Graphenes bonding forces in graphite are widely known as an example of the van der Waals forces. Well-known experimental facts relative to graphite negate this. A comparison of physical properties of graphite and molecular crystals and metals is shown. A model of dominant weak metallic bonding forces between graphenes is proposed. Brief theoretical background to the model is given.
