Kivalliq Energy Corporation ("Kivalliq") (TSX VENTURE:KIV) today provided an
update on the $20 million exploration program at the 252,830 acre Angilak
Property in Nunavut Territory, Canada. Kivalliq reports anomalous radioactivity
from additional drilling at the Western Extension, Pulse, and three new zones
identified this season. Thus far, diamond drilling in 2012 has focused on
evaluating linear electromagnetic ("EM") conductors occurring within 2.5
kilometres of the high grade Lac Cinquante uranium deposit. Assay results will
be released when available.


Key Point Summary



--  Western Extension Zone at Lac Cinquante was extended to 365 vertical
    metres by hole 12-LC-007. This is the deepest known radioactive
    intercept reported on the Angilak Property to date. 
--  The new Southwest Zone has been discovered 300 metres to the southwest
    of, and running parallel to, the Western Extension. 
--  Pulse Zone diamond drilling intersected radioactivity in 14 of 27 holes
    that tested the Pulse geophysical anomaly over 1.3 kilometres of strike
    length. 
--  A second new radioactive zone, Flare, is associated with a 1.5 kilometre
    long EM conductor located 1.7 kilometres west of the Lac Cinquante
    resource area. 
--  Three core holes at the new Ray Zone have intersected radioactivity
    associated with a subtle EM conductor. Ray is situated two kilometres
    along strike and southeast of the Lac Cinquante resource area. 



"Initial results from diamond drilling at numerous conductors close to Lac
Cinquante are very encouraging," stated Jeff Ward, President. "This first round
of drilling confirmed that targeting geological and geophysical analogues to Lac
Cinquante can discover similar radioactive zones nearby with appreciable strike
length."


Ongoing aggressive exploration in 2012 will investigate multiple uranium targets
discovered or advanced by the 2010 and 2011 prospecting and geophysical
programs. In addition, the company intends to build on the current inferred
resource of 27.13 million pounds U3O8 at Lac Cinquante.  Kivalliq expects to
drill 26,000 metres of NQ core on advanced targets using three diamond drill
rigs and 9,000 metres of reverse circulation drilling ("RC") designed to
prioritise exploration targets. Extensive ground based geophysical surveying,
prospecting and soil sampling campaigns are also planned for 2012.


Exploration progress in 2012 to date includes:



--  64 diamond drill holes totalling 11,650 metres focussed on linear
    geophysical targets and radioactive zones from RC drilling 
--  17 RC holes totalling 3,048 metres designed to prioritise areas for
    follow up diamond drilling 
--  445 line kilometres of ground geophysical surveying 



Western Extension

New drilling at the Western Extension has started testing below the current Lac
Cinquante resource area. Thirteen diamond drill holes from seven sites
intersected the host shear zone using 100 metre hole spacing. Of these, seven
intersected anomalous radioactivity, outlining southwest plunging
mineralization, including the deepest radioactive intercept on the property to
date at 365 metres (hole 12-LC-007). Anomalous gamma values range from 200 to a
peak of 17,000 counts per second (cps), with down hole intercepts of 0.3 to 2.6
metres wide. Continued deep drilling is warranted at the Western Extension.


Southwest Zone

Radioactive mineralization was identified along 200 metres of an EM conductor
located roughly 300 metres southwest of, and parallel to, the Western Extension.
Eight of 11 holes drilled from four sites intersected anomalous radioactivity
between 65 to 148 metres vertical depth, in host geology similar to Lac
Cinquante. Radioactive readings between 200 and a peak of 28,350 cps were
measured over 0.3 to 2.8 metres width down hole. 


Pulse Zone

Diamond drilling along 1.3 kilometres of the three kilometre long Pulse EM
conductor encountered anomalous radioactivity in 14 of 27 holes drilled in 2012
to date. Pulse is located roughly 700 metres north and parallel to Lac
Cinquante; and was confirmed to host uranium through RC and diamond drilling
last year (see January 10, 2012 news release). Intermittent radioactivity at
Pulse is hosted in narrow carbonate-quartz-hematite veins in steeply dipping
sheared basalt or sulphidic tuff. Drilling was from nine sites with varying
spacing along strike and to a maximum depth of 170 metres. Radioactivity ranged
from 200 to a high of 10,000 cps with down hole intercepts up to 1.1 metres
wide. 


Flare Zone

The Flare Zone is characterized by a 1.5 kilometre long northwest trending EM
conductor located 1.7 kilometres southwest of the Lac Cinquante Western
Extension. Six holes drilled from three sites tested the target at 50 metre
centres, along 100 metres of a strike length and down to 112 metres. Three holes
encountered weak radioactivity ranging from 200 to 7510 cps in down hole widths
up to 1.0 metre wide. 


Ray Zone 

The Ray Zone is a subtle EM conductor two kilometres along strike and southeast
of Lac Cinquante's Eastern Extension. Three holes from a single site have
intersected anomalous radioactivity with values ranging from 200 to 6450 cps in
down hole widths up to 1.0 metre wide. Mineralization at Ray occurs in a narrow
sulphidic, graphitic tuff horizon, similar to the same unit hosting
mineralization at Lac Cinquante. 


All holes in target areas were drilled northeast with azimuths between 26 and 35
degrees at inclinations between -45 and -90 degrees. For maps and drill plan

QA/QC

Half-spilt core samples from holes drilled at the Angilak Property, with
anomalous radioactivity levels between 200 and 28,350 CPS measured to date, have
been sent to Saskatchewan Research Council Geoanalytical Laboratories ("SRC")
for analysis. The SRC facility operates in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025:2005
(CAN-P-4E), General Requirements for the Competence of Mineral Testing and
Calibration laboratories and is accredited by the Standards Council of Canada.
Kivalliq's quality assurance and quality control procedures include the
systematic insertion of blanks and standards into the drill core sample string.
Chemical assay results from this drill program will be reported by Kivalliq upon
receipt.


Natural gamma radiation in drill core was measured in counts per second (cps)
using a hand-held Radiation Solutions Inc. RS-121 scintillometer or RS-230
spectrometer. Kivalliq cautions that scintillometer readings are not directly
related to uranium grade and are only used to indicate zones of radioactive
material.
