Erin Abandons Panama Activities

CALGARY, May 5 /CNW/ -- 
CALGARY, May 5 /CNW/ - Erin Ventures Inc. [TSXV: EV] announces that it
 has received information that mineral concessions for the Santa Rosa
 Mine in Panama have been awarded to a third party despite Erin's claim
 to the assets. It is the opinion of Erin's management that there is
 clear evidence of inappropriate actions by certain government
 departments, giving this third party an improper and unfair advantage
 in the concession process (as reported by Erin in a news release dated
 December 15, 2010).


In light of this development, coupled with the recent "anti-mining"
 attitude developing within Panama, management of Erin feels it prudent
 to abandon all activities in Panama until further notice.


On behalf of the Board of Directors,
Blake Fallis, General Manager
