Graphite Partnership Established with Amseco Exploration

St-Georges Platinum and Base Metals Ltd. (CNSX:SX)(OTCQX:SXOOF)(BSE:85G) is
pleased to announce that it teams up with Amseco Exploration Ltd. in order to
acquire and explore more than 10,110 hectares in a district known to host
multiple graphite occurrences these properties were acquired by the staking of
crown lands and will result in no dilution to our shareholders. 


The companies are currently negotiating the terms of their joint-venture. They
are expecting to initiate work on the property in early spring. Historical
compilation, surface geophysics and mapping will add further work on the
acquired claims in addition to the initial sampling conducted on the Tetepisca
properties. 


St-Georges recently announced that it increase the size of its Tetepisca
property after confirming the existence of surface grab samples that yielded
results in the range of 50.9% to 58.1% of Carbon Graphite in the area. 


The Tetepisca Properties 

Tetepisca West, Canadian Goose and Wooden Lake properties. 

These properties are all located in the general area of the south west bank of
the Manicouagan Reservoir, approximately 45 km from the Manic V electric dam, 21
km south-west of the Lac Geret Project of Cliff Resources and 215 km from the
Quebec North Shore deep see port town of Baie-Comeau. Access is done via the 389
national road (Baie-Comeau-Labrador) and logging roads.


The Tetepisca West Property consist of 2 claim blocks directly adjacent to the
south-west (18 claims) and west (5 claims) of St-Georges current Tetepisca
property and are also along the multi-kilometric corridor of metasediments or
sediments Identified by the Ministry of Natural Resources of Quebec as the
Proterozoic Nault Formation. The Canadian Goose Property is located
approximately 5 km further west and is made of one block of 28 claims. 


The Wooden Lake Property is further to the south east of the Lake Tetepisca
property, neighbored to the North by Cliff Resources and Focus Metals recently
acquired Tetepisca claims block. The property consists of 61 claims.


The Southern Properties 

Pike River, Lake 222 and the Polynesian Lake Graphite properties 

Located approximately 120 km North West of the deep sea port city of Baie-Comeau
on the Quebec North Shore and accessible by logging roads these 3 properties are
located in the vicinity of St-Georges Platinum "Julie" Nickel-Copper-Cobalt
project. Like St-Georges' Julie property, on which multiple disseminated
graphite occurrences were reported historically, these properties are along a
south-west to north-east trend that was originally explored for Nickel and
Copper by Otokumpu Mines Inc. in the late 90's. A helicopter-borne EM and MAG
geophysical survey consisting of 2,600 km of flight path in the region was
performed. The airborne program located multiple conductors, some of which
coinciding with magnetic anomalies. 


Pike River Property is located approximately 10 km south west of St-Georges'
Julie property and consist of one block of 11 claims. 15 km to the north east
and directly bordering the southern limits of St-Georges' Julie Property is the
Lake 222 Property consisting of one block of 19 claims. Further to the north
east for another 12 km is located the Polynesian Lake Property made of one block
of 37 claims. 


Graphite occurs in two main rock types: 1) As accessory mineral with garnet in
an intensely foliated, non-magnetic grey paragneiss and 2), in sequences of
paragneiss interlayered with a cataclastic gabbro. There are graphitic layers
(30 cm-thick) and disseminated streaks through the rock in concentrations of 5
to 10 percent. 


The company cautions that it has not verified the quality and accuracy of any of
the historic sampling results reported in this news release which predates the
introduction of National Instrument 43-101 and cautions readers not to rely upon
them. The historic figures were generated from sources believed to be reliable;
however, they have not been confirmed. Although the sampling results are
relevant, they have not been verified. These properties have had very limited
amount of exploration work done to identify the potential if any, for
significant presence of graphite occurrences. It is likely possible that the
results reported are isolated in nature and cannot be relied upon to evaluate
these properties at this very early stage of their exploration. 


Graphite Market 

In the past couples years, the graphite market has doubled to an unforeseen
1-1.2 million tons and is expected to keep rising. 40% of that figure is flake
graphite for which new uses are found in emerging technologies and applications,
the most significant being Lithium-ion batteries. The latter is expected to
raise demand for flake graphite to nearly 1.6 million tons in the next 10 years,
as the demand for electric vehicles and lithium battery technology booms.
Moreover, the demand of graphite for traditional uses is rising as emerging
countries enter an era of industrial modernization. The automotive and steel
industries account as the largest demand in graphite, rising by 5% annually.
Other considerable applications of graphite include Nuclear Power, Fuel-cells,
Solar-thermal collectors, Vanadium batteries and much more.
