Triton Minerals Ltd. (ASX:TON) announced the successful completion of trial commercial-scale production of high-strength composite graphite materials and fire-resistant polystyrene foam using Triton Mozambique Graphite (TMG) from its Nicanda Hill project.
Highlights include:
- Successful commercial production trials using Nicanda Hill concentrate (TMG100)
- High strength composite graphite sheets produced
- Fire-resistant graphitic insulating foam produced
Brad Boyle, CEO and managing director of Triton, commented:
Triton is pleased to confirm the successful manufacture, of the first of a broad range of enhanced graphite products using graphite concentrate sourced exclusively from Nicanda Hill.
Earlier this year Triton executed a 20 year off-take agreement with YXGC, worth US$2 billion and joint ventures for factories in China and Mozambique to produce enhanced graphite products. These successful production trials represent another important milestone in demonstrating the commercial viability of TMG and validating Triton’s vertically-integrated business model.
TMG has now produced a full range of high grade flake graphite concentrates, graphite composite material, graphite sheets and foils, spherical graphite and graphene. This places Triton in a unique position to supply a broad and diverse market.
Triton currently has the largest known graphite-vanadium deposit in the world, which provides longevity and certainty of supply. We are confident that the high quality of TMG and the support of the Mozambique Government will allow Triton to rapidly advance towards production.
