VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Feb. 6, 2012) -Standard Graphite Corp. (TSX VENTURE:SGH) (the "Company) is pleased to announce that it has completed a strategic staking program of approximately 14,500 ha surrounding the company's existing properties in Quebec.
"Standard is pleased to have consolidated the land positions contiguous to our portfolio of properties in Quebec," says Chris Bogart, President & CEO. "Our technical team has successfully identified and secured all the areas of geologic potential that are of interest to our development of our graphite projects in anticipation of our upcoming exploration programs."
Standard Graphite's nine Quebec properties are all located within these districts and centered on the metasedimentary belts of the Grenville with known marble/gneiss lithologies considered essential to host graphite deposit and having been metamorphosed to sufficiently high grade to produce the larger graphite flakes. They are located within the three major graphite districts in Quebec; Wakefield, North Shore and New Quebec with notable deposits such as Lac des Iles (Timcal) and Lac Knife (Focus Metals).
