Vancouver, British Columbia- May 10, 2017 - GoldMining Inc. ("GoldMining" or the "Company") (TSX-V: GOLD; OTCQX: GLDLF) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement (the "Agreement") to acquire 100% of the Yellowknife Gold Project ("YGP" or the "Project") and nearby Big Sky Property ("Big Sky"), both located in the Northwest Territories, Canada and indirectly owned by Tyhee N.W.T. Corp. ("Tyhee"), a subsidiary of Tyhee Gold Corp.

GoldMining entered into the Agreement with a receiver appointed in respect of the assets and undertaking of Tyhee under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act. RMB Australia Holdings Limited ("RMB"), Tyhee's largest secured creditor, initiated the receivership and has committed to the transaction. Completion of the transaction is subject to, among other things, customary conditions, including receipt of requisite court and TSX Venture Exchange approvals.

The YGP has been the subject of substantial drilling, underground development and historic gold production. Big Sky represents an earlier stage exploration property package located south of the YGP and only 17 km north of the city of Yellowknife.

The Agreement

Pursuant to the Agreement, GoldMining will acquire the YGP, Big Sky and certain related assets, including an exploration camp and equipment. Total consideration payable by GoldMining under the transaction consists of 4,000,000 common shares of GoldMining (the "Shares"), which will be subject to customary escrow provisions and released as follows:

• 1,574,000 Shares on the four-month anniversary of closing;
• 1,180,000 Shares on the six-month anniversary of closing; and
• the balance on the eight-month anniversary of closing.

A break fee is payable by RMB to GoldMining in the event that the transaction does not complete under certain circumstances.

The YGP is comprised of five deposits — Nicholas, Ormsby, Bruce, Goodwin and Clan Lake — located 50 to 90 km north of the city of Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories.
