CORRECTION FROM SOURCE: Tigray Intersects 28.2 Metres at 8.50 Grams per Tonne Gold at Mato Bula, Adyabo Project, Northern Eth...

The following news release replaces the one disseminated at 6:00 AM ET, April
7th, 2014. Correction to drill zone interpretation. Interpretation of Upper Lode
in WMD012 was incorrect. This mineralized zone is interpreted to be the Main
Lode, which is now reflected in the amended and restated news release below. 


Tigray Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:TIG) ("Tigray" or the "Company") is pleased
to announce diamond drill results from Phase 2 drilling at the Mato Bula
discovery at Adyabo (refer to Tigray's news release dated July 16, 2013 for
Phase 1 drill results). Six additional holes (WMD007 to 012) have been
completed, totalling 1,117 metres. Drilling on 80 metre sections targeted
extensions to mineralization defined during the Phase 1 diamond drilling
campaign (WMD002 to 006). This drilling has extended mineralization to depth
over 150 vertical metres below surface, and to 80 metres extensions at both the
northern and southern extents of existing drill intersections. Eleven diamond
drill holes have now tested the system over a 640 metre strike. 


Highlights include;



--  Section 19880N - WMD007 drilled 100 vertical metres down dip of
    mineralization intersected in WMD006 (12.28 metres grading 12.25 grams
    per tonne gold and 0.30% copper - refer to Tigray's news release dated
    July 16, 2013 ) at Silica Hill, and intersected 28.20 metres at 8.50
    grams per tonne gold and 0.24 percent copper including 17.55 metres at
    13.18 grams per tonne gold and 0.27 percent copper, from 179.75 metres
    drill depth. 
    
--  Section 19960N - WMD009 drilled 80 metres grid north of WMD006 and 007,
    and intersected 14.87 metres at 4.49 grams per tonne gold and 0.04
    percent copper including 7.90 metres at 7.95 grams per tonne gold and
    0.05 percent copper, from 164.20 metres drill depth. 
    
--  Section 19400N - WMD012 drilled the depth extension to previous
    mineralization at Mato Bula South (WMD004), and intersected 12.98 metres
    at 4.40 grams per tonne gold and 0.87 percent copper from 105.62 metres
    drill depth. 
    
--  Section 19320N - WMD011 drilled 80 metres south of previous drilling at
    Mato Bula South (WMD004), and intersected 13.98 metres at 2.28 grams per
    tonne gold and 0.74 percent copper including 5.43 metres at 4.88 grams
    per tonne gold and 0.82 percent copper, from 126.25 metres drill depth. 
    



At Silica Hill, Upper Lode mineralization and alteration is now defined to 150
metres vertical depth below surface, remains open at depth, and has been defined
on two sections 80 metres apart. The tenor (gram-metres) of Upper Lode
mineralization and intensity and volume of alteration increases to depth on both
sections. Step out drilling, initially along strike to both the north and south
at Silica Hill, is required to test the near surface potential of this
discovery. 


At Mato Bula South, Phase 2 drilling has extended the mineralization at depth
and 80 metres south of previous drilling. 


Both Silica Hill and Mato Bula South are part of the Mato Bula Trend, a
mineralized corridor now defined over 8 kilometres in strike length. Gold-copper
mineralization is interpreted to be part of a porphyry style Cu-Au system
containing porphyry-style mineralization, high-grade Au-Cu quartz veins and
possible replacement styles of mineralization. 


Other significant targets previously identified along strike include: 



--  Mato Bula North approximately 1 kilometre northeast of Mato Bula where a
    one hole test into the interpreted carapace of a porphyry intrusion
    intersected 17.35 metres grading 1.65% copper and 0.40 grams per tonne
    gold from 53.80 metres drill depth (WMD001 - hole abandoned before full
    test of drill target) (refer to Tigray's news release dated July 16,
    2013); and 
    
--  Da Tambuk approximately 4 kilometres northeast of Mato Bula where a four
    hole test yielded best results of 12.00 metres at 17.34 grams per tonne
    gold and 0.32 percent copper from 52.75 metres drill depth (refer to
    Tigray's news release dated March 11, 2014. 
    



Andrew Lee Smith, President and CEO of Tigray stated, "Our continued success in
identifying new discoveries and robust drill intersections is a testament to the
potential for significant discovery that this region of Ethiopia possesses."

Quality Control 

The planning, execution and monitoring of Tigray's quality control programs at
the Harvest project are under the supervision of Jeff Heidema, P.Geo., Tigray's
Vice President Exploration. Mr. Heidema is a Qualified Person as defined by
National Instrument 43-101. Diamond drill core samples and trench samples have
undergone preliminary preparation at the Acme Laboratories facility in Ankara,
Turkey, and are crushed to 80% passing 10 mesh, and pulverized to 85% passing
200 mesh (PRP70-1KG package). Analyses are conducted at Acme Laboratories in
Vancouver, Canada, utilizing Aqua Regia digestion and ICP-ES for base metal and
silver analyses. Gold analyses are conducted via Fire Assay Fusion with AA
finish, and gravimetric analyses are completed for over-limit samples. Blanks
and certified reference standards are inserted into the sample stream to monitor
laboratory performance. For core, duplicate samples are inserted into the sample
stream to both monitor laboratory performance and also characterize potential
mineralization.


Qualified Person 

Mr. Heidema has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information
contained in this news release.
