Name of the Project
Ancuabe graphite project power solution.

Location
Mozambique.

Project Owner/s
Triton Minerals. Triton signed a memorandum of understanding with HIMOINSA Southern Africa in April 2022, to develop power solutions for the Ancuabe project.

Project Description
The project will develop a modular, economical and sustainable power solution for Stage 1 and 2 of the Ancuabe staged development strategic plan, using either power generated on site, through diesel and hybrid solar or combined with power supply from the local grid.

Stage 1 involves an initial small-scale startup. This will provide power for a processing plant, with an estimated processing capacity of
100 000 t/y to 125 000 t/y of ore, producing 5 000 t/y to 8 000 t/y of graphite concentrate under which HIMOINSA will supply 1.5 MW of diesel-powered electrical generation and potentially a solar/battery hybrid energy solution.

The final Stage 2 expansion plan will be based upon the performance of the process plant in Stage 1, incorporating value-add improvements identified in Stage 1 and also the market demand for flake graphite prevailing at the time.

Stage 2 will scale up the supply of energy to up to 6 MW, with the addition of a diesel and solar/battery hybrid energy solution, potentially supported by connection to the grid. The solution is designed to fit with modular processing plant design.
