Graphite is a soft, crystalline form of elemental carbon. Graphite is a grey to black, opaque mineral with
a metallic lustre. It occurs naturally in metamorphic rocks such as marble, schist, gneiss and phyllite. It is
usually found as veins, lenses, and pockets and as thin laminae disseminated in metamorphic rocks.
Depending on the mode of occurrence and origin, graphite is graded into three forms: flake, crystalline
(lumpy) and cryptocrystalline (amorphous). Graphite is used in steel manufacturing, auto part fabrication,
lubricants and batteries. Future demand drivers are likely to be green technologies such as lithium-ion
batteries, fuel cells, construction materials and graphene based industrial products. The key graphite end
uses are battery anodes, expandable graphite, composites, refractory and foundry, steel markets, gaskets,
seals, brake linings and lubricants.
