EXIM Signals Up to $120 Million for Titan’s New York Graphite Project in Letter of Interest

The expression of interest under EXIM’s Make More in America initiative triggers EXIM due diligence before any board vote.

Overview

  • EXIM issued a non-binding letter of interest indicating potential financing of up to $120 million for Titan Mining’s Kilbourne Graphite Project in St. Lawrence County, New York.
  • The proposal remains subject to EXIM’s standard due diligence, environmental and policy reviews, followed by consideration by the EXIM Board.
  • Indicative terms contemplate a direct loan with a repayment period of about 12 years, an interest-only phase, and pricing referenced to the Commercial Interest Reference Rate.
  • If finalized, the funding would support construction of a 40,000-tonne-per-year natural flake graphite facility adjacent to Titan’s Empire State Mines zinc complex.
  • Titan’s shares rose nearly 20% following the announcement, and the company says it is coordinating with U.S. agencies, including the Department of Energy.
