("CTEC" or the "Company") (TSXV: CTEC) is pleased to announce the closing of the previously announced sale of certain non-core claims to Goldcorp Canada Ltd., a subsidiary of Newmont Goldcorp Corporation ("Newmont Goldcorp").

The Claims consist of nine patented mineral claims in Deloro Township, Timmins, Ontario with a total area of approximately 132 hectares.
