Berkwood Resources Ltd. Reports 2014 Exploration Summary; Provides 2015 Drilling Plans
Berkwood is planning a 2015 program of geological mapping, hand trenching and sampling in the new QCA Zone to delineate the zone on surface, as well as additional ground magnetics surveying to infill and extend the current geophysical grid. Lac Guéret South and East: Berkwood continues to advance its 100% owned graphite projects in Quebec and is pleased with the progress made in 2014. Highlights include the acquisition of the Lac Guéret South Graphite Property and adjustments made to the mineral claims package of the company's Lac Guéret East Graphite Property, in order to maximize coverage of priority geological structures and known graphite prospects. Berkwood's Lac Guéret area projects now cover 8,057 hectares. The Lac Guéret South Graphite Property borders the southern boundary of Mason Graphite's Lac Guéret Project which has a NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate with measured & indicated mineral resources of 65.7 million tonnes grading 17.2% Cgr (including 9.7 million tonnes grading 31.2% Cgr). Berkwood's Lac Guéret East Graphite Property is adjacent to the eastern boundary of Mason Graphite's Lac Guéret Property. Berkwood's Lac Guéret East and South Graphite Properties share a similar geological environment to Mason Graphite`s Lac Guéret Property including along strike stratigraphic units and structures. From his summer 2014 field observations, Mr. Berclaz recommended a high resolution magnetic-electromagnetic (MAG-EM) helicopter-borne geophysical survey over the Lac Guéret South Property to rapidly advance the project. In October 2014 Prospectair Geosurveys Inc. of Gatineau, Quebec flew the survey which comprised 413 linear kilometres with a line spacing of 200 metres. Preliminary results show that the survey delineated an electromagnetic (EM) anomaly along a 1.8 kilometre trend, including a large circular conductive anomaly with a diameter of approximately 900 metres. Additional targets defined by the survey, include a strong conductor, 3 km in length, situated at the Property's northern border with Mason Graphite's advanced Lac Guéret Property. These newly generated exploration targets increase Berkwood's confidence that there is significant potential to discover new graphitic zones associated with these anomalies. Berkwood is planning a follow-up ground geophysics program to better define the conductors on the ground in order to guide prospecting, trenching and drilling planned for the 2015 field program.
