Gratomic Announces Update on Capim Grosso Graphite Project Drilling Program in Brazil

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / February 23, 2022 / Gratomic Inc. ("Gratomic", "GRAT" or the "Company") (TSXV:GRAT)(OTCQX:CBULF)(FSE:CB82) announces more preliminary findings from its 5,000-meter diamond drill program on the Capim Grosso graphite project located within the Bahia State of Brazil, to further delineate graphite mineralization on a recently completed two-fold trenching and sampling program (see Press Release Dated December 22nd, 2021 HERE). The Company has a 100% interest in the Capim Grosso graphite project (see Press Release dated December 8th, 2021 HERE).

A total of 686.65 m has been drilled to date. The introduction of a second drilling rig, which is currently onsite, has expedited the drilling program. The ability to drill with two rigs simultaneously will accelerate the conclusion of the drilling program and will positively impact the announcement of results. Drill core-cutting equipment is currently at the site, which will enable the team to begin splitting the drill core to produce samples for laboratory assays. SGS Geosol, in Vespasiano, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil will be commissioned to conduct the analysis of the assays. (See Press Release dated January 26th, 2021 HERE).

The six completed drill holes intercepted graphite varying in width from 0.1m to 3.88 m (NOTE * QP (Qualified Person) believes that these are close to true width based upon drill holes' perpendicular intersection on lithological dips). Assay results from the first six drill holes will be announced when received and analyzed. The aim of the drill program is to publish a maiden resource estimate in accordance with National Instrument (NI43-101).
