Bold Ventures Mobilizes Drill to Amber Zone Gold Showing at the Lac Surprise Property, Chapais-Chibougamau Mining District

Toronto, Ontario May 3, 2016 - Bold Ventures Inc. (BOL:TSX.V) (the "Company" or "Bold") and Northern Superior Resources Inc. (SUP: TSX.V) ("Northern Superior") are pleased to announce that a diamond drill has been mobilized to the first hole location at the Lac Surprise Property, Amber Grid area and has commenced drilling.

The Amber and Black Phoenix Showings were discovered as a result of a prospecting and trench sampling program operated by Bold in 2014/2015. Additionally, the historically anomalous Fox gold occurrence was expanded and upgraded to the Fox and Fox North gold showings. Personnel of option to joint venture partner Northern Superior Resources Inc. participated in those programs and continue to provide input to the technical programs. A summary of the property wide prospecting and trench sampling program at all of these showings can be found on the Bold and Northern Superior websites by going to www.boldventuresinc.com or www.nsuperior.com.

In the spring of 2015 the Company chose to explore in detail, the newly discovered Amber Zone showing. A cut grid was established, and Magnetic and Induced Polarization (I.P.) geophysical surveys and soil sampling were carried out to further understand the potential for gold mineralization. The I.P. survey outlined three zones of anomalous "I.P. Effect" that trend east south-east and have been identified as the Amber South, Central and North trends. These three trends are all coincident with anomalous gold values in grab, trench and soil samples.

The goal of the approximately 1,500 m diamond drilling program is to test the Amber Zone area showings within the I.P. trends that are interpreted to have the highest potential to host gold mineralization. The Amber Zone grid area has yielded numerous anomalous gold samples. As previously announced in Bold news release dated February 17, 2015, the highest-grade samples from within the Amber Zone grid include:

Amber Showing: 28.6 g/t Au (grab sample) and 10 g/t Au over 1.0 m, including 26.1g/t Au over 0.5 m (channel sample).

Till-39 Showing: 2.89 g/t Au over 1.0 m (channel sample).

Till-68 Showing: 2.44 g/t Au over 0.85 m (channel sample).
