Further, Big North Graphite has been informed that maintenance and repair work to the El Tejon mill can begin immediately.

We are pleased to welcome Gestion Ambiental Omega’s expertise to this very important aspect in Big North’s progress and development.

The projected timeframe fits well with Tetra Tech’s estimate of 6 months to refurbish Line 1 of the mill.
