Renascor Resources Limited is an Australian mineral exploration and development company established in 2009. The company specializes in manufacturing battery anode materials, with its flagship Siviour Graphite Project in South Australia representing one of the world’s largest graphite deposits outside Africa. Through its vertically integrated approach, Renascor processes graphite into high-quality materials essential for lithium-ion batteries, supporting the global transition to renewable energy and electric vehicles. The company’s strategic position in South Australia allows for complete control over production, from mining to final processing, ensuring consistent quality and reliable supply chains.
Battery Technology
Renascor’s primary focus is the production of Purified Spherical Graphite (PSG), a critical component in lithium-ion battery anodes. The company employs an innovative, environmentally responsible purification process that achieves up to 99.99% carbon purity without using hydrofluoric acid, setting new standards for sustainable battery material production.
The Siviour Graphite Project combines mining operations with a state-of-the-art processing facility in Bolivar, South Australia. This integrated approach includes:
- Open-pit mining with efficient crush, grind, and float processing
- Advanced graphite concentration techniques
- Eco-friendly purification methods
- Production of battery-grade PSG
The facility is designed to produce 140,000 tonnes of high-grade graphite annually over a 40-year period, making it a significant contributor to the global battery supply chain. Renascor has also explored silicon-enhanced anode technologies to improve battery performance and storage capacity.
Recent Projects
In recent developments, Renascor has achieved significant progress with its downstream demonstration facility, collecting approximately 730 tonnes of graphite ore from the Siviour deposit. The company completed the environmental impact statement for its PSG site and secured equipment contracts for the demonstration facility, scheduled for commissioning in Q3 2025. Additionally, Renascor received conditional approval for an AU$185 million loan facility from Export Finance Australia to advance the upstream graphite concentrate operation.
