Fjordland Exploration Inc. (TSX VENTURE:FEX) and Serengeti Resources Inc. (TSX
VENTURE:SIR) are pleased to announce that they have consolidated their adjoining
Milligan South (100% FEX) and Mil (SIR-65%/FEX-35%) properties into a single
project (50%/50% JV), "Milligan West" (the "Property"), via an amendment to the
previous QUEST Joint Venture agreement, dated February 21, 2008 between
Fjordland and Serengeti. The Property, comprising 15,736 hectares (ha), is
located approximately 160 kilometres (km) northwest of Prince George, BC, and
adjoins the western boundary of Thompson Creek Metals Ltd's Mt. Milligan
copper-gold project, which is scheduled to commence production later this year,
following a capital investment estimated at $1.5 billion.


Previous work on the Mil property (part of the QUEST JV) included airborne
magnetic, ground induced polarization (IP) surveys, geochemical soil surveys, as
well as three shallow diamond drill holes in 2009 totaling 790 metres (m).
Drilling tested a very small proportion of a very large (22 km by 2-3 km)
coincident IP chargeability and magnetic anomaly. One drill hole bottomed in a
strongly altered zone that assayed 0.15% Cu over the final 6 m. In addition,
soil survey results yielded coincident copper and gold anomalies. Additional
drilling is warranted.


Previous work on the Milligan South included airborne magnetic, ground IP
surveys, geochemical soil surveys, as well as two very shallow diamond drill
holes totaling 230 m by a prior operator. Drilling tested two of three separate,
coincident magnetic and IP anomalies, along with coincident copper and gold soil
anomalies. The Companies believe that the drilling may not have intersected the
target and that additional drilling is warranted.


Fjordland and Serengeti are currently compiling all previous exploration data
for the Mil and Milligan South properties into a single database for the
Property. In light of the current market conditions, the Companies have elected
to seek a Joint Venture partner to advance the consolidated Project.


Tom Schroeter, President & CEO of Fjordland, commented, "This consolidation of
the respective properties into a single entity now provides an attractive
exploration package available for immediate joint venture in the high-profile
Mt. Milligan camp. Fjordland and Serengeti have spent the past six years
assembling and exploring for copper-gold porphyry targets in the area and are
well experienced in the techniques required for the discovery of additional
deposits in this developing camp."
