Fjordland Exploration Inc. (TSX VENTURE:FEX) is pleased to report that it has
commenced a Phase 4, 2012 exploration program, budgeted at approximately
$375,000, on the Tak Project, part of the Tak-Milligan Property Option, located
approximately 50 kilometres (km) east of Williams Lake, and immediately south of
the developing Woodjam copper-gold-molybdenum porphyry camp.


The objective of the next phase (Phase 4) of exploration is to further delineate
areas of induced polarization (IP) chargeability and resistivity anomalies on
the Moffat Property (6 line km), followed by additional drilling if warranted.
Additional IP (7 line km) and soil geochemical surveys will be completed on the
Tisdall Property and, contingent on results, drilling will follow. IP surveys
will be conducted on the Canim (6 line km), Hazel North and Hazel South
properties (5 line km). In total, 24 line km of IP and 1000 m of drilling are
planned, with most of the work to be completed by July.


The Tak portion of the project consists of nine non-contiguous claim blocks
(Moffat, Moffat East, Tisdall, Canim, Howard Lake, LaHache, Hazel North, Hazel
South and HR), with a total area of 48,350 hectares. To date, under an option
agreement, Capstone Mining Corp. (TSX:CS) has funded exploration expenditures
totaling approximately $827,000 in three phases of work on the Tak-Milligan
Property. Capstone has vested a 49% interest and can earn a 60% interest by
funding additional exploration in two phases in the amount of $1,400,000.
Capstone may earn a total of 70% of the Properties by spending a cumulative
total of $6,000,000 on or before December 31, 2016.


Tom Schroeter, President of Fjordland, commented: "Fjordland looks forward to
the results of its ongoing exploration programs on the Tak properties, located
adjacent to the emerging Woodjam copper-gold-molybdenum porphyry camp. We have a
lot of targets to test, as well as continuing with systematic exploration
programs on other untested areas of the large tenement package."
