GIGA COMPLETES LAND SWAP WITH COPPER FOX METALS

Giga Metals Corp. has completed a tenure swap with Copper Fox Metals Inc., which has land on the western border of Giga's Turnagain project in Northern British Columbia. A total of 1,910.28 hectares in a strip along the northwest of the Turnagain claims was traded to Copper Fox in exchange for 2,153.44 hectares toward the southwest portion of the Turnagain claims.

"We are very happy to successfully complete this trade," said Mark Jarvis, chief executive officer of Giga Metals. "The tenure we acquired covers ground that impinges on our most probable tailings management facility location and also covers our second-most likely mill site. The tenure swapped to Copper Fox is not proximal to our deposit and proposed infrastructure and, to the best of our knowledge, has no mineralization of interest."
