Growing Divide In Passport Power Is Reshaping Global ...
Focus Graphite’s AI technology processes about 300 core samples to enhance resource valuation and mine planning at Lac Tetepisca, supporting ESG-aligned, value-driven mining strategies.
- Focus Graphite announced it developed and validated a low-cost AI-enabled flake size technology integrated into the Lac Tetepisca model, supported by PQVMCS funding and IOS Services Geoscientifiques Inc.
- Historically, resource valuation relied on limited bulk metallurgical composite sampling that missed spatial flake-size variability, so Focus Graphite Inc. developed AI-enabled in situ flake-size characterization for better cut-off grade and MRE considerations.
- About 300 core samples are being processed to validate the AI-based RGB image analysis on high-resolution optical microscopy images of graphite flakes, with validation via SEM and bench testing.
- Results are slated for incorporation into the upcoming Mineral Resource Estimate update for the Manicouagan-Ouest Graphitic Corridor deposit, which could affect resource valuation and Project economics, while Focus Graphite Inc. plans to extend the technique to the Lac Knife Project.
- If preliminary trends hold, project economics could shift because graphite pricing depends on flake size, with values from US$300 to over $1,400 per tonne, supporting ESG and supply-chain resilience.
