Very exciting results with regards to Sri Lankan vein graphite. Natural crystalline vein graphite appears to smoke the $10-20k per tonne synthetic variety in performance. The beauty of that is that it can be mined and sold for cheaper in price if it has to compete in price... But in these industries where performance is top priority, outstanding performance results like that will command a premium price. RS Mines already has a premium product it sells for $15 per gram! That's $15,000,000 per tonne!
Seems like the obvious choice for vein graphite to be adopted in ultra-premium industries.
Only challenge is whether Sri Lankan miners can dig up enough to meet the demand!
