Lithium-ion batteries contain up to 10 times the amount of graphite as lithium, so the potential is great, especially if electric vehicles (EVs) catch on in the market. The Nissan Leaf EV for example, has a 24 kilowatt-hour (kWh) battery pack, each one made with 19 kg of lithium carbonate and 38.4 kg of graphite, says Simon Moores, deputy editor of U.K.-based Industrial Minerals. “If they produce a million of these, that’s nearly 4 mil- lion tonnes of graphite,” Moores said at a recent Graphite Express conference in Toronto. “At the moment, graphite is only a million-tonne industry, so that’s the reason people are getting excited about it.”
