About the Lac Tetepisca graphite project

Focus Graphite's 100-per-cent-owned Lac Tetepisca graphite project comprises two contiguous properties -- Lac Tetepisca and Lac Tetepisca Nord, located in the Southwest Manicouagan reservoir area of the Cote-Nord region of Quebec on the Nitassinan of the Pessamit Innu, 234 kilometres north-northwest of the city of Baie-Comeau, an industrial city located where the Manicouagan River intersects the north shore of the St. Lawrence River. Together, the two properties form a block of 125 map-designated claims (total area: 6,737.50 hectares). Focus purchased a 100-per-cent unencumbered interest of the mineral rights in the 67 CDC claims constituting the original Lac Tetepisca property from a third party in August, 2011. The Lac Tetepisca Nord property was map staked by the company in 2012. The Lac Tetepisca project is accessible year-round by way of a network of secondary gravel roads that extend north from Highway 389, 10 kilometres to the south of the Manic 5 hydroelectric power station.

Maps of the Lac Tetepisca property showing the location of the MOGC graphite deposit, along with drill sections, are available on the company's website.
