Hudson Receives Excellent Test Results for Paint and Clear Coating Formulations Using Its Greenland Anorthosite
23 Août 2018 - 5:17PM
Hudson Resources Inc. ("
Hudson" or the
"
Company") (TSXV: HUD, OTC: HUDRF) is pleased
to announce that it has received very favourable test results when
using the company’s anorthosite (trade named “GreenSpar”) in paint
and clear coating formulations. The testwork was completed by
Marschall Labs Inc, of Clearwater, Florida. The results indicate
that GreenSpar performs very well in paint and clear coating
applications. The paints and coatings market is very large,
and projected to grow from US$160.54 billion in 2017 to US$209.36
billion by 2022. (Source:

Samples of GreenSpar 45 (GreenSpar ground to 98%
finer than 45 microns) and GreenSpar 15 (98% finer than 15 microns)
were used to produce two paint formulations that were evaluated for
their general performance as a pigment extender. A further clear
coat (urethane) formulation using GreenSpar 15 was tested for its
clarity.
Since GreenSpar is free of crystalline silica,
it was tested alongside the industry standard, a silica-free,
nepheline syenite product. Below is a summary of the
testing:
- In the white paint formula and deep base paint formula,
GreenSpar 45 achieved very similar results to the premium nepheline
syenite product including exhibiting improved scrub resistance
properties.
- GreenSpar 15 achieved higher gloss properties in both paint
formulations, with nearly the same scrub resistance
properties.
- GreenSpar 15 achieved the same haze and clarity properties with
improved high gloss values, in the clear coating formulation.
In summary, initial independent test results
show that GreenSpar demonstrates excellent performance in paint and
clear coating applications. Full test results are available
upon request.
James Tuer, Hudson’s President stated: “These
results clearly demonstrate that our White Mountain anorthosite has
the potential to generate revenue from multiple product streams. We
have been working with a number of paint and coating companies who
are currently testing our material with the expectation that they
will translate into future off take agreements in this new market
area.”
Hudson is in the process of completing the
construction of the GreenSpar mine in Greenland with commissioning
expected to commence in the next two months. Pictures of the
construction progress can be found on the company website at
