Is there anyone here who has a good knowledge of graphite mining.
How complex is graphite mining ???? What are the drills and process flow.
I have very little knowledge about it. I know a thing or two about the gold mining business but very little about the graphite mining business.
All I know is graphite has always been used and with new innovations/technology (such as EV, battery etc etc) the use of graphite has been greatly enhanced. I know a large percentage of graphite & nickel goes into lithium batteries. The percentage of lithium in lithium battery is very small. So my logic has always been if lithium batteries is the new world then I have to be bullish on graphite and nickel. I also hold some nickel dogs but no lithium stock.( I think lithium stocks are great hype.........they already reflect many many years of profit & growth by just attaching the lithium name in there tenements).
I could have invested in Syrah but I wanted more bang for my buck....so always have a close eye on BAT.
So if there is any experts around please help us understanding the graphite mining process.
Thanks in advance.

I don't have any knowledge in graphite, but I know that the two metals, nickel & lithium cannot normally be used together in a battery.
I know that a lithium battery is made of, 2% lithium, 18% cobalt & 80% graphite. DYOR
