Alexandria Minerals Corporation (TSX
VENTURE:AZX)(FRANKFURT:A9D)(PINKSHEETS:ALXDF) is pleased to announce that it has
begun a 10,000 m drill program intended to find more Akasaba-like gold-copper
mineralization on the western half of its 35 km-long Cadillac Break property
package in Val d'Or Quebec. 


Drilling has commenced with one drill rig in the Akasaba mine area, initially
testing downhole geophysical anomalies below the Current Resources there, to be
followed by testing a large, 1,000 m long and 650 m deep, Induced Polarization
("IP") anomaly east along strike with the mine area. The second half of this
program will then focus on similar targets 5-6 km west of Akasaba, on the
Company's Oramaque, Ducros, and Annamaque projects.


Eric Owens, President and CEO, said, "This new round of drilling will be testing
some of the large geological and alteration systems we have identified on our
Cadillac Break Property Group, which includes Akasaba-like gold-copper targets
over the western half of the property package."


Alexandria geologists discovered significant gold-copper resources at Akasaba
and the West Zone, which together make the fourth largest metal deposit in Val
d'Or (See Press Release, February 7, 2013). In order to expand on this,
Alexandria completed a series of surface IP surveys through Winter 2013-2014,
covering 20 square-km (1,987 hectares) over 2 principal areas: the
Akasaba-Valdora projects, and 6 km to the west on its Oramaque, Annamaque, and
Ducros projects. 


Alexandria is encouraged that the geological characteristics observed at Akasaba
underlie much of the western half of its 35 km-long Cadillac Break group of
properties. One of the more potentially significant targets extends for more
than 5 km, which hosts historical drill assay results such as on the Ducros
property as 0.23% Cu over 209 m and 0.54% Cu over 56.6 m, including 1.6% Cu over
10.9 m. Original drill core sampling for gold by previous explorers was
sporadic, and a program of re-sampling of selected historic drill holes is
underway to determine gold content.


The estimated budget for this drill program is $600,000, and Alexandria's cash
and short term assets currently stand at $4,000,000.


Program design, management, and Quality Control/Quality Assurance are governed
by Alexandria's exploration group of which Philippe Berthelot, P.Geo, is the
Company's Qualified Person. Mr. Berthelot has reviewed the results in this press
release. 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.
