2021-10-26 Although historically termed Ragedara mine, the mine is known as the Sakura graphite mine today. At the height of its production, the mine can produce approximately 18,000 tonnes of high-quality graphite (92% 99%) per year. Ragedara mine is located over a 100km away from Colombo, in the Matale district in the Central province of Sri Lanka.
Known under various names including crystalline vein, Plumbago, Sri Lankan graphite, and Ceylon graphite, “Sri Lankan” and “Ceylon” are commonly used for vein graphite since the island nation of Sri Lanka (formally Ceylon) is the only area to produce this material in commercial quantities. Serious mining and exportation of Ceylon graphite began about 1824; however, the unusual deposits

Sri Lanka has a long history of producing the world’s purest graphite, but the existing mines are located on the Western side of the island. Previously known graphite deposits on the island consist of narrow veins (usually no more than a couple of feet thick) deep below the surface requiring expensive underground mining.
2019-12-9 Sri Lanka’s history when it comes to graphite is compelling. Graphite mined from the island nation is known to be some of the purest in the world but accounts for less than 1% of global production.Graphite from Sri Lanka is only vein graphite with a in situ purity greater than 90% carbon content, which in this industry is quite significant.
