Location of Namangale Project -southern Tanzania
- The Mozambican Mobile Belt represents a band of highly metamorphosed rocks extending through East Africa
- Tanzanian graphite appears to contain larger flake sizes however with lower average total graphitic carbon grades than Mozambique
- Tanzania is a very stable political and economic investment destination
- Volt has established excellent local partnerships supporting tenure and approvals
Maiden Inferred JORC Resource
- Maiden total JORC compliant Inferred Resource of 179Mt @ 5.1% TGC
- Total of 82 RC holes and 9 diamond drill holes
- Very shallow resource (<100m) / Low cost deposit to explore and mine
- Infill drilling program to commence in April 2016
- Diamond drilling test-work ongoing; focused on graphite recovery and product quality of concentrates following flotation
Namangale PFS Underway
A Pre-Feasibility Study has commenced for the Namangale Project including:
- Metallurgical testwork: Flake size and concentrate optimization underway to refine the metallurgy of the project
- Marketing: MOUs with reputable end-users signed by mid-2016
