Quantum Minerals Plans Upcoming Drill Program for Flin Flon District, Namew Lake Vms Project

Vancouver, B.C., November 18,
2013 - QMC Quantum Minerals Corp. (QMC-TSX.V) (QMCQF-OTC)
(3LQ-FSE) ("QMC" or the "Company") is pleased
to announce plans for a comprehensive work program including 6,000
metres of diamond drilling and refined geophysics on the Company's
100% owned Namew Lake Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) Project,
previously referred to as the Rocky Lake VMS Project.
Located within the
Flin Flon Mining District in northwestern Manitoba, the
39,236 hectare Namew Lake VMS Project is adjacent to the eastern side of Hudbay
Minerals' (HBM-TSX) Namew Lake Mine which produced
2.57 million tonnes
of Copper, Nickel, Gold, Silver, Palladium, and
Platinum. The Flin Flon mining district
(including the Snow Lake deposits) comprises one of the largest VMS
districts in the world with more than 118.7 million tonnes of
sulphide ore mined from 25 deposits by the mid 1990's, with an
additional 64.3 million tonnes of mineralized rock defined in 43
sub-economic deposits.
The
Company's Rocky Lake VMS property was first
discovered by Hudbay through an airborne survey that identified a 5
kilometre long conductor, followed up with ground EM surveys that
verified a 1,500 metre conductive corridor. A subsequent airborne
survey commissioned by QMC identified a total of 41 conductors
using the VTEM+ system. The successful 9-hole drill campaign during
the 2012 exploration season resulted in visible chalcopyrite at the
end of hole RL11-2 for confirmation that the deep-seated conductor
had been missed by the prior Hudbay programs. Core drillings on the
properties to date have yielded significant intercepts
including 0.65%
Copper over 9.0 metres and grading up
to 3.0% Copper in drill core.
For the 2013-2014 exploration
season, the Company plans to complete a two phase work program to
further investigate the Namew Lake VMS Project as an economic
mineral resource, recommended by Garth Kirkham (P.Geoph. P.Geo.) in
the 43-101 report completed and filed in May 2013. This extensive
exploration program includes 2,500 metres of diamond drilling in
phase one and 3,500 metres in phase two; a program with specific
focus on the potential high grade massive sulphide formation in
addition to drilling on select conductors from the 41 geophysics
targets and will include the detailing and refining of current
drill targets using the TITAN24 system.

Quantum Minerals CEO, Balraj Mann states, "Our Namew Lake
VMS Project is located in the Flin Flon Greenstone Belt of
northwestern Manitoba which is host to nine operating mines and is
recognized as a world class VMS district. Following our recent
success in drilling of the Rocky Lake VMS property within our Namew
Lake Project, we are looking forward to the 2013 exploration
program and will continue to develop our district scale project
into an economic mineral resource."
