VANCOUVER, BC –(Marketwired – June 08, 2016) – Integra Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE: ICG) (OTCQX: ICGQF)

Press Release Highlights:

• Results received from the C4 structure continue to support internal continuity and lateral expansion potential
• Continuity and resource growth potential highlighted by ongoing drilling, both infill and step-out, of the near surface C1 and C2 structures
• A new subparallel and high angle C-Type structure (“C7”), 150 metres (“m”) structurally below C6, confirms potential for significant depth extensions at the Triangle gold deposit
• Results announced today are from 4,400 m of recent drilling; assays are currently pending from an additional 73,140 m (179 drill holes) of diamond drilling at Triangle, the No. 4 Plug and other key exploration targets
• 4 drill rigs are currently active on the Lamaque Gold Project
• 101,900 m drilled at Triangle since previous resource estimate database cut-off (July 30, 2015)
• Company on-track and fully financed to commence underground exploration in June

Integra Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE: ICG) (OTCQX: ICGQF), (“Integra” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce additional assay results from its Fall 2015/Winter 2016 drill program on the Triangle deposit (“Triangle”) situated on the Lamaque South Gold Project (“Lamaque”) in Val-d’Or, Québec. In addition to an extensive surface drill program the Company is in the final stages of preparing for its first ever underground exploration program at Triangle with the initial blasting scheduled to commence later this month.

“Today’s results continue to show both strong mineralization continuity and exciting resource growth potential within the C-type structures at the Triangle deposit. Step out hole TM-15-018 announced today in addition to the other recent drill results have opened up the western portion of the C4 structure. The C4 structure already accounts for approximately 40% of the Triangle deposit’s resource,” commented Company President and CEO, Stephen de Jong. “In addition to this we are continuing to see both the C1 and C2 structures grow which is encouraging as they will make up the first phase of any contemplated mining scenario at Triangle.”

C4 Drilling Continues to Expand Mineralization

Results disclosed today include intercepts within C4, the largest, high-angle structure at Triangle, which continue to demonstrate the potential for growth with an interval grading 33.55 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”) over 3.2 m (15.91g/t Au when cap at 34.3 g/t Au, downhole width) on the western edge of that structure at a depth of 605 m vertical.

As illustrated in the attached vertical longitudinal section of the C4 structure (see link below), additional results are pending from a minimum of 6 drill holes testing the western extension of that structure, 100 to 150 m west from previous drilling. Visual observations of those holes indicate that the structure is still open to the west with varying amounts of mineralization.

Continuity and Resource Growth Potential for the C1 and C2 Structures

The C1 and C2 structures host the majority of the gold mineralization for the upper portion of Triangle. Today’s results are significant as high grade gold mineralization continues to be identified at relatively shallow depths (above 475 m vertical). These results both confirm the continuity of these upper zones as well as show the potential for near-surface lateral resource expansion along strike.

Intercepts disclosed today include the following significant results in both the C1 and C2 structures (downhole widths, intercepts uncapped – refer to table below for capped results):

In the C1 structure:

• 10.43 g/t Au over 3.0 m in hole TM-16-126B
• 8.86 g/t Au over 2.5 m in hole TM-16-126BM02

In C2 structure:

• 7.25 g/t Au over 7.5 m in hole TM-16-126BM02
• 21.63 g/t Au over 5.9 m in hole TM-16-146M03

Significant results are also reported in shallower dipping C-Flat structures between the high angle C2 and C3 structures:

• C2-70 – 17.67 g/t Au over 2.1 m in hole TM-16-086
• C2-80 – 17.29 g/t Au over 3.0 m in hole TM-16-126BM02

As illustrated in the longitudinal sections for C1 and C2 (see link below), results from numerous intercepts in these structures are still pending:

Additional C Structure (C7) Identified at depth

Ongoing interpretation of drilling completed since August 2015 has confirmed the presence of an additional sub-parallel, high angle C-Type shear structure located 150m structurally below the C6 zone. The C7 structure remains open in all directions and presently extends from a depth of 975 m to 1,150 m vertical. Results from additional holes drilled below 1,150 m vertical are pending.

Results from this new zone include:

• 8.14 g/t gold over 4.2 m (TM-15-038, previously reported, see full assay table)
• 6.11 g/t gold over 2.4 m (TM-16-146M03, reported in summary table below)

High-Grade Mineralization identified between C-Type Structures

In addition to the mineralization identified in the primary C and C-Flat structures, high grade gold bearing intercepts continue to be identified between the well-defined C structures, demonstrating the possibility for additional mineralized structures to occur. These new mineralized zones represent additional resource upside which will be fully evaluated once underground access is completed.

Uncapped results include the following (all downhole widths, refer to assay table for capped results):

• 37.96 g/t Au over 0.5 m in hole TM-16-086
• 66.95 g/t Au over 0.6 m in hole TM-16-146M03
• 57.94 g/t Au over 0.5 m in hole TM-16-146M03
• 31.47 g/t Au over 1.5 m in hole TM-16-146M03

Triangle Deposit Summary

Triangle is made up of a series of high-grade, parallel, steeply to moderately dipping mineralized “C” structures structurally spaced at 100 to 150 m, which host the majority of the Triangle deposit’s gold resources. The C1 and C2 structures occur from surface to 300 m and 475 m vertical respectively. The C4, C5, C6 structures occur between 320 m and 875 m vertically, and the newly discovered C7 structure is presently known to extend from at least 975 m to 1,150 m vertically. The lateral and down-dip limits of mineralization for almost all of the Triangle C structures have yet to be identified.

Drilling conducted since August 2015 at Triangle has focused on infill and step-out/extensional drilling within selected areas of the C1, C2, C4, C5 and C6 structures, and on deep testing of the Triangle deposit below 1,000 m vertically. Characteristic geological host units and alteration assemblages associated with gold bearing veins present within the structures were observed in most drill holes to date. Ongoing results continue to demonstrate the validity of the predictive nature of the geological model and associated high grade gold bearing vein structures.

Lamaque Project Exploration Program Summary

A total of 93,592 m in 203 holes was completed at Lamaque in 2015 of which 59,753m in 104 holes was conducted at Triangle. In 2016 a total of 75,900 m in 197 drill holes have thus far been completed at Lamaque South. Drilling is ongoing with 4 drill rigs currently in operation.

The results announced today are from 9 drill holes representing 4,400 m. As of June 1, 2016 drill results are still pending from an additional 179 drill holes at Lamaque representing 73,140 m; for the Triangle deposit alone there are pending results for 150 drill holes representing 57,220 m. Results will continue to be disclosed regularly as they become available.

Project and Company Profile

Integra Gold is a junior gold exploration company advancing projects in Val-d’Or, Québec, one of the top mining jurisdictions in the world. The Company’s primary focus is its high-grade Lamaque South project. In 2014, Integra completed the accretive acquisition of the Sigma Mill and Mine Complex, a fully permitted 2,200 ton per day mill and tailings facility. With major federal and provincial permits in place, existing infrastructure and exploration potential, this acquisition removed major costs and shortened timelines typically associated with mine projects. With a current market capitalization of approximately $300 million, Integra has raised over $100 million since 2013, at successively higher share prices, despite depressed gold prices. In August 2015, Eldorado Gold Corporation completed a strategic investment in Integra, acquiring 15% of the outstanding common shares. Integra was recently named to the TSX Venture top 50 performers in 2015 and the OTCQX Best 50 award for 2015.

Qualified Person

The Lamaque project is under the direct supervision of Hervé Thiboutot, Eng., Senior Vice-President of the Company, and Jacques Simoneau, P. Geo., Exploration Manager of the Company.
