[{"type":"text","content":" Montreal, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - August 1, 2024) - E-Power Resources Inc. (CSE: EPR) (\"E-Power\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to report results from the first phase of the 2024 exploration program on the Company's flagship Tetepisca flake graphite property located in the North Shore region of Québec. Highlights include the discovery of graphite bearing metamorphic rocks along three conductor trends which include a high of 31 % Cg (Graphite Carbon) from an outcrop grab sample and a sample of proximal float rock which returned a value of 24.8% Cg from a 4th conductor target area. James Cross, President and CEO of E-Power commented: \"We are completing metallurgical and mineralogical chacterization studies on our Tetepisca Property to determine product quality and applicability to end users. At the same time, we are conducting a propecting program focussed on the northern end of our property. The prospecting is to evaluate our large land position in an effort to demonstrate large tonnage potential in multiple target areas. The results of the prospecting completed to date, including high grade grab samples, are very enouraging. We look forward to the metallurgical test work results as well as continued success in the field program through the 2024 exploration campaign.\" Exploration Update The 2024 exploration program being completed on the tetepisca property includes: The collection of a 1-tonne sample, approximately 250 kg from each of four graphite surface showings located in the southern part of the property (Phase 1 sampling and geological mapping). Early stage geological and geophysical prospecting at selected target areas priotizing the lesser explored northern part the property. Collect a bulk sample of 20-30 tonnes collectively from 2 or 3 selected target areas (showings) based on the results of the Phase 1 detailed mapping and sampling. The permit application for this work has been submitted. E-Power collected a total of 1,037 kilograms (1.037 tonnes) comprising four bulk samples from three graphite showings (2 samples taken from the Graphi West target area) on the Tetepisca property (locations of showings indicated on Map 1). Metallurgical testwork including production of graphite concentrates and graphite flake size distribution analysis is underway at Volt Carbon Technologies Inc.'s dry separation facility in Sca...
