Metals Australia Ltd. announced the results of preliminary metallurgical testing of graphite mineralisation at the Lac Rainy Graphite Project, located in Quebec, Canada. SGS Canada Inc. (SGS) were selected to undertake the testwork program on two composite graphite samples collected from the Lac Rainy Project in August 2017. Testwork included sample preparation, chemical and mineralogical characterisation of the feed samples, and batch cleaner flotation based on a flowsheet comparable with the process proposed for the nearby Lac Knife Graphite Deposit being developed by Focus Graphite Inc. Testwork results indicate that a commercial graphite concentrate with very good concentrate grades and recoveries can be achieved from the graphite mineralisation at Lac Rainy. Open circuit graphite recovery up to 91.0% and combined concentrate grades of up to 96.7% total carbon (Ct) were achieved. This is a significant outcome and is very encouraging as these results were achieved using a non-optimised flowsheet and are based on the flowsheet for a separate (though geologically similar) deposit. Furthermore, as these characterisation samples were collected from surface, it is likely that they have a certain degree of oxidation. Unoxidised samples from deeper within a graphite deposit often provide a better metallurgical performance.
