Vendetta Mining Corp. Announces a $ 1,500,000 Non-Brokered Private Placement

(via Thenewswire.ca)

Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / September 10, 2015 - Vendetta Mining Corp. (VTT-TSX:V) ("Vendetta" or the "Company") announces that the Company intends to carry out a non-brokered private placement (the "Offering") of up to 15,000,000 units ("Units") of the Company at a price of $0.10 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $1,500,000.

Each Unit will be comprised of one common share and one-half of a share purchase warrant ("Warrant"). Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company at a price of $0.13 per share for a period of three years. All securities issued in connection with the Financing will be subject to a four-month hold period.

The proceeds of the Private Placement will be used to advance the development of the Pegmont project including resource development drilling at the newly discovered Burke Hinge Zone (located near surface) and Zone 5 (open in all directions), metallurgical test work, property payments and for general working capital. On completion of the drilling and metallurgical programs the Company intends to update the NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate.

Over 6,500 m of drilling has now been completed since the February 2014 NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate (see Table 1 below). The following drilling highlights from the Burke Hinge Zone and Zone 5 are not included in the current NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate:

About The Pegmont Lead Zinc Project

The Pegmont lead-zinc-silver deposit is located in North West Queensland Mineral Province, 175 km south-east of Mount Isa, 25 km east of South32's world class Cannington silver-lead-zinc operation and 28 km north of Chinova Resources' Osborne and Kulthor copper-gold operations. It is proximate to infrastructure including roads, rail, and natural gas for power generation.

Pegmont is a stratiform deposit that outcrops with an overall shallow dip to the south east and is hosted in a magnetite rich banded iron formation within high grade metamorphic rocks. The project consists of three granted mining leases and two exploration permits that cover an area of approximately 3,468 ha. Discovered in 1971, a total of 408 bore holes for 44,746 m have been completed on the project prior to 2014. The current NI 43-101 Pegmont Mineral Resource Estimate for Zones 1 to 4 is presented below in Table 1.
