Graphite mine reopening going wellLION MOVES CLOSER TO PUTTING GRAPHITE PROJECT BACK INTO PRODUCTION Production was suspended by the previous owners due to non-economic reasons. With the deposits only partially mined and now ready for larger-scale exploitation with modern production techniques. The deposits lie within the graphitic horizons of the highly prospective Manampotsy formation and are associated with topographic highs that are exploited via free digging of lateritic ore and open-pit mining, providing lower-cost exploitation without need for blasting. The graphite mineralization on the project appears within well-defined north-south belts with interbedded graphite-rich friable layers. The layers of interest have continuity of several kilometres and exhibit only shallow dip.
