Standard Graphite Options Historic Philibert Gold Project

26.07.2016  |  Marketwired
VANCOUVER, Jul 26, 2016 - Standard Graphite Corp. (TSX VENTURE:SGH) (the "Company" or "Standard"), is pleased to announce that it has signed a Mineral Property Option Agreement with SOQUEM pursuant to which Standard has been granted an option (the "Option") to earn 50% interest in Philibert Gold Project (the "Philibert Property") in Quebec.

Chris Bogart, President and CEO states, "The Philibert Property represents a significant milestone in our strategy to build shareholder value through targeted accretive acquisitions to our gold portfolio. The addition of a gold project at this stage of development, in a known mining district with extensive previous exploration, compliments our earlier acquisition of the Diego Gold project also in Quebec. The selection of the Philibert Property was based on numerous factors, including a historic gold estimate*, high exploration potential and proximity to the former producing Joe Mann mine**. We are especially pleased to have SOQUEM as a partner to develop this gold asset in Quebec. SOQUEM is a significant contributor to the mining sector in Quebec and have a substantial track record of mineral discovery, development and financing of Quebec mineral properties through Ressources Quebec and Investissement Quebec. They are an ideal partner for Standard as we develop our presence in Quebec."

he Philibert Property comprises 110 mining titles covering 5,392.57 hectares free of all encumbrance, restrictions, claims, environmental liabilities and royalties. The Philibert Property is located in the Chibougamau Mining Camp, 50km southwest of the town, road accessible, within 10km of power grid and of a non-operating mill.

An Economic Potential study completed by Groupe Conseil Roche Ltee (now Norda Stelo) in 1991 on behalf of SOQUEM included historic estimates of 1,393,042 tonnes grading 5.3 g/t Au*. The mineralization remains open laterally and at depth and covers only a small section of the Philibert Property. The main structure has been explored on approximately 1km strike, but remains underexplored for an additional 2km with a distinct magnetic signature characterizing the mineralized corridor. SOQUEM and its partners have drilled a total of 227 diamond-holes have for a total of 59,475 metres in the Philibert Property since 1983. In addition to hosting the Philibert mineralization, the property is well located in the western extension of the deformation corridor that passes through the former producing Joe Mann mine** six kilometres away.


Cautionary Notes

*The Company advises a qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves as such the Company is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. The resource calculation was part of an Economic Potential study of the Philibert Deposit and was calculated based on 189 diamond drill holes for a total of 39,945 meters of core using the best practice guide for the evaluation of gold deposits produced by the CRM (Centre de recherches minerals, now COREM). The resource was not prepared under current CIM definitions of mineral resources.
