Caribou King Resources Reports Up to 99.4 Percent Graphitic Carbon

Caribou King Resources (TSXV:CKR) announced purity results of up to 99.4 percent graphitic carbon from initial purity tests at its Buckingham flake/lump graphite property. Results listed in Tuesday’s release were obtained through a single flotation test without process optimization.

As quoted in the press release:

Initial testing from the first sample, with a head grade of 55.8% Cg (57.9% total C), was concentrated by grinding and flotation and was further divided into ten size fractions, including: +28 (Super Jumbo Flake), +35 (Jumbo Flake), +48 (Jumbo Flake) and +65 mesh (Large Flake).

Results have now demonstrated that these above mentioned concentrate fractions, ranging from large flake to super jumbo flake, total 46.7% of the sample. Large flakes size (+65 mesh or > 212 microns) returned 98.4 % Cg with the highest assay of 99.4 % Cg being returned from the +48 mesh fraction.

Caribou King CEO, Michael B. England, said:

These are exciting times for Caribou. Buckingham is quickly showing us it is a very pure, high purity graphite project with graphite content of at least 98.4% coming from 28 to 65 (large to jumbo) mesh tests.
