FEX Fjordland Exploration Inc

Fjordland Exploration Inc. (TSX VENTURE: FEX) reports that it has outlined a large induced polarization chargeability (IP) anomaly on its Moffat property, which is part of the Tak-Milligan project in central British Columbia. Drill testing is scheduled for September.

The seven properties that comprise the "Tak" package (total 55,654 hectares) of the Tak-Milligan project are under option to Capstone Mining Corp. (TSX: CS) and lie immediately south of the Woodjam North and South copper-gold-molybdenum projects, where Gold Fields is currently conducting a multi-million dollar exploration program.

Much of the Quesnel trough region, hosting the Tak properties, is covered by extensive overburden, which has hampered traditional, historical exploration. The discovery of significant copper-gold-molybdenum mineralization, associated with the Takomkane batholith, at Woodjam South and on the Moffat Lake property suggests important exploration potential over a very large unexplored area.

During June 2011, reconnaissance-scale IP surveys were completed over two properties (Moffat and Tisdall) totaling 19 line km. The lines were spaced between 700 and 1000 m apart. In addition, limited soil sampling and prospecting were completed on these two properties, as well as on the Canim and Howard Lake properties.

At Moffat (24,974 ha), the western part of the property is underlain by airborne and ground magnetic anomalies, coincident with a copper-in-soils anomaly and a 3.5 km-long chargeability (IP) anomaly, trending north-northwesterly. Late in 2010, chalcopyrite and molybdenite bedrock mineralization was discovered between two of the three reconnaissance IP lines completed (see News Release dated December 7, 2010). The best grab sample assay returned 0.36% copper, 0.29 g/t gold, 6.9 g/t silver and 11 ppm molybdenum. During June 2011, Fjordland continued its program of reconnaissance IP surveying over this area, completing11 line-km on 5 lines. An additional 6.5 line-km of in-fill and expansion (to the north) IP surveying is scheduled for August- September, prior to a planned drilling program consisting of 3 holes totaling approximately 900 m. This target area is just west of two mineralized outcrops, 620 m apart, and approximately 1000 m north of the Harrison Creek copper-gold-molybdenum Minfile prospect.

At Tisdall (7,195 ha), during June 2011, an IP chargeability high anomaly was identified by an 8 line-km IP survey. This anomaly lies immediately south of the Tisdall Lake showing, where Gold Fields plans to drill test a new copper discovery in August, as part of its Woodjam North option agreement with Fjordland and Cariboo Rose Resources Ltd. During August-September, 2011, an additional 4 line-km of IP surveying and limited soil sampling are sceduled.

Capstone has recently vested into its 49% interest in the Tak-Milligan project and has confirmed that it will fund the next phase of work on the Tak-Milligan option. The commitment is for exploration expenditures totaling $300,000 by the end of December, 2011. By funding a further $1.7 million of exploration expenditures on or before December 31, 2013 Capstone may earn an additional 11% interest in the project, for a cumulative 60% interest. The planned phase two program for 2011 includes approximately 10 line-km of IP surveying (as discussed above) and soil geochemical surveying on the Moffat and Tisdall properties, plus limited soil sampling on the Howard Lake and Milligan properties. Preliminary drilling is planned on the Moffat property; drilling on Tisdall will be subject to additional funding.

Tom Schroeter, President of Fjordland commented: "We are very pleased to have come up with drill targets on two of the Tak properties within the first year of our option agreement with Capstone. We look forward to initiating drilling on the Moffat Property later this Fall."
