Alabama Graphite Receives Promising Preliminary Geophysical Survey Results

Vancouver, BC / TNW-ACCESSWIRE / April 8, 2014 - Alabama Graphite Corp. (the "Company") (CSE: ALP) (OTC: ABGPF) (FRANKFURT: A1G WKN: A1J35M) (ISIN# CA0102931080) is pleased to announce that it has received preliminary results from the recent heliborne geophysical surveys on its Coosa Graphite Project in Alabama. The preliminary results received include the Time-Domain Electromagnetic (TDEM), Magnetic (MAG) and Spectrometric (SPEC) surveys. ProspectAir Geosurveys of Gatineau, Quebec, conducted the geophysical surveys and is doing the data processing.

"The geophysical survey has identified multiple strong EM conductors associated with magnetic lows that represent new exploration opportunities," said Dr. Douglas Oliver, Vice President of Exploration. "We see these newly defined targets as having the potential to significantly upgrade the Company's resource."

The Coosa Graphite Project has been the subject of extensive exploration by the Company. The objective presently is to 'ground truth' the geophysical results. In particular, the results over the drill grid that defined the initial resource provide the means to correlate between the various surveys and the limits of graphite mineralization.

Of the various surveys conducted, the TDEM survey is the most important. Because graphite is a conductor, rocks containing graphite show a strong electromagnetic (EM) response. However, since sulfide minerals such as pyrite and pyrrhotite are also conductors, it is critical to be able to distinguish whether EM anomalies are caused by graphite or sulfides. The magnetic survey can help identify the cause of the EM anomaly. Graphite will show a magnetic low whereas a response caused by sulfides will show a magnetic high.

With respect to the Coosa drill grid, the TDEM survey showed a very good correlation between the EM conductors and the intercepts of graphitic schist. The TDEM results further suggest that the resource remains open to the southeast, northeast and southwest. The grid also had a moderate magnetic response that is consistent with the observed sulfide content in the drill core.

"The correlation of these preliminary results with a known resource of flake graphite is an important step forward for Alabama Graphite," Dr. Oliver continued. The final geophysical results will be used in conjunction with ongoing surface sampling to guide the next phase of exploration and metallurgical analysis."

About Alabama Graphite:

Alabama Graphite Corp., through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Alabama Graphite Company Inc., is a graphite exploration and development company whose flagship project "The Coosa Graphite Project" in Coosa County, Alabama is located in an area with significant historical production of crystalline flake graphite. The Company published an inaugural NI 43-101 in September of 2013. With the recent closing of $2.1mm in financing the Company will focus efforts on continuing to define the footprint of the "The Coosa Graphite Project" and to start work on the 100% owned "Hearst Graphite Property" in Northern Ontario.

Forward looking information

This release contains "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation, including predictions, projections and forecasts. Forward-looking information include, but are not limited to, statements that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including such things as future business strategy, competitive strengths, goals, expansion, growth of the Company's business, operations, plans and with respect to exploration results, the timing and success of exploration activities generally, permitting time lines, government regulation of exploration and mining operations, environmental risks, title disputes or claims, limitations on insurance coverage, timing and possible outcome of any pending litigation and timing and results of future resource estimates or future economic studies.

Often, but not always, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "planning", "planned", "expects" or "looking forward", "does not expect", "continues", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "potential", "anticipates", "does not anticipate" or "belief" or describes a "goal" or variation of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved.

Forward-looking information is based on a number of material factors and assumptions, including, the result of drilling and exploration activities, that contracted parties provide goods and/or services on the agreed timeframes, that equipment necessary for exploration is available as scheduled and does not incur unforeseen break downs, that no labour shortages or delays are incurred, that plant and equipment function as specified, that no unusual geological or technical problems occur, and that laboratory and other related services are available and perform as contracted. Forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks, future events, conditions, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, prediction, projection, forecast, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking information. Such factors include, among others, the interpretation and actual results of current exploration activities; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; future prices of graphite; possible variations in grade or recovery rates; failure of equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; the failure of contracted parties to perform; labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry; delays in obtaining governmental approvals or financing or in the completion of exploration, as well as those factors disclosed in the company's publicly filed documents. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information.
