Xmet Engages Abitibi for Geophysical Program on Blackflake West 'All Channel' EM Target

Xmet Inc. ("Xmet" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has engaged Abitibi Geophysics to commence the ground geophysical program on its Blackflake West 'All Channel' Electromagnetic ("EM") target in the next few days.

The ground geophysical program consists of phases, with the ground magnetics component being first followed by ground Induced Polarization and/or ground Electromagnetic to better delineate the target for drilling. The magnetic grid will consist of approximately 36 line km over the 'All Channel' Electromagnetic response target.

"We were recently on site at the Blackflake West property and were able to assess that ground conditions and target accessibility are now suitable to carrying out our ground magnetics. This ground magnetic survey will give us a better understanding of the 'All Channel' anomaly's strike and size. Phase one of the ground geophysical program, which is magnetics should be completed and assessed by the end of this month," said Alexander Stewart Xmet's Chairman and CEO.

About Xmet's Blackflake Project

Xmet's Blackflake Project comprises over 30,000 acres of 100% owned claims and over 8,000 acres of fifty percent owned or optioned claims located approximately 60km to the northwest of Hearst, Ontario and is adjacent to Zenyatta's Hydrothermal Graphite Deposit. Xmet has now conducted three airborne electromagnetic surveys, VTEM and TDEM, which discovered multiple electromagnetic conductors making the targets highly prospective for further exploration. Xmet has developed an excellent working relationship with the Constance Lake First Nation, with whom the company signed an ongoing Exploration Agreement. Xmet has received all necessary approvals from the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines to conduct ground geophysics on and to drill the 'All Channel' target.
