Titan Mining, US Army advance strategic graphite processing plant in Alabama

Titan Mining's subsidiary, Empire State Mines, LLC, has partnered with the U.S. Army to develop a critical minerals processing facility on U.S. Army property in Alabama. The agreement involves leasing approximately 97 acres at the Anniston Army Depot for up to 100 years to construct the facility, which will convert raw graphite into higher-value materials for batteries, defense equipment, and industrial products.

The term sheet also grants the U.S. Army a right of first offer to purchase up to 10% of the facility's annual production, without affecting committed product quantities. This collaboration represents a significant step in Titan Mining's strategy to establish a fully integrated American graphite supply chain, leveraging existing infrastructure and strategic U.S. defense infrastructure to expedite the growth of the domestic critical minerals industry.
