Provided is a graphite plate, consisting essentially of: graphite; and pores, wherein said graphite plate has a porosity from 1% to 30%. Further provided is a method for producing a graphite plate, including: applying welding pressure to at least one glass-like carbon material in a state in which said at least one glass-like carbon material is maintained in an inert atmosphere under heating conditions, to produce a graphite plate having a porosity from 1% to 30%.
