Triton Reports Initial Drill Results from Anucabe Graphite Project

Triton Minerals Ltd. (ASX:TON) reported initial drill results for its Mozambique-based Ancuabe graphite project. The company focused on the T12 prospect, completing 11 diamond and 18 reverse-circulation drill holes.
Highlights include:

• Limited initial drilling program completed at T12
• Significant graphite mineralization confirmed by drilling from surface to vertical depths of 105m
• Graphite intersections >5%TGC intersected in every hole completed at T12 Prospect
• Mineralisation dominated by jumbo flake graphite (>300µ) with 43% of the graphite flakes recovered being greater than 500µ
• Only the western margins of a 4km long target drill tested
• T16 graphite discovery located 4km east of T12

Brad Boyle, managing director of Triton, commented:

The first interim results from Triton’s initial exploration program at the Ancuabe T12 prospect have confirmed that the extensive graphite that is exposed at surface also extends to depth with mineralisation developed over true widths of 100m. Triton is pleased to learn that every hole drilled to date has intersected intervals of very large flake graphite at grades that are as expected for this style of deposit.
Only a small percentage of the targeted area has so far been drill-tested, and while Triton considers these initial results to be encouraging, the full potential of the project is yet to be realised.
