EcoGraf ( (AU:EGR) ) has issued an update.

EcoGraf has advanced an application with DEG Impulse, a subsidiary of German development finance institution DEG and part of the KfW Group, to co-fund community development initiatives linked to its Epanko Graphite Project in Tanzania. The move complements its existing mandate with KfW IPEX-Bank to arrange up to US$105 million in senior secured debt for the project under Germany’s Untied Loan Guarantee scheme.

Under Germany’s develoPPP program, the company is seeking grant support for a series of social and environmental projects aligned with its Resettlement Action Plan and wider community strategy, including resettlement village infrastructure, education and health facilities, vocational training, local enterprise development, and environmental restoration. These initiatives, targeted to begin in mid-2026 subject to approval, reinforce EcoGraf’s alignment with IFC Performance Standards and Equator Principles and aim to enhance the project’s social licence and long-term sustainable impact in host communities.
