[{"type":"text","content":"Berkwood Receives Work Recommendations and Plans Airborne Geophysics on Graphite Properties and Announces Private Placement(via Thenewswire.ca)\n\n \nVancouver, BC / TNW-ACCESSWIRE / September 25th, 2014 / Berkwood Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: BKR) (\"Berkwood\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that geologist, Alain Berclaz, P. Geo and CEO of Abgeoconseil Inc. consultants, has returned from a site visit to the Company's Lac Gueret South and East Graphite Properties (\"the Properties\"), in Northeastern Quebec.\n\n \n \nOver the duration of his field examinations, Mr. Berclaz visited Berkwood's newly acquired 5,788 Ha Lac Gueret South Graphite Property as well as Berkwood's 100% owned Lac Gueret East Graphite Property (see attached map). From his historical work compilation and field observations, Mr. Berclaz notes that a fieldwork program with the objective to delineate high-quality conductors associated with new prospective Graphite targets or with extensions on strike with known massive Graphite mineralization is of particular interest within Berkwood's Lac Gueret South Property and should be of the highest priority. His recommendation for initial fieldwork in order to rapidly advance the project to a drilling stage, is to immediately commence with a detailed magnetic-electromagnetic (MAG-EM) helicopter-borne geophysical survey.\n\n \n \nThe Lac Gueret South Graphite Property borders the southern boundary of Mason Graphite's significant Lac Gueret Project where a NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate with measured & indicated mineral resources of 50 million tonnes grading 15.6% Cgr (including 6.6 million tonnes grading 32.4% Cgr) was announced. Mr. Berclaz also traversed Berkwood's Lac Gueret East Graphite Property which borders the eastern boundary of Mason Graphite's Lac Gueret Project.\n\n \n \nThe Properties are part of the Archean Ulamen Complex (2780 to 2680 Ma) mainly composed of (i) gneissic tonalite and granulitic tonalite gneisses interlayered with (ii) minor mafic metavolcanics and metagabbros. The Archean Ulamen Complex contains units of Paleoproterozoic units reported to be metasedimentary in origin and stratigraphically correlated with the Gagnon Group. Units of the Gagnon Group present on or adjacent to the Properties include: biotite, garnet, sillimanite paragneisses and graphitic schists of the...
