About First Canadian Graphite Inc.
First Canadian is engaged in the exploration of critical minerals and is committed to advancing its Lac Gueret South high-grade graphite property to support applications in energy transition and advanced technologies.
The Lac Gueret South project (formerly the Berkwood project) borders Nouveau Monde Graphite's Uatnan graphite project in the southwest Manicouagan reservoir area, approximately 234 km north-northwest of Baie-comeau in Quebec's Cote-Nord region, on the Nitassinan (ancestral territory) of the Pessamit Innu.
Recent work at Zone 13 has outlined a significant new high-grade graphite-bearing anomaly with a confirmed strike length of 3.3 kilometres and widths exceeding 150 metres. Prospecting on this discovery has returned surface and near-surface high-grade graphite, with 46 samples assaying up to 43.4 per cent graphitic carbon (Cg). Refer to the company's press releases dated July 30, 2026, and Aug. 20, 2026.
The company's land claims and optioned ground now exceed 200 square km, establishing one of the most extensive claim portfolios in the Lac Gueret graphite district. With more than $10-million invested to date and significant exploration upside remaining, First Canadian Graphite is focused on expanding resources and advancing the project toward a preliminary economic assessment (PEA).
