OAKVILLE, ON--(Marketwire - Jan 14, 2013) -
CANADA CARBON FINALIZES THE PURCHASE OF PAST PRODUCING LUMP/VEIN
GRAPHITE
PROPERTY AND TWO FLAKE GRAPHITE PROPERTIES
January 14, 2013, Oakville, ON, Canada - Canada Carbon Inc. (formerly
Bolero
Resources Corp.) (the "Company', "Canada Carbon") (TSX-V: CCB),
(FRANKFURT: U7N1) is pleased to announce that it has closed the previously
announced
agreement to acquire certain mining claims in relation to three
properties: the
Miller, Walker and Dun Raven graphite mines with 9228-6202 Quebec Inc.
(herein
"Quebec Inc") a private Quebec corporation.
Paul Ogilvie CEO commented: "We are very pleased with the
acquisitions. The
Miller property will add great value to our business model; the
opportunity to
own a lump/vein graphite project is very exciting, we look forward to
starting
work as soon as possible. We anticipate the Walker and Dun Raven properties
will
be secondary material feed stock for our mill".
The Miller Mine is a past producer of graphite located 70km west of
Montreal.
This mine may have been the first graphite operation in Canada. It was
worked
around 1845 to at least 1900 when it was reported that a twenty-
five car
trainload of lump graphite was shipped from the deposit. The property
consists
of nine claims covering 5.4km(2) including the past mine and similar
geology
around the original deposit, with road access and power nearby.
The
mineralization at the mine site consists of five veins of varying widths
with
unknown direction or depth. The quantity and grade is unknown but such
veins
usually consist of high grade mineralization ranging from 30 to 90%
graphite.
Vein graphite is the most valued natural form of graphite, and is currently
only
mined in Sri Lanka. There is no certainty that further exploration will
result
in the development of similar deposits. Pursuant to the terms of the
mining
claims purchase and transfer agreement ("Agreement") dated January 7(th),
2012
Canada Carbon has made an initial contribution of $5,000 CDN and will
make a
second cash payment of $45,000 CDN on April 1, 2013 and will pay a
yearly
royalty of 0.75% on the net production returns. As further consideration
for the
transfer and sale of the Miller Claims and related assets, the
Company has
issued 1,000,000 common shares to Quebec Inc. A conditional
payment of
1,000,000 shares will be issued on the first anniversary date of the
closing
after the purchaser makes certain expenditures of up to $250,000
CDN and
confirms specific defined quality, grade and feasibility targets.
The Walker Mine is a past producer of graphite located 30 km
northeast of
Ottawa. The property consists of four claims covering the past mine and
eleven
claims covering interesting geological formations with potential
graphite
mineralization around the original deposit. More than thirty pits have
been
reported on the past producing property. Massive graphite veins have been
found
at the Walker Mine. Pursuant to the terms of the mining claims
purchase and
transfer agreement ("Agreement") dated January 7(th), 2012, Canada
Carbon has
made an initial contribution of $5,000 CDN and will make a second cash
payment
of $45,000 CDN on April 1, 2013 and will pay a yearly royalty of 2% on
the net
production returns. As further consideration for the transfer and sale
of the
Walker Claims and related assets, the Company has issued 1,500,000 common
shares
to Quebec Inc. A conditional payment of 1,000,000 shares will be issued
on the
first anniversary date of the closing after the purchaser makes
certain
expenditures of up to $250,000 CDN and confirms specific defined quality,
grade
and feasibility targets.
The Dun Raven is a graphite deposit located near Shawville, QC, about 80km
west
of Ottawa. A geophysical anomaly exists of which only about 15% has
been
drilled. Pursuant to the terms of the mining claims purchase and
transfer
agreement ("Agreement") dated January 7th, 2012, Canada Carbon has
made an
initial contribution of $1,000 CDN and will make a second cash payment of
$9,000
CDN on April 1, 2013 and will pay a yearly royalty of 2% on the net
production
returns. As further consideration for the transfer and sale of the Dun
Raven
Claims and related assets, the Company has issued 250,000 common
shares to
Quebec Inc. A conditional payment of 250,000 shares will be issued on the
first
anniversary date of the closing after the purchaser makes certain
expenditures
of up to $100,000 CDN and confirms specific defined quality,
grade and
feasibility targets.

open
pit mine and mill were in operation from 1980 to 1989 where a total of less
than
70,000 tons were processed. The Maria Graphite Project consists of 38
mineral
claims located in Maria Township, 17km south of the community of Bissett

graphite
deposit. Northern Graphite recently reported the extraction of very large
high
purity flake graphite consistent across the entire resource with
