American Graphite Technologies Inc. ("AGIN" or the "Company")
(OTCBB: AGIN) and (BERLIN: A8G) (WKN:A1KBDQ/ISIN:US02640K1079)
announces that the Company has received independent test results
for the resistivity of the graphene paper manufactured by its
licensing partner CTI Nanotechnologies LLC ("CTI"). The resistivity
measurements of five test samples were measured in an Electrical
Engineering laboratory, using a 4 point probe, at the University of
Vermont in Burlington, Vermont.
The results are as follows: Sample 1- 80um 370 mohms Sample 2-
110um 175 mohms Sample 3- 200um 90 mohms Sample 4- 310um 55 mohms
Sample 5- 380um 45 mohms
These test results indicate that CTI has achieved milliohm
resistivity for graphene paper. CTI has relocated to its new
research and development facility in Rockingham, Vermont and will
continue the graphene paper R&D for small scale and large scale
samples once all equipment is in place.
"Since establishing our agreement with CTI in early December
2012 our goal was to have milliohm resistivity for graphene paper
in the short term. I am very pleased that this goal has been
reached as shown from the independent testing completed at the
University of Vermont," stated Rick Walchuk, CEO. "Our licensing
partner CTI will continue R&D on the technology for both
resistivity and scalability."

About American Graphite Technologies Inc.
American Graphite Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: AGIN) is a mineral
exploration and technology development company that is listed on a
US Stock Exchange where the Company's ticker symbol is AGIN and on
the Berlin Stock Exchange under the following symbol: A8G
(WKN:A1KBDQ/ISIN:US02640K1079). By concentrating on securing
graphite mining opportunities and the commercialization of graphene
specific proprietary technology methods, management is seeking to
bring profitable opportunities and maximize shareholder value.
Graphene has been described as the "miracle material" of the 21st
Century and is believed to be stronger than steel and more
conductive than copper while being flexible, making it plausible as
a replacement over silicon possibly leading to thinner, faster,
cheaper, more flexible devices including power sources. Since
graphene comes from the carbon atom it is abundant and cheap. In
2010 the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Andre Geim and
Konstantin Novoselov for groundbreaking experiments regarding
graphene. Advances in alternative energy technologies are driving
demand for strategic metals like graphite that have recently
evolved from industrial demands to include high tech uses as
nations focus on encouraging the development of new domestic
markets for clean and efficient energy alternatives, smart grid
infrastructure and military capabilities.
