Purebase Corporation hosts team from the California Air Resources Board

by | Jul 17, 2023 | news, Press Release

IONE, CA, July 17, 2023 – Purebase Corporation (OTCPK: PUBC), (“Purebase”) a diversified mineral resource company, headquartered in Ione, California.

Purebase Corporation hosted a team from the California Air Resources Board (CARB) on Tuesday, July 11, 2023.  The agency wanted a better understanding of how Purebase Corporation’s planned rollout of its supplementary cementitious material (SCM) could help in CARB’s mission to reduce carbon emissions generated during the production of cement. CARB is tasked with formulating pathways for the cement industry to achieve lower emissions in California as stated in Senate Bill 596 (SB596.)

Scott Dockter, CEO of Purebase, stated: “We were pleased to have CARB on-site to better understand our plan to produce a metakaolin clay that can help reduce GHG emissions from the manufacturing of cement. We understand the challenges ahead but look forward to being a part of the solution.”

Phase 1 Calciner Now in Operation

by | Jul 5, 2023 | news, Press Release

Phase 1 Calciner Now in Operation

IONE, CA, July 5, 2023 – Purebase Corporation (OTCPK: PUBC), (“Purebase”) a diversified mineral resource company, headquartered in Ione, California.

Purebase Corporation is pleased to announce that its Phase 1 calciner is operational as of Wednesday, July 5th, 2023. The Phase 1 calciner will allow Purebase Corporation to produce its supplementary cementitious material (SCM). The SCM that is being produced will be sent to a lab to ensure that expected performance standards are achieved.

After successful lab testing, Purebase Corporation will be submitting its SCM to the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) for evaluation and expected inclusion on its Approved Materials List. With Caltrans approval, Purebase Corporation’s SCM could be used on any State of California construction project. Furthermore, many engineers and architects look for the Caltrans approval as a quality assurance verification. Scott Dockter, CEO of Purebase Corporation, stated: “We continue to be ahead of schedule with our Phase 1 calciner project and look forward to Caltrans evaluating our product and getting this on the market.”

Purebase Corporation receives favorable results on its metakaolin from Penn State University and Purdue University

Purebase Corporation receives favorable results on its metakaolin from Penn State University and Purdue University
IONE, CA, June 14, 2023 – Purebase Corporation (OTCPK: PUBC), (“Purebase”) a diversified mineral resource company, headquartered in Ione, California.

In recent studies conducted and released by Dr. Farshad Rajabipour at Pennsylvania State University and Dr. Jan Olek at Purdue University, Purebase’s metakaolin tested very well against other pozzolans and calcined clays from across the country. The study focused on the performance of these materials in Portland cement systems. Portland cement is the most common type of cement in general use around the world as a basic ingredient of concrete, mortar, stucco, and non-specialty grout.

In compressive strengths, the Purebase metakaolin, along with other calcined clays, showed the highest early-age values. In total heat values, the Purebase metakaolin was near the very top, and tested above all the other natural pozzolans. In the replacement of consumed carbon-hydrogen at 28 days, the Purebase metakaolin came out on top. In average compressive strength of mortar cubes at 7- and 28-day breaks, the Purebase metakaolin was also near the very top of all competing pozzolans.

These results suggest that cement that uses metakaolin in their cement design is stronger and more durable. This helps make greener concrete which reduces carbon emissions. This confirms that Purebase is on track to help California achieve its goals as mandated by California SB596.

California SB596, a Senate Bill passed in 2021, requires the California Air Resources Board (CARB) by July 1, 2023, to develop a comprehensive plan to reduce greenhouse gas emission from the cement sector.

California calcined clay operation

California calcined clay operation build-out paces SB596 implementation

Published by admin on 

Sources: Purebase Corp., Ione, Calif.; CMCM staff

Purebase Corp. anticipates a Q3 start-up for a calciner engineered to process reactive, concrete-grade metakaolin from an Ione, Calif. kaolin clay deposit. An ASTM C618-designated natural pozzolan, metakaolin presents a lower carbon alternative to portland cement, owing to the lower calcination phase heat, < 700°C versus 1,400°C+, required to drive off CO2 from calcium and other minerals. It can be used at portland cement substitution rates hovering 25 percent in concrete mixes.

Purebase holds kaolin rights at the U.S. Mine’s Ione deposit in north-central California.

The calciner installation dovetails existing Ione mine infrastructure upgrades while expediting Purebase’s ability to commercially produce metakaolin and validate the material for California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Approved Materials List inclusion. Scaled production will likewise allow expanded material testing with cement and concrete producers, plus academia.

A favorable embodied carbon profile will position Purebase metakaolin for measures tied to a California Air Resources Board greenhouse gas emissions reduction plan due July 2023. The plan is part of California Senate Bill 596, the first state legislative action of its kind geared to cement sector GHG management.

“Our calcining operations will be based in California using a resource found right here in Ione,” says Purebase CEO Scott Dockter. “Not only will our product play a role in greenhouse emissions reduction, it also won’t have to be transported from out of state, which will reduce transportation emissions as well. It will be a benefit for California and a win for us … All of our years of research and development will start paying off.
