Oct 21, 2013 (A Wilson) - From the combined Burgess/Bedford sample of approximately 1500 lb of graphite-bearing rock, 130.5 lb of flake graphite concentrate was produced. The company submitted the 130.5 lbs of flake graphite to PTI to determine if acceptable flake graphite products could be obtained. Two products were produced. Product #1 was a graphite flake product with a mean size of 18.93 microns in a range between 3.27 microns and 74 microns. Product #2 was a graphite flake with a mean size of 26.77 microns in a range between 4.62 and 88.0 microns. The West Zone at-surface high grade graphite occurrence returned 21% total carbon and 19.14% graphitic carbon from a 750 kg composite bulk sample.
