ASTON BAY HOLDINGS SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETES 2015 FIELD PROGRAM AT STORM PROPERTY

Aston Bay Holdings Ltd. has successfully completed the 2015 summer exploration program at the Storm property on Somerset Island, Nunavut.

Crews collected gravity data over four targets during the 11-day field program at Storm. The purpose of this short program was twofold:

1. To confirm that the known copper mineralization at Storm has an identifiable gravity response by collecting data along principal profiles over two of the drill-confirmed zones: 3500N and 4100N;
2. To define potential drill targets for the 2016 field season by conducting gravity surveys over two high-priority exploration targets: SE anomaly and Eastern extension.

"We are very pleased with what was accomplished in a short time frame with a limited budget," said Benjamin J. Cox, president and chief executive officer of Aston Bay. "The program was highly productive, and early indications suggest that gravity surveys will be an effective and important exploration tool at Storm."

In total, 939 primary and 70 QA/QC (quality assurance/quality control) ground gravity readings were collected on the property over the course of the field program. Preliminary results were reviewed in the field on a daily basis and used to guide the remaining program. Final results from the surveys are expected in the next few weeks and will be made available once received.

Gravity readings were recorded along three 100-metre-spaced orientation lines at both the 3500N and 4100N zones. These principal profiles were designed to test the gravity response over drill-confirmed zones of copper mineralization as well as the Central graben, a structural system considered to be important in the process of mineralization at Storm.

Gravity data were also collected over the SE anomaly and Eastern extension target to enhance target definition for the 2016 field season. The SE anomaly is a 4.5-by-two-kilometre conductivity anomaly defined by the 2011 VTEM (versatile time-domain electromagnetic) airborne survey. A pre-existing ground gravity survey conducted in 1999 shows a coincident gravity response over the VTEM anomaly (see news release dated May 28, 2015). The Eastern extension target is located along the Central graben structural system, and is characterized by coincident conductivity and geochemical anomalies.
