With these additions to White Tiger's management and board, the Company intends to increase its focus on the continued development of its Marshall Lake property, which is an advanced exploration stage copper, silver and gold project located 120 km north of Geraldton, Ontario. In connection with the above appointments, Douglas Mason (former Chief Executive Officer and director), Ronald Coombes (former President and director), Sead Hamzagic (former Chief Financial officer and director) and Bruce Morley and Andrzej Kowalski (each a former director) have voluntarily resigned from these positions with the Company. To assist the Company following these changes in management, Ronald Coombes has agreed to provide consulting services to the new management team.

"Since 2010, we, as previous management, have accomplished a great deal as we successfully explored, developed, expanded and strategically enhanced the Company's Marshall Lake property project. At this stage, we recognize that the Marshall Lake property project will benefit from the future contributions of the new management team, that are expected to bring their mining expertise and capital raising abilities to the project which we believe will be beneficial for future shareholder value," said Douglas L. Mason, former Chief Executive Officer of White Tiger.

Mr. Yurkowski stated, "I would like to thank the previous management and directors of White Tiger for their significant contributions to the Company over a number of years. The reconstitution of the Company's board and management earlier today is an important milestone in the continued development of the Company's Marshall Lake property project and will place the Company in a better position to maximize shareholder value." White Tiger has the option to earn a 50% interest in the Marshall Lake property project from Rainy Mountain Royalty Corp. ("Rainy Mountain") (TSX VENTURE:RMO) and Marshall Lake Mining PLC ("MLM") by spending $4 million in exploration expenditures over 5 years and issuing 2 million shares over 4 years to Rainy Mountain. As well, White Tiger has the additional option to increase its interest to 75% by incurring such additional expenditures as are necessary to take the project to bankable feasibility stage. As at April 30, 2014 (the Company's most recent financial statement reporting date), White Tiger has earned a 25% joint venture interest in the Marshall Lake property project.
