  1. Slide 1: Ten reasons why Campoona is a great graphite deposit

    For personal use only ARCHER GRAPHITE Ten reasons why Campoona is a great graphite deposit Mining South Australia Conference Whyalla 26-27 November 2013 Wade Bollenhagen Exploration Manager Archer Exploration Limited 1

  2. Slide 2: Disclaimer

    Disclaimer Competent persons statement For personal use only The exploration results reported herein, insofar as they relate to mineralisation, are based on information compiled by Mr Wade Bollenhagen, Exploration Manager of Archer Exploration Limited. Mr Bollenhagen is a Member of the Australasian

  3. Slide 3: Archer Graphite - the setting

    For personal use only Archer Graphite - the setting Substantial land position (1,100km2) in graphite province. Two main deposits – Campoona and Sugarloaf plus several nearby flake occurrences. 3

  4. Slide 4: 1. Geology

    Reason 1. Geology  Graphite outcrops. For personal use only  10-50m thick highly graphitic schist.  Deep complete oxidation. • Upper Claystone - ≈5m thick clay-rich highly graphitic zone of graphite + kaolin + quartz • Upper BOCO - porous graphite + quartz + kaolin + tourmaline ± garnet ± iron ox

  5. Slide 5: 2. Grade

    Reason 2. Grade  Grade on its own gives no insight into a graphite deposit’s commerciality. For personal use only  Grade does however give a reasonable insight as to likely mining and milling costs that a deposit will have to carry.  Archer Graphite’s Campoona deposit has a JORC Resource grade of

  6. Slide 6: 3. Outstanding liberation

    Reason 3. Outstanding liberation  Prolonged intense lateritic weathering has resulted in high natural liberation of For personal use only graphite from clay + quartz ± tourmaline ± garnet ± muscovite gangue. Typical high purity Campoona graphite concentrate prior to re-cleaning. Outstanding natural

  7. Slide 7: 4. Recovery

    Reason 4. Recovery  Recoveries through all three Campoona geological horizons ≥90%. For personal use only  All ore horizons can be processed using the same method and equipment.  Rigorous bench-scale testing has defined key processing parameters.  Bulk flotation tests emulate bench-scale results

  8. Slide 8: 5. High purity, high value products

    Reason 5. High purity, high value products Stylised Graphite Price (US$/t) vs Grade Curve For personal use only $40,000 $30,000 Archer’s Graphite Price (US$/t) expected product range $20,000 $10,000 $0 80% 85% 90% 95% 97% 99% 99.50% 99.95% “Prices for flake graphite of 99.0% and higher in particle s

  9. Slide 9: 6. Repeatability

    Reason 6. Repeatability Rigorous bench-scale metallurgical testing undertaken For personal use only  35 bench scale tests completed on samples across the length, breadth and depth of the deposit.  High purity graphite concentrate repeatable for all three geologic horizons representing the uppermos

  10. Slide 10: 7. Product optionality

    Reason 7. Product optionality Summary of products from Archer graphite For personal use only Graphite materials Prepared Prepared Products Semi-products Graphene Graphene oxide Nanosheets sheets Graphene Campoona Hydrogels Graphite conc Marketing Studies Graphite Graphene Graphene Flakes (92%) sheet

  11. Slide 11: 7. Product optionality (ctnd)

    Reason 7. Product optionality (ctnd) Graphene products from Archer graphite For personal use only Graphene from raw Archer graphite Thermally intercalated graphite from medium-grade 92%C Campoona concentrate Marketing Studies Archer graphite concentrates Chemically intercalated graphite Thermally in

  12. Slide 12: 8. Exploration

    Reason 8. Exploration Airborne EM and reconnaissance drilling has identified strike For personal use only extensions and fold repetitions of the target graphitic schist  <2% of 1,100km2 tenure explored to date.  EM identified several possible graphite bodies along strike from the known graphite oc

  13. Slide 13: 9. Land

    Reason 9. Land  Campoona Shaft and Sugarloaf both occur on freehold pastoral land. For personal use only  Archer owns Sugarloaf (1,403 acres) and has binding HoA over sufficient land at Campoona Shaft for mining to proceed.  Early land purchases has secured access and mitigated land risk associat

  14. Slide 14: 10. AAA Mining jurisdiction

    Reason 10. AAA Mining jurisdiction Australia is a stable democracy with robust and transparent laws governing For personal use only mineral ownership, mineral exploration and mining.  All Minerals are vested in the Crown.  Mineral Title covers all Minerals.  All States have longstanding Mining Le

  15. Slide 15: Fully funded work plan

    Fully funded work plan Campoona Shaft Drilling For personal use only Resource Drilling Exploration & Central Campoona Drilling Metallurgical Characterisation Resource Estimation Campoona Shaft Resource Estimation Campoona Central Environmental Baseline Studies Marketing Studies Community Consultatio

  16. Slide 16: Archer Graphite's comparative advantages

    Archer Graphite’s comparative advantages Quality: Expect base product ≥98% C. Purification remains untested beyond basic re-cleaning.  For personal use only  Recovery : Excellent recoveries for all geologic horizons.  Grade: 12.3%C places Campoona in the upper quartile of emerging graphite projec
