CMC Announces the Identification of a Significant Area of Exploration Interest at Its Rodney Pond Property, Central Newfoundland

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / June 13, 2022 / CMC Metals Ltd. (TSX-V:CMB)(Frankfurt:ZM5P)(OTC PINK:CMCXF) ("CMC" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that preliminary exploration efforts at its Rodney Pond, Central Newfoundland have identified a large area of exploration interest and as a result it is deemed a property of merit. The nature of mineralization and alteration on the property is considered to be indicative of a porphyritic style setting.

The mineralization in Rodney Pond comprises of several parallel quartz veins (see Plates 1 and 2) emplaced in a compact gneiss that strike in a northwesterly direction and occurs within an alteration area with dimensions of 2.5 kilometers by 1.2 kilometers in size that remains open in all directions. Rodney Pond is located within the Gander Zone in Central Newfoundland, an area of which is subject to several major exploration programs including Newfound Gold's Queensway Gold Project.

Preliminary mapping and prospecting of the northwestern portion of the property has identified that the mineralizing system is possibly porphyritic in nature (see Plate 3).

Structural controls indicate northeast oriented structures which are thought to provide opportunity for the emplacement of an intrusive body and related mineralization. A recent ground magnetic survey completed over the entire property by the Company further infers that the mineralization could be associated with a possible fault system and/or associated with an intrusive. The Rodney Pond Prospect is located on a high and low magnetic contrast envelope that is comparable to the setting of the highly prospective "GRUB line" (see Map 1).

Previous prospecting efforts at Rodney Pond within the defined area of exploration interest have provided assays of up to 322 ppb gold, 27.2 g/t silver, 7% copper, and 1,065 g/t zinc. Chromite is also found in various amounts (see Map 2).

Kevin Brewer, P.Geo President and CEO noted "These initial prospecting efforts at Rodney Pond by our geological team are very encouraging. When we acquired this property it was evident that this property had potential to host a significant polymetallic deposit and the nature and extent of mineralization at surface is demonstrative that Rodney Pond is a property of merit and deserves detailed exploration."

Further exploration is recommended which may include, but may not be limited to, a drone survey to identify areas of outcrop, further prospecting and geological mapping, and an induced polarization geophysical survey. The property is road accessible. For further information on the property please refer to the Company website at www.cmcmetals.ca.
