Taranis Advances Exploration Permits and Prepares for Gold

Pilot Plant start-up in June

Lakewood, Colorado, May 4 , 2017 – Taranis Resources Inc. ( “Taranis”) [TSX.V: TRO ] is

pleased to update activity related to its Thor project.

Gold Pilot Plant

Taranis has purchased at 50 KW generator plant that will be used to power the gold pilot plant

that is already erected onsite . A contractor has been engaged who will use a large excavator-

mounted hydraulic hammer capable of breaking up the SIF outcrop for processing through the

plant. The gold pilot plant is fully permitted and operations will begin after June 16, 2017.

Permitting (Ridge Target & Broadview Mine Area)

Taranis has advanced two Multi Year Area Based (“MYAB” ) permits that are now undergoing

internal review by the Ministry of Energy and Mines and First Nations consultation.

The Ridge Target MYAB inc ludes drilling from widespread drill sites seeking to find the

northern continuation of the Thor deposit up to 2 km north of the existing deposit. There are

features indicative of a buried deposit in this area, including lar ge gossans, gold -bearing float,

and volcaniclastic rocks of the Jowett formation. The prospective horizon is buried under rocks

of the Broadview Formation that form a large topographic ridge, and the drill will be moved by

helicopter.

The Broadview MYAB permit is part of the 1G exploration efforts on the property, and involves

continued delineation drilling of the Broadview Mine area. Thirty-one drill sites and further road

building are required to complete definition of a resource in this area.

3D Geological Mapping

Taranis is placing priority on developing a 3D geol ogical map of the Thor property. This

ongoing effort le d to the identification of the Ridge T arget in early 2017 and shows great

promise in identifying other exploration targets on the project that could enhance the size of the

known deposit.
