LÉVIS, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - March 19, 2013) - Graniz Mondal Inc. (TSX VENTURE:GRA.H) (the "Company" or "Graniz Graphite") is pleased to announce wide intercepts of graphite mineralization at the Brunet graphite deposit located 28 miles from North America's only graphite producer IMERYS TIMCAL near Mont-Laurier. Dr Berthe Lambert, Chairman, comments: "The initial drilling results will add significant new tonnage to the Brunet large flake graphite deposit. The most interesting development is the discovery of a new graphite zone at the 100 metre level that was not identified in historical data. The drilling program should allow us to confirm that we are in front of a large flake graphite body similar to IMERYS TIMCAL's deposit 28 miles west of our mine. Also, there is a breakthrough, graphene can be produced from large flake graphite".
The following drill holes were emplaced to determine the outer boundaries of the Brunet Large Flake Graphite mine:

Sampling including the addition standardized reference material and blanks was carried out at Ste-Véronique's coreshack and samples were shipped to ALS Minerals lab in Val d'Or for graphitic carbon assaying. Donald Théberge P. Geo.Eng., has managed the Winter 2013 exploration program and is a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. Drilling, logging and sampling are carried out under the supervision of Yvan Bussières P. Geo.Eng., a NI 43-101 Qualified Person. Mr Bussières is also responsible for the sampling protocol. The Company anticipates receipt of the assay results on an ongoing basis over the next 6-8 weeks.
