VANCOUVER, Canada �- Viscount Mining Corp. (TSX-V: VML) (OTCQB: VLMGF) (�Viscount� or �the Company�), is pleased to announce assay results of 12 reverse-circulation (RC) holes from the 2015 Phase 1 drilling program at its flagship Cherry Creek Nevada Property (the "Property"), which is currently being managed and funded by Summit Mining Exploration Inc. (�Summit�), a wholly-owned US subsidiary of Sumitomo Corporation, under the first year of an Exploration�Earn In Agreement.  The drilling was designed to test rock chip and soil silver and base metal anomalies, fault-shear-breccia structures and subsurface alteration zones. 

Twelve RC drill holes were completed in the historic silver mining area encompassing the former Ticup, Doctor�s Cut and Jacob�s Cut mines. Hole depths ranged from 79.3m (260 ft) to 329.3m (1080 ft), with a total of 2224.1m (7297 ft) completed. A total of 1551 samples were submitted to ALS Global for assay and multi-element analysis. Samples consisted of 1394 unique drill cutting intervals each representing a minimum of 1.5m (4 ft 11 in) and 157 reference samples. Analytical results from the reference material, comprising 1 blank (landscape marble) and 3 commercial silver standards, did not indicate any QA/QC issues in the laboratory sample preparation or analyses.

Moderate to high grade silver mineralization was intercepted in many of the holes. Notable drill intercepts and silver assays results include:
�    Hole CC001: 9.1 m at 52.6 g/t Ag, maximum silver assay value of 99.4 g/t
�    Hole CC002: 27.5 m at 52.0 g/t Ag, maximum silver assay value of 167 g/t
�    Hole CC006: 12.2 m at 117.6 g/t Ag, maximum silver assay value of 506 g/t
�    Hole CC008: 100.5 m at 7.4 g/t Ag, maximum silver assay value of 64 g/t
�    Hole CC010: 15.2 m at 54.2 g/t Ag, maximum silver assay value of 133 g/t
�    Hole CC011: 30.5 m at 50.0 g/t Ag, maximum silver assay value of 247 g/t

Kaare Foy, Viscount Chairman stated: "At this early stage we are very encouraged with our maiden drill program results, which achieved our targeting objective of intercepting large intervals of silver mineralization. The significance is that this was the first time in over 100 years that modern exploration techniques have been used at Cherry Creek."

All of the results given in this news release were taken directly from the Rangefront Geological drill report prepared for Summit Mining Exploration Inc. (�Summit�) . All of the assaying was done by an ISO certified analytical company. Rangefront Geological and Summit geologists do all their work using the best industrial practices.

Forward-Looking Statements
 
This news release contains certain statements that may be deemed "forward-looking" statements. Forward looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and are generally, but not always, identified by the words "expects", "plans", "anticipates", "believes", "intends", "estimates", "projects", "potential" and similar expressions, or that events or conditions "will", "would", "may", "could" or "should" occur. Although Viscount Mining Corp. believes the expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results may differ materially from those in forward looking statements. Forward looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of Viscount Mining Corp. management on the date the statements are made. Except as required by law, Viscount Mining Corp. undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements in the event that management's beliefs, estimates or opinions, or other factors, should change.
 
Cautionary Note for U.S. Investors Regarding Reserve and Resource Estimates
 
All resource estimates reported by the Company were calculated in accordance with the Canadian National Instrument 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Classification system. These standards differ significantly from the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for descriptions of mineral properties in SEC Industry Guide 7 under Regulation S-K of the U. S. Securities Act of 1933. In particular, under U. S. standards, mineral resources may not be classified as a "reserve" unless the determination has been made that mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. Accordingly, information in this press release containing descriptions of the Company's mineral properties may not be comparable to similar information made public by US public reporting companies.
