Upon noticing that Asbury also import graphite from another mine in Madagascar, I thought I would investigate a little further to check out our competition. I wish I hadn't! It's that impressive, I nearly wet my pants with laughter by the time I got to the 5min 20sec mark!!!
The Gallios mine is the biggest in the world, covering an area of 281 sq km. Production is at 100,000 tpa. The name of the company is
Madagraphite, and boy do they have ostentatious plans. A resort style complex with a shopping centre, hospital, football field guest-housing and helipad, just to name a few flash add-ons!
The video is on their home page:

Caution: Viewing is not for the faint-hearted (ie. if you are already feeling deflated about BSM)!
