ABSTRACT: Graphite, having hexagonal crystal structure, has a high heat transmission capacity and starts burning at 3500 °C, This property opens various fields of industrial usage to graphite, especially m metal extraction and maulding Graphte which is also used as electrodes has two different forms in nature. These are nomed as mocrs,- and nicro or crypto crystalline grophite. Graphite results from high heat effects In nature and its must common types are the metamorphie ares. World graphite production is 378.000 tons per year
