Eastmain and ESJV Partners begin 8,000 Metre Drilling Program at Eleonore South, James Bay Region, Quebec

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 08/09/17 -- Eastmain Resources Inc. ("Eastmain" or the "Company") (TSX: ER)(OTCQX: EANRF) is pleased to announce that Phase 1 of the 8,000 m, two-phase, diamond drilling program has begun at the Eleonore South JV Property. The drilling is part of a comprehensive $3.9 million program, following up on the 2016/2017 drill program (see press release dated July 20, 2017) and guided by additional surface geological and geophysical exploration underway on the Property. The Property is adjacent to Goldcorp's Eleonore Gold Mine property in James Bay, Quebec (FIGURES 1-2).

Phase 1 is comprised of 20 holes (4,400 m) to be undertaken from early August to October. Phase 1 targets include:

1.  Follow-up drilling to assess the grade and extension of the significant
    drilling results intersected in the tonalite intrusion, including 4.9
    g/t Au over 45.0 m (Hole ES17-64) and 0.65 g/t Au over 144.0 m (Hole
    ES17-60) and to extend drilled geological sections southwards to the
    tonalite contact with metasediments. Nine (9) holes, totalling 2,250 m,
    are planned for this part of the program.


2.  Continued drill testing of the NE-SW striking, 4 km long by 500 m wide
    gold-bearing corridor outlined on the Property. This corridor
    corresponds to the extension of the known hydrothermally altered
    tonalite intrusion successfully tested in the 2016-2017 drill program
    and its contact with metasediments. An area located south of the JT
    Prospect, marked by the changing direction of the intrusion contact, is
    one of the priority targets to be tested. Five (5) holes totalling 1,250
    m are planned for this part of the program.


3.  An additional 900 m (6 holes) will be allocated to drill test new
    targets developed from surface exploration (see press release dated July
    20, 2017) which is now underway and will continue during the remainder
    of the season.

Phase 2, comprised of 3,600 m, will begin in January following a full assessment of the Phase 1 results.
