Berkwood Identifies Targets at Lac Gueuret South Graphite Property

Berkwood Resources Ltd. (TSXV:BKR) announced the results of a helicopter-borne magnetic and time-domain electromagnetic survey on its Quebec-based Lac Gueret South graphite property.

As quoted in the press release:

The survey successfully identified a total of 101 electromagnetic (EM) anomalies in six conductive and prospective targets comprising conductor lineaments totalling over 13 kilometres of cumulative length along multiple flight lines.

The six conductive targets are all associated with magnetic anomalies. In the exploration context of the Lac Guéret area, where high grade graphite is the targeted mineralization and recognized to be associated with magnetic sulfides and iron formations, the six targets contain the expected magnetic and EM geophysical signature for a potential graphitic source.

Targets 1 and 2, located respectively in the western and northern part of the property, are of particular interest.  Targets 1 and 2 define strong conductors ranging from 1.8 to 3 kilometres in length and up to 845 and 425 metres in width respectively. They are likely caused by repetition and thickening of conductive horizons along complex interfolded geological structures.

The next step at the project will be ground geophysics aimed at better defining the best conductive lineaments. That will allow the company to “prioritize planned detailed mapping, prospecting, channel sampling and drilling during 2015.”

Brian Buchanan, CEO and director of Berkwood, commented:

We are very pleased with these newly generated geophysical and exploration targets, which should allow us to advance exploration for graphite zones at the Lac Guéret South Graphite Property to a ready-to-drill stage during the coming year.
