The Board of Directors of Huntington Exploration Inc. ("HEI" or the "Company")
(TSX VENTURE:HEI) is pleased to announce that effective March 1, 2012, HEI has
acquired all of the mineral rights and related assets of an arm's length private
company operating in central Alberta, subject to final approval of the TSX
Venture Exchange. The assets include (60 BOE/d) of net production and a
portfolio of numerous prospects with working interests ranging from 37.5% to
100% on net acreage of approximately 36 sections. Under the terms of the
purchase agreement, HEI paid the vendor the purchase price of $1,750,000 in
cash, and in that regard has arranged short term debt financing of $1,000,000,
payable at 8% interest.


Hydrocarbon potential is oil-weighted for the subject lands, although natural
gas is also a significant secondary target. This acquisition will provide
Huntington with access to numerous drill-ready oil prospects, encouraging an
aggressive operational program. Capital costs associated with developing these
shallow petroleum-bearing reservoirs are low, well-suited to Huntington's
business model. 


HEI is an exploration-focused company actively pursuing opportunities in the oil
and natural gas business in the Western Canada sedimentary basin.


Barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) may be misleading, particularly if used in
isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet (Mcf) of natural
gas to one barrel (bbl) of oil is based on an energy conversion method primarily
applicable at the burner tip and is not intended to represent a value
equivalency at the wellhead.
