Evolution Engineering Minerals has awarded the front end engineering design contract to CPC Engineering as it advances towards a final investment decision in late 2022 for its 100%-owned Chilalo graphite project in Tanzania.
CPC was chosen from a panel of engineering firms for the processing plant and associated non-processing infrastructure for the fully permitted, $US87M pre-production capital cost development targeting production of 50,000tpa graphite concentrate over 18 years.
Evolution expects completion of the FEED and a DFS optimisation study by Sept.
