GreenRoc Strategic Materials (AIM:GROC), the AIM-listed developer of critical mineral projects in Greenland, said the purification line for its active anode materials (AAM) pilot plant is being packed for shipment to Denmark from Sepor Inc's Florida premises.
The equipment, comprising reactor tanks, rinse tanks, slurry pumps, baking and drying ovens, and a fume scrubber, was built by Sepor to specifications set by GreenRoc and technical adviser ProGraphite GmbH.
It is expected to arrive at the Hørsholm plant by the end of September.
"The shipment of the purification line for our pilot plant in Denmark represents an important practical step towards demonstrating our ability to produce battery-grade active anode material in Europe", chief executive Stefan Bernstein said.
At the Amitsoq project, Phase III drilling has completed three holes, each returning significant graphite intersections.
The first hole, AM_DD_039, intercepted the Lower Graphite Layer (LGL) with 9.7 metres of true thickness. AM_DD_040 hit the Upper Graphite Layer at roughly 36 metres depth with 4.8 metres of true thickness, and LGL at roughly 93 metres with 9.2 metres. The third hole, AM_DD_043, intercepted LGL at approximately 137 metres depth with 21.3 metres of true thickness, extending known mineralisation north of the 2021 and 2022 drilling.
Geotechnical measurements are taking longer than expected, but the field team remains confident the data needed to launch a Pre-Feasibility Study later this year will be completed on schedule.
GreenRoc has also begun work with the European Investment Bank under the InvestEU Advisory Hub, following a late-July meeting.
The EIB has delivered a first draft market analysis and an economic model for the integrated graphite mine and AAM plant, built partly on GreenRoc's existing Preliminary Economic Assessment and updated graphite pricing data.
News Intelligence what this means for the company
GreenRoc is advancing its core assets on schedule: purification equipment for its Danish pilot plant is shipping this month, Phase III drilling at Amitsoq has returned three holes with graphite intersections ranging from 4.8 to 21.3 metres true thickness (extending known mineralisation northward), and the European Investment Bank has begun formal advisory work including market analysis and economic modelling. The company is moving from pilot demonstration toward bankability assessment, with a Pre-Feasibility Study targeted for later this year.
- Sepor Inc supplied and built the purification equipment to specification, anchoring GreenRoc's ability to execute the pilot phase on its stated timeline.
- ProGraphite GmbH's role as technical adviser on the purification line design is now being tested in practice as equipment arrives in Denmark by end-September.
GreenRoc remains pre-revenue and dependent on equity and debt financing, but is now moving from exploration into pilot production and formal bankability review—reducing technical and market risk ahead of any major capital raise. The EIB's involvement signals third-party validation of the business case, though financing readiness and graphite market conditions remain key variables.
