According to Triton, this \u201cmaterially advances and significantly de-risks the plan to bring the company\u2019s flagship Ancuabe project into production in the short term\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The agreement lasts five years and guarantees a minimum price of one thousand US dollars a tonne with an option to renew for a further five years covering another 50,000 tonnes.<\/p>\n<p>According to Triton\u2019s managing director, Andrew Frazer, \u201cthis binding commercial agreement is with a graphite specialist organisation that has mined, manufactured, and sold expandable graphite products for nearly ten years. We are both proud and fortunate to be associated with a world-renowned, leading graphite company that supplies materials to some of the world\u2019s most distinguished electronics and technology companies\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Triton\u2019s ultimate goal is to expand the Ancuabe project to produce 60,000 tonnes per annum of high purity large flake graphite over a mine life of 27 years.<\/p>\n<p>Mozambique is a major global source of graphite with Syrah Resources\u2019 project at Balama, also in Cabo Delgado, having the capacity to produce 350,000 tonnes of graphite concentrate per year over its mine life of fifty years.<\/p>\n<p>Graphite is a highly valued form of carbon due to its properties as a conductor of electricity. It is used in batteries and fuel cells and is the basis for the \u201cmiracle material\u201d graphene, which is the strongest material ever measured with vast potential for use in the electronics industries. In addition, expandable graphite can be pressed into sheets for use as a heat and fire retardant.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
