Homerun Resources Inc. Achieves Breakthrough in Silicon Carbide Synthesis with UC Davis, Leveraging Brazilian High-Purity Silica & Graphite Resources

Homerun Resources Inc. (TSXV: HMR) (OTCQB: HMRFF) ("Homerun" or the "Company") is very pleased to announce that our research partners at UC Davis Materials Science and Engineering have successfully synthesized Silicon Carbide (SiC) with proprietary methods involving electrically generated heat and energy using Homerun's raw Belmonte silica sand and Bahia Graphite Corporations (BGC) raw graphite from Bahia, Brazil.

Silicon Carbide is a critical material in modern industries, prized for its exceptional hardness, thermal stability, and semiconductor properties used in electric vehicle powertrains, renewable energy systems and 5G infrastructure and industrial robotics. By having access to both high-purity silica sand (SiO₂) and graphite (C) from nearby Brazilian deposits, Homerun bypasses supply chain vulnerabilities that are currently affecting global SiC producers. The Acheson process, used for the great majority of commercial SiC, requires precisely these inputs.

The journey from raw materials to functional SiC components involve two distinct phases: synthesis and final product manufacturing. While synthesis focuses on producing the base material, final product manufacturing tailors its structure and properties for specific applications.

Further milestones from the continuing R&D Program for 2025, are as follows:

Silicon Carbide - R&D Phase     Milestones to the End of 2025
       
Phase 1: Synthesis to Silicon Carbide   Achieved in first half of 2025
       
Phase 2: Pre-Treatment & Densification   Sintering to densify the mixture & optimize for thermal conductivity and porosity
       
Phase 3: Laser Synthesis   Perform laser irradiation in order to tune parameters (wavelength, power, scan rate) for phase formation
       
Phase 4: Material Characterization   XRD, SEM, Raman to confirm SiC phase and structure and compare with known β-SiC and α-SiC standards
       
Phase 5: Optimization & Scaling   Repeat synthesis to improve yield, purity, and crystal structure and begin scale-up feasibility assessment
       
Phase 6: Application Testing   Electrical/thermal performance tests to begin development of integration into device prototypes

 

Brian Leeners, CEO of Homerun stated, "We extend our gratitude to the UC Davis Materials and Engineering team for achieving this pivotal milestone in our strategic mission to develop innovative processing methods for advanced materials. Global critical material supply chains face increasing pressures, including competition with former suppliers. To succeed, we must pioneer cost-effective technologies that align with clean energy principles. Our collaboration with UC Davis continues to deliver groundbreaking solutions, now combining Homerun's high-purity silica and Bahia Graphite's premium graphite to redefine industry standards."
