Energizer Resources Announces Commissioning and Start-Up of Molo Graphite Pilot Plant

17/10/2013 1:00pm

Marketwired Canada


Energizer Resources Inc. (OTCQX:ENZR)(TSX:EGZ)(FRANKFURT:YE5) ("Energizer" or
the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has commissioned and started up
the pilot plant for its flagship Molo Graphite Project in Madagascar. 


Mechanical commissioning of the Molo Graphite Project pilot plant has been
completed and two continuous 80-hour campaigns to optimize metallurgical
conditions will be completed in the next 30 days. The pilot plant was designed,
built, and is being operated by SGS Canada Inc. ("SGS") in Lakefield, Ontario. 


Two hundred tonnes of composite graphite ore was transported last month from the
Molo deposit via existing, serviceable infrastructure to SGS in preparation for
the pilot plant. Representatives from Caracle Creek International Consulting
("CCIC") were on site to ensure the ore extracted from the Molo deposit was a
true representative sample of the mill feed that will eventually be treated in
the future processing plant and that it would satisfy the required standards for
use in the upcoming Bankable Feasibility Study ("BFS"). CCIC was the Qualified
Person ("QP") for the recently completed Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA")
study and will also be retained as QP for the upcoming BFS.


Multi-Tonne Samples of Graphite Concentrate Ready for Shipment to Potential
Partners in November


The Company expects the pilot plant to produce between 7 to 9 tonnes of
finished, flaked graphite concentrate within the next 30 days. The pilot plant
will enable the Company to optimize flake size, quality and purity to meet the
various specifications that have been requested by several potential off take
partners. This in turn will allow them to adequately evaluate the finished Molo
graphite concentrate and its ability to meet the requirements of their customers
- the ultimate end users of the product. The pilot plant will also provide key
operational data that will be used to generate process design criteria for the
BFS.


Craig Scherba, President & COO stated, "Energizer has reached yet another
significant milestone with the commissioning and operation of our pilot plant,
which is a critical component of Molo's mine development plan. We are extremely
pleased that by the end of November, tonnes of our finished graphite will be in
the hands of several potential off take partners for evaluation."


The Company looks forward to reporting the final test results from the pilot
plant over the next several weeks. As the Company previously reported, the
recent metallurgical results from the optimization testing resulted in a
significantly improved quality of the flotation concentrate, in terms of both
grade and size distribution versus those reported in the Company's PEA Study. 


Potential Ability To Produce High Volume Quantities Of Both Premium Priced Large
Flake And Ultra-High Purity Finished Graphite Products


The optimization testing at SGS confirmed that nearly half (47.4%) of the Molo
graphite concentrate is classified as the premium-priced large & jumbo flake
size (greater than +80 mesh). In conjunction with the test results that
confirmed that the Molo graphite concentrate could be easily upgraded to the
ultra high purity of greater than 99.9% carbon, the Company will be well
positioned to sell finished product to a wide range of end users at premium
prices. 


DRA Mineral Projects, Africa's leading mine builder has been retained to
complete the Molo BFS and subject to project financing, will be subsequently
commissioned for design, construction and operation of the future mine. It
should be noted that the BFS will incorporate revised CAPEX and OPEX numbers
generated from the latest enhanced and optimized metallurgical results versus
the existing data that was used and reported in the Company's latest PEA study.
This is expected to have a positive impact on the already robust Internal Rate
of Return ("IRR") and Net Present Value ("NPV") of the Project.
