Core Shack
The Company will also present at the PDAC Core Shack from 10:00am to 5:00pm Tuesday March 6 and
9:00am to noon on Wednesday March 7 in Booth #3102B on the Investors Exchange floor at the
MTCC.
The Core Shack will allow the Company to showcase c ut and polished intervals of representative
mineralized high-grade drill core from A-15-121. Th e recent 2017 drill hole A-15-137 illustrates a sim ilar
high-grade nature, within the core of the deposit, cutting 11.79% Zn+Pb and 19.1 g/t Ag over a true width
of 57.79 metres including 14.51% Zn+Pb and 23.4g/t Ag over a true width of 37.06 metres. Hole 137
represents the best intersection ever encountered on the Cardiac Creek deposit.
The drilling in 2017 continued to demonstrate the c onsistent nature of the high-grade core to the Card iac
Creek deposit and the potential to expand the overall limits of the deposit at depth and along strike.
Additional technical information such as maps and c ross sections will also be on display. The Core Sha ck
represents another important networking opportunity to showcase progress on the Akie property and
display excellent new core specimens from the high-grade core of the Cardiac Creek deposit.

The Akie Zn-Pb-Ag Project
The 100% owned Akie property is situated within the Kechika Trough, the southernmost area of the
regionally extensive Paleozoic Selwyn Basin and one of the most prolific sedimentary basins in the wor ld
for the occurrence of SEDEX zinc-lead-silver and stratiform barite deposits.
Drilling on the Akie property by Canada Zinc Metals since 2005 has identified a significant body of ba ritic-
zinc-lead SEDEX mineralization known as the Cardiac Creek deposit. The deposit is hosted by siliceous,
carbonaceous, fine grained clastic rocks of the Middle to Late Devonian Gunsteel Formation.
With additional drilling completed in 2017, the Com pany has updated the estimate of mineral
resources at Cardiac Creek, as follows:
5% zinc cut-off grade Contained metal:
Category Tonnes
(million) Zn (%) Pb (%) Ag (g/t) Zn (B lbs) Pb (B lbs) Ag (M oz)
Indicated 22.7 8.32 1.61 14.1 4.162 0.804 10.3
Inferred 7.5 7.04 1.24 12.0 1.169 0.205 2.9
In addition to the Akie Project, the Company owns 100% of eight of eleven large, contiguous property blocks
that comprise the Kechika Regional Project includin g the advanced Mt. Alcock prospect. The Kechika
Regional Project also includes the Pie, Yuen and Ci rque East properties within which the Company
maintains a significant 49% interest with partners Teck Resources Limited (TSX: TECK.B) and Korea Zinc
Co. Ltd. These properties collectively extend north west from the Akie property for approximately 140
kilometres covering the highly prospective Gunsteel Formation shale; the main host rock for known SEDEX
zinc-lead-silver deposits in the Kechika Trough of northeastern British Columbia. These projects are located
approximately 260 kilometres north northwest of the town of Mackenzie, British Columbia, Canada.
