NEWS RELEASE
Advanced Explorations Inc. Progressing with Feasibility Study
(TSX VENTURE: AXI)
(FRANKFURT: AE6)
TORONTO, ONTARIO- September 7, 2011 - Advanced Explorations Inc. (the "Company" or "AEI") is pleased to announce that work continues in support of the Roche Bay Feasibility Study (?FS?). In addition to this summer?s resource and geotechnical drill programs the Company has initiated a number of metallurgical studies looking to optimize concentrate process and quality while reducing the associated operating and capital cost. To date there have been five independent metallurgical studies undertaken (two in Canada, two in Germany and one in China) which support the previously reported results that a high quality concentrate can be produced. The Company does expect to provide a further update on the C- Zone resource as part of this ongoing work with the intention of expanding the FS resource base.
A delegation of 9 from XinXing Pipes Group (?XXP?) that includes their technical team from Han-Xing Institute Mining Institute and China Communications Construction Corporation arrived in Canada on September 5th, 2011, to review the technical and financial aspects of the Roche Bay C-Zone project with Wardrop Engineering (A Tetra Tech Company) and AEI. The technical sessions with Wardrop, Golder Associates and AEI teams will include over 20 professionals. Part of the group will also travel to Nunavut to visit the Project and to meet with local and territorial government officials.
With the shareholder and TSX approvals complete (July 28, 2011 press release), the Company is also using this opportunity to collaborate on finalizing the formal Joint Venture Agreement and any terms and conditions associated with implementation of the Joint Venture. Once in place AEI and XXP will be in a position to move forward with the Roche Bay partnership and development.
John Gingerich, President and CEO, commented:
?The Company is pleased to host such a distinguished Chinese delegation whose visit demonstrates a sincere commitment to fully understanding the technical, financial and social aspects associated with the Roche Bay Project. The XXP-AEI Joint Venture represents one of the largest potential Chinese mining investments in Canada. Given the Federal Government recent announcements in respect to supporting responsible mine development in Nunavut, the Company?s development plans align well with the social and economic development needs of the north.?

ABOUT Advanced Explorations Inc.
Advanced Explorations Inc., based in Toronto, Ontario, is a resource development company focused on its Roche Bay Iron Ore Project in Nunavut, one of the world's largest developing iron ore districts. The Roche Bay Project is located proximal to a natural deep water harbour on the east coast of the Melville Peninsula in Nunavut, Canada giving it many logistical advantages. The project has an indicated resource of 323 million tonnes, outlined within a small portion of the potential 140 km of banded iron formation. This iron formation incorporates the Roche Bay deposits, the Company's Tuktu deposits and other targeted deposits in areas to the north, south and west of the Company's Roche Bay Project. The Preliminary Economic Assessment (?PEA?) from the Roche Bay deposit alone indicates a potential net present value of US $1.1 billion, and the potential for rapid advancement into development of either iron concentrate or high value iron nugget products. A feasibility study is currently underway that is examining a concentrate start up operation of 5 million tonnes per year. Future expansions will consider additional concentrate and/or iron nuggets as envisaged in the PEA filed on SEDAR. The management team has extensive technical, exploration and Canadian Arctic mining expertise to effectively develop the high quality iron ore opportunities on the Melville Peninsula.
