Titan Mining Corporation (TSX: TI; OTCQB: TIMCF) has made significant progress in the construction of its graphite processing facility for the Kilbourne Graphite Project at Empire State Mines LLC (ESM) in St. Lawrence County, New York. The company has achieved a major construction milestone with over 50% of major equipment delivered, and installation is set to commence in August 2025, with commissioning targeted for the fourth quarter of 2025 [1][2][3].

The Kilbourne Graphite Project aims to be the first fully integrated U.S. graphite producer in over 70 years, delivering domestically sourced and processed natural graphite by the end of 2025. The project is strategically positioned to offer a reliable, tariff-free graphite source amidst rising global trade restrictions and tariffs on imports, providing a secure supply chain alternative for industrial markets [1][2][3].

Titan's investment in U.S.-sourced equipment and utilization of existing infrastructure, such as a skilled 135+ person workforce, on-site power, and logistics network, are key factors enabling the company to fast-track the readiness of its facility. The recent arrival and placement of the ball mill mark another significant milestone in advancing towards operational readiness [1][2][3].

The Kilbourne Graphite Project offers significant scalability, positioning Titan to meet a majority of projected U.S. graphite demand in key sectors. The project's resource expansion potential is substantial, with only 8,300 ft of strike length tested out of a known total strike length of 25,000 ft, indicating significant growth opportunities [1][3].

Titan's commitment to developing critical minerals assets and enhancing the security of the domestic supply chain is evident in its strategic approach to the Kilbourne Graphite Project. The company's forward-looking statements, however, are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including cost increases, equipment shortages, fluctuations in mineral prices, and regulatory impacts [1].
