[{"type":"text","content":"October 17th, 2017 / TheNewswire / VANCOUVER, B.C. Berkwood Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: BKR, FSE: BR2N, WKN: A110N3) (\"Berkwood\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that it has completed Phase 1 of the drill program on its Lac Gueret Project (the \"Project\"). A total of 13 planned diamond drill holes were completed from nine (9) separate drill sites for a total of 1,806.54m drilled. Targeted graphite (\"Cgr\") was intersected in every hole drilled. The project, which includes extensions, announced on September 6th, totals 19,884Ha covered by 368 claims surrounding a planned-to-be producing graphite deposit. Shareholders can view two videos, one of them in virtual reality, shot on location during Phase 1 of the drill program by visiting the Company's website. Both videos are located on Berkwood's home page at the bottom: www.berkwoodresources.com. This release documents significant intervals and ideas arising from work on Section 3300E, the easternmost section drilled thus far. The final three drill holes were each drilled from a separate prepared drill site located about 100m apart: each hole was aligned on a 360? azimuth and inclined at about -45?. Hole BK1-11-17 (144.78m in length to End of Hole (\"EOH\") intersected 2 short graphite schist intercepts between 19.88 and 24.17m (4.29m) and 86.27 - 89.06m (2.84m). Hole BK1-12-17 (150.88m to EOH) returned five Cgr intercepts between 25.32 - 33.93m (8.61m), 54.71 - 56.39m (1.68m), 83.38 - 84.74m (1.35m), 97.22 - 98.96m (1.74m) and 137.59 - 144.23m (11.67m). Hole BK1-13-17 (150.88 m to EOH) returned five Cgr intercepts between 7.47 - 8.29m (0.82m), 37.47 - 49.91m (12.44m), 97.76 - 109.38m (11.62m), 117.60 - 124.38m (11.78m) and 124.38 - 141.79m (17.41m). Drilling on Section 3300E is of lower hole density than on Sections 3200E and 3100E previously reported, with drilling being undertaken subject to two current drilling permits issued by regulators in Quebec. The Company has submitted 381 samples (comprising 263 graphite samples, 98 bracket samples, and 10 each of duplicate core samples and field blank QA/QC material) to MS Analytical Laboratories in Langley, BC. The samples were shipped as a single shipment comprising two batches under a single chain of custody protocol. The Lac Gueret Project is located in Cote-Nord, Quebec, a three hour drive from Baie-Comeau in an area of ve...
