Orom-Cross is a unique graphite project located in Uganda, East Africa, that delivers scale and quality, backed by extensive test work by leading technical experts, including bulk sample testing.
Graphite is a non-replaceable input into all lithium-ion batteries that store renewable energy and power EVs.
The Company successfully completed a DFS in late 2025 which highlights a long life, low capital and operating cost mine, delivering a Net Present Value in excess of US$1.254 billion and an IRR of 51%.
Blencowe owns 100% of Orom-Cross and has a 21-year mining licence in place and is driving towards first production in 2027.
Blencowe’s strategic partnership with the US International Development Finance Corporation, which has provided up to US$5 million in non-dilutive grant funding toward the Definitive Feasibility Study, underscores Orom-Cross’s role in building a secure, non-China graphite supply chain for Western battery and energy storage markets.
