MINERAL MOUNTAIN INTERSECTS 2.12 GPT OVER 20.0 METERS

EXTENDS STEEPLY PLUNGING HIGH GRADE SHOOT

TO 230 METERS DOWN PLUNGE

(Vancouver, August 8 , 2018 ): Mineral Mountain Resources Ltd. and its subsidiary Mineral

Mountain Resources (SD) Inc. (“Mineral Mountain” or the “Companies”) (TSX.V: “MMV”)

(“OTCQX: MNRLF”) are pleased to report that a total of six (6) of the planned twelve (12) NQ

diamond drill holes have now been completed totaling 2,155m on the Companies Standby Mine

Target in the Rochford District in the Black Hills of South Dakota. The analytical results for the

first three holes, ST18-001, ST18-002 and ST18-003, were released on May 03, 2018. Drill hole

ST18-006 was successful in intersecting the steeply plunging high grade shoot that hosts the

Standby Mine deposit 230m below surface and 50m down plunge of historical drill hole BLG-

UG3 which graded 3.36 g/t Au over 24 meters . This high grade shoot occurs within a 34m

wide classic Homestake-style quartz-chlorite breccia with silica flooding, 3 -15% coarse-grained

arsenopyrite and 3 -7% p yrrhotite. Hole ST18 -006 grades 2.12 g/t Au over 20 meters

including 4.39 g/t Au over 2.5 m and 5.24 g/t Au over 1.5 m. (see 3D Isometric View and Drill

Hole Locations posted on the Company’s website www.mineralmtn.com ). (Note: Pictures of

arsenopyrite-bearing core from ST18 -006 ha ve been posted on the Company’s website

www.mineralmtn.com)

Drill hole ST18 -004, which recorded low gold values wandered off its planned course and did

not intersect major intervals of the Rochford iron formation . Hole ST18-005, the deepest drill

hole in this campaign to date at 352.3 m , intersected 1.50 g/t Au over 5.7 meters . This hole did

not target the Standby Mine high grade shoot. Upon completion of ST18 -005, th is hole was

geophysically probed thus providing a strong vector toward the 34 m wide Standby Mine shoot.

Presently, drill hole ST18 -007 is in progress and is designed to test both a second southeasterly

trending mineralized structure averaging 30m in width occu rring west of the Standby Mine high

grade shoot (referred to as the West Limb Structure) and the down plunge extension of the high

grade shoot referenced above approximately 100m down plunge from ST18-006.

Curt Hogge, chief geologist for the Company, commented: “ The 34-meter wide Homestake-type

mineralized core interval in ST18 -006 from 1 49.0 – 183.0 meters downhole, from a visual

standpoint, is a classic Homestake -style quartz flooded, intensely altered and locally brecciated

iron formation as well as replace style mineraliz ation in iron formation . The untested potential

down - dip and down - plunge represents a strong compelling target that requires definition

drilling”.

By comparison, at Homestake, the surface expression of the 9 Ledge upper tail is a 30m x 15m

area in a road cut, within which the majority of rock samples assay only 100's ppb Au to 1 g/t

Au, with one higher -grade sample assaying 4.5 g/t Au. However, visible alteration,

characterized by quartz veins with moderately to well -developed hydrothermal chlorite selvages

and minor sulfide minerals, is locally well developed at the 9 Ledge upper tail position.

Consistent ore grade mineralization (~8 g/t Au over 5-10m widths) in the 9 Ledge does not begin

to develop until 1200m down plunge (8 00m vertical depth) on the 9 Ledge, and the highest Au

grades and widths in the 9 Ledge Centroid do not occur until 1500m down plunge (1000m

vertical depth. By comparison, the Au grades and widths encountered in the only very

shallow drilling (to 330m down plunge) to date by the Mineral Mountain on the Standby

system, along with the >30m widths of intense quartz flooding – hydrothermal chlorite

alteration – remobilized pyrrhotite – arsenopyrite alteration, are highly encouraging at

Standby.

regulatory requirements set out in National Instrument 43 -101 and reviewed and approved by

Nelson W. Baker, P.Eng. the President and CEO of Mineral Mounta in Resources Ltd. and a

About Mineral Mountain Resources and the Rochford Gold Project

Mineral Mountain Resources Ltd., through its wholly owned subsidiary Mineral Mountain

Resources (SD) Inc., is focused on the exploration of its 100% -owned Rochford Gold Project

situated along the highly prospective Homestake Gold Belt in the Black Hills of South Dakota ,

U.S.A. The Rochford Project covers approximately 7,500 acres and straddles three major trends

of structurally thickened auriferous iron formation that host ledge-type gold mineralization.

Since 2012, the Company , through it’s wholly owned subsidiary Mineral Mountain Resource

(SD) Inc., has spent over $9 million US in gold exploration in the Black Hills of South Dakota,

controls the largest land position in the Rochford greenstone belt and now possesses by far the

largest and most comprehensive database for the district in modern day exploration history ! The

Rochford Project is vastly under -explored and has the potential to host district scale gold

discoveries.

other related services are available an d perform as contracted. Forward -looking information involves
