LION SEES PATH TO RESTARTING GRAPHITE MINE

Global Li-ion Graphite Corp. has noted that the President of Madagascar has signed the new Malagasy mining code into law. This new code is structured to better support sustainable development, and good minerals and environmental governance, as well as benefiting the people of Madagascar -- all of which aligns with Global Li-on's commitment to being a good corporate citizen. This is a very positive step in the realization of the Ambato-Arana graphite mining project. Moreover, Madagascar's Ministry of Mines and Strategic Resources has confirmed that the mine plan submitted by Global Li-ion for the development of the project complies with existing regulatory requirements. The ministry may ask the company to provide specific additional data to its mining plan upon the implementation of the new mining code, which the government indicates is imminent. Global Li-ion has prepared such data and information to meet any further request from the ministry. The company is taking all necessary steps to bring the project back into production.

Jason Walsh, chairman, commented, "We are very pleased that the signature of the new mining code accelerates the timeline for us to be able to restart graphite production at our Ambato-Arana project."

About Ambato-Arana graphite mine, Madagascar

The three 40-year renewable mining exploitation licences that comprise the project total 4,375 hectares (10,811 acres) and are located in the vicinity of Andasibe in Toamasina province in Madagascar, 20 kilometres to the southwest of Sheritt's large-scale nickel/cobalt laterite open-pit mine at Ambatovy and 15 km northeast of the town of Moramanga, from which National Highway RN2 connects with capital city Antananarivo (114 km) and Madagascar's main port of Toamisina (Tamatave) (240 km). Graphite was produced on the licences at a modest rate, constrained by the technology employed on the licences at that time, for roughly a century from 1910. Production was suspended by the previous owners due to a slump at the time in global graphite markets and with the deposits only partially mined. The deposits are now ready for larger scale exploitation with modern production techniques. They lie within the graphitic horizons of the highly prospective Manampotsy formation and are associated with topographic highs that are exploited via free digging of lateritic ore and open-pit mining, providing a lower cost exploitation without need for blasting. The graphite mineralization on the project appears within well-defined north-south belts with interbedded graphite-rich friable layers. The geological layers of interest have continuity of several kilometres and exhibit a shallow dip angle. Sample data indicate good grade (up to 10 per cent carbon content with some samples up to nearly 14 per cent) and large flake (jumbo size), consistent with other nearby mines, for example, Gallois (Elate Graphite), Sahamamy & Vatomina (Tirupati Graphite), and DNI Metals' Vohitsara.
