Qingdao Purification Facility
Representative of concentrated non-domestic purification capacity.
| ID | Date | Category | Source | Confidence | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EV-030 | 2026-03-20 | Technical | Technical literature | Medium | Under Review | Qingdao facility throughput is independently estimated at 40,000–50,000 tonnes of spherical graphite annually based on trade data and satellite imagery of stockpile volumes. |
| EV-031 | 2026-03-23 | Technical | Technical literature | Medium | Verified | Facility has operated continuously since 2016 with no publicly reported major outages, suggesting mature process control relative to newer entrants. |

Port of Beira's bulk handling infrastructure is less developed than alternative regional ports.
The Southern California rail corridor has adequate current capacity but limited headroom for peak-volume years.
This entity is not a dependency of any scenario yet.
Assess whether infrastructure upgrades at Port of Beira would materially reduce logistics risk.
Confirm sufficient rail capacity is contractually available for peak-year program volumes.
