"The Okanjande graphite project
was in production from August
2017 until October 2018 when
previous owners placed it on
care and maintenance due to
start-up issues with the
processing plant which did not
meet design specifications"

Aukam Graphite, "this historic mine brought prosperity to the Karas region in
previous decades. Its first operational phase began in 1940 and it remained in
production for 16 years, ceasing operations in 1956. The second phase of
activity began in 1964 and the mine remained active unit 1974. The Aukam
Graphite Project is currently in preparation for phase three of its life, with
commercial production anticipated to commence 2023. Phase three will allow
the mine to realize its full potential with an estimated 22,000 tonnes per
annum of high purity, vein graphite production"

The flake type graphite contains ordered graphite crystals of various sizes disseminated in the host rock. The flake graphite
deposits develop from the regional metamorphism of carbon-containing sedimentary rocks inmobile metamorphic belts such
as the Damara Orogenic Belt in Namibia. The Okanjande Graphite Deposit, Black Range Graphite and Tippy’s Graphite are
known flake type graphite deposits within the Damara Supergroup found in the metasediments of the Nosib and Swakop
Groups (c.f Table 1, 3, 4).
