Gratomic (TSX.V: GRAT) (OTCQX: CBULF) (FSE: CB82), a multinational company focused on becoming a leading global graphite supplier, today announced a progress update on earth moving activities at its Flagship Aukam Graphite Project in Namibia. Benching, which typically consists of successively cutting berms alongside the mountain edge in order to steadily expose underground material and ensure the stability of the mountain structure, allows for the collection of graphite in stages as platforms are constructed at Aukam. Of utmost importance, the preparation phase is focused on maintaining safety and stability of the mountain structure throughout the entire benching process. Engineers must plan for the prevention of structural collapses due to existing adits and possible crevices that may exist within the rock formations. According to the update, the Gratomic engineering team has completed the necessary pre-benching requirements, including mobilization of the required yellow machines, continuation of the access road to the upper part of the mountain, and repositioning of the historic stockpiles to the run-of-mine (“ROM”) pad next to the onsite processing plant. “The safety of our people is our main focus,” said Arno Brand, Gratomic’s president and CEO. “We review all engineering plans in minute detail and have plans in place to ensure that the benching program is being conducted safely and efficiently. I am happy with the progress and look forward to seeing the rapid changes on the Aukam horizon in the coming weeks, months and years.”
