Era Resources Announces Results from Proximal Surface Program at Its Yandera Copper Project and Plans for 2016 Drilling

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - April 6, 2016) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Era Resources Inc. ("Era" or the "Company") (TSX:ERX) is pleased to announce results of the proximal surface exploration program at its Yandera copper project in Papua New Guinea, and plans for a drilling campaign in 2016.

During the latter portion of 2015, geologists mapped and collected 543 rock and 581 soil samples from areas around the footprint of the resource estimate announced in May of 2015. This field work was designed to identify prospective zones outside the limits of the 2015 resource and to develop quality drill targets to expand the resource.

Results from this work show copper mineralization at surface in the Kauwo, South Dimbi-East Gremi and Benbenubu prospect areas, where a number of assays from samples indicated copper concentrations in excess of 0.15% Cu in soils and 0.5% Cu in rocks (Figure 1). These results enhance historical surface geochemistry and are encouraging for expanding the edges of the resource into these prospects, especially in the area southeast of Gremi and Omora.

Detailed work on the geologic model and further analysis of the 2015 resource estimation revealed opportunity to in-fill some gaps within the constraining pit model with additional drilling. Era anticipates drilling approximately 6,000 metres of core to add data to some of these gaps. Positive results in these areas would allow conversion of some of the 'in-pit' waste to ore and could allow pit access to known deeper copper mineralization.

Further to the in-fill drilling, Era anticipates drilling approximately 2,500 metres of core to test for extensions of copper mineralization outside of the resource in prospective areas examined in the 2015 proximal surface program. Positive results in these areas would expand the footprint of the 2015 resource pit and add total tonnage to the overall resource.

Era expects to begin the drilling program at Yandera in the near term, barring delays due to the rainy season.

Quality Control

Analyses were completed by Intertek Labs utilizing fire assay and multi-element ICP-OES methods with internal checks, blanks, duplicates and standards at various intervals in the sequence of samples. Era also inserted standards within the sequence of samples. Data referenced herein was prepared under the supervision of Dr. Nathan Chutas, Exploration Manager, certified professional geologist and Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This news release contains forward looking information. It includes statements with respect to the share consolidation and changes to the listing of the common shares of the Company on the Toronto Stock Exchange as a result of the consolidation and the name change. Such forward-looking information is often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "seek", "anticipate", "believe", "plan", "estimate", "expect" and "intend" and statements that an event or result "may", "will", "should", "could", or "might" occur or to be achieved and any other similar expressions.

In providing the forward-looking information in this news release, the Company has made numerous assumptions regarding: (i) the accuracy of exploration results received to date; (ii) anticipated costs and expenses; (iii) the accuracy of the Company's mineral resource estimate; (iv) the future price of copper and molybdenum; (v) that the supply and demand for copper, molybdenum, and other metals develop as expected; and (iv) that the share consolidation and name change begin trading as indicated. Although management believes that the assumptions made and the expectations represented by such information are reasonable, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking information will prove to be accurate. Forward-looking information is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking information, including a change in the expected timing of the implementation of the trading under the new ticker symbol and new name on a consolidated basis.

Although Marengo has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be anticipated, estimated or intended.
