The company has appointed George Downing Estate Drilling of Grenville-sur-la-Rouge, Quebec to complete at least 350m of NQ sized diamond drill holes (DDH).

The meterage will be divided in eight shallow holes to examine the graphitic veins that were disclosed earlier at depth and along both its north and south extensions. Work on the programme is expected to be completed in a week.

Canada Carbon interim CEO & director Bruce Duncan said drilling will commence shortly and will focus on testing several of our 17 recently identified EM anomalies.

"Drill testing the extension of the graphite vein system will allow an estimation of the quantity of vein material present within this particular area of the Miller Property," Duncan added.

The Miller Graphite Mine, located in Grenville Township in Quebec, is a past graphite and mica producer with unknown graphite reserves remaining.
