Current PIT Shell is approx. 1KM long.
The WKT Lindi Jumbo Deposit is capable of offering more than our current Pit Shell that is based on 40K TPA with a 24 year Mine Life and that is also based on leaving behind and stockpiling 10% cut off grades that others are happy to be mining today.
If you look over previous announcements it will show we are open to the North and further open to the South of the current Pit Shell.
Crudely explained - their appears to be enough potential to increase the Pit Shells by a further 3 and when you take into account the deposit on our neighbouring tenement that has a 4KM strike, it therefore could be also fitting the equivalent of multiple Pit Shells.
As stated by our MD at the investor forums earlier this year, this area could very well become a Graphite Hub in the future ; )
Expanding well beyond the initial 40K TPA is most certainly achievable and certain to be occurring once we get into production seeing as we already have offtake opportunities that are more than double our self imposed start up of 40K TPA.
What is also important to understand is that WKT will grow into the known markets, not disrupt it with oversupply. The global demand for Expandable Graphite is going to create a supply and demand imbalance that will favour WKT and will in turn become part of the solution to aiding in the rise in Graphite Prices IMO.
