Snapshot	The Sarytogan Project is designated as a Strategic Project under the European Union’s Critical Raw Materials Act, validating Sarytogan’s natural graphite deposit as world class. The Pre-Feasibility Study outlined a tier-1 scale graphite development across 4 stages: • Stage 1a: 50ktpa beneficiation plant; • Stage 1b: 6ktpa thermal reactor; • Stage 2a: 2 additional thermal reactors; • Stage 2b: 7ktpa spheronising plant and a 4ktpa coating plant. The beneficiation plant is planned to produce graphite concentrate. The concentrate will either be bagged for sale or for purification. The thermal plant will be located about 120 km southwest of the mine site. Sarytogan envisages three product types: • Microcrystalline graphite at up to 90% C for traditional uses (“Micro90C”); • Ultra-High Purity Fines (UHPF) for advanced industrial use including batteries, and; • Spherical Purified Graphite (USPG and CSPG) for use in lithium-ion batteries.

Deposit type

• Metamorphic hosted
• Metamorphic

Summary:

The Sarytogan deposits are in the core of two northeast trending folds. The stratigraphy consisting of volcanic and carbonaceous sedimentary rocks. A granite pluton intruded the rocks with extensive contact metamorphism causing hornfels alteration including graphitisation of the carbonaceous rocks. Graphite-bearing black carbonaceous shale, siltstones and sandstones are overlain by grey- to dark-grey weakly carbonaceous siltstones and sandstones. Exploration has identified two zones of graphitic sediments being the Sarytogan Central and Sarytogan North graphite deposits.
