Portfolio
Near-term development focus with completed DFS, mining concession and premium flake product potential.
Early-stage exploration opportunity in a highly prospective graphite setting, supporting future resource expansion.
A complementary mineral asset that adds broader exploration optionality across the regional portfolio.
Why Mozambique
Cabo Delgado is a proven graphite-producing region. Neighbouring operations include the AMG GK mine immediately adjacent to Ancuabe and Syrah Resources’ Balama mine approximately 150km to the west, the world’s largest graphite producing facility.
This setting provides confidence in geology, operating conditions and regional infrastructure as we advance Ancuabe toward production.
