About Tirupati Graphite
Tirupati Graphite Plc is a specialist flake graphite company that places a special emphasis on “green” applications of flake graphite, including renewable energy, energy efficiency, energy storage, and thermal management and is committed to ensuring its operations are sustainable as well.
The Company’s operations include primary mining and processing in Madagascar, where the Company operates two key projects, Sahamamy and Vatomina. With the start of commercial production of its latest 18,000 tpa plant at Sahamamy in March 2023, it now has an installed capacity of 30,000 tpa high-quality flake graphite concentrate with up to 97% purity in Madagascar, planned to increase to 84,000 tpa as per the Company’s modular medium-term development plan.
On 1 April 2023 the Company completed the acquisition of Suni Resources SA, Mozambique, whose two main assets are
- the Montepuez Project which holds the mining licensee over an area of 3,667 hectares with JORC 2012 defined reserves & resources of almost 120 million tonnes; plus
- the Balama Central Project, which has a mining license over 1,543 hectares with JORC 2012 defined mineral reserves and resources of 33 million tonnes. Both projects have licenses permitting build-out to an annual production of 100,000 and 58,000 tons of flake graphite respectively.
TG believes that adding these projects provides the Company with sufficient resources to achieve its ambition of satisfying 8% of the estimated global flake graphite demand – of around 5 million tons per annum – by 2030.
