Balmoral Extends Grasset H3 Zone to Depth with Intersection of 42.70 Metres Grading 1.11% Ni, 0.12% Cu, 0.20 g/t Pt And 0.49 g/t Pd

• Down Plunge Extent of Higher Grade Core to H3 Zone Increased by Over 30%; Remains Open to Depth
• Hanging Wall Gold Zone Returns 10.04 g/t Gold over 3.80 Metres
• Updated Website Launched

(Vancouver, September 8, 2015)Balmoral Resources Ltd. ("Balmoral" or the "Company") (TSX: BAR; OTCQX: BALMF) today announced that on-going expansion drilling has successfully extended the vertical depth of the core of the H3 Ni-Cu-PGE Zone by over 30%. Two holes, GR-15-87 and GR-15-90a (see Figure 1 and Figure 2), drilled along the projected plunge of the H3 Zone intersected nickel sulphide mineralization over down hole widths of 118.84 and 86.09 metres respectively. Both holes extend the higher-grade core of the Zone vertically by approximately 100 metres in the areas tested (see Figure 3 and Figure 4).

Results from the two holes were highlighted by an intercept of 42.70 metres grading 1.11% Ni, 0.12% Cu, 0.20 g/t Pt and 0.49 g/t Pd, within a broader 118.84 metre wide sulphide mineralized intercept which returned 0.67% Ni, 0.07% Cu, 0.11 g/t Pt and 0.27 g/t Pd from hole GR-15-87. This is one of the top six intercepts reported to date from the H3 Zone on a grade x thickness basis. Both GR-15-87 and GR-15-90a show mineralized widths roughly equal to, and grades notably stronger than, the two holes located vertically above them (see Figures 3 and 4). This suggests a trend back toward higher nickel, copper, platinum and palladium grades at depth within the core of the larger system.

"Today's results represent a significant expansion of the higher grade core of the H3 Zone and clearly demonstrate that the Zone remains open for further expansion to depth, with the potential added bonus of improving nickel grades" said Darin Wagner, President and CEO of Balmoral. "With these strong results from H3, several additional mineralized intercepts from the nearby H1 Zone and continued confirmation of high-grade gold potential proximal to the Grasset discoveries our team continues to deliver an expanding suite of growth opportunities."

* Consistent with previous releases all intercepts reported are down hole lengths, not true thicknesses. Insufficient modelling has been completed to date to define the orientation of the most recent mineralized intercepts in space; true thicknesses are anticipated to range from 50 and 80% of down-hole lengths.

Infill drilling on the northwestern portion of the H3 Zone returned mineralized intercepts consistent with previous drilling in this area. Results continue to indicate that the mineralized system remains open to depth, and to the northwest, along both Horizons 1 and 3 (H1 and H3). The initially planned infill drilling of the H3 Zone has now been completed. Expansion drilling continues to depth and additional holes will likely be added to infill the recent expanded portions of the H3 Zone. Testing of H1 during the current program continues to show local areas of higher grade nickel mineralization, including 5.67 m grading 0.99% Ni in GR-15-90a, providing potential to include portions of the H1 Zone in the planned initial resource estimate.

Two drills continue to turn on the Grasset Property. Drilling is anticipated to continue through the month of September. One drill is current dedicated to the depth extension of the H3 and H1 Ni-Cu-PGE Zones. The second drill will predominantly focus on exploration targets along the projected trend of the Grasset Ultramafic Complex ("GUC") and elsewhere on the Grasset and adjacent properties. The Company has recently completed staking of 19 additional claims in the Lac Grasset area. The summer/fall 2015 program remains on, or slightly under, budget.

Gold Mineralization

To date three areas of anomalous gold mineralization have been identified proximal to the H3 and H1 nickel discoveries. Two of these occur in strongly deformed volcanic rocks located in the hanging wall to the GUC. These two occurrences, located approximately 300 metre apart, typically exhibit abundant quartz-carbonate veining, carbonate wall rock alteration and limited sulphide mineralization. They appear to have WNW trends and steep dips; crudely parallel to the regional Sunday Lake Deformation Zone in this area. Holes GR-15-88 and GR-15-89 intersected the northern of these two trends with GR-15-89 returning a high grade intercept of 9.33 g/t gold over 3.80 metres. This intercept may correlate with similar high-grade intercepts located 150 metres to the east in the GR-14-50 series of holes. Additional testing appears to be warranted in this area to determine the extent of the high-grade gold mineralization.

* Reported drill intercepts are not true widths. At this time there is insufficient data with respect to the shape of the mineralization to calculate true orientations in space.

The third area of anomalous gold mineralization occurs in the footwall to the GUC, to the northeast of and proximal to a portion of the H1 Zone. Here several holes, including GR-15-90a, have intersected a moderately broad zone of massive to semi-massive, potentially stratabound, semi-massive to massive pyrite mineralization which is consistently associated with anomalous gold mineralization. Deeper testing of the H3 Nickel Zone will provide an opportunity to further evaluate the gold potential of this area.
