Brazil Resources Inc. Files Technical Report for its Recently Acquired Whistler Gold-Copper Project, Alaska

Highlights:

• Indicated resource for the Whistler deposit of 79.2 Mt grading 0.51 g/t gold, 1.97 g/t silver, 0.17 % copper or 0.88 g/t gold equivalent (2.25 Moz gold equivalent);
• Inferred resource for the Whistler deposit of 145.8 Mt grading 0.40 g/t gold, 1.75 g/t silver, 0.15 % copper or 0.73 g/t gold equivalent (3.35 Moz gold equivalent); and
• The Whistler project (170 sq km) hosts several nearby targets to the Whistler deposit with excellent potential to increase the existing resource base.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Vancouver, British Columbia - October 26, 2015 - Brazil Resources Inc. (the 'Company' or 'Brazil Resources') (TSX-V: BRI; OTCQX: BRIZF) is pleased to announce that, further to its press release dated September 9, 2015, the Company has filed a National Instrument 43-101 ('NI 43-101') technical report (the 'Technical Report')for its Whistler gold-copper project (the 'Whistler Project' or 'Project') located in South Central Alaska. Brazil Resources acquired the project from Kiska Metals Corporation pursuant to an asset purchase agreement in August 2015.

Resource Estimate

The Technical Report includes the following resource estimate for the Whistler deposit (utilizing a net smelter return cut-off of $7.50/t or approximately 0.3 g/t Au Eq under the base price assumptions detailed in the Technical Report):

Notes:

• Gold equivalent grade calculation for the Whistler Project resource was based on 75% recovery for gold and silver, 85% recovery for copper, US$990/oz gold, US$15.40/oz silver and US$2.91/lb copper.
• Totals may not represent the sum of the parts due to rounding.
• The Mineral Resources have been prepared by Moose Mountain Technical Services in conformity with 'CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves 2014'.
• Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part of the mineral resource will be converted into mineral reserves.

The Technical Report, dated effective August 15, 2015, is titled 'NI 43-101 Resource Estimate for the Whistler Project'. The Technical Report was authored by Robert J. Morris, M.Sc., P.Geo., Susan C. Bird, P.Eng., and Alan Riles, B.Met., M.AIG, who are each qualified persons within the meaning of NI 43-101 and independent of the Company. There are no material differences between the results announced in the Company's September 9, 2015 press release and the results contained in the final Technical Report.

Whistler Project

The Whistler Project is located approximately 150 km northwest of Anchorage, Alaska and is comprised of 304 Alaska State Mineral Claims (170 sq km) in the Yentna Mining District and has a 50-person all season exploration camp, airstrip and assorted mobile equipment. The Whistler Project comprises a gold-copper district in an underexplored area of south-central Alaska. In addition to the Whistler deposit, the Project also includes several additional mineral deposits and prospective areas that Company geologists believe have good potential for expansion, including:

• Whistler Orbit, an extensive area (approx. 25 sq km) of phyllic (quartz-sericite-pyrite) alteration that is peripheral to several mineralized porphyry deposits and targets located directly east of the Whistler deposit;
• Island Mountain gold-copper porphyry complex, which hosts multiple porphyry centers including the Breccia, Cirque, Howell and Super Conductor zones that occur within an area of 9 sq km and located approximately 23 km south of the Whistler deposit;
• Muddy Creek intrusion-related gold target consisting of quartz-sulphide veins that are hosted within intrusive phases of the Estelle Composite Intrusive Suite and on which historic reconnaissance rock-soil geochemistry and geophysics has outlined multiple gold anomalies (Discovery Creek, Phoenix Creek, Arseno Knob and Bonanza zone) over an area of 5.5 sq km and located approximately 18 km southwest of the Whistler deposit; and
• Several gold-copper targets outlined by historic soil geochemistry, geophysics, and mapping.
