Nippon Dragon Resources, Inc. Addresses IIROC Request for News Clarification

Brossard, Quebec / TheNewswire / December 11th, 2015 Nippon Dragon Resources Inc. (the "Corporation" or "Nippon") (TSX-V Symbol: NIP), received a request for clarification of news by the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC), and as a result its shares were temporarily halted on Thursday, December 10, 2015. The action was a result of a review of a press release disseminated on December 10th, 2015, titled, "Nippon Dragon's Green Thermal Fragmentation Modernizing the Mining Industry", which included overly promotional statements and language and that did not satisfy the requirements of NI43-101 or TMX-Venture Exchange policy.

Nippon Dragon is cooperating fully with the IIROC and is retracting the aforementioned release in its entirety.

Nippon is active in the exploration and the development of gold resources in Quebec. The Corporation holds a gold property with resources recognised in accordance with NI43-101, a modular treatment plant and also an exclusive license for the Thermal Fragmentation mining method.

The company's growth strategy is based on:

• -The development of its gold deposits with the objective of producing revenue from its operations;

  -Increasing the value of its mining assets by prioritizing the exploration targets; and

  -The commercialisation and employment of its thermal fragmentation technology.
