Mantra: Production Production Production
• Graphite is a mineral with unique thermal, chemical,
and electrical properties.
• Derived from carbon, it is biocompatible.
• Has been designated a critical mineral by the United
States due to its supply chain vulnerability and its
importance to national security.
• All the products shown require some form of
refined/purified form of graphite.

2. Assumptions: operating voltage at 3.92V. “for optimum range” and 360 mAh/g average capacity.
Actually: excess anode active material used (up to 20%); some use of 4 to 8% SiOx
