a more than 70% reduction in greenhouse gas emission intensity compared to conventional fossil-based methanol. The project’s first phase boasts an annual production capacity of 20,000 to 30,000 tons—enough to power two 24,000 TEU container ships for a full year—with deliveries scheduled to begin in December 2025. Following technological upgrades, annual output is expected to reach 60,000 tons.As the global shipping industry's transition toward low-carbon and net-zero emissions becomes a universal consensus, green methanol has emerged as a core option for shipping decarbonization. A representative in charge of CM Energy stated that the company has partnered with Shandong Energy Group to build a green methanol plant in Jining, Shandong. By retrofitting existing coal-to-methanol infrastructure and adopting a co-processing route that incorporates biomass, the project not only preserves existing production capacity but also significantly enhances GHG reduction performance—offering a viable solution to the high-cost transition challenge faced by traditional chemical plants.Currently, all links of the project, including raw material collection, biochar production, and green methanol synthesis, have successfully passed the rigorous ISCC certification, making it the world's first green methanol project to obtain full-process certification in accordance with ISCC Co-processing Version 2.0 Guidance. The certification not only opens up global market channels for domestic green methanol but also provides a replicable path for low-carbon transition of traditional chemical enterprises worldwide through an asset-light, high-compliance co-processing model.Wu Sichuan, Chairman of China Merchants Industry Group,  highlighted that green technology is one of the three strategic emerging sectors under the Group’s "Third Pioneering Endeavor" initiative. China Merchants Industry will serve as both a "manufacturing scenario implementation and equipment innovation platform," while CM Energy will take the lead in green energy equipment and supply. China Merchants Industry is committed to becoming a cost-leading, green technology-driven manufacturing enterprise driven by technological innovation, led by digital transformation, and based on lean management, contributing to the high-quality development of the shipbuilding industry and supporting the accelerated construction of a transportation power and a maritime power.Also during the event, Bureau Veritas, an internationally recognized certification body, awarded the ISCC EU certification certificate for green methanol to CM Energy. The certification ceremony was attended by distinguished guests including Zheng Nanfeng, Professor of Xiamen University and Director of Tan Kah Kee Innovation Laboratory; Alexander Döll, CEO of the Global Methanol Fuel Association; Nicolas Brown, Corporate Affairs Director of Bureau Veritas; Mei Xianzhi, General Manager of CMI; Li Hongyuan, Deputy General Manager of the Strategic Development Department (Science and Technology Innovation Department) of China Merchants Group; Mei Zhonghua, Deputy General Manager of China Merchants Industry and Chairman of CM Energy; and Zhang Zhen, Independent Director of CM Energy.As an important platform for China Merchants Group's green technology development, CM Energy is stepping up its layout in the green energy value chain—with a focus on hydrogen, methanol, and ammonia—in both equipment manufacturing and energy supply services. The company strives to become a leading integrated service provider for marine green energy and equipment in China. Moving forward, CM Energy will continue to collaborate with partners to expand green methanol production capacity, promote the development of a complete green methanol industrial chain —from feedstock to bunkering—advancing the widespread adoption of green methanol in the global market.
