Santa Fe Metals-Sully SU14-08 Passes 225m on Planned Trajectory

Santa Fe Metals Corporation (TSX VENTURE:SFM) ("SFM" or the "Company") announces
that drill hole SU14-08 has recently passed a hole depth of 225-m at the Sully
Project, and is currently coring Lower Aldridge formation host rocks on a
planned trajectory to test the large-scale East gravity mass at approximately
900-m below surface, see figure attached.


2014 Drilling Summary

The previous drill hole completed on May 6, 2014 (DDH SU14-07) revealed that
Aldridge Formation unit A1c is the likely host to the East Target - this
correlates with the stratigraphy that hosts the Sullivan orebody, 30-kms to the
west of Sully. A marked thickening of A1c in SU14-07 implies proximity to an
accumulation centre of an inferred sub-basin assemblage. Within this thickening
is a 50-m interval containing traces of lead, zinc and copper sulphides and
unusual thin silica beds thought to be derived from hydrothermal solutions
associated with formation of a mineral deposit. Updates and comparisons on
drilling observations in the current hole (SU14-08) will be provided as drilling
progresses.


The Sully Project

Sully is located near Fort Steele, 30-kms east of the world-famous Sullivan mine
at Kimberley, B.C. The East Target is one of two large-scale gravity mass
anomalies estimated to come within 800-m of surface and extending to depth.
Recent drilling has successfully confirmed Lower Aldridge formation host rocks,
and importantly, a projection for Sullivan time that is coincident with the East
gravity mass. Coincident magnetic anomalies reinforce the positioning of the
East and West gravity masses also estimated to be approximately 800-m apart.
Management believes the best explanation for the twin gravity anomalies is the
presence of two very large and vertically oriented SEDEX massive sulphide
bodies. While the initial phase of exploration in 2014 is focused on the East
target, work is planned to expand to the West Target in the near future.


The Sullivan Mine

Sullivan was discovered in 1892 and is one of the largest SEDEX deposits in the
world. Over its roughly 100-year lifetime, Sullivan produced almost 300 million
ounces of silver, 36 billion pounds of lead and zinc plus smaller amounts of
other metals, collectively worth over $40 billion at current metal prices. The
company cautions that past results or discoveries on proximate land are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved on the Sully
property.
