CKR Carbon Ships Samples to End Users

CKR Carbon Corp. (TSXV:CKR,OTC Pink:CBULF) announced that it’s shipped concentrate and lump samples from its Namibia-based Aukam vein graphite project to end users.
As quoted in the press release:

CKR Carbon has been requested to send samples to graphite end users for them to test the suitability of Aukam lump graphite material in their value added applications. Concentrate samples grading 96.13% Cg (carbon as graphite) were sent to two graphite consumers, one based in Europe and the other in North America. One of the companies also requested a sample of the lump graphite to conduct its own metallurgical test work. These samples came from the company’s screened stockpile, which graded an average of 42% Cg. Lump graphite is currently only mined in Sri-Lanka, and an alternative source of lump graphite at commercial scale is important to end users in order to diversify supply risk.
Several batches of samples, including those to the end users, have recently been sent from Namibia and the required export permits were granted to the company without hesitation.

Roger Moss, CEO of CKR Carbon, commented:

The sending of samples to end users is a direct result of CKR’s efforts to market the lump graphite that occurs at our Aukam project. We look forward to further discussions with end users as we work with them to provide a high quality product suited to their needs.
