Under Recommendations, Mineral Processing and Metallurgical Testion (page 26-1): Additional metallurgical testwork should be carried out to scale up the process flowsheet for the production of a high-purity graphite product with the specifications targeted based on research and dialogue with end users. Continued mineralogical characterization and mineral deportment analysis on a broad range of ore samples representative of the areas to be mined (across the Mineral Resources and at depth) Ore variability testing Confirmatory tests on regrinding, liquid-solid separation and thickening under the various stages of flotation Confirm the grinding media selection does not affect the quality of the product Optimization of the purification circuit, including materials handling, liquid-solid separation, and thickening Off-gas handling and scrubbing requirements in low-temperature bake treatment Dust collection and recycle Analysis and characterization of all waste streams and determination of the appropriate methods of disposal Methods for effective drying and handling of the final graphite product Detailed water balance for the entire process flowsheet *Materials of construction requirements Re: the latter point, from page 21-3: Due to the lixiviants used in purification, there is a potential for corrosion and special materials of contstruction for process equipment will be required. Increased costs for special materials of construction have not been included in the current cost estimate,
