Canada Strategic Metals Inc. and Lomiko Metals Inc. Complete Drilling Program
Intercepts of 28.50 m of 16.53%, 30.95 m of 8.18%, 46.25 m of 5.43% and 47.15 m of 4.42% Flake GraphiteMONTREAL and VANCOUVER -- (Marketwired - Jan 6, 2016) - Canada Strategic Metals Inc. ("Canada Strategic Metals" or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE:CJC) (FRANKFURT:YXEN) (OTCBB:CJCFF) and Lomiko Metals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:LMR) (OTCQX:LMRMF) (FRANKFURT:DH8B) are very pleased to announce the results for seven (7) exploration holes from the Refractory Zone at the La Loutre Graphite Property. The recent drilling campaign on La Loutre Graphite property has now been completed.
"High Grade material in a large, near surface mineralized system such as La Loutre is a very positive indicator for the viability of a future mining operation", stated A. Paul Gill, CEO Lomiko Metals Inc.

* Length along the core. The Company doesn't have enough information to estimates the true width of the mineralized zone intersected in the drill holes
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. The property will now be assessed for a resource. Viable near surface mineralization reduces the amount of waste rock that needs to be moved, reducing overall cost of the project and reducing environmental impact.
In addition, Lomiko hopes to define material >99.99% Graphite Crystalline Flake to serve as the base material for testing graphite for the ultrapure carbon market and for conversion to graphene and use in 3D Printing and Supercapacitors.

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 75 um. All samples are analyzed for Carbon Graphite using C-IR18.
