C3 Metals Inc. announce that the 5,000 metre drilling program at the Company's 100% owned Bellas Gate copper-gold porphyry project in Jamaica will commence this weekend. Drilling is designed to test multiple porphyry copper targets identified within the regionally significant Crawl River Fault zone. Drilling will also target epithermal gold prospects on the property.

Twelve porphyry systems and multiple epithermal occurrences have been identified in the project area to date. Program Highlights: The Epidote Ridge prospect area is located within the Bellas Gate SEPL and specifically within Porphyry Alley, a cluster of porphyries along the Crawl River Fault Zone Epidote Ridge is the first drill target, an interpreted preserved porphyry centre linked to porphyry copper-gold prospects known as Connors, Geo Hill and Camel Hill Strong copper-gold mineralization intersected at Connors, Geo Hill and Camel prospects is interpreted to converge beneath Epidote Ridge Shallow historic drilling at Connors and Camel Hill intersected good copper and gold grades as highlighted below Connors results: 114.0m @ 0.69% Cu, 0.52 g/t Au in CON-14-004, 84.0m @ 1.00% Cu, 0.77 g/t Au in CON-14-005 1 Camel Hill results: 137.2m @ 0.56% Cu, 0.25g/t Au in CAM92-01 1, 85.0m @ 0.52% Cu, 0.25g/t Au in CAM92-05 1, Post Eidote Ridge drilling, the rig will test other high potential porphyry prospects, including Coffee, Lucky Valley, Geo Hill and White Rock Ridge, followed by epithermal copper-gold- silver targets at Charing Cross and Stamford Hill Details of the Drilling Program: Over the past year, the Company compiled all historical exploration data on its Jamaican Exclusive Prospecting Licenses and refined the geological and mineralization models for Bellas Gate. The review identified significant porphyry copper-gold potential beneath Epidote Ridge, where down dip extensions of the Connors and Camel porphyry copper-gold deposits are interpreted to converge.

Epidote Ridge is characterized by intense epidote alteration over a nine square kilometre area and is associated with highly anomalous copper in soil geochemistry and coincident magnetic and IP chargeability features at depth. The geochemical and geophysical signatures at Geo Hill, Camel Hill and Connors are similar to Epidote Ridge, making it the most compelling and highest priority porphyry drill target in Bellas Gate.
