Graphite One Completes Airborne Survey and Extends EM Conductor to More than 13 Plus Kilometres

Jun 13, 2012 -- June 13, 2012 - Calgary, Alberta - Graphite One Resources Inc. (gph:TSX-V)(gphof:OTCQX) ("Graphite One" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has completed the airborne geophysical survey conducted by SkyTEM Canada Inc. ("SkyTEM") which was comprised of both magnetics and electromagnetics (SkyTEMs' Dual-Moment, Time-Domain Electromagnetic ("TDEM") System). The survey was flown at 50 metre spaced lines.

Based on the presence of a strong Electromagnetic conductor, the survey was extended to the northeast by 4.5km (an additional 309 line kilometres, now totaling 999 line kilometres) and 17 additional claims were staked. This data is pending. The EM conductor that is coincident with graphite occurrences has now doubled to more than 13 kilometres in strike length.

The survey is part of an aggressive $4.5 million exploration program at the Graphite Creek Property which will consist of drilling, prospecting, geological mapping and sampling along conductors delineated from the airborne survey and previously defined graphite-bearing schist - to quickly move towards a National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource.

Anthony Huston, President and Director, commented, "We are extremely pleased and excited about these results, as this extends the known length of the graphite bearing unit(s) to a total strike length of more than 13 kilometres, which immensely increases the graphite tonnage potential of the Property. We also expect the strike length to increase upon the receipt of the new airborne data".

Dean Besserer, P.Geol., V.P. Exploration, manages Graphite One's exploration and development programs and is the Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. He supervised the preparation of the technical information in this release.

About Graphite Creek

The Graphite Creek Property comprises 89 claims totaling 4,209 hectares on the Seward Peninsula of Alaska, 65 kilometres north of Nome. Mineralization at the Graphite Creek Property is characterized by coarse crystalline (large-flake) graphite (>80mesh) within graphite-bearing schist(s). Graphite mineralization is exposed at surface. The large-flake graphite occurs as disseminations and high-grade segregations and lenses in distinctive garnet-bearing quartz biotite schist(s). The host schist(s) is continuous over 13 kilometres of strike length, based on mapping, geophysics, and has an approximate thickness of 100 metres, and is exposed down dip 100 to 200 metres, thus indicating the potential for 150 to 250 million tonnes of graphite-bearing rock. The estimate of potential tonnage is based on the Company's geological mapping in 2011. Two samples were collected during 2011 of the graphite-bearing schist contain 9.1 to 21.8% graphite, respectively. A sample collected within a high-grade lense within the schist contained 56.9% graphite. A historical composite chip sample across a 16 metre outcrop of graphite-bearing schist contained 8.36% graphite. Other schists in the area contain 2 to 6% graphite. The potential size and grade of the mineralization at the Graphite Creek Property is conceptual in nature as there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in discovery of a mineral resource. The Property is 3 kilometres away from intertidal waters at Windy Cove, approximately 20 kilometres away from road systems, and 3 kilometres from an airstrip to the southeast.

About Graphite One Resources Inc.

GRAPHITE ONE RESOURCES INC. (gph:TSX-V)(gphof:OTCQX) is a mineral exploration company with extensive experience in the State of Alaska and a business strategy to identify, acquire, and explore high potential projects ready for rapid advancement. The Graphite Creek Property on the Seward Peninsula of Alaska fits with the Graphite One business strategy offering significant potential for the discovery and development of a large-flake, graphite deposit exposed at surface. Graphite One has an option to earn a 100% interest in the Graphite Creek Property and plans to rapidly advance the Property to a NI 43-101 compliant resource.

The graphite market is only beginning to open up as green technology takes more precedence in the world today. Graphite is vital for lithium-ion batteries, pebble bed nuclear reactors, and fuel cells amongst other uses. Graphite has been named a "supply critical mineral" and a "strategic mineral" by the USA and European Union as more demand is being created that surpasses the supply threshold. This has allowed for the price of graphite to rise, as over the past 7 years the price has nearly tripled.
