It is the basic flotation step that separates the graphite from almost everything (99.8%). No trouble with marble or anything else.

That would mean that the marble/graphite aggregate would have to be crushed into a very fine state prior to flotation to get a full separation. I assume the differences in specific gravities of the two components allows for separation?

I still think the entire process will be very costly to bring the graphite to market readiness. Hopefully, the CCB PEA Chief said is coming in December will provide full details on the costs.
