Ashburton Ventures Discovers New Lump-Vein Graphite-bearing Zone

Ashburton Ventures Inc. (TSXV:ABR) released its latest outcrop sampling assay results and announced the discovery of a new lump-vein graphite-bearing zone at its Quebec-based Buckingham graphite property.
As quoted in the press release:

A total of 18 outcrop samples were taken from two areas: (1) a newly-discovered lump-vein bearing graphitic zone located approximately 300 metres northeast along strike from the current drilling area and; (2) in and around the zone of current drilling.
New Lump-Vein Bearing Graphitic Zone Sampling
Nine outcrop samples were taken from the newly discovered location 300 metres north of the current drilling area and consist of a mixture of disseminated and lump-vein samples. Graphitic showings were sampled over approximately 80 metres in this area, including an exposure consisting of fractured pegmatite measuring at least 30 metres across and containing crystalline lump-vein graphite in fractures. Lump vein samples from this area assayed up to 68.0% Cg and sampling highlights from this area are shown in Table 1.
Drilling Area Sampling
9 outcrop samples were taken in and around the area of current drilling and consist entirely of disseminated graphite. The positive assay results in this area provide further evidence of continuity of mineralization between drilling locations and projection of mineralization identified in drill intervals towards the surface. Highlights from sampling in this area are shown in Table 2.
