Slide 4: What is Graphite?
What is Graphite? Graphite & diamonds are the only two naturally formed polymers of Carbon. From its longstanding and unassuming place as the “lead” in pencils; recent discoveries, consumer demands and market readiness have this simple elemental form of Carbon now poised to revolutionise the way
Slide 5: Types of Graphite
Types of Graphite Vein Vein graphite is the rarest, most valuable, and highest quality form of natural graphite. The grade of vein graphite is typically above 90% Cg, with a purity of 95-99% carbon without refining. Vein graphite has higher thermal and electrical conductivity, and it also has
Slide 6: Graphite Applications
Graphite Applications Graphite is a low density allotrope of the element carbon. This naturally occurring element is soft to touch, has a melting point of 3,600ºc and is black in colour. In its innate form it is used as a dry lubricant. The electric conductivity of graphite makes it a popular choice
Slide 7: MRL – Sri Lanka Graphite
MRL– Sri Lanka Graphite Sri Lanka is the only region in the world which produces commercial quantities of vein graphite with a carbon content greater than 90% TGC (Carbon as Graphite). MRL holds 6,300 ha of Exploration Licenses in Sri Lanka and has applied for further exploration areas surroundi

Slide 19: Why Sri Lanka?
Why Sri Lanka? Fast growing economy – GDP growth: 6.3% (2013). The Sri Lankan government is keen to promote foreign private sector investment. The Geological Survey & Mines Bureau provides excellent support services for exploration activities. MRL supplements this support with international ex
Slide 20: Increasing Graphite Demands from Growing Market
Increasing Graphite Demands from Growing Market Graphite in Lithium Ion Batteries Lithium (Li) ion batteries are smaller, lighter and more powerful than traditional batteries. In fact, there is more than 10 - 20 times more graphite than lithium, in a lithium ion battery. Graphite in Fuel Cells
Slide 21: Upgrading & Graphene
Upgrading & Graphene Through a purification process vein graphite could be upgraded to have a quality of ~99.9% Cg. Only natural graphite can be rounded and purified economically to produce spherical graphite, the feedstock for lithium ion battery electrodes. Prices for uncoated spherical grap
Slide 22: Upgrading MRL Remnant Graphite
Upgrading MRL Remnant Graphite The results achieved are very promising given this is the first round of testing and is without any process optimisation. With a single stage flotation and without any regrind a combined concentrate grade of ~95.4% TGC (96.2% TC) was recorded, as reported on the 23
Slide 23: Why Invest in MRL?
Why Invest in MRL? MRL projects are likely to have low opex, capex and discovery cost. Near term production potential from historical workings. High grade vein graphite potential. Demand for high grade graphite is firm, with the potential to increase following developments in re-chargable te
