Focus Metals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:FMS)(OTCQX:FCSMF)(FRANKFURT:FKC)
(the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has filed on SEDAR a
NI 43-101 compliant Technical Report on a mineral resource estimate
at the Company's 100% owned Lac Knife, Quebec Project near Fermont,
Quebec. The graphite mineral resource estimate was prepared by
Edward Lyons, P. Geo. and Guy Saucier, Eng., independent Qualified
Persons of Roche Ltd. ("Roche").
All technical parameters related to the resource estimate are
fully disclosed in the technical report. The new mineral resource
estimate is based on the 105 drill holes (total 8,611 metres)
drilled by Mazarin. Both the historical and modern data were used.
Five zones were interpreted and modeled within the revised
interpretation of the resource calculation. The block model was
developed using GEMS software by Gemcom. Blocks are 5 metres long,
7 metres wide and 5 metres high.
Results were disclosed in December 5th, 2011 press release.
Roche estimated the resource inside these mineralized zones defined
with a 5% Cgr cut-off grade. These zones start from surface to a
maximum depth of 125 metres with a total extension of 350 metres by
650 metres. The results are summarized in the following table.

-- All zones remain open in all directions; inferred resources can be
upgraded to indicated resource after completion of in-fill diamond drill
holes.
-- Values displayed in this table are undiluted and "in-situ" as no
economic parameters, such as mining, milling or metallurgical recovery,
have been applied to these values, and therefore they demonstrate no
economic viability.
The report is available on the Company's website and SEDAR.
