BERKWOOD RESOURCES ANNOUNCES OVER 130.55 METER VISUAL GRAPHITE INTERSECTION
FROM PHASE 3 DRILLING.
April 26 th, 2018, VANCOUVER, B.C. Berkwood Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: BKR, FSE: BK2, WKN: A110N3)
(“Berkwood” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has intersected significant intersections of visual
graphite during its phase 3 drill program, including one drill hole that has a 130.55-meter intersection with a 87.5 meter
true thickness. The nine completed holes totalled 1,481.4 metres (m) of HQ core to objective depths. Eight of the nine
holes contained significant graphite intervals as listed on the table below.
“I am very pleased to announce the successful completion of the third phase of drilling with all three phases combined
totalling over 4000 metres now. The Berkwood team is also pleased to announce that we have drilled a 130.55 metre
intersection of graphite with a true thickness of 87.5 metres. We are continuing to unravel the structural and geological
disposition of the Lac Gueret South Zone 1 graphite body. So we continue the exciting but painstaking work required
as Berkwood endeavours to chart a focussed and efficient program to define the potential for an economically mineable
resource. Field crews performed detailed structural logging and analysis of previous drill core – and we are increasing
our structural capabilities through new collaboration with Terrane Geosciences. Once complete we will have a 3D
model of our graphite body providing a clearer more detailed picture of the size and geometry of our Zone 1 graphite
body. We are making progress in stages, and continue with each successive Phase to build on the great results we have
enjoyed since discovery,” states Tom Yingling, President and CEO. “ Critically, the exploration potential for a
significant graphite deposit has continued to be supported by the Phase 3 campaign”.

Edward Lyons, PGeo (BC, QC. NL) states, “ The drilling in Phase 3 focused on expanding knowledge in and adjacent
to the previously drilled areas. One outcome is increased recognition of intervals of lower grade graphite interlayered
with high-grade material. Some relatively narrow true width intervals with lower grades may represent lateral
extensions of thicker zones. Industry and metallurgical experience in highly metamorphic graphitic rocks has shown
that the medium and lower graphite grade material can yield higher percentages of coarse flake graphite recovery,
making these units potentially of similar economic value. The true widths and persistence of graphite in almost all of
Berkwood’s drillholes to date show the potential of the Zone 1 anomaly. Planned geophysical studies ahead of Phase 4
will refine our geological and structural model to guide drill placement .”
BK1-23-18 was drilled across the margin of the anomaly to test the limits of graphite mineralisation. No graphite was
encountered. Deposit definition will require some tests of the margins in order for us to design a more efficiently drill
program. This is typical exploration testing.
Lac Gueret South Zone 1
Lac Gueret South is located in Cote Nord, Quebec, a three-hour drive from Baie-Comeau in an area with very good
infrastructure. The Project lies directly south of Mason Graphite's (TSX-LLG) advanced Lac Gueret Project. Mason is
developing one of the largest medium to high-grade graphite deposits in the world.
Including the Phase 3 campaign, the Company has drilled 27 holes on Zone 1 that totals 4,006m. The Company is
pleased to announce it has intersected visual Graphite in every hole drilled to date, with significant Cgr intercepts being
observed in 26 holes. Success in these drill programs confirms that a significant component of the distinct
electromagnetic conductors that occur over a two kilometer strike length and 50 meters to 600 meters in width as defined
by airborne EM geophysics (see the Berkwood news release dated February 10, 2015) includes graphite mineralization.
