NEWS RELEASE

Erin Ventures Announces Boron Project Summer Exploration Program

July 20, 2018

Erin Ventures Inc. [TSXV: EV] announces its planned 2018 summer work program on its 100% owned

Piskanja boron project in Serbia.

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”.

As previously anno unced on May 23 2018, Erin completed its spring work program consisting of 10

diamond drill holes (3,084 meters) on time and on budget, which was required in order to keep the

Piskanja exploration license in good standing . Erin confirms that it has submitt ed the requisite reports to

the Serbian Ministry of Mining and Energy in order to obtain an extension to the Piskanja exploration

license, which it expects imminently.

While Erin awaits formal confirmation of its license extension, Serbian mining law prohibits the

continuation of any exploration activity on the licensed area. As a result, Erin’s summer work program is

limited to “desktop activities ” until such time as the license extension approvals are formalized. These

desktop studies will include: a n environmental baseline study at Piskanja which will be prepared on

Erin’s behalf by the Mining Institute of Belgrade ; Phase 2 of an ongoing

mineralogy/petrology/sedimentology study being conducted by a senior professor from the Faculty of

Mining, University of Belgrade; and, geotech sampling and testing which will be conducted under the

supervision of SRK Consulting (UK) Limited . All of the se studies are required components of a

feasibility study and the mine licencing process as Erin advances Piskanja towards a going concern

operation.

This work program is designed to ensure that the project continues to comply with the Canadian Institute

of Mining "Best Practice Guidelines", the Republic of Serbia Ministry of Mining and Energy mine

development and licensing regulations, as well as with recommendations made by Erin’s geological

consulting firm - SRK Exploration Services Ltd from Cardiff, Wales.

On behalf of the Board of Directors,

Blake Fallis, General Manager
