Erin Ventures Completes Current Boron Property Exploration Program

Victoria, British Columbia (FSCwire) - Erin Ventures Inc. [TSXV: EV] is pleased to confirm that it has completed its previously announced exploration program on its 100% owned Piskanja boron project in Serbia. The completion of this work program ensures that Erin is compliant with its obligations required to keep its exploration license in good standing and extend it into 2020, as well as being integral to Erin’s goal of advancing the Piskanja project towards feasibility. The work program, consisting of 10 vertical HQ-sized diamond drill holes (for a combined total of 3,084 meters), was completed on time and on budget.

Piskanja is Erin’s wholly-owned high-grade boron deposit with an indicated mineral resource of 7.8 million tonnes (averaging 31 percent B₂O₃), and an inferred resource of 3.4 million tonnes (averaging 28.6 percent B₂O₃), calculated in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves (CIM Standards) as disclosed in Erin’s filed report titled, “Mineral Resource Estimate Update On The Piskanja Borate Project, Serbia, October 2016”.

Visually in field tests, each of the final five (previously unreported) drill cores (holes #153 to 157) indicate the existence of massive borate mineralization, that confirms the continuity of several known mineral beds and correlates very well with results from previously drilled adjacent holes (on a 100x100 m, or a 50x50 m grid). This was also evident in the first five drill holes (#148 to 152) from this program, as reported by Erin in a news release dated May 3, 2018. Additionally, several previously unknown mineralized zones have been noted in this drill program.

Hole 153 intersected 5 known mineral beds, and returned massive borates over an aggregate of 21.6m, including one bed of 9.6m and one of 5.4m.

Hole 154 intersected 3 known mineral beds and 1 new mineralized zone, and returned massive borates over an aggregate of 15.9m, including one bed of 7.5m and one of 5.9m.

Hole 155 intersected 5 known mineral beds and one new mineralized zone, and returned massive borates over an aggregate of 30.1m, including one bed of 13.1m and one of 9.4m.

Hole 156 intersected 4 known mineral beds, and returned massive borates over an aggregate of 11.3m, including one bed of 4.6m.

Hole 157 intersected 4 known mineral beds, and returned massive borates over an aggregate of 24.5m, including one bed of 9.6m and one bed of 6.8m.

The first 230 samples have sent for chemical analysis with more to follow. Results will be reported as received.

This work program was designed to ensure that the project continues to comply with both the Canadian Institute of Mining "Best Practice Guidelines", and the Republic of Serbia Ministry of Mining and Energy mine development and licensing regulations.

On behalf of the Board of Directors,

Blake Fallis, General Manager
