Part of bulk sampling and screening program, the test is designed to evaluate concentration and grading of graphite mineralization at the property.
Carried out at Gecko Laboratories, the tests were conducted on 1,763 pounds of composite samples extracted from 150 tons of pre-screened graphitic lump, residual and waste material.
Next Graphite CEO Cliff Bream said: "Our flotation tests at 212 micron grind size produced a very high purity of graphite after just one flotation, which is a strong indicator of the quality of the graphite at Aukam.
"The test results also provide us with the ability to begin positioning ourselves for off-take agreements with graphite consumers around the world."
The company is currently working on a graphite processing plant and plans to carry out a preliminary economic analysis, to determine the viability of its above ground assets.
