These claims will enable Volt Carbon to further explore a potential prospect for flake graphite in Ontari
The Challenge In addition to grade and tonnage, the grain size and quality of flake graphite have a significant impact on the economics of developing a graphite project. It became apparent at an early stage that, while the Thomas Lake Road occurrence contained high-value coarse flake graphite that is easily recovered, the grades and tonnages available were unlikely to be adequate for development based on this occurrence alone.
