Electra Stone Limited: Enters into Jade Purchase Arrangement

VANCOUVER, August 25, 2016 - Electra Stone Ltd. (TSX Venture: ELT) ("Electra") or ("the Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has entered into an arrangement for the purchase of up to 540,000 kilograms of carving and industrial grade jade from Quartz Creek Developments Ltd "QCD", contingent on certain rock quality characteristics being met by QCD as required by Electra.

As an initial stage, a deposit of $50,000 CAD has been made to secure a portion of and an exclusive right to the remaining jade at the QCD jade quarry located 30 km north of Dease Lake, BC. Quarried, dimensional stone blocks, of approximately 10,000 kilograms will be moved from site to facilities in Vancouver for further processing. The first stage will act as the proof of concept of a new low-cost method of extraction and on-site processing which incorporates shallow drilling and industrial wire saws to facilitate the removal of measured rectangular blocks of Jade. Upon the success of the first stage, Electra will retain the exclusive right to purchase Jade at the negotiated price up to a total of 540,000 kilograms.

"This agreement will open the door to new jade markets and applications never fully exploited by the BC jade industry. We have successfully secured enough tonnage of a unique jade product at a low enough cost to pursue a competitive sales strategy of dimensional stone products in Canada and internationally," states John Costigan, President & CEO of Electra.
