MELKIOR ACQUIRES CLAIMS IN HEMLO AREA

Melkior Resources Inc. has staked 51 claim units totalling 2,016 acres in the Hemlo area, Ontario. The claims are located approximately 15 kilometres northeast of the Hemlo gold mine currently operated by Barrick Gold Corp. Melkior is always searching for new opportunities and has added these claims to its inventory as a strategic move due to renewed interest in the area by Golden Peak Minerals Inc. and Canadian Orebodies Inc.

The company will continue to focus on its Carscallen property in the Timmins area. An exploration plan for the Carscallen property for 2017 will be posted on the company's website and presented to shareholders at the annual general meeting on Feb. 21, 2017, at the Ramada Hotel in Timmins.
