Extension of Zone 25 to the Northwest at Sakami With Intersections of 1.62 g/t Au Over 64.50 Metres, Including 2.21 g/t Au Over 43.30 Metres and 3.46 g/t Au Over 11.50 Metres 

MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Aug. 25, 2016) -Canada Strategic Metals Inc. ("Canada Strategic Metals" or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE:CJC)(YXEN.F)(CJCFF)andMatamec Explorations Inc. (TSX VENTURE:MAT)(MHREF) are pleased to report the results of the first of nine holes completed on the Northwest extension of Zone 25 (main zone) with an intersection of 1.62 g/t Au over 64.50 metres including 2.21 g/t Au over 43.30 metres and 3.46 g/t over 11.50 metres from hole PT-16-91 (see table below). These new results confirm the extension to the Northwest of the Zone 25 envelope of gold mineralization. The program consisted of nine holes for a total of 2,058 metres of drilling.

Hole #	From (m)	To (m)	Length* (m)	Au (g/t)
PT-16-91	157.50	222.00	64.50	1.62
Including	165.20	208.50	43.30	2.21
Including	176.00	187.50	11.50	3.46
*Core length; the Company estimates the true width of the mineralized zone at 70 to 95% of the core length.

The program is aimed at increasing the size of the main gold zone (Zone 25) to the west-northwest, as well as its south extension at depth. Zone 25 is in the La Pointe sector of the Sakami property. Once this program is complete, Zone 25 will have been tested over a strike length of more than 300 metres and to a depth of over 500 metres along its plunge. See drilling figure below.

The figure is available at the following address: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/CJC1en.pdf

"It is always impressive to cut wide gold intersections like this. Since the beginning of drilling program done on the Sakami project, the results were always positive and very consistent and included several gold intersections of up to over 50 meters, said Jean-Sebastien Lavallée, President and Chief Executive Officer of Canada Strategic Metals."

The Company will release the results of holes PT-16-92 to PT-16-99 as soon as they are received and compiled.

The 2016 drilling program designed with the help of Guy Desharnais, Ph.D, geologist at SGS Canada was managed by Consul-Teck Exploration of Val-d'Or, Quebec who 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, standards and blanks were inserted regularly into the sample stream.

The samples were delivered, in secure tagged bags, directly to the analytical facility for analysis, in this case the ALS Minerals 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), with a gravimetric finish for assays over 10 ppm Au.

Jean-Sebastien Lavallée (OGQ #773), geologist, shareholder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and a Qualified Person under NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical content of this release.
