Ann: Development Progress - Lindi Jumbo Mine, page-4894

Hi FDS right Que back on the Rum bottle filling in Saturday nights…

What did you think of @whyafrica tweet…before it disappeared…? Did they really mean to say they were successfully concentrating ore at 40,000 tons…?

Just looking at some observations of petrography differences…It is well know that weathering loosens the layers of graphite reducing both density and hardness…The harder the graphite the larger the flake the high the expansion ratios. The higher the density the higher the charge capacity…

The petrography slide is of weathered material at the bottom slide..The layers have been loosened which is a correlation to share holders communication line. This is similar to SYR who mined extremely weathered material and unable to liberate the graphite which is embedded with vanadium contamination…Fortunately for Lindi the graphite is has similar density from the limited weathered material and fresh material. Lindi vanadium contamination is attached to the gangue which reports to the tailings…

A fare % of Lindi graphite will never see a crusher or grinder while China typically requires 12 grinding and polishing stages…The larger the flake the better it is for liberating…
