Constantine Reports Significant 150 meter Step-Out Drill Intersection at Palmer Project, Alaska---2.5% Copper and 4.1% Zinc over 22.1 Meters

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - July 22, 2014) - Constantine Metal Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:CEM) ("Constantine" or the "Company") is pleased to report results for the first two holes of a 10,000 meter drill program on its Palmer VMS Project, Alaska ("Palmer" or "Project"). The initial 2014 drilling has intersected a thick lens of high-grade massive sulphide 150 meters down dip of the lower edge of the South Wall Zone.

Garfield MacVeigh, President and CEO states; "This is an exciting development. Hole CMR14-54 not only expands the footprint of the South Wall zones but opens up the opportunity for considerable further expansion and will be a focus for ongoing drilling. The thickness and high copper content associated with a large conductive target enhances the potential around this new area."

Drillhole CMR14-54 returned 22.1 meters grading 2.48 percent copper, 4.05 percent zinc, 24.0 grams per tonne silver and 0.39 grams per tonne gold. The intersection represents a major expansion of the zone to depth (see Long Section Figure 1 and Cross Section Figure 2: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/958670_FIGURES.pdf). The hole was designed to test a large conductive plate modeled from downhole geophysical data that is located on projection southwest and downdip of the existing deposit. CMR14-54 confirms that the conductive plate is associated with massive sulphide as shown on the long section, and when combined with the width, copper-rich grade and character of the mineralization observed, suggests excellent potential to significantly expand the South Wall Zone. South Wall mineralization has now been defined over a vertical distance of over 600 meters, and remains open to expansion at depth and along strike.

The geophysical target intersected in CMR14-54 is more strongly conductive and significantly larger than the conductive area of drill-defined portions of Zone I, II and III (see Figure 1: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/958670_FIGURES.pdf) located up-dip within the existing mineral resource. Non-conductive zinc-copper-barite mineralization extends peripheral to conductive mineralization in the up-dip Zones and similar zonation may occur at depth, peripheral to the modelled conductive plate intersected by CMR14-54.

Drillhole CMR14-53 was targeted to intersect South Wall mineralization approximately 100 meters up dip of CMR10-39 (2.5m of 1.1% Cu, 4.5% Zn). Drillhole deviation resulted in an intersection of similar tenor mineralization that was within 20 meters of CMR10-39. Results are reported in Table 1 below.

This drill program is part of a US$6.2 million budget for 2014 funded by partner Dowa Metals & Mining Co., Ltd. of Japan ("Dowa"). Dowa are in the second year of an option agreement in which they can earn 49% in the Palmer Project by making aggregate expenditures of US$22 million over four years.

Constantine also reports that construction has commenced on a 4 km exploration access road that, when complete, will provide vehicle access to the base of the South Wall area of work.

About the Palmer Project

Palmer is an early resource expansion stage, high-grade volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) project that hosts a 4.75 million tonne inferred resource estimate grading 1.84% copper, 4.57% zinc, 0.28 g/t gold and 29.0 g/t silver*. The project is located in a very accessible part of coastal southeast Alaska, with road access to the edge of the property and within 60 kilometres of the year-round deep sea port of Haines. Mineralization at Palmer occurs within the same belt of rocks that is host to the Greens Creek mine, one of the world's richest VMS deposits.

Drilling of 32 holes by Constantine between 2006 and 2009 led to the discovery of thick continuous zones of massive sulphide mineralization at the South Wall and RW Zones of the Glacier Creek prospect, and calculation of an initial mineral resource estimate. The total footprint of mineralization has been expanded with an additional 20 holes completed in 2010 and 2013, with the majority of this drilling consisting of step-outs from the resource estimate. The South Wall and RW Zones occupy the same time-stratigraphic intervals on opposite limbs of a large-scale anticline, and all zones intersected in drilling remain open to expansion laterally and to depth. There are at least 25 separate base metal and/or barite occurrences and prospects on the Palmer property, indicating the presence of a very extensive mineralized system with potential for discovery of multiple deposits.

About the Company

* See the Company's technical report entitled, "Palmer VMS Project, Southeast Alaska, Mineral Resource Estimation and Exploration Update" dated March 4, 2010 and available on www.sedar.com. Resource estimate utilizes an NSR cut-off of US$50/t with assumed metal prices of US$700/oz for gold, US$12/oz for silver, US$2.25/lb for copper, and US$0.85/lb for zinc, with estimated metal recoveries of 55%, 55%, 90%, and 90% respectively. An "Inferred Mineral Resource is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade or quality can be estimated on the basis of geological evidence and limited sampling and reasonably assumed, but not verified, geological and grade continuity. Due to the uncertainty that may be attached to Inferred Mineral Resources, it cannot be assumed that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource will be upgraded to an Indicated or Measured Mineral Resource as a result of continued exploration. Confidence in the estimate is insufficient to allow the meaningful application of technical and economic parameters or to enable an evaluation of economic viability worthy of public disclosure.

Notes:

Samples of drill core were cut by a diamond blade rock saw, with half of the cut core placed in individual sealed polyurethane bags and half placed back in the original core box for permanent storage. Sample lengths typically vary from a minimum 0.3 meter interval to a maximum 2.0 meter interval, with an average 1.0 to 1.5 meter sample length. Drill core samples were shipped by transport truck in sealed woven plastic bags to ALS Minerals laboratory facility in North Vancouver for analysis. ALS Minerals operate according to the guidelines set out in ISO/IEC Guide 25. Gold was determined by fire-assay fusion of a 30 g sub-sample with atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). Various metals including silver, gold, copper, lead and zinc were analyzed by inductively-coupled plasma (ICP) atomic emission spectroscopy, following multi-acid digestion. The elements silver, copper, lead and zinc were determined by ore grade assay for samples that returned values >10,000 ppm by ICP analysis. Density measurements were determined at the project site by qualified Constantine personnel on cut core for each assay sample.

The 2014 exploration program for the Palmer project is managed by Darwin Green, VP Exploration for Constantine Metal Resources Ltd. and a qualified person as defined by Canadian National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Green has reviewed the information contained in this news release and has also verified the analytical data for drill core samples disclosed in this release by reviewing the blanks, duplicates and certified reference material standards and confirming that they fall within limits as determined by acceptable industry practice. The analytical results have also been compared to visual estimates for the base metals to check for any obvious discrepancies between analytical results and the visual estimates.
