Canadian International Minerals Inc. (CIN-TSX.V) Updates Miller Graphite Project near the Albany discovery

About this update from Egr Exploration Ltd

[{"type":"text","content":"Canadian International Minerals Inc. (CIN-TSX.V) Updates Miller Graphite Project near the Albany discovery(via Thenewswire.ca)\n\n \nCanadian International Minerals Inc. (the \"Company\" \"CIN\") is pleased to announce that it has located the historic Miller graphite vein in the emerging graphite exploration play centred on the Albany Graphite Project of Zenyatta Ventures Ltd. in Northern Ontario.\n\n \n \nThe Company currently owns 50% of the property, with an option to increase its interest to 100% under an agreement with the staking syndicate. The property is accessible by forestry roads, and further evaluation is being planned in light of increased interest in the Albany hydrothermal graphite discovery. The property, which includes the Miller graphite occurrence, is located in the Foch Township, and consists of a single claim, extending over 15 located units, with an aerial extent of 240 hectares. The claims were staked in May 2012, prior to the recent land acquisitions in the vicinity (CIN news release dated May 1, 2012). \n\n \n \nThe Miller graphite showing is described in a report of the Ontario Geological Survey by Lorne Luhta, M.Sc., and is included in the 1989 Report of the Timmins Resident Geologist:\n\n\n \nSamples of graphite collected by the Timmins Resident Geologist staff returned analysis of 30.4% and 30.3% carbon. Flake size averages 1 millimetre but some flakes up to 3 millimetre. The sample may have the potential of producing high grade flakes in the minus 300, plus 150 micron fraction.\n\n\n \nThe underlying geology consists of an east west striking sequence of quartzites and gneisses. Interbedded with the gneisses are graphite rich beds of medium grained granular textured quartzites.\n\n \n \nThe historic showings, and new, previously undocumented graphite occurrences coincident with resistivity low airborne geophysical anomalies (OGS Map 60-028, 2001), have been located by the syndicate. Recent samples of the vein have been processed by a major private graphite producer. Initial results confirm the occurrence as described by the Ontario Geological Survey. \n\n \n \nThe technical data in this news release has been reviewed by Thomas Hasek, P. Eng. a Qualified Person under the terms of N.I. 43-101.\n\n\n \nOn behalf of the Board of Directors, \n\n \n \n\"Michael E. Schuss\"\n\n \n \nMichael E. Schuss\n\n\n ...
