Vancouver – October 01, 2026 -- Graphite One Inc. (TSXV: GPH) (OTCQX: GPHOF) has created a new advanced systems division targeting graphite applications in defense, space and national security markets, while disclosing roughly US$1.58 million in new investor-relations marketing contracts.
Graphite One creates new division to push graphite into defense and space applications
The division will serve as the Company's platform for developing next-generation graphite and graphene technologies beyond battery and energy storage systems. CEO Anthony Huston said the move reflects the recognition that "graphite and graphene are transformational materials in evolving technologies relevant to the energy/defense/national security and space sectors."
Company discloses $1.58 million in investor marketing agreements with three firms
Graphite One signed agreements with Global One Media Group, Emerging Growth LLC (doing business as TDM Financial), and Frontier Media Inc. to raise its profile among institutional and retail investors. Global One will provide digital marketing, branding and social media content for six months at a cost of US$45,000. TDM Financial will deliver video content and infographics over seven months for US$35,000. Frontier Media will run online marketing campaigns, advertisements and landing pages for six months at US$250,000 per month, totaling US$1.5 million, with an option to extend. None of the three agencies hold shares or options in Graphite One, and compensation is not tied to performance. The agreements remain subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange under Policy 3.4.
Graphite Creek deposit in Alaska anchors Graphite One's integrated U.S. supply chain
The United States is currently 100% import-dependent for natural graphite. Graphite One's strategy centers on the Graphite Creek deposit in Alaska, identified by the U.S. Geological Survey as the largest graphite deposit in the United States and among the largest globally. The plan calls for mining at Graphite Creek, transport via the Port of Nome, and processing into advanced graphite and anode materials at a planned synthetic graphite active anode material manufacturing facility in Ohio. A co-located recycling facility to recover graphite and other battery materials is also under consideration, subject to project financing.
