TORONTO, Ontario (August 15, 2017) – Pelangio Exploration Inc. (PX:TSX-V; OTC PINK:PGXPF) (“Pelangio”

or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it is extending the time to complete additional tranches of its non-

Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one Common Share purchase

31, 2017, the Company shall be entitled to accelerate the expiry time of the Warrants to a date that is at least thirty

days from the date that written notice of such acceleration is provided to the holders of the Warrants by way of news

release, with the new expiry time specified in such notice.

Any and all additional closings of this Private Placement will take place no later than September 14, 2017.

The Company intends to use the total proceeds from the Private Placement to begin the planned $2,000,000 multi -
