globe’s top known graphite resources

Thought you guys might get a laugh out of this article. It appears SYR is NOT the largest graphite deposit on the planet, according to this list compiled by LML.

SYR comes come in #4 behind LTX, whose current sp is 3.7c ouch!

GRAPHITE: At the risk of certain readers of this site having a conniption, here is an interesting list by an Australian explorer for graphite, Lincoln Minerals. The company, whose projects are on the Eyre Peninsula in the state of South Australia, plans to be in production by 2015, its first mine (Kookaburra Gully) billed as having premium flake graphite at grades of over 90% total graphitic content without the need for chemical leaching, has compiled a list of the globe’s top known graphite resources.

As I say, don’t shoot the messenger (me); I did not compile this list, I have not verified it, and it is reproduced here purely for the interest of those who follow the graphite scene to discuss or whatever.

OK, that said, here are the top projects as classified by Lincoln:
