SME Sama Resources Inc

Sama Resources Inc./Ressources Sama Inc. ("Sama" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:SME) is pleased to announce a new discovery of nickel-copper sulphide
mineralization at the company's Yepleu Project. The Yepleu Project is located 18
kilometers ("km") southwest of the Samapleu nickel-copper-palladium deposits at
the southwest boundary of the Samapleu Project in Cote d'Ivoire, West Africa.
Drill holes YE32-418407 and YE32-418407B intersected 41 meters ("m") and 36 m
respectively of mineralized pyroxenite with disseminated chalcopyrite,
pentlandite and pyrrhotite sulphides including a combined 4.3 m and 4.0 m
respectively of semi-massive sulphide mineralization at the Yepleu Project. The
mineralized intersects are related to a 2.8 km InfiniTEM ground geophysical
conductor lineament outlined by Abitibi Geophysics in August 2013.


The reader is invited to view the figure showing the highly prospective
InfiniTEM targets together with the location of current drill holes at

Sama Resources President & CEO Dr. Marc-Antoine Audet states: "We are very
pleased about this new discovery. It's a clear indication that Sama's geological
model applied since its inception in 2010 is the right one. These results
further confirm Sama's belief of having discovered a new world-class
nickel-copper-palladium camp in Cote d'Ivoire, West-Africa."


The disseminated mineralization is typically characterised by fine isolated
grains to large granular aggregates of nickel, copper and iron sulphides.
Sulphide phases observed so far include pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, pentlandite
and minor pyrite. Pentlandite occurs as inclusions in pyrrhotite. Disseminated
sulphide occurs as fine grains of 0.5 to 1 millimetre in diameter, showing a
high ratio of pyrrhotite versus chalcopyrite. Sulphide veinlets and fine
filaments are also present. Composite grains of sulphide material are dominant,
forming sulphide masses of odd shapes ranging from a few millimetres up to
several centimetres in any one dimension. The semi-massive mineralization lenses
show between 30% to 70% sulphide minerals. 


Drilling continues at the Yepleu Project using both of Sama's 100% owned
Coretech CSD 1300G drill rigs.


The purpose of the InfiniTEM surveys was to delineate semi-massive and massive
material at depths of up to 500 m and to compliment the results of the
Helicopter Time-Domain Electromagnetic & Magnetic ("HTEM") airborne survey
performed in January of this year. 


Surface sampling activities undertaken by the Company over the past several
months have outlined the very high potential of the sector with surface showings
with visible chalcopyrite and pentlandite. 


Detailed geophysical interpretation of the airborne HTEM Survey has identified
more than 20 high priority targets for nickel-copper-palladium exploration.
Strong HTEM survey conductors were identified at the Samapleu Main and Samapleu
Extension 1 nickel-copper-palladium deposits as well as along a corridor of more
than 25 km oriented northeast-southwest. The Yepleu Project is just one of them.


The HTEM Survey clearly demonstrates the discovery potential for additional
nickel-copper sulphide deposits.

Core logging and sampling was performed at Sama's facility in Yorodougou
village. Sample preparations for the nickel-copper sulphide exploration program
were performed at Societe de Developpement de Gouessesso's sample preparation
facility in Gouessesso village under Sama's supervision. Sample pulps will be
delivered to Bureau Veritas Mineral Laboratory's facility in Abidjan ("BVML")
for dispatch by BVML directly to their assay laboratory, Ultra Trace Pty, in
Perth, Australia. All samples will be assayed for nickel, copper, platinum,
palladium, cobalt, rhodium and gold. The results should be available in
approximately 4 weeks.
