Canada Strategic Metals Inc. ("Canada Strategic Metals" or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE:CJC)(FRANKFURT:YXEN)(OTCBB:CJCFF) and Lomiko Metals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:LMR)(OTC PINK:LMRMF)(FRANKFURT:DH8B) are very pleased to announce the results for seven (7) in-fill holes in the newly-named Graphene-Battery zones where high grade samples were discovered and reported July 29, 2015. Three zones known as Graphene, Battery and Refractory have been identified to date. So far, a total of 19 holes have been reported for the drilling campaign, holes 1-11 in the Refractory zone were reported September 24, 2015.
The La Loutre property consists of contiguous claim blocks totalling approximately 2 867.29 hectares (28,67 km2) situated approximately 53 km east of Imerys Carbon and Graphite, formerly known as the Timcal Graphite Mine, North America's only operating graphite mine, and 117 km northwest of Montreal.
A map of hole localisation and results is available on the web site of the Company at: www.csmetals.ca.

The 2015 drilling program is managed by Consul-Teck Exploration of Val-d'Or, Quebec, who designed the drilling campaign, supervised the program and logged and sampled the core.
Consul-Teck Exploration implemented QA/QC procedures to ensure best practices in sampling and analysis of the core samples. The drill core was logged and then split, with one half sent for assay and the other retained in the core box as a witness sample. Duplicates and blanks were inserted regularly into the sample stream.
The samples in secure tagged bags were delivered directly to the analytical facility for analysis. In this case, the analytical facility was the ALS minerals in Val-d'Or, Quebec. The samples are weighed and identified prior to sample preparation. The samples are crushed to 70% minus 2 mm, then separated and pulverized to 85% passing 75um. All samples are analyzed for Carbon Graphite using C-IR18.
