[{"type":"text","content":"Berkwood Receives Favourable Initial Results from Airborne Geophysical Survey at Lac Gueret South Graphite Property(via Thenewswire.ca)\n\n \nVancouver, BC / TNW-ACCESSWIRE / November 19th, 2014 / Berkwood Resources Ltd. (TSX.V: BKR) (\"Berkwood\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce preliminary results of a helicopter-borne magnetic (MAG) and time-domain electromagnetic (TDEM) survey recently completed over its Lac Gueret South Graphite Property (\"the Property\"), in northeast Quebec. The high-resolution geophysical survey, comprising 413 linear kilometres with a line spacing of 200 metres, was performed by Prospectair Geosurveys Inc. of Gatineau, Quebec and outlined several good conductors. The results were processed and interpreted by Dube Geoscience of Ottawa, Ontario. \n\n \n \nThe survey successfully delineated an electromagnetic (EM) anomaly along a 1.8 kilometre trend, including a large circular conductive anomaly with a diameter of approximately 900 metres. Additional targets defined by the survey, within the Lac Gueret South Graphite Property, include a strong bedrock conductor, 3 km in length, situated at the Property's northern border with Mason Graphite's advanced Lac Gueret Property.\n\n \n \nPreliminary analysis indicates that the anomalies are likely strong bedrock conductors which have electromagnetic Z component channels response consistent with a potential graphitic source. Geophysical analysis recommends the next course of action to be follow-up ground geophysics in the form of the PhiSpy ground TDEM system to better define the conductive source positions and their extents in order to guide precision prospecting, trenching and drilling in spring and summer 2015.\n\n \n \nThe newly generated exploration targets increase Berkwood's confidence that there is significant potential to discover new mineralized zones, which could enhance the value of Berkwood's Graphite property portfolio.\n\n \n \nBrian Buchanan CEO & Director of Berkwood Resources stated \"We consider the initial results to be very encouraging, furthering our objective of discovering and defining graphite targets in the newly acquired Lac Gueret South Graphite Property, which should allow us to quickly advance exploration on the project.\"\n\n \n \nAlain Berclaz, P.Geo a consultant to the Company and a Qualified Person under the definiti...
