MONTRÉAL, QUÉBEC--(Marketwired - Dec. 8, 2017) - Canadian Metals Inc. (The "Company") (CSE:CME)(CSE:CME.CN)(CNSX:CME) announces that, further to its December 7, 2017 press release and based on initial subscription results, it intends to complete a non-brokered private placement with proceeds exceeding the originally announced target of $300,000 due to high investor interest. CME intends to upsize the placement of Shares in the Company at a same price of $0.075 per Unit (the "Offering"). The Company will use the net proceeds from the Offering to finance the pre-feasibility at its flagship Ferro Alloys Smelter in Baie-Comeau.

"We are extremely pleased by the high level of investor interest in our current offering. I think it is a strong endorsement of what we have achieved so far with the development program at Langis and the increasing confidence in our ability to continue to show strong results and advance the Langis Project," stated Stephane Leblanc, Chief Investment Officer of Canadian Metals. "This funding will allow us to aggressively execute the second phase of our development programs, complete the pre-feasibility by March 2018 and prepare for the Langis production start."
