Alabama Graphite runs geophysics at Bama, Coosa

ALABAMA GRAPHITE COMPLETES GROUND GEOPHYSICAL SURVEYS AT ITS ALABAMA USA GRAPHITE PROJECTS

Alabama Graphite Corp. has completed ground geophysical surveys at the recently acquired, prior-producing, Bama mine graphite project, as well as some additional areas at the Coosa project in Alabama. The surveys were conducted by KLM Geoscience using a GEM2 device.

GEM2 is a frequency domain electromagnetic system that is a cost-effective technique for detecting near-surface (oxidized) graphite mineralization. A previous survey at the Coosa project demonstrated that it produced the highest rate of detection with the lowest rate of false-positives of any of the techniques tested. A total of 70 additional line kilometres were run at the Coosa project to augment the 54.7 kilometres from the survey run in July, 2014. An additional 80.7 kilometres were run at the recently acquired Bama mine project in Chilton county. The GEM2 data are currently being processed and will be used to guide exploration/drilling work at both projects.

"Because of the large land position controlled by Alabama graphite, a cost-effective way of evaluating the acreage is of critical importance to focus the company's efforts," commented Ron S. Roda, chief executive officer. "Our previous experience in using the GEM2 instrument as a prelude to sonic drilling at the Coosa project showed a very high degree of correlation with graphite mineralization. We expect to use these survey results at both the Coosa and Bama mine projects to guide drill programs to begin in the coming weeks."

Rick Keevil, PGeo, a director of the company and vice-president of project development, a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed the contents of this press release.
