Total Graphite has launched a new trading line aimed at selling downstream processed
graphite products into higher-value markets.

The company is using third-party processed graphite supply to enter markets where
demand is linked to batteries, semiconductors, aerospace, nuclear uses, flame retardants,
gaskets and specialist industrial applications.

The company says the trading business has completed proof of concept and is expected
to support up to four value-added graphite products during the first half of the
financial year. These include high-purity flake graphite for electric vehicle battery
anodes, ultra-high-purity flake graphite for advanced technology uses, expandable
graphite and colloidal graphite.

The commercial relevance is that Total Graphite expects the line to deliver additional
positive margins without needing extra working capital.

The larger aim is to use this trading activity to build customer relationships and
qualify products that could later be made using Total Graphite’s own natural flake
graphite from Madagascar or Mozambique. If that process is successful, it could 
create a clearer route from the company’s African graphite assets into end-user 
markets.
