IMARC 2025 | Black Rock Mining: Financing, Partnerships & the Path to First Graphite Production
In our latest episode, I spoke with John De Vries, Managing Director and CEO of Black Rock Mining, live from the International Mining and Resources Conference (IMARC) 2025 in Sydney.
John shares insights into Black Rock’s progress at the Mahenge Graphite Project in Tanzania, one of the world’s largest advanced natural graphite developments, and discusses the company’s partnership with POSCO, its strategy for financing, and how it plans to supply the growing ex-China graphite market.
We cover:
- The path to first production and Mahenge’s role in strengthening the global graphite supply chain
- How partnerships like POSCO enable end-to-end integration without stretching capital resources
- The impact of China’s graphite export restrictions and how they are accelerating diversification
- Why collaboration and supply chain resilience are essential to building a sustainable graphite industry
- How Black Rock’s focus on simplicity, profitability, and execution sets it apart in a crowded market
