Avoiding dendrite damage is the most sig- nificant hurdle in development and commercialization of zinc-air flow battery systems. Phase II design and testing has been completed and final commercial design is now underway for mass production of its scalable 20kWh capacity zinc-air mass storage battery. ZincNyx's technology comprises three main subsys- tems using zinc and air to store energy in the form of zinc particles. When the system is delivering power, the zinc particles combine with oxygen drawn from the surrounding air. When the system is recharging, zinc particles are regenerated and oxygen is returned to atmospheric air. Unlike conventional batteries, which have a fixed energy and power ratio, ZincNyx's technology uses a fuel tank system that offers flexible energy and power ratios and scalability. The storage capacity is directly tied to the fuel tank size and the quantity of charged zinc fuel, making scalability a major advantage of the flow battery system. Another major advantage of the zinc-air flow battery is its ability to charge and discharge simultaneously and at different maximum charge or dis- charge rates because each of the charge and discharge circuits is independent. The technology does not emit greenhouse gases or pollutants. ZincNyx has secured over 20 patents to date. n COBALT continued from page 39 GREEN TECHNOLOGY continued from page 67 solicitation to buy or sell securities.

The company intends to use this information to prepare a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate. Planning and budgeting has been completed for a grid-based reverse circulation drill program to collect representative samples and dimensions of the pile. While not in the Cobalt Camp, the Global Energy Metals Corp.'s [GEMC- TSXV; 5GE1-FSE] Werner Lake cobalt project is of interest. It is located near the Ontario-Manitoba border in the Kenora Mining District. The Werner Lake Cobalt mine operated in the 1940s as a high-grade source of cobalt. Since then, helicopter-borne geophysics, some 22,860 metres of diamond drilling, several resource calculations and approximately 258 metres of underground ramping, drifting and raising into the West Cobalt Deposit have been completed. In addition, a 10,000-tonne bulk sample was completed as well as metallurgical bench test milling and chemical analysis on the mineralized material. Former operator, Canmine Resources, completed several preliminary feasibility studies, along with economic modeling studies, but filed for bank- ruptcy before completing a definitive feasibility study. A work program including diamond drilling (+3,500 m) to further upgrade resource categories and extend the mineralized envelope, as well as additional metallurgical work and underground chip sampling has been recommended for the project. n FOR SALE Small past-producing gold mine East Thurlow Island, British Columbia Down-dip of vein never drilled. $10,000 Call Ellsworth Dickson 604-484-3800
