Titan Mining (TI.TO) said the latest results across its full graphite processing chain for the Kilbourne Graphite Project confirm the company's preliminary economic assessment (PEA) design assumptions.
Locked-cycle testing for the graphite concentrator exceeded the PEA design basis of 95% concentrate grade and 90% recovery, while metallurgical test work selected for the preferred purification flowsheet for the feasibility study consistently produced battery-grade purified graphite (99.90% Fixed Carbon).
"These results confirm two things: our concentrator performs as designed in the PEA, and our downstream process turns that concentrate into battery-grade material at yields well above the industry average. Together, they de-risk the Kilbourne Feasibility Study from the mine face through to the finished product. We're now focused on completing customer qualification and advancing toward construction," said chief executive Rita Adiani.
