Alpha Exploration (AEX-V) July 24, '14 summer exploration program has commenced at the Carpenter Lake project in Northern Saskatchewan, Canada. The property is under an option agreement from Noka Resources Inc.

Details of the agreement are on the company's website. Alpha is the operator for exploration at Carpenter Lake.

Carpenter Lake lies approximately 85 kilometres west of the past-producing Key Lake uranium mine along the Cable Bay shear zone, straddling the south-central rim of the Athabasca basin, and comprises a total of 20,637 hectares within five contiguous mineral dispositions.

A detailed, low-altitude, airborne gamma spectrometer survey has just been completed over the property by Goldak Airborne Surveys. The Goldak survey has outlined several areas within the property that show radioactive anomalies attributed to uranium.

A prospecting program has commenced at Carpenter Lake, to follow up on the results of the Goldak survey, and previously flown VTEM (versatile time-domain electromagnetic) and magnetometer surveys (see Alpha's news release dated Feb. 3, 2014). Detailed radon-in-soil and soil geochemical surveys will also be done, to enhance targets established from geochemical surveys conducted during the recently completed 2014 winter program (see Alpha's news release dated May 21, 2014).

The radon-in-water and lake sediment uranium anomalies identified in the winter 2014 surveys are important indicators for locating potential buried uranium mineralization or uranium boulder fields in a down-ice direction from potential bedrock sources of uranium. Over all, fieldwork this summer will focus on those areas with the strongest integration of airborne radiometric anomalies, geochemical anomalies and the location of crosscutting features on regional conductors, as defined by the recent airborne VTEM survey.

The technical information in this news release has been prepared in accordance with the Canadian regulatory requirements set out in National Instrument 43-101, and reviewed and confirmed on behalf of Alpha Exploration by Ben Ainsworth, PEng, SK, a qualified person.
