    TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Jan. 11, 2017) - Metals Creek Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:MEK) (the "Company") is pleased to announce final drill results from its recently completed diamond drill program targeted on expanding the Thomas Ogden Gold Zone (TOG), located in the heart of the Timmins gold camp. This program consisted of six holes (2382 meters) and was successful in further defining the TOG Zone and host stratigraphy. Results from the first hole, TOG-16-47, was outlined in a previous release dated Nov 15, 2016 and included an intersection of 5.73 g/t (grammes per tonne) gold over 8.2m (meters). Highlights from the remaining 5 holes described in this release, included an intersection of 4.39 g/t over 12.45m from hole TOG-16-48.

    The Property is held under a joint venture in which Metals Creek owns 50%, and Goldcorp Canada Ltd. ("Goldcorp") owns 50% (as manager and on behalf of the Porcupine Joint Venture, a joint venture between Goldcorp Inc. and Goldcorp Canada Ltd.) with MEK being the operator of the project. The Ogden claims cover eight kilometers of strike length of the Porcupine-Destor Fault between Goldcorp's 16.5 million oz. Dome Mine and Tahoe Resources' West Timmins Mine. The vast majority of the Porcupine-Destor Fault on the property is underexplored, compared to other properties in the Timmins gold camp.

    TOG 16-48 was a 45m undercut below previously released hole TOG 13-27 which intersected several zones of mineralization including a down hole intercept of 49.96 g/t Au over 9.0m (MEK NR April 10, 2013). Hole TOG 16-48 intersected the zone at a down-hole depth of 199.95m and assayed 4.39 g/t gold over 12.45 m. This intersection is typical of the TOG Zone and is described as a strongly altered felsite and conglomerate characterized by strong albitization and silicification with associated disseminated pyrite, local arsenopyrite and visible gold.

    Results from all drill holes in the recent program are included as table 1 below:
