Great Lakes Graphite Inc. (TSXV:GLK,OTC Pink:GLKIF) announced that recomissionning preparations at the Matheson Micronization Facility are nearing completion.
As quoted in the press release:

The three 300HP micronization units were returned to the Facility this week following their refurbishment by the original equipment manufacturer, Classifier Milling Systems, in Orangeville, Ontario. The units were modified to include additional grinding hammers and to be capable of faster rotation in order to achieve the very fine micron grades GLK will be producing for its North American customers.
In addition, the Company took delivery this week of a 27600 volt to 600 volt transformer which will enable the connection of the Facility to the electrical grid.

Jerry Janik, COO of Great Lakes Graphite, commented:

With the mills back in place and now capable of high-speed production, the Company is now positioned to complete all of the tasks required through re-commissioning of the Facility.   Design of plant operations and plans for refurbishing and restarting the mill are being done in accordance with lean principles thereby positioning the project for early success and maximum efficiency. The first shipment of -100 mesh +95% C(g) graphite feedstock is currently at the facility and will be processed upon receiving the Air & Noise permit amendment.
