TORONTO, Nov. 26, 2013
/PRNewswire/ -- Trio Resources, Inc. ("Trio" or the
"Company") (OTCBB: TRII; www.trioresources.com) has joined a
consortium that is researching ways to take arsenic, a waste
product commonly found in mines across Canada, and use it in the production of solar
panels. Trio will work with scientists in Europe and North
America to develop a replacement for the silicon in
photovoltaic cells with Gallium arsenide ("GaAs"). The Company will
contribute to the consortium by developing environmental
improvements to capture arsenic from its ore bodies that can be
used in the development of the GaAs.
Shortcomings in silicon-based technologies have prompted
researchers to study alternative semiconductors that could provide
faster and lower power devices. GaAs, a compound made from gallium
and arsenic, offers a series of advantages over current technology,
including requiring less voltage to enter saturation, providing
better photo response and electron mobility and generating a wider
operating temperature.
Duncan Reid, CEO of Trio
Resources, Inc., commented: "We are excited to be a part of this
innovative project, which seeks to take arsenic, a potentially
hazardous material commonly found in tailings ponds, and develop it
into a useful product that could contribute to the proliferation of
clean energy. Our decision to join the consortium reflects our
commitment to finding innovative ways to monetize our Duncan-Kerr
Property. We look forward to providing updates as this exciting
research unfolds while continuing to seek new ways to maximize
shareholder value."
