Graphite Creek

The Property:

The Graphite Creek project is located on the Seward Peninsula of Alaska, USA, on privately held property.  The property hosts what is believed to be a large-flake, high-purity graphite resource and is in a conducive open-pit mining configuration to allow for future development due to the minimal overburden.  Graphite Creek is 65 kilometres north of Nome and 3 kilometres away from intertidal waters at Windy Cove. Furthermore, the project is situated 3 kilometres away from the nearest airstrip and approximately 20 kilometres away from the nearest road systems.  The Graphite Creek property is approximately 7,680 acres or 3,108 hectares in size now with 72 claims in total.

Geologic Summary:

The Graphite Creek project has a strike length of approximately 5 kilometres with an average thickness of 100 metres.  The exposed dip length is between 100 to 200 metres deep with an interval containing over 200 million tonnes of graphite-bearing rocks.

Graphite Creek is primarily hosted by a distinctive garnet biotite quartz schist interval that contains coarse, crystalline flake graphite in disseminations and high-grade graphite segregations and lenses.  This property is graphite-rich with grades ranging from a few percent in biotite quartz schist to 60% Cg in high-grade lenses.  In a host schist interval that is continuous over 5 km of strike length, commonly has a thickness of 100 metres, and is exposed over dip lengths of 100 to 200 metres.
