Renascor Siviour Graphite Mine and Concentrator

Renascor Resources' planned open-pit graphite mine and flotation concentrator at Siviour, near Arno Bay on South Australia's Eyre Peninsula — the upstream half of the company's vertically integrated Battery Anode Material project, whose downstream Purified Spherical Graphite facility is planned for Bolivar. Export Finance Australia holds a conditionally approved A$185 million loan facility under the Australian Government's Critical Minerals Facility, first directed by the Minister on 1 February 2022 and re-announced on 17 April 2024 to bring Stage One forward. The mine is permitted (Mining Lease April 2019, PEPR November 2022) and has completed an early contractor involvement process, but no loaded source records the start of construction, so the line is left at its financed state. Renascor's Definitive Feasibility Study concentrate tonnages were not on any source loaded this pass and no capacity claim is recorded.
