(CZX - TSX Venture),is pleased to announce additional drill results from the 2011 exploration  program on its 100% owned Akie Project.\nThe Akie property, host to the Cardiac Creek SEDEX Zn-Pb-Ag deposit, is located approximately 260 kilometers north-northwest of the town of Mackenzie, in northeastern British Columbia, Canada. The Company also owns the Kechika group of regional properties that extend northwest from the Akie property for 140 kilometers, centered along the prospective stratigraphy of the Gunsteel Formation of Northeastern B.C. The 2011 exploration program also included a regional program focused principally on 2 southern claim groupings, the Pie and the Mt. Alcock properties. Analysis of the regional results is ongoing.  \nAkie Property\nDiamond drilling on the Akie property commenced in May and lasted approximately 4 months. Work included HQ diamond drilling on several targets across the Akie property including the SE Extension, Cardiac Creek Zone, the NW Extension and the GPS bedded barite showing. The drilling program consisted of 12 holes totaling 5,667.81 metres that were drilled to their planned depths. Three holes totaling 360.58 metres were abandoned due to poor ground conditions or excessive deviation. Refer to press release dated December 5th, 2011 for previously released 2011 drill results.\nThe updated results from the drilling program are summarized below. \nCardiac Creek Deposit\nA total of 6 drill holes (A-11-92, A-11-93, A-11-95, A-11-96, A-11-98 and A-11-99) were completed on the Cardiac Creek deposit. These holes provided infill information both up and down-dip as well as testing the strike extent of the high grade trend along the southeastern edges of the deposit. Step-out drilling was also conducted to the southeast designed to expand the known limits of the deposit.\nTo date, Canada Zinc Metals has received assay results from 4 of the 6 Cardiac Creek Zone drill holes. This includes the previously reported holes A-11-92 and A-11-93 and new results from A-11-95 and A-11-96. The pierce point for hol...
