Northern Graphite Announces Filing of Expansion Case NI 43-101 PEA

OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Dec 9, 2013) - Northern Graphite Corp. (TSX VENTURE:NGC:)(OTCQX:NGPHF) announces that a technical report prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 with respect to a Preliminary Economic Assessment (the "PEA") on an expansion case for its 100% owned Bissett Creek graphite project has been filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. The technical report is dated December 6, 2013 and was prepared by Marc Leduc, P.Eng., and Gordon Zurowski, P.Eng. and Pierre Desautels, P.Geo. of AGP Mining Consultants Inc. ("AGP"). There are no material differences between the results of the technical report filed and the disclosure provided in the Company's press release dated October 23, 2013 announcing the PEA results.

Gregory Bowes, CEO, commented that: "The PEA builds on the Feasibility Study completed by G Mining in August, 2012, the expanded resource model and updated FS economics completed by AGP and announced September 23, 2013, and the extensive body of work done in the 1980s, all of which have substantially de-risked the project in terms of resources, metallurgy and engineering. The PEA was undertaken to demonstrate the ability to meet expected future growth in graphite demand by doubling mill throughput after three years of operation based on measured and indicated resources only."

Northern Graphite Corp.

Northern Graphite Corp. is a Canadian company that has a 100% interest in the Bissett Creek graphite deposit located in eastern Ontario. Graphite demand is expected to rapidly increase in the future due to strengthening economies and the growth in new technologies such as lithium ion batteries, particularly due to their use in hybrid and all electric vehicles. Graphite production is dominated by China which is modernizing and consolidating its industry and emphasizing value added domestic manufacturing rather than the export of cheap raw materials. Both the EU and USA have named graphite a supply critical mineral. Northern Graphite is well positioned to build the first new greenfields graphite development project in the west in over 20 years. The Company's Bissett Creek project is a high purity, large flake, scalable deposit that is located close to infrastructure and has very competitive capital and operating costs. It is the only graphite project to have completed a full Feasibility Study and to have its major environmental permit.
