Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, April 22, 2013 - Rock Tech
Lithium Inc. (TSX-Venture: RCK; Frankfurt: RJIA) (the "Company" or
"Rock Tech") announces updated assay results for two drill holes at
its Lochaber graphite project in Quebec.
The assay results of these drill holes, PB-12-08 and PB-12-09,
were originally disclosed in a news release on December 19, 2012.
After interpreting the assay results, the Company sent the
remaining core intersections not initially submitted to the
laboratory.
Highlights from these two drill holes include:
-Drill hole PB-12-08 intersected 120.60 metres of graphite at
various depths, ranging from 1.18% to 3.01% graphitic carbon
("Cg"), including 56.58 metres at 2.48% Cg, 22.98 metres at 2.33%
Cg, 14.04 metres at 3.01% Cg, 17.20 metres at 1.97% Cg and 9.80
metres at 1.18% Cg; and
-Drill Hole PB-12-09 intersected 112.27 metres of graphite at
various depths, ranging from 2.09% to 6.00% Cg, including 59.92
metres at 2.09% Cg, 44.25 metres at 2.84% Cg, 7.10 metres at 3.42%
Cg, and 1.00 metres at 6.00% Cg.
The above mentioned drill holes tested the graphite
mineralization along electromagnetic conductor 'C'. The
electromagnetic conductors were identified during geophysical
surveys in September, 2012 (click here to view a map).
These two drill holes are the last of the resubmitted samples
from the first phase of drilling. The Company expects to release
the assay results for the remaining drill holes in the near
future.
Quality Assurance/Quality Control
All core samples are logged and split by wet diamond saw with
half sent to the lab for analysis and half stored securely on site.
The core sample lengths typically average 1 metre but vary
depending on geological boundaries. Additional QA/QC procedures
include inserting blanks and standards into the core sample stream
at industry standard intervals with duplicate core samples taken at
intervals of twenty. Core samples are prepped and analyzed by
Global Mineral Research Limited in Burnaby, British Columbia.
During analysis, the core samples are dried, pulverized, leached
and roasted at 450? Celsius and 1200? Celsius with measured weights
taken between double ignitions. The laboratories also conduct
duplicate and internal standard samples at intervals of ten as part
of their QA/QC program.
