Graphite is a hard, non-metallic carbon form that is black and silver in color and a metallic to dull in sheen. It is very similar to that of a lead metal and it is also called as colloquially like a black lead. Graphite is very usually be seen at the flakes or the layers of crystalline that are found in the metamorphic rocks such as gneisses, marble and schist’s . Graphite is also found in the naturally shale’s and the coal beds. In these situations, the graphite is itself known to be an outcome of the metamorphosis of the dead plant and the animal matter. Graphite is also seen in the veins and sometimes in the basalt. Graphite is also observed from the meteorites. Graphite is made up of a ring of six carbon atoms that are tightly and closely bonded with each other in a hexagonal layers that are spaced. The bond in the layers are very potential however, the bonds in between the layers are few in number and hence are weaker.

The Global Graphite Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 23,279.3 million in 2021 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 13.2% over the forecast period (2021-2028).

Graphite is the constant form of the carbon diamonds at or the near the surface of the earth are eventually transforming to graphite. Luckily this method is very slow. Diamond is other carbon polymorph though composed of the carbon element such as diamond, graphite do not have anything else in common. Both have everything in contrast. Diamond is the hardest element however, graphite is one of the softest mineral. Diamond is generally transparent in nature however, graphite is very opaque also the diamond is generally utilized as an abrasive where the graphite is a very good lubricant. Graphite is an exclusive and marvelous conductor of the electricity, whereas diamond is a good insulator of electricity. United States is 100% net import reliant of the graphite from various countries such as China and India.
