Canada Carbon Completes Initial Prospecting Campaign at Asbury
2021年9月9日 - 10:30PM
Canada Carbon Inc. (the “Company”) (TSX-V: CCB), (FF: U7N1) is
pleased to announce that a field prospecting campaign was completed
over historical electromagnetic anomalies (‘EM’) on its Asbury
claims (‘the Property’).
From July 26, 2021 to July 30, 2021, a nine
person team prospected, mapped and sampled the property equipped
with two Bm4+ ‘Beep Mat’ electromagnetic detectors used to follow
multiple conductors found in a 2013 Heliborne Magnetic and TDEM
survey by Focus Graphite (DUBE,2013). Three geological fold
patterns in the conductor anomalies were defined from the 2013
survey. Folding is very significant for graphite exploration since
it can allow a thickening and enrichment of the graphitic horizon
along the fold hinge. One of these folds is located at the
historical Asbury mine, whereas two others had yet to be
investigated in detail.
The Property is overlain by one to two metres of
glacial till, as is commonly encountered in this part of Quebec. A
team using a Beep Mat EM detector attempted to locate the aerial
conductors by crossing the surface perpendicular to their strike.
When a conductive target was identified, trenching was conducted in
an attempt to sample any subcropping mineralization. Other team
members scouted the area seeking potential outcrop or mineralized
boulders at surface. As the Beep Mat could only detect conductors
within one metre of surface, a number of the aerial conductors were
not confirmed during this preliminary survey.
A total of 59 grab samples were taken, and were
bagged and tagged on site. Figure 1 shows conductor anomalies on
the Property and the associated rock samples taken during the field
work which will provide the Company with a strong indication as to
the potential grade and quantity of graphite associated with some
of the conductors.

Additionally, the Company took 42 till samples,
located glacially down-ice from the conductive anomalies. These
till samples will be assayed to determine whether there may be
zones of enriched mineralization not detected in the grab sampling
program.
All of the samples were shipped to Actlab in
Ancaster, Ontario for graphitic carbon (“Cg”) analysis. Both rock
and till samples will be prepared using method RX1-Graphitic in
which the samples undergo drying, crushing up to 90% passing
through a #10 square-mesh screen, riffle splitting (250 gram) and
pulverization to 95% passing a 105 um square-mesh screen. Graphitic
carbon is then determined by multistage furnace treatment and
infrared absorption, with a 0.05% detection limit using analysis
package 4F-C-Graphitic.
The Company’s next step will be to proceed with
a PhiSpy survey (a ground TDEM survey), followed by a second
prospecting survey to assay the near-surface conductor anomalies.
The review of historical data is still on-going, and will be
combined with recent field observations. Based on this field work
and analysis of historical data conducted to-date, we recently
acquired an additional 3 claims in the area contiguous to our
existing claims.
Olga Nikitovic, Interim CEO, commented, “We are
pleased to start exploration work on the promising Asbury Property.
The large number of conductive anomalies, some in folded structures
as seen at the past-producing Asbury Mine, are encouraging signs
that we may discover significant graphite mineralization on the
Property. Assessing the quality of the graphite will be one of our
priorities as we move forward in our exploration program.”
The Asbury Property. The Asbury
Property contains the past-producing Asbury Graphite Mine, and is
comprised of 25 claims, for a total of 1,385 ha. It is located
8.1km northeast of Notre-Dame-Du-Laus in the Laurentides Region of
southern Quebec. The property belongs to the Grenville Province
with varying degrees of metamorphism. The eastern portion of the
property is composed of crystalline limestone, quartzite and
paragneiss with a band of graphitic limestone contained within a
blue grey biotitic quartzite. Marble and impure quartzite are found
within the property, containing graphite flakes and garnets. These
rocks are in accordance with the proposed skarn type deposit found
in Asbury (Charbonneau, 2012).
The Asbury claims include some land held by
private landowners however, the 8.48KM total length of EM
conductors which the Company is targeting are not located on
privately held land.
