Graphano Expands Eastern Graphite Trend with Notable Near-Surface Mineralization Results at Standard Mine Graphite Project

29.02.2024  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, February 29, 2024 - Graphano Energy Ltd. (TSXV: GEL) (OTCQB: GELEF) (FSE: 97G0) ("Graphano" or the "Company") is pleased to report the final assay results from the 2023-24 winter drilling program at its 100% owned Standard Mine Project ("Standard"). The primary focus of the drilling program was on graphite zone expansion, following up on the excellent results from the 2022-23 trenching and drilling programs.

Luisa Moreno, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated: "Leveraging the conclusive results from our winter drilling program at Standard, we are pleased to announce the identification of a promising sector of near-surface mineralization on the northern extension of our Eastern Trend. The assay results underscore the expanding potential of our graphite zones. This successful exploration sets the stage for our ongoing Mineral Resource estimation work and positions us strategically for continued expansion in 2024."

The four drill holes reported in this update were drilled as step-outs to extend mineralization along the Eastern Trend by an additional 250m strike length. The Eastern Trend has now been tested by trenching and drilling, at shallow depths over an approximate 500m strike length. The mineralization remains open in both the strike and dip directions.

Key Highlights from the Eastern Graphite Trend (See Full Results in Table 1)

Current Holes - North Extension

  • Drill Hole ST23-31 intersected 6.09% graphitic carbon (Cg) over 13.06 metres (m) starting at 20.33m drilled depth, including 11.32% Cg over 4.47m at 20.33m drilled depth; and

  • Drill Hole ST23-24 intersected 5.60% Cg over 4.75m at 52.96m drilled depth.

Previous Holes - South Extension

  • Drill Hole ST23-26 intersected 9.79% Cg over 18.84m starting at 72.39 m drilled depth; and

  • Drill Hole ST23-17 intersected 11.88% Cg over 13.32m at 28.61m drilled depth, including 14.44% Cg over 8.68 m at 31.13m drilled depth.

(Note: All intersections reported are based on drilled width and have not been converted to the true width. True widths are not currently known.)

Holes ST23-24, 28, 30 and 31 evaluated the northern extension of the Eastern Trend. Assay results from the four holes are presented in Table 1 and drill hole locations in Figure 2. The northern most holes of the program, ST23-24 and 31, both encountered significant graphite mineralization, with hole ST23-31 grading 6.09% Cg over a 13.06m down-hole thickness. These encouraging near surface results highlight the considerable untested potential at Standard. Further exploration is warranted to follow-up this new sector of mineralization on the property.

Select samples from the 17 holes drilled from Standard were submitted for assay analysis. A total of 1,991m were drilled during the program. All drill core samples were sampled, stored and shipped using industry best practices and were delivered to Activation Laboratories ("ACTLABS"), Ancaster, Ontario, for sample preparation and analyses using laboratories' Code 4F-C Graphitic, analyzing C-Graphite (infrared) where the sample is subjected to a multistage furnace treatment to remove all forms of carbon with the exception of graphitic carbon; and C-Total (infrared). ACTLABS is an independent commercial, accredited ISO Certified Laboratory. The core sample program also included field duplicates, blanks and a graphite standard sample for quality control and quality assurance (QA/QC) purposes.
