A Canadian company continues work on plans to build a billion dollar graphite processing plant in Weathersfield Township.

The company originally planned to invest $435 million but after the study of the site they found out they can go bigger and now plan to invest almost $4 billion. The plant would bring in more than 150 jobs to Trumbull County. 

When Graphite One announced plans for the project a year ago, it said it intends to complete the construction of the Ohio treatment plant within the next three years, before the development of its G1 AK's Graphite Creek Project near Nome, Alaska.
