Cavan Signs LOI to Joint-Venture its 100% owned Buckingham Graphite Property to Caribou King Resources Ltd.

VANCOUVER, BC  / ACCESSWIRE / April 1 2015 / Cavan Ventures Inc. (“Cavan” or the “Company”)(CVN – TSX.V) is pleased to announce it has signed a letter of intent with Caribou King Resources Ltd. to joint venture its 100% owned Buckingham property. The Buckingham property consists of 24 claims and is attached to the northern boundary of Caribou’s Buckingham property. Grab samples on Cavan’s Buckingham property have returned values as high as 86.5% Corg with flakes over 5mm in diameter (see CVN press release dated July 8, 2014).

Cavan’s Buckingham property consists of 24 claims located in Ranges VIII and IX, Buckingham Township, Quebec and covers an area of 1,682.8 hectares (4,157 acres). Cavan’s Buckingham property is 1.7 kilometers north of the historic producing Walker graphite mine and covers the northern extension of a graphite zone on Caribou’s Buckingham property. A helicopter-borne magnetic and time-domain electromagnetic survey confirmed a historic conductor, and further resolved a second parallel conductor to a length of 300 meters (see news release September 24, 2013). Two airborne geophysics programs were performed showing massive anomalies plus six graphite-rich zones in trenches on the claims followed up on these airborne anomalies. Assays from the channel sample and trenching program returned 15.55 % org C over 19.50 metres and as high as 22.8% org C over 5.4 metres respectively.

Terms of the definitive agreement will be released pending assay results from a mini-bulk sample between 2-5 kg. The mini-bulk sample was at the request of Caribou King Resources Ltd. who will pay for the field work and purity testing set to be taken in the coming week.

President and CEO Peter Swistak states “We are extremely pleased to be approached by Caribou King Resources for a mini-bulk sample and purity testing on our Buckingham property. This LOI is the first step for Cavan Ventures to achieve our objective in creating shareholder value and advancing our Buckingham property in this very rich graphite region”.
