Transition Metals (XTM-V) June 4, '14 is releasing initial assay results from the 2014 diamond drill program completed at the company's Sunday Lake project, located near Thunder Bay, Ont. The Sunday Lake Project is a joint venture between Transition and Impala Platinum Holdings Limited (Implats) of South Africa. The results are from the first three holes submitted of a five hole, 2,550 metre drill program designed to further assess the extent and continuity of platinum rich mineralization reported in January (see news release dated January 27, 2014). Two of the three holes intersected significant platinum rich mineralization including the highest grade material yet encountered. Hole SL-14-003 returned two mineralized intervals including a 15 metre interval containing 2.84 g/t combined precious metals (Pt+Pd+Au or PGMs) that included a 1 metre interval containing 9.75 g/t PGMs.

Figure 1 presents a plan view depicting the collar locations of reported holes. Commenting on the program, CEO Scott McLean stated "The Sunday Lake intrusion appears to have exceptional prospectivity for hosting economic deposits given the size of the intrusion and thick intersections of high platinum content mineralization. To date the drilling programs have defined a mineralized corridor that is approximately 500 metres by 200 metres in size that remains open in all directions. This corridor represents a very small portion of what we believe to be a very large and fertile intrusion."

Discussion of ResultsInitial results from the first three holes of the 2014 Sunday Lake diamond drilling program continue to demonstrate the intrusion's potential to host an economic Ni-Cu-PGM deposit. Thick intersections of gabbroic breccias, ultramafic lithologies and hydrothermally altered country rocks suggest the Sunday Lake Intrusion (SLI) is a relatively large, primitive and contaminated intrusion that has been dynamically emplaced. To date all holes that have intersected the intrusion have encountered elevated, high platinum tenor PGM mineralization.

SL-14-001 (420m: 290Adegree/-80Adegree): Intersected several narrow mafic to ultramafic dikes (<2m) which cross cut strongly altered granodiorite country rocks.

SL-14-002 (495m: 315Adegree/-75Adegree): Intersected 56.4 metres of the SLI from 368.7-425.1 metres. An 8.0 metre wide zone of blebby to disseminated chalcopyrite+pyrhhotite+pyrite mineralization from 412-420.00 metres returned assay values of 1.67 g/t PGMs, including 3.0 metres of 2.62 g/t PGMs from 417-420 metres.

SL-14-003 (564m: 315Adegree/-87Adegree): Intersected 150.4 metres of the SLI from 389.3 to 539.7 metres. Two zones of significant PGM mineralization were intersected; An 11.7 metre wide zone from 389.3 to 401.0 metres returned 2.79 g/t PGMs within a gabbroic breccia containing 1-5% disseminated to blebby chalcopyrite+pyrrhotite+pyrite mineralization. Within this interval, a 1.0 metre sample from 393.0 to 394.0 metres returned the highest grade assay on the property to date of 9.75 g/t PGM's including 6.34 g/t platinum. A second mineralized zone containing 1-3% chalcopyrite+pyrrhotite from 526.0-541.0 metres contained 15.0 metres grading 2.84 g/t PGMs.

Program UpdateA total of five holes totaling 2,550 metres were drilled at the Sunday Lake Project in April and May, with the disclosed results representing assays received from the first three holes. At present, drilling on the property is on hold until final results are reviewed.

About the Sunday Lake PropertyThe Sunday Lake Property is located approximately 25 km north of Thunder Bay and 25 km west of Panoramic Resources Limited's, Thunder Bay North deposit and consists of staked claims and privately owned land optioned in 2013 from Rio Tinto Exploration Canada Inc. (RTEC) and other property holders. The property covers a 3.5 km diameter circular reversely-polarized magnetic anomaly associated with the large buried mafic-ultramafic intrusion interpreted to be Proterozoic in age and related to the Midcontinental Rift (MCR). The MCR is a 2,000 km long geological rift in the center of North America that formed when the North American craton, began to split apart about 1.1 billion years ago. Early phases ('early-rift') of mafic to ultramafic intrusive rocks, with high associated PGMs occur within the MCR. In recent years, several deposits have been discovered in the MCR, including:Lundin Mining Corporation's Eagle deposit: 5.33 Mt @ 3.1% Ni, 2.5% Cu, 1.32 g/t PGM (Probable) A Superscript one Panoramic Resource Limited's Thunder Bay North deposit: 9.83 Mt @ 2.87 g/t Pt-Eq for 0.741 Moz Pt-Eq (Indicated) + 0.53 Mt @ 2.87 g/t Pt-Eq for 0.05 Moz Pt-Eq (Inferred)A Superscript two

All samples were analyzed in Vancouver by ALS Chemex. Platinum, palladium and gold values were determined together using standard lead oxide collection fire assay and ICP-AES finish. Base metal values were determined using lithium metaborate fusion and ICP-MS. Standards and blanks are submitted with each sample batch.
