Minera IRL Limited Announces Process of Removing Former Company Executive From Role With Peruvian Subsidiaries, 
Commencement of Criminal Proceedings and Corihuarmi Update 
 
LIMA, PERU--(Marketwired - Sept. 21, 2015) - Minera IRL Limited ("Minera IRL" or the "Company") 
(TSX:IRL)(AIM:MIRL)(BVLAC:MIRL) announces that the Company has advanced the independent investigation as 
described in the 24 August 2015 Press Release and, as a result, has started the process of dismissing Mr. Diego 
Benavides, the former interim CEO of the Company, from his role as President and General Manager of the 
Company's two Peruvian operating subsidiaries, Minera IRL S.A. and Compania Minera Kuri Kullu S.A. Further, on 
the advice of Peruvian counsel, criminal proceedings against Mr. Benavides have commenced. Under Peruvian 
corporate law, the process of removing Mr. Benavides from his controlling position with the Peruvian 
subsidiaries may take several months; however, in the interim, to the extent possible, the Company is taking 
steps to safeguard its assets in Peru. 
 
Following this temporary compromise of control within the Peruvian subsidiaries the Company requested a 
precautionary suspension from trading on AIM. The suspension will remain in place until such time the Board is 
satisfied that appropriate control has been re-established. The Company will provide updates on the management 
of the two Peruvian subsidiaries as they become available. 
 
Corihuarmi Update 
 
The lower gold price in 2015 has adversely affected the profitability of the Company's low-grade Corihuarmi 
mine, which has been in operation since 2008, but is nearing the end of its mine life and has imposed further 
stress on the Company's financial situation, particularly its working capital position. The board is currently 
evaluating alternative scenarios for the mine in advance of discussions with its lenders. The Company expects 
to make a further announcement in the near future.

Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Information 
 
Certain information in this news release, including information about the Company's financial or operating 
performance and other statements expressing management's expectations or estimates of future events, 
performance and exploration and development programs or plans constitute "forward-looking statements". Forward- 
looking statements often, but not always, are identified by words such as "seek", "believe", "expect", "do not 
expect", "will", "will not", "intend", "estimate", "anticipate", "plan", "schedule" and similar expressions of 
a conditional or future oriented nature identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are, 
necessarily, based upon a number of estimates and assumptions. While considered by management to be reasonable 
in the context in which they are made, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to political, legal, 
regulatory, business and economic risks and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. 
 
The Company cautions readers that forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and 
other factors that may cause Minera IRL's actual financial results, future performance and results of 
exploration and development programs and plans to be materially different than those expected or estimated 
future results, performance or achievements and that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future 
performance, results or achievements. 
 
Forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this news release and Minera IRL assumes no obligation, 
except as may be required by law, to update or revise them to reflect new events or circumstances. Risks, 
uncertainties and contingencies and other factors that might cause actual performance to differ from forward- 
looking statements include, but are not limited to, any failure to obtain or complete project financing for the 
Ollachea Gold Project (including the Senior Debt Facility), changes in the price of precious metals and 
commodities, changes in the relative exchange rates of the US dollar against the Peruvian nuevo sol, interest 
rates, legislative, political, social or economic developments both within the countries in which the Company 
operates and in general, contests over title to property, the speculative nature of mineral exploration and 
development, operating or technical difficulties in connection with the Company's development or exploration 
programs, increasing costs as a result of inflation or scarcity of human resources and input materials or 
equipment. Known and unknown risks inherent in the mining business include potential uncertainties related to 
the title of mineral claims, the accuracy of mineral reserve and resource estimates, metallurgical recoveries, 
capital and operating costs and the future demand for minerals. For additional information, please consult the
