Graphite One's Supply Chain Strategy
With
the United States
currently 100 percent import dependent for natural and synthetic graphite, Graphite One is
developing a complete U.S.-based, advanced graphite supply chain solution anchored by the Graphite Creek
deposit, recognized by the US Geological Survey as the largest graphite deposit in the U.S. "and among the largest
in the world." The Graphite One Project plan includes an advanced synthetic graphite material and battery anode
material manufacturing plant located in
Warren, Ohio
. The plan also includes a recycling facility to reclaim graphite
and the other battery materials, to be co-located at the
Ohio
site, the third link in Graphite One's non-linear circular
economy strategy.
About Graphite One Inc.
GRAPHITE ONE INC. continues to develop its Graphite One Project (the "Project") to become an American
producer of high-grade anode materials that is integrated with a domestic graphite resource. The Project is
proposed as a vertically integrated enterprise to mine, process and manufacture anode active materials primarily for
the lithium
ion electric vehicle battery market. As set forth in the Company's 2022 Pre-Feasibility Study, graphite
mineralization mined from the Company's Graphite Creek Property, situated on the
Seward Peninsula
about 60
kilometers north of
Nome, Alaska
, would be processed into concentrate at an adjacent processing plant. Natural
and artificial graphite anode active materials and other value
added graphite products would be manufactured from
the concentrate and other materials at the Company's proposed advanced graphite materials manufacturing facility
located in northeastern
Ohio
. The Company intends to make a production decision on the Project upon the
completion of a Feasibility Study.
