Chibougamau Independent Mines Inc.: Drilling Intersects Large Iron,
Titanium, Vanadium Zones Near Chibougamau
ROUYN-NORANDA, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Dec 2, 2013) - Chibougamau
Independent Mines Inc. ("Chibougamau Mines")
(TSX-VENTURE:CBG)(STUT:CLL) is pleased to provide shareholders with
the analytical results of two drill holes completed in order to
cross section our 100% owned Mont Sorcier North and South iron,
titanium, vanadium property, 17km east of the Town of
Chibougamau.
Mont Sorcier
North
Hole MS-13-17 was drilled northward and for a length of 602
metres at a dip angle of 45°. Overburden depth was 2.6 metres.
Magnetite bearing rock was intersected from the beginning of the
drill hole to a depth of 328.4 metres (1,077.4 feet). The hole was
continued in order to also cut the Sulphur Converting Sulphide
horizon of pyrite and pyrrhotite which has reported erratic copper
and gold values. The magnetite body was intersected as follows
based upon sulphur cut offs of -1% and -2%.

Magnetite content was determined by Satmagan analysis by Actlabs
in Ancaster, Ontario and represents the percentage of magnetite by
weight. Oxides were analysed by XRF. Details of analytical methods
used are available on our website, under Technical, Technical
Information, Assay Methods (Actlabs)
The Mont Sorcier North Iron Property was subjected to cross
sectioned drilling and metallurgical test work by Campbell
Chibougamau Mines Limited, the major producing mining company in
the area, which published an open pittable resource of 171,571,000
tons with a head grade of 30.0% Fe and 1.06% Ti02 which corresponds
well with the analysis from our recent drill hole. The full
historical report is available on the Quebec Government E-Sigeom
(Examine) site under GM31867. Additional test work by the Quebec
Government Mines Laboratory in 1975 using Davis Tube testers
indicated an average grade of 66.2% Fe, 1.32% Ti02and 0.57% V205 in
concentrate with P205 (an impurity) content at less than
0.001%.
Mont Sorcier
South
Also recently, Chibougamau Mines acquired a number of claims
covering much of the nearby South Iron Zone which was also drilled
and outlined by Campbell Chibougamau Mines Ltd. and described in
the report indicated above. A historical non-NI 43-101 resource of
102,800,000 tons grading 27.4% Fe and 1.05% Ti02 was reported with
subsequent Davis Tube tests producing concentrates with 67.8% Fe,
0.95% Ti02 and 0.68% V205.
Globex recently completed hole MS-13-19 across the South Iron
Zone drilling southward with a dip of 45° for a core length of
102m. The hole intersected the following:

Sulphur content was negligible over the entire core length.
The assay results correlate well with the values intersected in
the historical drilling on the companies' claims.
It was projected by Campbell Chibougamau Mines Ltd. that the
North Zone and South Zones within the area defined by historical
drilling could generate 95.2 million tons of concentrate. The zones
are open to depth.
Chibougamau Mines has not done the detailed work required to
verify the historical grades and tonnages nor the metallurgical
test work by Campbell Chibougamau mines Ltd and the Quebec
government laboratory referred to above as the core and sample
material no longer exists. The resources and metallurgical studies
should be treated as historical, non NI 43-101 compliant and should
not be relied upon.
