HUNT MINING ANNOUNCES EXPLORATION RESULTS AT MARTHA PROJECT
Drill Intercept of 15,471 g/t Ag and 28.6 g/t Au over 4 meters
Liberty Lake, Washington, February 9, 2017 – Hunt Mining Corp. (the “Corporation” or “Hunt”)
(TSX VENTURE: “HMX”) is pleased to announce drill res ults from exploration activities at the Martha
Project located in the Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. Hunt has an ongoing exploration program designed

in January 2017.
Hunt continued drilling along the trend of the Martha vein im mediately to the west of existing Martha
Mine workings utilizing a surface blasthole drill. A tota l of 16 drill holes were drilling to a maximum
depth of 25 meters downhole length. Samples were collected in 1 meter intervals and were analyzed at the
Martha Project on-site laboratory. Of the 16 holes drilled, 7 intercepted mineralization of more than 1,000
g/t Ag with one interval grading 15,471 g/t Ag and 28.6 g/t Au over 4 meters. Highlights of this drill
program are as follows:
