GMA and graphite The graphite stocks are on fire and yet no one seems to recognize that we have good graphite ground that has been previously worked on. Some of the plays have not even seen any work - so we should find new buyers for the stock as not only do they get the possibility of graphite but the also get an advanced play in REE. For those that have not seen the Graphite play:
Curières Graphite Project
The Curières project is composed of 45 claims located 50 km east of Mont-Laurier and covering an area of 2,465 hectares in Mousseau and Brunet Townships. The main lithologies on the Property are quartzite, biotite gneiss and graphitic gneiss. Previous works were performed by Resources Graphicor in the early nineties (90-93) and consisted of systematic geological mapping, prospecting and sampling, Max-Min electromagnetic survey and 32 hand-made trenches to collect large grab samples.
The Property hosts a dozen N-S to NE-SW graphitic horizons that are well defined by electromagnetic conductors, outcrops, and hand-made trenches. Individual graphitic horizons can be followed more or less intermittently over strike lengths of one to nine kilometres. Where outcropping, the graphitic horizons are usually 2-3 meters thick. Due to the high grade metamorphism, the graphite is described as flaky and comparatively coarse. The 32 grab samples indicate significant graphite potential with results of graphite varying between 3-5% and 10-15%, with five samples returning over 20% (high of 28.36%).
