TIGER INTERNATIONAL RESOURCES, INC. (TGR.V)  NEWS RELEASE - JULY 6th, 2015

TSX-V: TGR
US OTC: TGILF

POSITIVE TRENCHING RESULTS FROM 
ITOGON GOLD PROJECT, PHILIPPINES

TIGER INTERNATIONAL RESOURCES, INC. (TGR.V) is pleased to provide the following update on activities at the Itogon gol
--->d project, Philippines. 

The Itogon project is 100% held by Tiger International's Philippine subsidiary Cordillera Tiger Gold Resources, Inc. (
--->"Cordillera Tiger") under an exploration permit granted by the Philippine government.  

ECR Minerals plc ("ECR") of London, United Kingdom has the right to earn a 50% interest in the Itogon project and is c
--->urrently the operator of the project, through Cordillera Tiger.  The text below is excerpted from a news release by EC
--->R made July 6th, 2015.  A copy of the full ECR news release may be obtained from www.ecrminerals.com

- Excerpt begins -

The trenching was completed during May and June 2015 and comprised 13 trenches totalling 430.6m.  Mineralised interval
--->s from the trenching are presented in Table 1 below.  

In addition, 12 test pits were excavated in areas too steep or otherwise inaccessible for trenching.  Further assay re
--->sults in respect of various trenches and all test pits are pending. 

HIGHLIGHTS 

* Mineralised intervals from trenching (apparent width) include:

60m at 2.43 g/t gold in TR09 (includes interval of 42m at 2.54 g/t gold announced 18 June 2015)
28.6m at 3.61 g/t gold in TR09 (separate and additional to the interval above)
18m at 1.71 g/t gold in TR05
59m at 1.32 g/t gold in TR05
10m at 1.39 g/t gold in TR02

* Very high grades encountered in TR09 including:

1m at 16.74 g/t gold from 10m
1m at 42.29 g/t gold from 28m
1m at 79.67 g/t gold from 84m

Stephen Clayson, Chief Executive Officer of ECR, commented:

"These encouraging results provide further positive indications as to the potential of the supergene enriched oxide go
--->ld blanket which occurs from surface in the main prospect area at Itogon, and we look forward to receiving and reporti
--->ng the remainder of the assay results from the trenching and test pitting programme.  

Work at the project during July 2015 is expected to focus on formulating a cohesive geological model for the purposes 
--->of the planned resource estimate and accompanying NI43-101 technical report.  The Directors anticipate that this repor
--->t will be completed during September 2015.

This work will include efforts to better understand the controls on the very high grade mineralisation encountered in 
--->TR09 and in earlier phases of sampling, as well as in the reverse circulation drilling carried out in 2014."

NB: 
Mineralised intervals were calculated as weighted averages using a cut-off grade of 0.30 g/t gold and a maximum of 1m 
--->internal dilution.  As a result certain reported intervals contain discrete higher grade intervals that are separated 
--->by lower grade mineralisation.  In these cases the grade of each single sample which exceeded 1.00 g/t gold has been r
--->eported separately.  No top cut has been applied in calculating mineralised intervals.  All widths given in this annou
--->ncement are apparent width.

QA/QC

A secure chain of custody was maintained in the transport and storage of all samples, which were shipped to and analys
--->ed by Intertek Testing Services Philippines, Inc. ("Intertek"), an internationally accredited independent analytical l
--->aboratory in Metro Manila.  Sampling was carried out under geological supervision.  Upon arrival at Intertek samples w
--->ere sorted, dried (if necessary), crushed, split and pulverised.  The method of analysis for gold was fire assay (50g 
--->charge) with AAS finish.

QA/QC measures including the use of certified standards were implemented by ECR and separately by Intertek in relation
---> to the analysis of the samples.  The assay data reported is considered acceptable in the context of these measures.  
--->Assay values have been expressed in this news release as g/t gold but are received from Intertek expressed as ppm gold
--->.  For the purposes hereof ppm gold and g/t can be considered equivalent.
