A BURGEONING MARKET
“Graphite is an important industrial mineral which finds applications in almost every facet of
manufacturing including electronics, atomic energy, hot metal processing, friction, coatings,
                            aerospace, powder metallurgy, etc.”

 CRITICAL SUPPLY / DEMAND FUNDAMENTALS
 ▪ Classified as a critical resource by the US and
   EU
 ▪ In 2017, China accounted for ~70% of the world’s
   total production (source: Roskill)
 ▪ New sources outside of China are considered a
   necessity, especially hi-tech graphite products
   like high purity and expandable graphite

 FAVOURABLE PRICING FORECAST
 ▪ The global graphite market demand is expected to
   cause upward price pressure
 ▪ Global favour for ex China sources                                          (Source: Fast Markets)
