About Applied Graphite Technologies

Applied Graphite Technologies is developing the Queens

Mine Complex

in

Sri Lanka

. The QMC is on

private land in the heart of the vein graphite district, with historical workings and vein graphite

outcrops. Vein graphite is naturally high grade (+95% carbon content in the ground) and does not

require primary processing. Testing of vein graphite in lithium-ion battery anodes has shown very

high capacities, performing better than synthetic graphite. Natural vein graphite has a far superior

ESG footprint than synthetic and is cheaper without compromising performance.
