Xmet Engages Aeroquest to Fly Deep Penetrating VTEM Electromagnetics Over 20,000 New Acres on its Blackflake Project

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Feb 4, 2014) - Xmet Inc. (TSX VENTURE:XME) ("Xmet") is pleased to announce that it has engaged Aeroquest International to complete a new round of Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic ("VTEM") and Magnetic Gradiometer Survey on its newly acquired 20,000 acres of 100% owned claims which expanded Blackflake's total area to 29,400 acres. The airborne survey will begin in the next few days.

"This will be our third round of EM aerial surveys and with the exploration success Xmet achieved with its first two EM surveys, we are excited about the potential for this next round of VTEM," said Xmet's Chairman and CEO Alexander Stewart.

He continued by saying, "Our primary objective remains to drill test our prime anomaly, disclosed in our news release of December 12, 2013, for which permits for ground geophysics and drilling are expected to be received this month. However this newly acquired land and the further upside potential that the VTEM can deliver is equally exciting."

Bill Yeomans, P. Geo, states, "Given the highly conductive nature of graphite deposits, VTEM is a very effective method for locating potential graphite and massive sulphide type deposits. The new VTEM survey, which will cover approximately 473 line kilometres, is excellent for locating conductive anomalies as well as for identifying lateral and vertical variations in resistivity."
