Canada Carbon Files NI 43-101 Report on Sedar

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwired – Jan. 27, 2017) – Canada Carbon Inc. (TSXV:CCB) reports that it has filed on SEDAR the National Instrument (“NI”) 43-101 report of the updated Mineral Resource Estimate for its flagship 100% owned Miller Graphite Project located 80 kilometres (“km”) west of Montréal, near Grenville, Québec. (See Company news release dated December 14^th, 2016 for full details.)
The Resource Estimate was prepared pursuant to Canadian Securities Administrators’ N I 43-101 by the independent firm SGS Canada Inc. (“SGS”) of Blainville, Quebec. The updated Resource Estimate includes an indicated resource of 2.65Mt (“million tonnes”) with an average grade of 0.80% graphite, and an inferred resource of 7.56Mt with an average grade of 0.77% graphite, within the boundaries of an optimized open pit mine model. The cut off grade for the Mineral resources was established at 0.50% graphite. The new pit constrained graphite resources have increased by 379% compared to what was reported in the Company’s Miller Project Preliminary Economic Assessment, filed to SEDAR on April 14^th, 2016. A cross section figure of the pit is available on Canada Carbon’s website (https://www.canadacarbon.com/images/CCBCrossSection.jpg).
Mineral Resource Estimation Parameters
The Mineral Resources were estimated by Jean-Philippe Paiement, P.Geo., M.Sc., of SGS with an effective date of November 23, 2016. This estimate is the second Mineral Resource Estimate produced by Canada Carbon since the acquisition of the Miller property in September 2013. The Mineral Resources were estimated using the following geological and resource block modeling parameters which are based on geological interpretations, geostatistical studies and best practices in mineral estimation:
Graphite Mineral Resources

• Mineral Resources were estimated from the diamond drill holes and channels analytical results completed by Canada Carbon since 2013. A total of 151 drill holes and 96 surface/channels, comprising 8,148 assays were used for the mineral resources model.
• The 3-D modeling of graphite Mineral Resources was conducted using a minimum cut-off grade of 0.50% Cg over a 2 m horizontal thickness within a preliminary lithological model. The initial mineralized solids were developed using Leapfrog©, and subsequently remodelled within SGS’s proprietary modeling software Genesis©.
• Assay data were composited to 1.5m.
• The interpolation was conducted using Ordinary Kriging of the low grade graphite mineralization and Indicator Kriging for the high grade graphite veins.
• The block model was defined by a block size of 5 m long by 5 m wide by 5 m thick and covers a strike length of approximately 1,030 m to a maximal depth of 170 m below surface. The modeled graphite mineralization is open both at depth and strike.
• The Mineral Resources were constrained within the boundaries of an optimized pit shell using the parameters stated in Table 2 below. All parameters were derived and updated from the economic assessment process associated with the Company’s Miller Project PEA. Any interpolated blocks of the resource model located outside of the optimized pit shell are not included in the Mineral Resources.
• All dollar values in Table 1 are expressed in Canadian dollars, with the exception of the revenue value for the thermally treated graphite, assumed to be US$ 13,000/tonne. At an assumed currency exchange rate of 0.75, the revenue/tonne is approximately CDN$ 17,300.

Cautionary Note: Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no guarantee that all or any part of the Mineral Resource will be converted into a Mineral Reserve. Inferred Resources are considered too geologically speculative to have mining and economic considerations applied to them and to be categorized as Mineral Reserves (as defined in NI 43-101). Additional trenching and/or drilling will be required to convert Inferred Mineral Resources to Measured or Indicated Mineral Resources. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
