TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Feb. 20, 2014) - Alexandria Minerals Corporation (TSX VENTURE:AZX) (FRANKFURT:A9D) (PINKSHEETS:ALXDF) is pleased to report on its winter exploration activities, including assay results from its recent drill program on the Akasaba and adjacent Valdora properties.

Winter activities have included:

• a 9,328 m drill program on the Akasaba and adjacent Valdora projects;
• Induced Polarization ("IP") geophysical survey of approximately 79 line-km (744 ha) in the area located east and north of the Akasaba Mine; and
• a down-hole, hole-to-hole IP survey completed below the Akasaba Mine site to aid in targeting deeper high grade mineralization in this zone.

Assays analysis from 8 holes and final results from all of the geophysical surveys are pending.

Results of the Valdora-Akasaba drill program are presented in detail in Table 1 and Table 2 below. Highlights of this drill program include the following significant drill results:

• 5.29 g/t Au over 4.00 m, including 19.20 g/t Au over 1.00 m, in hole IAX-13-245, which expands the high grade zone at 350 m depth below the Akasaba Mine, and
• 2.81 g/t Au over 16.80 m, including 142.50 g/t Au over 0.30 m, in hole VAX-13-005, as part of Alexandria's first significant drill program on the Valdora project, located immediately north of the Akasaba project.

Eric Owens, President and CEO of Alexandria, stated, "This is a great first step towards gaining an understanding of the size potential of the broader Akasaba geologic system since selling to Agnico Eagle 14 mining claims located in the West Zone Au-Cu Property. We strongly believe there is considerably more gold to be found, as our underlying geology is similar to that found under the Bousquet-Doyon-LaRonde District where some 26 million ounces of gold have been mined. Our winter drill and geophysical programs are aimed at helping to plan for the future discovery of more gold within that system."

Alexandria's recent drill program focused on two (2) areas underlying the Akasaba property and three (3) zones underlying Valdora. On Akasaba, one hole (IAX-13-245) tested the main Mine Horizon 350 m vertical depth below surface beneath the Akasaba Mine and intersected 5.29 g/t Au over 4.00 m of core length, or 2.68 m TW (see assay Table 2 below), thus expanding the Mine Horizon mineralization. Alexandria's current Akasaba Mine resources are listed below:

Elsewhere on Akasaba, two (2) pre-existing holes were deepened by approximately 300m and 7 new holes were drilled to test the eastern portions of the North Zone over a 1 km strike length. The North Zone has similar geology to the main Mine Horizon, is subparallel to the latter, and located 150m to 200m to the north. All holes intersected a large sequence of interbedded mafic and intermediate flows and pyroclastics mineralized with disseminated sulphides associated with low grade gold mineralization, confirming the potential for near-surface bulk tonnage targets. One hole, IAX-13-250, intersected 23.60 g/t Au over 0.65 m. Assay results are pending for 4 holes.

This winter drill program included eight (8) drill holes on the Valdora property just north of Akasaba. Three subparallel zones were tested at shallow level with 100m to 200m spaced holes for both low grade gold mineralization associated with disseminated sulphides in volcanics and high grade gold in quartz-tourmaline veins in felsic and mafic intrusives. Visible Gold in mms size quartz-carbonate vein was intersected in a Quartz Feldspar Porphyry with fine disseminated pyrite in drill hole VAX-13-005 which returned 142.5g/t Au over 0.30m. Assays are pending for four (4) drill holes which intersected mafic volcanics from the Heva Formation displaying alteration and mineralization styles similar to the Akasaba main zone.

Alexandria is currently conducting a 4000m drilling campaign with nine (9) drill holes on its Sleepy deposit. One hole will be testing the extension of the mineralized zone west of fault along flat plunge from SAX-11-009 which intersected 6.82g/t Au over 16.96m TW at 430m vertical depth. Three (3) drill holes will be testing deep target 100m to 300m below 2011-2013 Sleepy lake zone expansion. In 2013, Alexandria extended the Sleepy lake zone approximately 200m below current resources where SAX-13-025 intersected 6.65g/t Au and 0.15%Zn over 4.65m TW and 5.73g/t Au over 2.67m TW. The program will also test shallow Sleepy lake-like targets along strike and east from the deposit with five (5) 150m to 510m drill holes.

Current exploration activities also include an Induced Polarization over significant areas of the Company's Oramaque-Orenada-Ducros and Annamaque-Sabourin properties (approximately 102 line km for 1046 ha). Surveys will focus upon the metamorphic aureole west of the Callahan intrusive on the Annamaque-Sabourin properties, and upon the contact between the Center Post Intrusive and volcanics from the Heva formation around the Cadillac Break area on the Orenada-Oramaque-Ducros properties. The latest is recognized to host several gold and gold-copper indices as well as historical mines such as the Mid-Canada and East Sullivan mines.

Program design, management, and Quality Control/Quality Assurance are governed by Alexandria's exploration group of which Peter Legein, P.Geo, is the Company's Qualified Person. Mr. Legein has reviewed the results in this press release. All exploration work on the property is conducted under the direct supervision of Emilie Batailler P.Geo. The QA/QC program is consistent with NI 43-101 and industry best practices and has been previously addressed in the NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Cadillac Break properties (February 2008) as well as in subsequent NI 43-101 reports found on the Company's website or on www.sedar.com.
