Alpha Exploration (AEX-V) April 1, '14 is pleased to announce that it has drilled ten holes with elevated radioactivity and strong alteration on the Middle Lake Property (owned 80% by Alpha and 20% by Acme Resources Inc. as a carried interest).

Drill holes ML14-019, -021, and -024 to -029 all intersected anomalous gamma radiation values based on down-hole gamma logging and hand-held scintillometer analysis. The first drill hole of the series, ML14-019, tested a well-defined gravity low anomaly and a coincident VTEM conductor located about 300 m up-ice from a boulder with a reported grade of 16.9% U3O8, and about 5 km up-ice from the historical Donna boulder field with grades up to 25% U3O8. ML14-019 intersected anomalous radioactivity and moderately to strongly bleached and pale green altered pegmatite with dark smokey quartz, that was repeatedly intruded by strongly bleached and clay altered Cluff Breccia.

Follow up drilling with holes ML14-021 and -024 to -029 at the “Donna zone” defined an approximate 40 metre wide, moderately to strongly bleached and clay altered graphitic ultramylonite and cataclasite zone with numerous intervals of Cluff Breccia; all with sporadic anomalous radioactivity. This is a highly prospective structural zone for high grade uranium mineralization, strikes grid south and is sub-vertical to steeply grid east dipping, and is bound by a pegmatite footwall and a semi-pelitic gneiss hanging wall.

The Donna zone is located along an approximate 3 km long VTEM conductor, which has offsets or breaks in continuity suggesting cross structures. The conductor skirts along the SW edge of the Skull Intrusive Complex magnetic high. This complex is part of the main divide between the interpreted NE and SW halves of the basement core within the Carswell Structure. Drill hole ML14-023 was located approximately 770 m NW along this trend from the Donna zone, and encountered wide intervals of graphitic ultramylonite that are considered a favourable host rock for uranium mineralization.

Team Alpha considers this first phase of drilling to have been an encouraging first step towards locating shallow mineralization that may be associated with a source area of the historical Donna boulder field located down-ice to the SW. A review of assays and geochemistry will be carried out upon receipt of results in order to assist in further target selection.

ML14-020	11.5	No Significant Anomalous Radioactivity

A fence of three drill holes (ML14-006, -009, and -010) on the South Grid tested a gravity low trough bound by VTEM conductors with associated helium and radon anomalies. Moderately bleached and clay altered mylonite, cataclasite, and pegmatite with anomalous radioactivity was intersected in drill holes ML14-006 and -009.

ML14-010	9.9	No Significant Anomalous Radioactivity

All holes were radiometrically surveyed with a Mount Sopris 2PGA-1000 natural gamma probe. The reader is cautioned that a total counts gamma probe reading is the result of natural gamma radiation that may come from various sources including cosmic radiation, thorium, potassium and uranium and its radioactive decay products. CPS (counts per second) values cannot be certain to correlate with uranium grades of the rock but are a general guide of the radioactivity of minerals present in rock placed in proximity to the instrument. All intersections are down-hole, core interval measurements and true thickness is yet to be determined.

Drilling was extended from the original 2,000 m 20-hole program to the completed meterage of 3,287 m in 31 holes to better assess the Donna zone. Core samples have been submitted for geochemical and PIMA clay analysis to assist in setting priorities for the next phase of work. Assay results will be announced when available.

Split core samples were recovered continuously through intervals of anomalous radioactivity, and were submitted to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories (an SCC ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 Accredited Facility) of Saskatoon for analysis, which includes U3O8 (wt %) and fire assay for gold. All samples sent for analysis will include a 63 element ICP-OES, uranium by ICP-MS, and boron.
