A requester from Zambia who is quarrying graphite but is unable to supply because of its low carbon content (needs at least 98% carbon content.)He has also been unsuccessful in making carbon brushes for generators and motors from this graphite. He suspects the problem may be with 1) the clay he adds, 2) the low carbon content of the graphite, or with baking.
Your assistance in addressing these problems and or providing sources of information will be much appreciated.
