Chibougamau Independent Intersects Copper and Gold Down Dip on the Bateman Property

Jan 18, 2017

ROUYN-NORANDA, QUEBEC – Chibougamau Independent Mines Inc. (TSX VENTURE: CBG) (STUT:CLL)(OTC Markets (USA) : CMAUF) is pleased to inform shareholders that it has received assays from two drill holes on the C3 copper]gold zone on our Bateman Mine property located in McKenzie Township, 8 km east of the town of Chibougamau, Quebec.

The Bateman Mine property is one of five former copper]gold mines and the down dip of three other large copper]gold mines, one zinc, gold, silver deposit and a large vanadium]iron zone optioned to Vanadium One Energy Corp. (VONE), that Chibougamau Independent owns in the Chibougamau Mining Camp. In total, Chibougamau Independent owns approximately one half of the area of the mining camp including numerous underexplored areas with mineralization in drill holes and on surface. Most of Chibougamau Independentfs assets have only been drilled to a shallow depth including the wholly owned mine assets.

Over the 90 m down dip distance between the drill holes, the width of the mineralized zone has doubled, the copper grade has remained the same and the gold grade has doubled.

The mineralized zone is composed of massive and stringer chalcopyrite in anorthosite within the border zone of the Lac Dore Complex. Due to the presence of manganiferous siderite, a strike direction of 110o and a steep dip to the northwest, the Company believes that this structure may represent a gmineralized mine shearh, similar to most structures historically mined in the Chibougamau Mining District.

It is likely that the next step in exploring the copper]gold zone will be a down hole electromagnetic survey to better define the strike and depth potential of the copper]gold zone followed by step out drilling.

In 2013, Chibougamau Independent drilled a series of shallower holes on the C3 zone which intersected similar copper]gold mineralization at vertical depths of between 50 m to 90 m vertical (See press releases dated September 9, 18 and October 3, 2013).

Assaying was done by Accurassay based in Rouyn]Noranda and Thunder Bay using standard fire assay methods for gold and ICP for copper.

Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. (GMX . Toronto Stock Exchange, G1M . Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Berlin, Munich, Tradegate, Lang & Schwarz Stock Exchanges and GLBXF . OTCQX International) retains 3% Gross Metal Royalty on the Bateman property as a result of the spin out of the asset as a part of the transaction in the formation of Chibougamau Independent Mines Inc.
