The Ancuabe graphite mine in Mozambique’s Cabo Delgado province was re-opened on June 28, following 18 years of inactivity. This was the result of a private sector investment of €12-million in the project. The mine is now operated by GK Ancuabe Graphite Mine Sociedade Anônima, which is a joint venture between Germany’s Graphit Kropfmuhl GmbH (Kropfmuhl, also known as AMG Graphite; this is a subsidiary of the AMG Advanced Metallurgical Group, domiciled in the Netherlands) and local enterprise Empresa Moçambicana de Exploração Mineira.
