Eagle Hill Completes Fall Drill Program, Releases Interim Results

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired - Dec 19, 2013) - Eagle Hill Exploration Corp. (TSX VENTURE:EAG) (OTCQX:EHECF) (FRANKFURT:EH0) ("Eagle Hill" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has completed its fall 2013 drill program, which commenced in September 2013 with the objective of expanding the existing mineral resource. The drill program was completed on time and on budget, with a total of approximately 28,000 metres completed in 65 diamond drill holes. Assay results for the first 11 were reported on November 5, 2013, and this release contains the results from a further 24 holes (Table 1). Assay results from the remaining 30 holes are expected in January 2014.

The diamond drill program was focused in three areas: testing a large, sparsely drilled anomaly to the southwest of the Main Zone, drilling lateral extension of known gold lenses within the Main Zone, and testing the extension of mineralization at depth. The first 11 holes (4,821 metres) tested geophysical anomalies southwest of the tested limit of the Main Zone gold mineralization. The Company drilled three sections, stepping out 150, 300 and 500 metres along strike. Each section intersected significant gold mineralization, confirming the potential to extend the known gold resource in this direction. In December 2013 Eagle Hill drilled seven follow-up holes in this newly identified zone, with results pending.

In the Main Zone the Company drilled 47 holes (20,100 metres) with the objective of expanding the strike length of the major resource lenses (the Zone 27, Caribou, Mink and Mallard lenses). While not all results have been received, assays received to date indicate the potential to expand the Mallard Lense to the west and below the Red Dog non-mineralized intrusion, with intersections of 328 g/t gold over 0.9 m (EAG-13-484) and 24.1 g/t gold over 1.0 m (EAG-13-483), respectively. Assays also indicate that high-grade mineralization extends as much as 80 metres down-plunge of the Mink Lense, extending the Mink Lense to 400 metres below surface with 8.4 g/t gold over 4.0 m (EAG-13-496) and 11.2 g/t gold over 0.8 m (EAG-13-485).

Near the Zone 27 Lense, a shear zone was intersected in EAG-13-502 with 24.9 g/t gold over 1.1 m at a depth of 537 metres. This could represent a splay of the shear zone intersected in EAG-13-466 (12.4 m @ 288.5 g/t gold)¹, located approximately 65 metres to the southwest, and may represent another high-grade gold structure.

The Company also completed a hole-to-hole induced polarization geophysics program to identify possible depth extensions of gold mineralized lenses of the Main Zone below the Red Dog non-mineralized intrusion. The results of the survey are being processed.

Eagle Hill will release the remaining assay results in January 2014, along with a detailed interpretation of how the fall 2013 drill program has advanced the Company's understanding of the Windfall Lake gold deposit. Eagle Hill will also release an updated mineral resource estimate in Q1-2014. The Company has more than 57,000 metres of new drilling to incorporate into the updated resource estimate, with 28,000 metres from the current drill program, and 106 holes totalling 29,208 metres(1) that were drilled after the 2012 resource estimate and prior to the current program.

¹ Drill results have been previously disseminated by press release and are available on SEDAR and on Eagle Hill's website.

About the Windfall Lake Gold Project

The Windfall Lake gold deposit comprises a number of lenses of pyritic stockworks and shears hosted in Archean felsic and intermediate volcanics situated in the Urban-Barry Greenstone Belt, approximately 200 km northeast of Val d'Or, Quebec. SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. completed a National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource estimate for Eagle Hill in July 2012 based on historical drilling by Eagle Hill and previous operators. The estimated resource comprises 1,665,000 tonnes at 10.05 g/t gold (538,000 ounces) in the indicated category and 2,906,000 tonnes at 8.76 g/t gold (822,000 ounces) in the inferred category. The bulk of the mineralization occurs in the Main Zone, a southwest/northeast trending zone of stacked mineralized lenses, measuring approximately 600 metres wide and at least 1,400 metres long.


About Eagle Hill Exploration Corporation

Eagle Hill Exploration Corp. is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on the exploration and development of the high-grade Windfall Lake Gold Deposit, located between Val-d'Or and Chibougamau in Quebec. In August 2013, Southern Arc Minerals and Dundee Corporation invested an aggregate of $12 million to purchase a controlling interest in Eagle Hill, consolidate ownership of the Windfall Lake property and fund an aggressive exploration program.

Qualified Person

The technical information in this document has been reviewed by Eagle Hill's Vice President Exploration, Jean-Philippe Desrochers, PhD, PGeo, who has sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralization under consideration and qualifies as a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The drill program and sampling protocol is managed by Eagle Hill under the supervision of Jean-Philippe Desrochers. The diamond drill holes are drilled at NQ sizes and core recovery to date has averaged better than 95.0%. Half core is cut by rock saw and is generally sampled using nominal 1-metre intervals; however, sample intervals vary according to geological contacts and have ranged between 0.3 to 1.5 metres in length. Two quality control samples (one blank and one certified reference material) are inserted into each batch of 20 samples. All assays were performed by ALS Chemex Laboratory Group, in Val d'Or, Quebec. The half core samples are securely transported from the project site to the ALS Chemex laboratory by Eagle Hill personnel. Gold analyses reported in this release were performed by standard fire assay using a 50-gram charge with atomic absorption finish and a gravimetric finish for assays greater than 10 grams per tonne and by metallic sieve method for samples containing significant amounts of pyrite or visible gold. In addition, an Aqua regia digestion with ICP-AES finish is used to analyse a full suite of elements including silver and base metals.
