Reports Promising Final Results from its Lac Tétépisca, Québec Drilling Program: 81.7 m Grading 13.4% Graphitic Carbon (Cg) - Including 31.7 m Sub-Intercept Grading 18.1% CgFocus' two graphite-rich Québec properties, Lac Tétépisca and Lac Knife, continue to yield results that suggest they offer significant sources of high grade, high-quality flake graphite to supply North America's electric battery and green energy industries KINGSTON, ON / ACCESSWIRE / June 15, 2021 / Focus Graphite Inc. (TSX-V:FMS) (the \" Company \" or \" Focus Graphite \") is pleased to announce encouraging results from its 2019-2020 infill core drilling program at its wholly owned Lac Tétépisca Graphite Project, located southwest of the Manicouagan reservoir in the Côte-Nord administrative district of Québec.\"Based on the results from our previous three drill programs targeting the Manicouagan-Ouest graphitic corridor, we knew our Lac Tétépisca property had the potential to host a significant flake graphite deposit, but these latest drilling results are even better than we could have predicted,\" said Marc Roy, President and CEO of Focus Graphite. \"It's an important day for Focus as we prepare to move the Lac Tétépisca project to the mineral resources estimation stage, and we are well on our way to taking our place as a leading flake graphite supplier to meet the growing demand for lithium-ion batteries and other clean energy technologies.\"Mr. Roy continued, \"The United States is 100% reliant on imports for flake graphite, and with these impressive Lac Tétépisca results, along with our high-grade flake graphite mineralization at our Lac Knife project, North American green energy companies and lithium-ion battery manufacturers can look closer to home to Focus for their secure supply of high-quality flake graphite products.\"The drilling program comprised 30 HQ-diameter holes (total: 5,437 m) and was designed to complete the systematic testing of the Manicouagan-Ouest Graphitic Corridor (MOCG). Results for the first five (5) holes tested were released on April 27, 2021, and included an intersection of 92.6 m grading 12.7% Graphitic Carbon (Cg) with a 49.4 m sub-intercept grading 16.2% Cg. The remaining 25 drill holes have now been analyzed and results inclu...
