TORONTO, Ontario (July 28, 2015) - Pelangio Exploration Inc. (PX:TSX-V; PGXPF:OTC) (“Pelangio” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has closed the final tranche of its previously announced private placement of 2,973,000 units of the Company at a price of $0.03 per unit for gross proceeds of $89,190 (the “Final Tranche”).  In the Final Tranche, 1,630,000 of the units for gross proceeds of $48,900 are being issued to existing shareholders participating through the existing securityholders prospectus exemption available under OSC Rule 45-501 - Ontario Prospectus and Registration Exemptions and equivalent provisions of other applicable securities laws. Both tranches of the previously announced private placement total 21,600,233 units for gross proceeds of $648,007.

Each Unit sold pursuant to the Final Tranche is composed of one common share (a “Common Share”) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole purchase warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at a price of $0.05 prior to January 28, 2017, subject to acceleration and adjustment in certain cases.  In the event that the Common Shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) at a volume weighted-average price of $0.075 or more for a period of at least 10 consecutive trading days subsequent to November 29, 2015, the Company shall be entitled to accelerate the exercise period to a period ending at least 30 days from the date notice of such acceleration is provided to the holders of Warrants.

The Company expects to use the proceeds of the First and Final Tranches as described in our news release dated June 25, 2015, with additional proceeds above the minimum amount of $400,000 to be used for continued exploration at our Ghana properties, including drilling up to 10,000 metres of predominantly air core and selected reverse circulation, and for general working capital purposes.  Although the Company intends to use the proceeds of the private placement as described above, the actual allocation of net proceeds may vary from the uses set forth above, depending on future operations or unforeseen events or opportunities, in the discretion of management and the board of directors of the Company.

The Company will pay a finder’s fee of $262.50 to certain introducing parties in respect of a portion of the proceeds of the Final Tranche, subject to compliance with applicable securities legislation and TSX Venture Exchange policies.  The private placement including the Final Tranche is subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including that of the TSX Venture Exchange.  The securities issued pursuant to the Final Tranche will be subject to a four month hold period in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws, expiring November 29, 2015.  Certain directors and/or officers of the Company are participating in the Final Tranche for a total of 510,000 units.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdictions in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.  Any offering made will be pursuant to available prospectus exemptions and restricted to persons to whom the securities may be sold in accordance with the laws of such jurisdictions and by persons permitted to sell the securities in accordance with the laws of such jurisdictions.
