NEWS RELEASE
Erin Ventures’ Boron Property Exploration Update
May 3, 2018
Erin Ventures Inc. [TSXV: EV] is pleased to announce that drilling is proceeding on schedule on its
100% owned Piskanja boron project in Serbia . The completion of this work p rogram will continue to
advance the fundamentals of the Piskanja project towards feasibility , as well as ensure that Erin is
compliant with its obligations required to keep its exploration license in good standing and extend it into
2020.
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”.
To date, 5 vertical HQ-sized diamond drill holes have been completed with a 6th hole nearing the midway
point of its targeted depth , for a combined total of 1,754.6 meters . The total planned work for this
program is 10 drill holes, totaling approximately 3,050 metres with chemical analysis, and other ancillary
works. The program is currently on pace to be completed by May 15th.
Visually, all five of the completed holes indicate the presence of massive borate mineralization in fiel d
tests, that confirm the continuity of several known mineral zones, and correlate well with results from
previously drilled neighbouring holes (on a 100x100 m, or 50x50 m grid).
Hole 148 intersected 5 known mineral beds, and returned massive borates over an aggregate of 33.0m,
including one bed of 13.3m and one of 9.5m.
Hole 149 intersected 4 known and 1 new mineral beds, and returned massive borates over an aggregate of
21.3m, including one bed of 13.3m.
Hole 150 intersected 5 known mineral beds, and returned massive borates over an aggregate of 28.8m,
including one bed of 12.9m and one bed of 7.4m.
Hole 151 intersected 4 known mineral beds, and returned massive borates over an aggregate of 27.7m,
including one bed of 12.8m and one of 6.4m.
Hole 152 intersected 5 known and 1 new mineral beds, and returned massive borates over an aggregate of
33.3m, including one bed of 9.8m and one bed of 8.9m.
Samples from all of these intersections will be sent out for chemical analysis shortly, with the results to be
reported as received.

Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrate d economic viability. "Inferred Resources"
have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and economic and legal feasibility. Investors are cautioned
not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource reported in this news releas e will ever be upgraded
to a higher category or to reserves. U.S. persons are advised that while mineral resources are recognized under
Canadian regulations, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize them. U.S. persons are also
cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource is economically or legally mineable.
