Nouveau Monde Graphite (CVE: NOU) has awarded ABB a contract to supply, construct and commission the 120kV substation for its Phase-2 Matawinie mine in Quebec, Canada, as part of the construction preparation for the establishment of a 103,000 tons per annum graphite mining and concentrator complex.
Located 120 km north of Montreal, the Matawinie will be connected to the provincial hydropower network, enabling the access to clean energy to support mining activities and concentrator production of carbon-neutral graphite concentrate destined for the lithium-ion battery market, Nouveau Monde said, adding that it is set to equip Matawinie as the world’s first all-electric open-pit mine when it starts operating.
