Uganda Case Study
Located in north-eastern Uganda, the Uganda Graphite Project focuses on developing a significant deposit of jumbo-flake graphite. Originally identified in the 1960s, the site has undergone extensive modern exploration since 2014, including aerial surveys, trenching, and multiple drilling phases. The local geology is defined by metamorphosed carbonaceous shales within the West Karamoja Group, which was shaped by ancient tectonic activity.
