(CZX - TSX Venture), is pleased to announce its 2013 exploration plans for the Akie and Kechika Regional projects. The Akie property is the Company's flagship exploration project and is host to the Cardiac Creek SEDEX Zn-Pb-Ag deposit. The Kechika Regional Project, represented by a series of property blocks including Pie and Mt. Alcock, extends northwest from the Akie property for approximately 140 kilometers covering the highly prospective Gunsteel Formation shale. The southernmost project boundary is located approximately 260 kilometers north-northwest of the town of Mackenzie, in northeastern British Columbia, Canada.  \nThe 2013 Exploration Program \nThe 2013 exploration program will have two main objectives: up to 4,000 metres of diamond drilling planned for the Akie property; and an expansion of the 2012 airborne VTEM survey that was completed over the Akie, Pie and Mt. Alcock properties.\nThe Akie Exploration Camp has been opened for the season and exploration crews are now mobilizing to site to commence the airborne VTEM Geophysical Survey.\nThe Akie Property Drill Program\nPlans are now finalized for an up to 4,000 metre drilling program on the Akie property. This program will test several key targets such as the Cardiac Creek deposit, the GPS bedded barite showing, the South Zinc Anomaly and other promising property-scale targets that have been identified through careful analysis of exploration data coincident with anomaly targets from the 2012 Airborne VTEM survey. \nThe Cardiac Creek deposit will once again be tested with several targets along the northwest and southeast margins. These targets have been selected to demonstrate the ongoing continuity of the high grade nature within the core of the deposit as well as expanding its known limits.\nThe GPS bedded barite showing will be another target for this year's drilling program. Hole A-11-100, the final drill hole from the 2011 program, attempted to test the GPS showing but was abandoned due to poor ground conditions. The GPS bedded barite showing is represented by thickly bedded massive barite mineraliza...
