About the Grand Lac du Nord Graphite Project
The Grand Lac du Nord Property (the "Property") consists of one contiguous claim block totaling approximately 2,009 hectares (20.09 km2) located approximately 140 kilometers northwest of Sept-Iles, Quebec. The property is accessible via paved and logging roads.
The Property was previously explored by SOQUEM, Inc. following up on airborne electromagnetic (EM) anomalies. A 2012 exploration program completed by Big North Graphite Corp., consisting of graphite grab and channel sample assay results, confirmed a multiple graphite bearing structure covering an area approximately 4 kilometres by 2 kilometres.
