July 14, 2015 - Strategic Metals Ltd. (TSX-V: SMD) ("Strategic") announces that it has negotiated a property exchange agreement with Rockhaven Resources Ltd. ("Rockhaven"), pursuant to which Strategic has agreed to transfer five mineral properties, being the BBB, Sked/Desk, Dade, Queen and Nor properties in the Yukon, as well as make a $250,000 cash payment to Rockhaven, in exchange for Rockhaven's Plata, Mount Hinton/Gram, Groundhog/Grayling/Cyr, Zap and Kluane/Ellias properties in the Yukon. Strategic currently holds 48,847,500 common shares of Rockhaven, representing 46.59% of Rockhaven's currently issued and outstanding common share capital.

As this transaction is considered a "related party transaction" pursuant to the provisions of Multilateral Instrument 61-101, it will require "minority approval" from each of Strategic's and Rockhaven's shareholders at their Annual General and Special Meetings to be held later this summer, as well as acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange.

"This property swap allows Rockhaven to consolidate its land position around its Klaza deposit while Strategic adds a number of drill-ready gold and silver projects to its portfolio." states Doug Eaton, CEO of Strategic. "It is a good deal because it strengthens the effective assets of both companies."

In support of this transaction, Strategic appointed a special committee of independent directors to review its merits; the special committee then retained Bruce McKnight Minerals Advisor Services ("McKnight") to prepare a "fairness opinion" in respect of the transaction, which will be included in the Management Information Circular to be distributed to Strategic's shareholders in connection with its Annual General and Special Meeting, at which minority approval from Strategic's shareholders for the transaction will be sought.

Based upon and subject to the limitations contained in the fairness opinion, and such other matters as McKnight has considered relevant, it is McKnight's opinion that, as of the date of the fairness opinion, the terms of the proposed transaction are fair from a financial point of view to Strategic's shareholders.
