FORGING THE FUTURE

Empowering Global Growth with Our Brazilian Graphite

Brazil has the best growth potential in the production of graphite, a material experiencing rapidly increasing use in a growing number of industries, including the production of batteries, emerging solar technologies, and in the manufacturing of electronic components.

 
 

OUR MISSION

To harness the vast potential of Brazil’s graphite reserves to establish ourselves as the foremost leader in the industry.

Through cutting-edge exploration, extraction, and refinement techniques, we aim to deliver superior quality graphite products to meet the evolving demands of various sectors, while prioritizing environmental stewardship and community prosperity.

OUR VISION

To pioneer the global graphite industry through unparalleled innovation and sustainable practices.

Leveraging Brazil’s abundant resources to empower a greener and more technologically advanced future.

Bahia Graphite

123,646 Hectares

Bahia Graphite’s total land package totals 123,646 Hectares firmly establishing our presence in Brazil as a major graphite player.

Bahia Graphite is the only graphite company outside of China to have ownership of all 5 types of graphite located in a single state; small flake, medium flake, large flake, jumbo flake and vein graphite. 

Bahia Graphite presents a set of areas located in the north-central region of the state of Bahia, Brazil that can be divided into 10 blocks, namely: Itaitu, Lajedo, Cachoeira Grande, Riachão do Jacuípe, Capela, Conceição, Filadélfia, Nova Fátima, Riachão, and Baixa Grande. These areas are located close to important mineral deposits such as Gold, Chromium, Copper, Graphite, Lead and Zinc, in addition to several occurrences of other substances such as Phosphate, Nickel and Barium mapped by the Geological Service of Brazil.

Itaitu

Our flagship asset, Itaitu has been the primary focus of Bahia Graphite where we have established a NI 43-101 Compliant MRE. The inferred MRE was calculated at 2% TGC cutoff grade and produced 1,759,931 tonnes at a grade of 9.15% TGC for a total of 205,642 contained graphite tonnage. The deepest hole in our initial drill program reached depths of 97.55m. In that hole, the apparent thickness of the graphite body was 58.55m and the graphite body was not completely surpassed. Deeper drilling is needed to identify extent of deposit.

Milestones and work to be performed in 2025:

  • Drilling to indicated resources, 3,000 meters

  •  Lab assays

  • 43-101 MRE Upgrade

  • PFS + preliminary engineering

  • Infill drilling + mining plan

  • DFS + detailed engineering

After completing the MRE, a new major outcrop was discovered approximately 30m in length on the southern part of the tenements. Sample results are pending analysis.

Capela

18,249 Hectares

The Capela asset is a 18,249 Ha property that has recently show cased impressive results. This asset has a mapped graphite body estimated to be approximately 1.4 km in length, with graphite outcrop located between two blocks with graphite occurrences. Geochemical results demonstrate high graphite content ranging from 21.89 to 26.23 % TGC.


Recent surface mapping identified the possibility of five ore bodies in the area. We are excited to follow up.
