News: Erin Ventures Piskanja Boron Property Progress Report ERIN VENTURES INC. (“Erin”)
NEWS RELEASE - For Immediate Distribution
Erin Ventures Piskanja Boron Property Progress Report
March 31, 2020
Erin Ventures Inc. [TSXV: EV] reports that during the coronavirus outbreak, its Serbian-based technical staff continue their efforts towards the generation of documentation required within the Elaborate of Reserves (the first step in the exploitation license process), as previously reported.
In addition, Erin’s technical staff is preparing the documentation required for the filing of Erin’s annual government progress report, which is due for submission on the 20th of September (required to extend the Piskanja Boron Project license).
Serbia is currently under a nationwide state of emergency that has been introduced in an effort to attempt to mitigate the coronavirus outbreak. Towards this end, Serbia has implemented measures that include voluntary isolation for all citizens, except when seeking essential services. As a result, Erin’s staff is currently unable to conduct any field work until such time as the emergency measures have been lifted by the government. While a small number of days’ worth of additional field work is required for the completion of the aforementioned license documentation, Erin does not anticipate any material delay from its original timelines regarding the completion of the 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).
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

Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated 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 release 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.
