NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISSEMINATION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES

TOLIMA GOLD INC. ("Tolima") (TSX VENTURE:TOM) announces that it has further restructured the terms of its divestiture of certain mining concessions and other assets in Colombia (the "Properties") to Wolverine Minerals Corp. ("Wolverine").

As announced in December 2013, Tolima had previously entered into a share purchase agreement dated December 4, 2013 (the "Original Agreement") through its subsidiaries Remedios Gold Holdings S.A. ("Remedios Gold"), Remedios Gold S.A.S. ("Remedios SAS"), Herbo Assets S.A. ("Herbo") and Tolima Gold (Barbados) Corp. (collectively, the "Sellers") whereby Wolverine had agreed to acquire up to an 80% interest in Remedios Gold from Herbo. In connection with the Original Agreement, Wolverine made a loan of $700,000 (the "Loan") to Herbo, which was secured against 51% of the shares of Remedios Gold. The Sellers subsequently entered into a restated share purchase agreement dated April 29, 2014 (together with the Original Agreement, the "Prior Agreements") with Wolverine, whereby Wolverine agreed to acquire up to a 90% interest in Remedios Gold from Herbo.

Tolima today announces that the Sellers have signed a further restated share purchase agreement dated effective July 9, 2014 with Wolverine, whereby Wolverine has agreed to acquire a 100% interest in Remedios Gold from Herbo in exchange for total consideration of $700,000, which is to be satisfied by forgiveness of the Loan (the "Transaction"). Under the revised Transaction terms, Wolverine is no longer required to incur the $2 million in work commitments, or to pay the Sellers the 2.5% net smelter return royalty on production from the Properties, that were required under the terms of the Prior Agreements. Closing of the Transaction is subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Properties are located in the Remedios and Segovia municipalities of Antioquia, Colombia, a region with mining tradition that dates back to three centuries before the Spanish colonization of the region in the 15th century. There are over 500 active small mines documented in this mining district, which constitutes the primary economic activity and source of employment in the region.
