Nov. 7, 2017 - SRG Graphite Inc. today announced that SRG’s subsidiary, SRG Graphite International Inc. (“SRGI”) and Great Lakes Graphite Inc. have executed a Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU”) whereby the Companies agree to work towards negotiating a supply agreement from SRG’s Lola Deposit located in Guinea, West Africa.
Highlights
The MoU calls for the Companies to work towards establishing a potential supply agreement. For GLK, the agreement represents the opportunity to expand the number of product offerings and enter new markets. The MoU specifies that the Companies will seek to negotiate an agreement for the annual supply of between 5,000 and 20,000 tons of natural flake graphite concentrate.
SRG is developing a high-quality graphite deposit in Guinea, West Africa. The Lola Graphite deposit is located approximately 1,000 kilometers east of Conakry, the capital of the Republic of Guinea. The first 20 meters or so of the deposit are well weathered (lateralized), freeing graphite flakes from the silicate gangue and thus allowing for easy grinding and optimal recovery of all large and jumbo flakes. The graphite mineralization continues at depth within the non-weathered sheared gneiss.
Metallurgy
The arrangement can provide a potential source of high quality large and jumbo flake graphite that will enable the GLK to expand the number of high value products that can be offered to their customers. GLK’s CEO Paul Gorman said, “We are very excited to be working with SRG Graphite. They are an extremely capable group that is developing a highly attractive project. Due to the indications that we are getting from customers as we progress through our product qualifications, we understand that it is imperative for us to be able to demonstrate that we have access to the supply chains required to service very large customers.”
