Sunrise Resources reports back on successful concrete test

(Sharecast News) - Natural resources outfit Sunrise Resources has seen a successful concrete test be completed by an unnamed "major international cement/ready mix company" using its natural pozzolan.
Sunrise told investors on Thursday the test was reported to have evaluated the behaviour of concrete made with the ingredient, which replaced 20% of the cement in the concrete mix.

The AIM-listed group said the test was benchmarked against an identical test using a commercially available pozzolan and that its product "performed well with good strength, low shrinkage and good setting times"

Sunrise highlighted the importance of the test as it demonstrated the value of its product as a replacement for fly ash in the large end-use ready-mix concrete market.

Executive chairman Patrick Cheetham said: "We are releasing this news to highlight that, behind the scenes and out of the spotlight, the company is actively engaged in a number of ongoing testing programmes with a number of international cement companies and ready-mix companies that have large operations in the western United States and which are potential customers and partners for our future production of natural pozzolan from the CS Project."

As of 1010 GMT, Sunrise shares had climbed 6.27% to 0.12p.
