The net proceeds of the Offering will be used for exploration and development of the Company’s Graphite Creek Project and for general working capital purposes.
“We are pleased Taiga Mining has again supported us and its team continues to provide guidance as we move our project forward,” said Anthony Huston, President and Chief Executive Officer of Graphite One. “We are also pleased to welcome new Alaskan investors to the project with this financing. The projected global demand for graphite continues to grow, as does the need for U.S. sources at a time when the U.S. is 100% import-dependent for its strategic graphite supply.”

No new insiders were created, nor any change of control occurred, as a result of this Offering.

ABOUT GRAPHITE ONE RESOURCES INC.
GRAPHITE ONE RESOURCES INC. (TSX VENTURE:GPH)(OTCQB:GPHOF) continues to develop its Graphite One Project (the “Project”), whereby the Company could potentially become an American producer of high grade Coated Spherical Graphite (“CSG”) that is integrated with a domestic graphite resource. The Project is proposed as a vertically integrated enterprise to mine, process and manufacture high grade CSG primarily for the lithium-ion electric vehicle battery market. As set forth in the Company’s Preliminary Economic Assessment, potential graphite mineralization mined from the Company’s Graphite Creek Property, is expected to be processed into concentrate at a graphite processing plant. The proposed processing plant would be located on the Graphite Creek Property situated on the Seward Peninsula about 60 kilometers north of Nome, Alaska. CSG and other value-added graphite products, would likely be manufactured from the concentrate at the Company’s proposed graphite product manufacturing facility, the location of which is the subject of further study and analysis. The Company intends to make a production decision on the Project once a feasibility study is completed.
