MIDAS GOLD PRESENTED WITH 2015 ENVIRONMENTAL EXCELLENCE AWARD BY IDAHO ASSOCIATION OF COMMERCE & INDUSTRY

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - Midas Gold Corp. (TSX:MAX / OTCQX:MDRPF) (“Midas Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has been presented with the 2015 Environmental Excellence Award from the Idaho Association of Commerce & Industry (“IACI”) in recognition of innovative environmental leadership and accomplishment, which have achieved outstanding results in environmental protection and enhancement.

Midas Gold was recognized for investing time, resources and expertise into restoring areas of pre-existing environmental disturbance, improving local water quality, and enhancing fish habitat in the Stibnite-Yellow Pine area of central Idaho, while moving forward with mineral exploration through sustainability initiatives that minimize environmental impact.

“Midas Gold is honoured to receive this award from one of Idaho’s leading business associations,” said Stephen Quin, President & CEO of Midas Gold Corp. “Our focus on the restoration of the Stibnite Gold Project site is part of a long term commitment to environmental improvement and sustainable development, and we look forward to building on these efforts in the future.”

The Stibnite-Yellow Pine mining district has been impacted by nearly 100 years of mining activities conducted by prior operators. Midas Gold hopes to revive this historic mining area through a carefully planned redevelopment program that is based upon clean-up and restoration of the site as well as significant, well-paid employment over an almost 20-year period.

Please see the annual Sustainability Report (available at www.midasgoldidaho.com) for details of Midas Gold’s current restoration activities at the Stibnite Gold Project site and its efforts to develop sustainable forms of energy. Over the past several years, more than 30,000 trees have been planted to reduce sediment runoff and improve water quality, eight acres of historically disturbed lands have been restored, and more than 30 tons of scrap metal left by prior operators have been recycled or removed. Midas Gold has also established a solar power system at Stibnite which has greatly reduced diesel fuel consumption for its camp and on site activities. These achievements were accomplished in parallel with its exploration activities, where 100% of its drill sites have been reclaimed, and which generated significant investment in the project, expenditures in the surrounding communities and local employment.

Midas Gold Corp., through its wholly owned subsidiaries, is focused on the exploration and, if warranted, development of gold-antimony-silver deposits in the Stibnite‐Yellow Pine district of central Idaho that are encompassed by its Stibnite Gold Project.

MIDAS GOLD FINANCINGS COMPLETED & OVER-ALLOTMENT OPTION EXERCISED GROSS PROCEEDS OF C$8.0 MILLION

Not for distribution to United States newswire services or for dissemination in the United States

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - Midas Gold Corp. (TSX:MAX / OTCQX:MDRPF) (“Midas Gold” or the “Company”) today announced that it has completed its previously announced private placement financings, including the exercise of the over-allotment option, for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of C$8.0 million. The financings consisted of: (i) a brokered private placement (the “Brokered Financing”) of a total of 14,380,952 units of the Company (“Units”) at a price of C$0.42 per Unit representing gross proceeds to the Company of C$6.0 million; and (ii) a non-brokered financing (the “Non-Brokered Financing” and, together with the Brokered Financing, the “Financings”) of a total of 4,743,238 Units on the same terms as the Brokered Financing representing gross proceeds to the Company of C$2.0 million.

Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a “Share”) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company (a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of C$0.60 until May 20, 2017.

The Units comprising the Brokered Financing were placed by a syndicate of agents (the “Agents”) led by Haywood Securities Inc. and including National Bank Financial Inc. and Salman Partners Inc. A cash commission equal to 6% of the gross proceeds of the Brokered Financing was paid to the Agents.

In connection with the closing of the Non-Brokered Financing, the Company has paid finder’s fees to an arm’s length party consisting of a cash commission equal to 6% of the gross proceeds of the Non-Brokered Financing received from the sale of Units sold to purchasers introduced to the Company by the finder.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Financings to fund the continued advancement of the Company’s Stibnite Gold Project, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The Shares, Warrants and any Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of the Warrants are subject to a hold period of four months, and may not be traded until September 21, 2015 except as permitted by applicable securities legislation and the rules and policies of the Toronto Stock Exchange.

Certain directors, officers and employees of Midas Gold participated in the Non-Brokered Financing by purchasing an aggregate of 401,571 Units. Accordingly, the Non-Brokered Financing constituted to that extent a “related party transaction” under applicable Canadian securities laws. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Non-Brokered Financing as the details of the Non-Brokered Financing and the participation therein by related parties of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to closing and the Company wished to close on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.
