OK, cat's got your tongue? I'll go first.

In Feb. 2015, ZEN NR'd that shaped and coated Albany graphite was "Equivalent to leading high quality natural and synthetic graphite in commercial usage", but provided no numbers or any other results to provide an objective comparison.

Months later, a Corporate Presentation was released, which provided some data, but the comparison graphite was simply a "Reference" material. It wasn't described as natural or synthetic, to be explicit. But, at least, there were numerical test results provided.

At about the same time, Focus Graphite, and Syrah Resources published LiB results. I've compiled the results in a table, for easy comparisons.

Without context data, it's rather difficult to assess what is meant by "Equivalent", n'est-ce pas? Syrah can produce their superior (to ZEN) speroidized coated graphite for US$3200/tonne, without taking into account the $500/tonne by-product credit for carburizer. Net $2700-ish.
