Titan Mining is about to reignite U.S. graphite production
Titan Mining (TSX:TI) is on track to become the United States' first fully integrated graphite producer in more than 70 years by Q4 2025 supported by on-site power and logistics The company expects its graphite to be qualified for sale in Q1 2026 Titan Mining, an Augusta Group company, is a zinc producer and near-term graphite producer in New York Titan Mining stock has added 386.96 per cent year-over-year and 460 per cent since 2020 Titan Mining (TSX:TI) is on track to become the United States' first fully integrated graphite producer in more than 70 years by Q4 2025 supported by on-site power and logistics. This content has been prepared in collaboration with Titan Mining Corporation, and is intended for informational purposes only. Work is progressing on the processing facility at the company's Kilbourne deposit in New York – estimated at 653,000 tons of graphite inferred – with over 50 per cent of major equipment on site and subsidiary Empire State Mines slated to begin installation in August. The facility – built with 90 per cent of equipment sourced in North America – is fully permitted and positioned to qualify its graphite for sale by Q1 2026, unlocking scaling potential that could see it 'meet a majority of projected U.S. graphite demand in key sectors,' according to Monday's news release. According to S&P Global Mobility, North American graphite demand will skyrocket from 56 kilotons in 2023 to 620 kilotons in 2030, driven by its unmatched performance as anode material in lithium-ion batteries, the key enabler of ongoing exponential growth in the electric vehicle market. Titan's graphite operations will diversify existing nearby zinc production, also overseen by Empire State Mines, which is guiding for 64-69 million pounds of payable zinc in fiscal 2025. Leadership insights 'Graphite is a critical material, yet the U.S. has gone decades without domestic production. The current resource outlined at Kilbourne represents only 8,300 feet of strike length tested of a known total strike length of 25,000 feet. Kilbourne has significant resource expansion potential to meet the demands of U.S. natural flake graphite over a long-term period. Our facility is a major step towards restoring U.S. industrial graphite capability and delivering a fully Made in America natural graphite product in 2025,' Don Taylor, Titan Mining's chief executive officer, said in a statement. 'With escalating tariffs on imports and tightening trade restrictions globally, Titan is uniquely positioned to offer secure, tariff-free, U.S.-produced graphite to industrial markets. By investing in U.S.-sourced equipment, leveraging existing infrastructure and maintaining a skilled domestic workforce, Titan provides customers with a reliable alternative amidst growing supply chain uncertainty,' added Rita Adiani, Titan's president. About Titan Mining Titan Mining, an Augusta Group company, is a zinc producer and near-term graphite producer in New York. Titan Mining stock (TSX:TI) last traded at C$1.12. The stock has added 386.96 per cent year-over-year and 460 per cent since 2020.
