Erin Ventures to Continue Field Operations

VICTORIA, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 11, 2020 / Erin Ventures Inc. (TSXV:EV) reports that it is preparing to re-deploy its Serbian-based technical staff to its Piskanja boron property to complete the balance of the field work required as part of the "Elaborate of Reserves" documentation (the first step in the exploitation license process), in light of the decision by the Serbian government to cancel the nationwide lockdown which was introduced in an attempt to mitigate the coronavirus outbreak. Erin is ensuring that its staff has adequate personal protective gear and adheres to social distancing guidelines when returning to field work.

Erin does not anticipate any material delay from its original timelines regarding the completion of the field work and the requisite documentation.

Piskanja is Erin's wholly owned, high-grade boron deposit with an indicated mineral resource of 7.8 million tonnes (averaging 31 per cent B2O3), and an inferred resource of 3.4 million tonnes (averaging 28.6 per cent B2O3), calculated in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves (CIM Standards).

During the lockdown, Erin's technical staff continued to work remotely, preparing certain documentation which is required as part of the "Elaborate of Reserves" process, in addition to documentation required for the filing of Erin's annual government progress report, due for submission on the 20^th of September (required to extend the Piskanja Boron Project license).

Erin is developing the Piskanja Project in a manner which ensures its continued compliance with Serbian mine licensing and mine development regulations, as well as standards expected by potential strategic partners and investors.

On behalf of the Board of Directors,

Blake Fallis, General Manager
