Graphite commences production of the world’s purest natural graphite:
required component of widely used lithium-ion batteries

most graphite-rich region
- CYL
represents a high potential investment backed by global demand for
graphite that enables production of vast number of products globally
Ceylon Graphite (TSX.V: CYL), a company specializing in the
exploration and production of graphite in Sri Lanka – where it holds a land
package of 121 km² with grids containing unique and comparatively higher-margin
vein graphite deposits – is on track to becoming a global player in the sector
as it has commenced the production of the world’s purest graphite. CYL operates
through two wholly owned subsidiaries, Sarcon Development (Pvt) Ltd. and JADS
Enterprises (Pvt) Ltd. At the end of 2019, Sarcon Development (Pvt) Ltd.
started commercial production – a step the company described as a milestone
towards creating a globally recognized graphite mining company with the
capacity to develop the next sites and at a faster pace.
International demand for graphite is robust and expected to
increase. With the global trend of the decarbonization of the energy storage
and transportation sector gaining increasing traction, graphite has been named
the “new oil.” The growing demand is supported by the needs of energy storage
equipment production, as well as high-quality batteries, lubricants, and
refractories. CYL’s product is certified as battery grade marketable as the
company produces some of the purest natural graphite on the planet.
With a strong management team leveraging their significant
local and Asian experience and excellent business relationships, the company
operates some of the cheapest and quickest-to-market natural graphite
facilities in the world, which are geographically well-positioned for the
Eastern markets such as China, Japan, and Korea. In 2018, the company was named
‘Asia Pacific Mining Exploration Company of the Year 2018’ by Mines and
Money (http://ibn.fm/NAutl).
The company’s industry leadership is evidenced in its Sri
Lanka operations. Ceylon Graphite operates the largest land package in the
country with significant evidence of past production dating back to Sri Lanka’s
stint as the world’s biggest graphite producer – an excellent indicator of the
presence of graphite. The company runs four sites with different degrees of
completion. Last year the company’s subsidiary, Sarcon Development (Pvt) Ltd.,
was granted an industrial mining license category A for its K1 project at
Karasnagala from the mining regulator in Sri Lanka. This is a considerable
achievement as the graphite industrial mining license category A was issued
only four times since the country’s independence in the ‘60s. This highest
category license grants exclusive rights to mine, process, and trade in
graphite mined within the specified area (http://ibn.fm/fg3v9).
CYL is focused on commercial production, constructing
processing plants, and establishing long term sales contracts and joint
ventures with battery and energy storage equipment manufacturers. It is
expected that lithium-ion battery anode requirements will be the main driving
force behind the demand for natural graphite. This production, however,
requires high purity graphite – a minimum of 99.95% Cg – which CYL is capable
of delivering. Its graphite can achieve 99.9997% Cg purity level (http://ibn.fm/6nBoC). Not only
has the company achieved high-purity graphite results, it did so utilizing an
environmentally responsible and sustainable thermal purification process devoid
of dangerous and environmentally harmful acids – placing CYL at the forefront
of the global graphite production map (http://ibn.fm/Tq0Cf).
With its capacity to deliver high-grade natural graphite,
CYL is well-positioned to capitalize on the robust demand driven by the needs
of production of electric vehicles and lithium-ion batteries for consumer
electronics such as mobile phones, laptops, tablets, and media players. Li-ion
batteries are present in over 90% of modern electronic devices, with 10 to 20
times more graphite then lithium-ion. Given the broad application of the
natural graphite and its utilization in products that consumers and businesses
are becoming increasingly dependent upon, the opportunities for market growth
are vast. In this market, however, CYL has a unique position as the competition
delivers significantly lower purity of natural graphite.
With production aimed at positioning the company as a global
player, CYL is an attractive opportunity that will benefit investors with high
growth potential on the tail of the robust international demand for natural
graphite.
