Slide 14: What is Graphite?
What is Graphite? Graphite is a form of carbon; Graphite has self-lubricating and dry lubricating properties; Graphite is the most thermal and electrical conductor of non- metals; China is the world’s largest producer of Graphite (~70%), however supply is erratic due to seasonal mine shutdow
Slide 15: Graphite Pricing
Graphite Pricing 2 forms of marketable graphite – flake (40%) and amorphous (60%) Higher prices attained by delivering a concentrate with high purity and large flake size Growing demand from traditional usages plus increased demand from new industrial applications and green energy technologies
Slide 16: Graphite Logistics
Graphite Logistics Simple mining and metallurgy Conventional hardrock mining and flotation processing Crush, grind, float to produce a concentrate 180km from Bulk export port facilities at Mtwara Syrah Resources Nachingwea project – historical metallurgical testwork demonstrates 98% graphi
Slide 17: Uses of Graphite?
Uses of Graphite? Lithium ion batteries; Fuel cells; Casings for electronics ; Lubricants; Dry cell batteries; Brake pads; Refractory bricks; Carbon steel forging;
