George Town, July 11, 2016 - Endeavour Mining Corporation (TSX:EDV)(OTCQX:EDVMF)
announces with regret that a fatal accident has occurred at its Tabakoto Mine in
Mali.
An employee fell into a slot raise while working in the underground mine at

"We are deeply saddened by this tragic loss and our sympathies and thoughts at
this time are with the individual's family, friends and colleagues," said
Sébastien de Montessus, CEO of Endeavour. "This incident is a terrible reminder
why safety is our top priority, every day and every shift. We will thoroughly
investigate this incident so we can work to prevent such a tragedy from re-
occurring."
About Endeavour Mining Corporation
Endeavour Mining is a TSX-listed intermediate gold producer, focused on
developing a portfolio of high quality mines in the prolific West-African
region, where it has established a solid operational and construction track
record.
Endeavour is ideally positioned as the major pure West-African multi-operation
gold mining company, operating 5 mines in Côte d'Ivoire (Agbaou and Ity),
Burkina Faso (Karma), Mali (Tabakoto), and Ghana (Nzema). In 2016, it expects to
produce between 535koz and 560koz at an AISC of US$870 to US$920/oz, excluding
Karma which is in the commissioning stage. Endeavour is currently building its
Houndé project in Burkina Faso, which is expected to commence production in Q4-
2017 and to become its flagship low-cost mine with an average annual production
of 190koz at an AISC of US$709/oz over an initial 10-year mine life based on
reserves. The development of the Houndé project is expected to lift Endeavour's
group production +900kozpa and decrease its average AISC to circa $800/oz by
2018, while exploration aims to extend all mine lives to +10 years.
