The Canadian Chrome Company Inc. Announces Its Engagement of Origin Merchant Partners as the Company's Financial Advisor

The Canadian Chrome Company Inc., (CSE: CACR,OTC:KWGBF) (CSE: CACR,OTC:KWGBF.A) formerly known as KWG Resources Inc ("CCC" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce that it has engaged Origin Merchant Partners as the Company's financial advisor to assist with consideration of the Company's strategic position and assessment of the Company's strategic options and alternatives.

"Origin Merchant Partners was highly recommended when we started looking for a financial advisor to assist us with our assessment of the various courses forward for our Company," said Frank Smeenk, Chief Executive Officer of the Company. "Now, with the recent development of trade talks between Canada and the United States, the focus by both countries on critical minerals which now includes chromite for both of them, and efforts on the proposed roads to the Ring of Fire progressing, we believe that this is the right time to consider our Company's strategic options and alternatives. We also believe that Origin Merchant Partners is the right financial advisor to assist us with our assessments of these issues. Paul Spafford's virtuosity in moving Barrick Gold's 2005 unsolicited stock and cash bid for Placer Dome from US$9.2 billion to a US$10.4 billion cash-or-stock bid, commended Origin Merchant Partners in the context of the internal valuation work we had previously shared with Rio Tinto, Glencore, and numerous USA agencies more recently."
