Alpha Minerals JV Reports Assays of 17.5m of 5.98% U3O8 (Grade Thickness of 104.65) Including 5.5m of 19.51% U3O8 at R00E Zon...

Alpha Minerals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:AMW)(FRANKFURT:E2GA), (the "Company" or
"Alpha"), and its 50% Joint Venture partner Fission Uranium Corp are pleased to
report assay results from four holes drilled in the R00E zone at their Patterson
Lake South (PLS) property, Saskatchewan. Of particular note is hole PLS13-079
which returned 17.5m of 5.98% U3O8 including 5.5m of 19.51% U3O8. Located
approximately 10m south of hole PLS13-059 (20.0m of 8.57% U308 - See News
Release dated May 27, 2013), the hole expands the high grade southern area of
Zone R00E on line 015E. 


Holes PLS13-074, PLS13-076, PLS13-077 and PLS13-079 all returned considerable
mineralization. The mineralized east-west strike length of the R00E zone has now
been increased to 165m (PLS13-074 on line 075W to PLS13-032 on line 090E). The
Zone remains open in all directions.


Assay Highlights

PLS13-079 (line 015E)



--  17.5m (83.0m to 100.5m) of 5.98% U3O8, including: 
--  5.5m (91.5m to 97.0m) of 19.51% U308 



PLS13-077 (Line 00W)



--  11.5m (59.0m to 70.5m) of 0.39% U3O8 (Upper Zone) 
--  15.5m (73.0m to 88.5m) of 0.13% U3O8 (Lower Zone) 



Composited U3O8 mineralized intervals are summarized in Table 1 below. Samples
from the drill core are split in half on site. Where possible, samples are
standardized at 0.5m down-hole intervals. One-half of the split sample is sent
to the laboratory for analysis and the other half remains on site for reference.
All depth measurements reported, including sample and interval widths are
down-hole, core interval measurements and true thickness are yet to be
determined.

Composite Parameters



1.  Minimum Thickness: 0.50m 
2.  Grade Cut-off: 0.05 U3O8 (wt%) 
3.  Maximum Internal Dilution: 2.00m 



Drillhole PLS13-074 (line 075W) was collared as a vertical hole and was
completed at a depth of 203.0m. A 2.5m wide mineralized zone (65.0m to 67.5m)
returned a composite interval of 0.13% U3O8. This mineralization represents the
western-most extent of the R00E zone to date. Further drilling on this line is
required to determine if the high-grade mineralization seen on line 060W
continues to line 075W.


Drillhole PLS13-076 (line 015W) was collared as a vertical hole and was
completed at a depth of 267.0m. Three zones of mineralization were intersected
approximately 7m to the southwest of mineralization in hole PLS13-037: 2.0m of
0.09% U3O8 (178.5m - 180.5m), 1.5m of 0.08% U3O8 (183.0m to 184.5m) and 4.5m of
0.16% U3O8 (186.5m to 191.0m). Mineralized intervals in hole PLS13-076 are the
southern-most occurrences on line 015W and are approximately 100m deeper than
those intersected in holes on the same line immediately to the north. This may
represent mineralization in the hanging-wall from a lithologic contact parallel
structure which feeds the approximately flat-lying mineralization to the north.


Drillhole PLS13-077 (line 00W) was collared as a vertical hole and was completed
to a depth of 259.5m. The hole was drilled approximately 8m to the north of hole
PLS12-023. Two zones of mineralization were intersected: 11.5m of 0.39% U3O8
(59.0m - 70.5m) and 15.5m of 0.13%U3O8 (73.0m to 88.5m). These intervals
represent the northern-most mineralization on line 00W. Mineralization on line
00W has now been delineated over a north-south width of 30m (PLS13-077 to
PLS12-016).


Drillhole PLS13-079 (line 015E) was collared at an azimuth of 028 degrees and a
dip of -75 degrees and completed to a depth of 218.0m. The hole tested for
mineralization approximately 10m grid south of PLS13-054 (11.5m of 0.28% U3O8).
A well developed interval of strong mineralization was intersected from 83.0m -
100.5m and returned a composited interval of 5.98% U3O8 over 17.5m, including a
high-grade core (91.5m - 97.0m) that returned 19.51% U3O8 over 5.5m. This
high-grade intersection extends the high-grade mineralization intersected in
hole PLS13-059 from a further 10m to the south and continues to open up the
potential of this area which has not been fully drill tested.

Patterson Lake South Property

The 31,000 hectare (76,000 acres) PLS project project is a 50%/50% Joint Venture
held by Alpha Minerals Inc (AMW) and Fission Uranium (FCU). The Joint Venture
property is 100% owned with no underlying royalties or vendor payments. For the
present work, the exploration is still being operated as a Joint Venture under
the direction of the Joint Venture Management Committee with Fission Uranium
acting as the operator. Drilling on Land SW of Discovery Zone R00E continues:
Additional funding, designed to extend the land based drilling programme beyond
the original budget limits, is showing encouraging initial results, following
the closure of the barge based drilling programme.


The property is accessible by road with primary access from all-weather Highway
955, which runs 74km north to the former Cluff Lake mine, (greater than 60M lbs
of U3O8 produced from multiple open pit and underground mines), and passes
through the claims covering the UEX-Areva Shea Creek discoveries located 58km to
the north, currently under active exploration and development.
