Canada Strategic Metals : CJC.V discovers multiple new showings at Apple with results of up to 5.28 g/t gold, 95 g/t silver, 0.81% copper, 1.71% lead, 1.83% zinc and 567 ppm cobalt in grab(ii) samples

Montreal, Quebec - March 21, 2016- Canada Strategic Metals Inc. ('Canada Strategic Metals' or 'the Company') (TSX.V: CJC; FSE: YXEN; OTC-BB: CJCFF) is pleased to report the resultsof its sampling exploration program on the Apple Project.The program consisted of prospecting and sampling surface work over the Apple property.

The prospecting and geological survey was planned to follow up on historical results obtained in the past by Virginia Gold Mines and Canico Resource Corp. The program was a success, with the discovery of multiple new zones assaying up to 5.28 g/t gold, 95 g/t silver, 0.81% copper, 1.71% lead, 1.83% zinc and 576 ppm cobalt. The Company is currently compiling all historical work and new results to follow up next summer with an exploration program on the Apple property that may include diamond drilling. A total of 291 samples were collected and sent to the ALS and Bourlamaque laboratory to be assayed for gold and indicator minerals. The table below shows the best results for the program.

(ii) Grab samples are selective by nature and are unlikely to represent the average grade of the deposit.

The goal of the program was to complete an initial evaluation of the potential of the mineralized zone on the Apple property and also follow up on the showings identified in the past by Virginia Gold Mines and Canico Resource Corp., which returned grades of up to 23.8 g/t Au, 13.25% copper and 9.5% zinc. The program was also aimed at the planning of future drilling work in this area.

The 2015 sampling program was managed by Consul-Teck Exploration of Val-d'Or, Quebec, who designed and supervised the program.

The samples were delivered, in secure tagged bags, directly to the analytical facility for analysis, in this case the ALS Minerals and Bourlamaque laboratory facility in Val-d'Or, Quebec. The samples are weighed and identified prior to sample preparation. All samples are analyzed by fire assay with AA finish on a 30g sample (0.005-10 ppm Au) and ICP-41 for the other elements. Value over 10,000 ppm were re-assays by OG-46.
