Inventus Mining Corp. (TSX VENTURE: IVS) (“Inventus” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on its 2021 exploration programs at its 100%-owned Pardo and Sudbury 2.0 Projects near Sudbury, Ontario.

Recent Exploration Highlights Include:

• Pardo Channel Sampling Results:5.5 m of 10.2 g/t gold, including 1.0 m of 47.9 g/t gold2.0 m of 11.8 g/t gold, including 1.0 m of 22.6 g/t gold2.5 m of 9.4 g/t gold, including 0.5 m of 26.4 g/t gold3.0 m of 6.2 g/t gold, including 1.5 m of 9.1 g/t gold2.0 m of 7.4 g/t gold2.0 m of 7.0 g/t gold

• Six mini-bulk samples from Pardo are currently in the lab for assays
• Discovery of the mineralized host structure at the Rathbun high-grade Ni-Cu-PGE occurrence
• Completion of the Airborne MT survey over the Sudbury 2.0 Project
• 3D IP survey at Cobalt Hill currently underway

Pardo Exploration Program

The first phase of sampling in 2021 at the Pardo project, including channel sampling and a mini-bulk sample trial program, has now been complete. The cost-effective sampling data generated from this program is expected to assist with a maiden resource estimate and de-risk the more extensive 50,000-tonne bulk sampling program planned for the project.

Six mini-bulk samples, weighing approximately 3.4 tonnes each, were obtained from the 007 occurrence. The samples were crushed and representative splits from each were delivered to SGS Laboratories for assay. Following a successful trial, a second phase of mini-bulk sampling is planned. The mini-bulk samples can be deployed across the project on surface exposures of the mineralized conglomerate reef and provide more reliable sampling data with significantly reduce gold grade variability.

In addition to the mini-bulk samples, channel samples were cut from surface exposures of the mineralized conglomerate reef where possible (Figure 1). The channel samples were cut from top to bottom of the reef, emulating a diamond drill hole. A total of 17 channel samples were taken from the Trench 2 location. Assay results from the channels have been received and are shown in Table 1. The Trench 2 samples had an average thickness of 2.4 metres and a weighted average grade of 4.9 g/t gold. Channel lengths are approximately true thickness. The channel sampling data will be used for resource calculation and provide guidance for the future bulk sampling program.

Sudbury 2.0 Exploration Program

Inventus has completed a state-of-the-art property-wide airborne magnetotelluric (MT) survey on the Sudbury 2.0 Project. Final results from the survey are expected in the coming weeks. A 3D induced polarization (IP) survey at Cobalt Hill is currently underway with completion expected in early August. These geophysical programs are expected to provide Inventus with much better exploration targeting both regionally and locally. Follow-up work, including trenching and drilling, is planned later this year.

Rathbun

Inventus is currently conducting a prospecting and mapping program at the high-grade Ni-Cu-PGE Rathbun sulfide occurrence. The sulfide occurrence was mined in the 1890s where a historic shaft is present. Past sampling by Inventus of the shaft area returned assays ranging from 6.3 to 74.4 g/t palladium, 1.0 to 18.4 g/t platinum, 0.8 to 22.8% copper, 0.1 to 0.5% nickel, 0.5 to 13.3 g/t gold, and 1.0 to 13.0 g/t silver.

The recent prospecting work has led to the discovery of a Sudbury-type breccia structure that hosts the sulfide occurrence and extends for at least 700 metres (Figure 2). Historic exploration efforts at Rathbun did not establish that the high-grade sulfide occurrence was a Sudbury-type mineral system. This breakthrough by Inventus has led to the successful identification of this complex geological system and its continuity along strike. Prospecting of the Sudbury-type breccia structure is currently ongoing, and the first assay results are expected in August.
