Market Overview:
The global graphite mine market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for graphite in various applications such as pencil cores, refractory material, conductive material, lubricant material, carbon making and radiation protection material among others. In addition, the growing demand for electric vehicles is also anticipated to fuel the growth of the global graphite mine market during the forecast period. However, volatility in prices of raw materials may restrain the growth of this market over the forecast period.
Product Definition:
A graphite mine is an excavation site from which graphite is extracted. Graphite is a crystalline form of carbon that is used in pencils and other writing instruments because it leaves a dark, solid line on paper.
Flake Graphite:
Flake graphite is a form of carbon, which is naturally occurring in the form of small pieces. It has high electrical and thermal conductivity, along with the ability to absorb shock & vibration. The global market for flake graphite consists of three major applications including electrodes in lithium-ion batteries (LiB), lubricating oil additives, and others.
Amorphous Graphite:
Amorphous graphite is a type of carbon, which has no preferred crystalline form. It can be found in coal mines and was first produced artificially in laboratories. Amorphous graphite is used as an additive to improve the performance of high-performance materials such as composites, ceramics, and refractory bricks. The product improves their mechanical properties such as strength and hardness by making them non-brittle at room temperature.
Application Insights:
The pencil core segment led the market and accounted for more than 45% share of the global revenue in 2017. The segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to its use in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, architecture, metallurgy and other fields as an alternative to diamond. It has excellent graphite drawing properties which make it suitable for making writing or drawing implements. These factors are likely to drive product demand from pencil cores over the next eight years.
Refractory material was one of the major application segments that witnessed considerable growth during recent years owing to rising steel production across various regions including North America and Europe.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017 owing to the high consumption of graphite in various applications. The U.S., which is a major consumer and producer of carbon, is expected to witness significant growth on account of increasing demand for pencils and other writing instruments along with growing industrialization across several sectors such as aerospace, automotive, construction, energy & power generation among others.
The Asia Pacific region accounted for a revenue share of over 20% in 2017 owing to rapid industrialization coupled with rising product use in lithium-ion batteries that are used extensively across several industries including automotive and electronics among others. China emerged as one of the leading producers due to favorable government policies regarding foreign investments along with large scale open pit mining operations that resulted into high production levels compared to other regional markets in 2017.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the automotive and aerospace industries for high-performance composites and lubricants
- Growing popularity of electric vehicles, which require large quantities of graphite to function properly
- Rapid expansion of the Chinese economy, as China is the world's largest producer and consumer of graphite
- Rising prices for natural resources due to growing global demand
- Technological advances that make it easier to extract graphite from ore, increasing supply
