TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwired – April 22, 2015) – Alexandria Minerals Corporation (TSX VENTURE:AZX)(FRANKFURT:A9D) (“Alexandria” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the first drill hole assay results from its wintertime exploration drilling program on the western half of its Cadillac Break Properties, Val d’Or, intersecting 111.3 meters grading 1.24 grams/tonne (“g/t”) gold from 171.5 meters to 282.8 meters downhole, an interval which includes a number of high grade gold-bearing veins, up to 25.30 g/t gold over 0.9 meters.

Eric Owens, President and CEO, stated, “We have been re-interpreting the geology of Orenada as part of our broader exploration program, specifically identifying flat lying veins. The implications of the high grade, flat veins could be important for the deeper parts of this deposit.”

In the first of two holes testing for high grade gold veins within Orenada Zone 4, Diamond drill hole OAX-15-054 intersected several high grade gold veins carrying more than 5 g/t gold, which occur within the Cadillac Break shear zone near the southern boundary of the East Sullivan Granitic Porphyry Intrusion.

In late 2009, Alexandria issued its first resource estimate (NI 43-101 compliant) at Orenada, focusing on the shallow, open pit potential of the project hosted within the Cadillac Break shear zone. However, past underground mapping at Orenada, which has a 1,000 foot shaft and two exploration drifts, has indicated the presence and importance of relatively flat-lying gold veins within the broad shear zone. These higher grade veins within the broadly disseminated gold zone could be important for the deeper parts of the gold zone below the shallow, potentially open pit mineralization.

Hole OAX-15-054 was the first of two boreholes drilled within the Zone 4 2009 NI 43-101 resource envelope to test the new model. It was drilled with a core-orienting system to collect structural data and will be surveyed with optical borehole imaging to confirm the measurements. Assays are pending for part of the first hole and all of the second hole.

All technical information presented in this press release has been reviewed by Phillippe Berthelot, P.Geo, who is the Company’s Qualified Person. All exploration work on the property is conducted under the direct supervision of Mr. Berthelot, and the Company adheres to industry best practices consistent with NI 43-101 for its QA/QC program.
