Inspiration Announces Lease of Property and Private Placement

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - July 23, 2015) - Inspiration Mining Corporation (the "Corporation") (TSX:ISM) would like to announce that, further to its various press releases, the Corporation has successfully completed the process of bringing its Langmuir Property to lease.

The Corporation acquired its Registered Plan and Survey, PLAN 6R-8835 (the "Plan"), under the Land Titles Act from the land registrar office for division of Cochrane. Pursuant to the Plan, the Corporation has acquired a 21 year lease over the various claims located on the Langmuir Property.

The issuance of the Plan, which was a lengthy process, represents a crucial and significant step in the Corporation's proposed plan of obtaining a permit for a bulk sample and the continued development of the Langmuir Property.

The Corporation would also like to announce that it will be undertaking a non-brokered private placement of up to 8,000,000 common shares at an issuance price of $0.05 per share for aggregate proceeds of $400,000. The proceeds from the placement will be used by the Corporation to de-water and the re-open the existing mine and for general working capital. A finder's fee may be paid by the Company in connection with the private placement.

"Even with the current price of nickel at $5.20/lb US, the Corporation is of the opinion that the grades available from underground mining as opposed to open pit mining will allow the Corporation to extract the higher grade ore," commented Randy Miller, the President of the Corporation. "We are pleased and excited that the leasing process has been completed as it will now allow the Corporation to focus on proceeding with the bulk sample."

The TSX has not reviewed and does not accept responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
