In this contribution we report a detailed study of the magnetoresistance of bulk and microflakes of different thickness prepared from a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite sample. Measurements have been done at different temperatures with pulsed magnetic fields up to 62 T applied parallel to the c-axis. The bulk and thicker samples show the well-known sudden jumps in the magnetoresistance in a restricted field region that were interpreted in the past as field-induced electronic phase transitions in graphite associated with, e.g., charge density waves. In the case of the thin graphite flakes the jumps in the magnetoresistance nearly vanish. In general, this suppression agrees very well with other thickness dependent results, such as the temperature dependence of the resistance, the absolute resistivity, the relative change in the magnetoresistance and the Shubnikov-de-Haas oscillations amplitude. Our results indicate that the electronic transport properties of bulk graphite are dominated by the two-dimensional electron gas formed at the interfaces between crystalline regions with the same or different stacking orders present in graphite.
