 Epanko Project Flyover

Epanko the Largest Development Ready Graphite Project in Africa, following 127% Mineral Resource Increase to 290.8Mt at 7.2% TGC

EcoGraf Limited (EcoGraf or the Company) (ASX: EGR; FSE: FMK; OTCQB: ECGFF) is pleased to provide a flyover view of the recent Mineral Resource estimate (MRE) for its Epanko Graphite Project (Epanko or the Project) in Tanzania.

The flyover highlights a single continuous graphitic unit over 5.5km in length, with widths up to 210m, providing the potential for long-term low strip ratios. The entire graphite mineralisation will be contained in the new Special Mining Licence (SML) area, that is expected to be granted over the next 1-2 months. 

Outstanding trenching results encountered over the Mount Grafit ‘Peak’ show the high-grade potential along strike, with trenching assay including: MHT26 43m at 20.8% TGC from 0m and MHT24 33m at 19.7% TGC from 30m that remains open along-strike and down-dip. 

The Peak is at an elevation of 1400mRL which is 450m above the proposed plant site, providing downhill transport from the mine to the proposed processing plant.

The flyover also highlights the very favourable natural topography that will enable mine, process plant and tailings storage facility (TSF) expansions well beyond the existing mining schedule.
