TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Feb 27, 2015) - Xmet Inc. ("Xmet" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:XME) is pleased to announce that, subject to approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, it has completed an institutional private placement offering of units of the Corporation ("Units"). In connection with the current tranche, the Company issued 2,700,000 Units at a price of $0.05 per Unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of $135,000. Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Corporation (each, a "Common Share") and one common share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant is exercisable into one Common Share at a price of $0.05 for a period ending February 27, 2020. The Units and underlying securities will be subject to a four month hold period following closing of the Offering, expiring on June 28, 2015.

Xmet paid a cash finders fee of $10,800 equal to 8% of the gross proceeds raised and issued 216,000 compensation options equal to 8% of the Units issued. Each compensation option entitles the holder to acquire one common share of Xmet at a price of $0.05 per share until February 27, 2017. The net proceeds of the private placement will be used by Xmet for additional development and exploration work on its Blackflake and Grasset projects and for general working capital purposes.

About Xmet's Blackflake Project

Xmet's Blackflake Project comprises over 30,000 acres of 100% owned claims and over 8,000 acres of fifty percent owned or optioned claims located approximately 60km to the northwest of Hearst, Ontario and is adjacent to Zenyatta's Hydrothermal Graphite Deposit. Xmet has developed an excellent working relationship with the Constance Lake First Nation, with whom the company signed an ongoing Exploration Agreement.

Xmet Inc. has the option to earn up to a 60% interest on a portion of the Blackflake West Graphite Project from Metals Creek Resources Corp. by incurring a series of work commitments on the property as well as cash payments and share issuances as detailed in our May 22nd, 2014 news release. Additional land claims contiguous to the optioned portion of the Blackflake West are either 100% or 50% owned by Xmet Inc. As of the date of publication of this news release, Xmet has performed enough work commitments on the property to keep its option agreement in good standing until May 2016.

About Xmet's Grasset Project

In January 2015 Xmet completed a 330 line kilometre Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic ("VTEM") and Magnetic Gradiometer Survey on its 100% owned Grasset Project. The survey was a follow up to its March 2012 geophysics when the Company mobilized a geophysical crew onto the property to carry out 28 line km of a gradient induced polarization survey over the interpreted trace of the Detour-Sunday Lake Deformation Zone. Results of the completed part of the survey were announced on 3 May, 2012. The survey clearly identified a favourable gold target in the survey. Phase two of ground geophysics was completed in March 2013 totalling 68 line km of gradient IP with an additional 8 line km of a detailed pole-dipole survey also covering the SLDZ.
