Nachu Graphite Project
The Nachu Graphite Project is located near Ruangwa, in the south-east of Tanzania. The project is
approximately 220 km away from the Tanzanian port of Mtwara. The Nachu Project demonstrates a
large ore body with very low variation in lithology and mineralisation.
Over 82% of the graphite concentrate produced at Nachu Graphite Project is above 150 microns
which makes the product very coarse. The graphite concentrate below 300 microns will be produced
at 99%TGC which is extremely high versus the current industry standard of 94 – 96%TGC.
To date, all major mining and environmental approvals have been received and an updated Bankable
Feasibility Study was completed in September 2022 and was released on 27 September 2022.
The valuation and compensation phase has been completed along with the resettlement village and
initial infrastructure works.
