American Graphite Technologies Inc. ("AGIN" or the "Company")
(OTCBB: AGIN) and (BERLIN: A8G) (WKN:A1KBDQ/ISIN:US02640K1079) is
pleased to announce a corporate update.
The Company is pleased to announce the completion of a recent
funding totaling $145,000 of which $50,000 was a draw down under
our financing agreement and $95,000 was by way of a units private
placement offering.
The Company is also currently negotiating another round of
equity financing and hopes to have terms agreed to shortly.
The Company has been informed that its 3-D printing project
("P600") should be finalized for all regulatory approvals in the
next short while and expects to start the project shortly. P600 is
a project funded by AGIN and administered by the Kharkiv Institute
of Physics and Technology in Kharkiv, Ukraine. The project will
look at the possibility of using graphene as a source for 3-D
printing. The 3-d printing market is expected to rapidly expand to
5.2 billion by 2020
(http://www.forbes.com/sites/tjmccue/2012/03/27/3d-printing-industry-will-reach-3-1-billion-worldwide-by-2016/).
The Company expects to complete some early exploration work to
define drill targets on its 100% owned mineral property, in a known
graphite area of Quebec, Canada. The Company hopes to undertake the
work this fall subject to funding.
The Company's licensing partner, CTI Nanotechnologies LLC
("CTI") is progressing with its graphene/bucky paper ("paper")
project and hopes to have information out shortly with respect to
some recent tests completed on its paper. CTI is also working to
get its production line setup and preliminary testing completed in
the next 2-3 months.
About the American Graphite Technologies Inc.
and CTI Technologies LLC Agreement On January 25th, 2013, the
Company announced it has entered into a licensing agreement with a
private US company CTI Nanotechnologies LLC ("CTI") to further the
development and commercialization of Graphene Paper. American
Graphite has provided its initial funding as laid out in the
agreement with CTI and will provide updates as they occur. CTI is
working on the development and commercialization of Graphene/Bucky
Paper. The initial funding received by CTI from the Company will be
used to acquire test and manufacturing equipment to enhance CTI's
existing facility located in Vermont with the goal of developing a
prototype production machine that makes Graphene Paper in larger
and more affordable sizes than currently available.

About American Graphite Technologies Inc.
American Graphite Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: AGIN) is a mineral
exploration and technology development company that is listed on a
US Stock Exchange where the Company's ticker symbol is AGIN and on
the Berlin Stock Exchange under the following symbol: A8G
(WKN:A1KBDQ/ISIN:US02640K1079). By concentrating on securing
graphite mining opportunities and the commercialization of graphene
specific proprietary technology methods, management is seeking to
bring profitable opportunities and maximize shareholder value.
Graphene has been described as the "miracle material" of the 21st
Century and is believed to be stronger than steel and more
conductive than copper while being flexible, making it plausible as
a replacement over silicon possibly leading to thinner, faster,
cheaper, more flexible devices including power sources. Since
graphene comes from the carbon atom it is abundant and cheap. In
2010 the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Andre Geim and
Konstantin Novoselov for groundbreaking experiments regarding
graphene. Advances in alternative energy technologies are driving
demand for strategic metals like graphite that have recently
evolved from industrial demands to include high tech uses as
nations focus on encouraging the development of new domestic
markets for clean and efficient energy alternatives, smart grid
infrastructure and military capabilities.
