LRA Lara Exploration Ltd

Lara Exploration Ltd., (TSX VENTURE:LRA) ("Lara" or the "Company") reports that
Focus Graphite Inc. ("Focus") has advised the Company that it is relinquishing
its option to earn up to a 60% interest in the Company's Caninde Graphite
Project in Ceara State, Brazil.


During 2012 the Company completed a program of mapping, surface sampling and
trenching, funded by Focus, which outlined several new flake graphite
occurrences, some with relatively high grades, as well as completing further
work on some of the occurrences identified previously by Lara (see Company news
releases of December 05, 2011, April 11, 2012 and January 14, 2014 for details).
Lara plans to execute additional trenching in the coming months and to seek a
new partner to advance the project.


The Caninde Graphite Project comprises 15,614 hectares of exploration licenses
accessible on paved highways from the Ceara State Capital, Fortaleza. The
graphite occurrences are hosted within gently dipping schistose rocks and shear
zones developed within a complex of felsic gneisses with local meta-sedimentary
schist enclaves.


Quality Control:

Michael Bennell, Lara's Vice President Exploration and a Fellow of the
Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (AusIMM), is a qualified person
as defined by the National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral
Projects and is responsible for the preparation and verification of the
technical information in this release.
