Southern Arc Files Technical Report and Updated Mineral Resource Statement for Windfall Lake Gold Project

Southern Arc Minerals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SA)(OTCQX:SOACF) ("Southern Arc" or the
"Company") today filed a Technical Report pursuant to the Canadian Securities
Administrators' National Instrument 43-101 and Form 43-101F1 regarding an
updated resource estimate for the Windfall Lake Gold Project, located in the
Abitibi Gold Belt approximately 200 km northeast of Val d'Or, Quebec. The
resource estimate and technical report were completed by SRK Consulting (Canada)
Inc. ("SRK"). The technical report is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on
the Company's website at www.southernarcminerals.com.


In August 2013, Southern Arc acquired a 26.14% interest in Eagle Hill by way of
a private placement; the Company has since purchased additional shares. As of
July 17, 2014, Southern Arc owned 26.25% of Eagle Hill's issued and outstanding
shares and 30.86% of Eagle Hill on a fully diluted basis. Since Windfall Lake is
considered a material property for Southern Arc, Southern Arc is required to
file a technical report for the property pursuant to section 4.2.(1)(j)(i) of
National Instrument 43-101 and Sections 4.2(3)-(5) of the Companion Policy of
National Instrument 43-101. The report filed by Southern Arc today is a
duplicate of the technical report prepared by SRK for Eagle Hill and filed by
Eagle Hill on SEDAR on April 17, 2014.


As announced by Eagle Hill on March 3, 2014, SRK has estimated an indicated
mineral resource for the Windfall Lake Gold Project of 2,375,000 tonnes grading
9.75 g/t gold for contained gold of 744,000 ounces, with an additional inferred
mineral resource estimated at 3,084,000 tonnes grading 7.37 g/t gold for
contained gold of 731,000 ounces. Compared to the previous mineral resource
estimate completed in July 2012, the indicated mineral resource tonnage and
contained gold have increased by 43% and 38%, respectively. The indicated grade
of 9.75 g/t gold makes Windfall Lake one of the highest-grade resource-stage
gold projects in the world, located in one of the world's best mining
jurisdictions.

1.  Prepared by SRK Consulting (Canada), Inc. with an effective date of
    March 3, 2014. 
2.  Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated
    economic viability. There is 
    no certainty that all or any part of the mineral resources will be
    converted into mineral reserves. 
3.  All figures have been rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the
    estimates. 
4.  Reported at a cut-off grade of 3.0 g/t gold, assuming an underground
    extraction scenario, a gold price of US$1,200 per ounce and
    metallurgical recovery of 91.7% achieved on a 10.4 g/t gold test
    composite. 



The Windfall Lake property database contains 706 core boreholes, drilled between
1986 and 2013. Of these, 635 boreholes (179,641 metres) were completed between
1996 and 2013 and were considered for geological and mineral resource modelling.
In reviewing the results of the mineral resource modelling work, SRK drew the
following conclusions:




--  Infill and step-out drilling, as well as re-logging archived core and
    structural geology investigations, particularly in the Main Zone, have
    vastly improved the confidence in the geological and mineralization
    model and the confidence in the continuity of the gold mineralization; 
--  There is good potential to expand the mineral resources along strike to
    the southwest. The new geological model suggests that the pyrite
    stockwork containing the bulk of the Main Zone continues in this
    direction, and core boreholes from the Fall 2013 drill program
    intersected gold mineralization in this area; 
--  There is also good potential to expand the mineral resources at depth
    below the Red Dog dike. Drilling completed in 2013 confirms that the
    pyrite stockwork extends below the Red Dog dike, where the gold
    mineralization exhibits grade and thickness characteristics similar to
    that found near surface. In addition, the Fall 2013 deep hole-to-hole
    induced polarization survey identified two high priority targets below
    the Red Dog dike, near the known intercepts. 



The mineral resources identified to date occupy only a small footprint within
the Windfall Lake property and the gold mineralized zones are open at depth, to
the northeast and southwest along the main deformation corridor identified by
Eagle Hill. SRK recommended a work program that includes:




--  Drilling within the Main Zone to target areas below the Red Dog dike; 
--  Drilling to test the strike extension of the known gold mineralization
    to the southwest; 
--  A hole-to-hole induced polarization survey using proposed deep boreholes
    as survey platforms to maximize the investigation for additional gold
    mineralization at depth; and 
--  Environmental baseline, permitting, metallurgical, geotechnical,
    conceptual mining, and other engineering studies required to evaluate
    the conceptual economic viability of a mining project. 



Windfall Lake 2014 Drill Program and Preliminary Economic Assessment Study

On June 24, 2014, Eagle Hill released the results of its 3,333-metre 2014 winter
drill program, and announced that the Company intends to complete a 2,800-metre
drill program in the summer of 2014, targeting the extension of mineralization
to the northeast below the Red Dog dike. Eagle Hill plans to deepen six existing
boreholes in a target zone that is currently untested. Eagle Hill also plans to
undertake additional hole-to-hole IP survey to define further drill targets at
depth. Geological studies indicate that the gold mineralization hosted by Zone
27 and the Caribou Zone may have been displaced laterally as much as 600 metres
below the Red Dog dike, which coincides with a hole-to-hole IP anomaly
identified below Red Dog.


Eagle Hill also announced that its Board of Directors has approved the
initiation of a Preliminary Economic Assessment Study for the Windfall Lake Gold
Project. Eagle Hill's Board of Directors has determined that completing the
environmental, engineering and economic studies associated with a Preliminary
Economic Assessment Study will provide further clarity on the potential of
advancing the Windfall Lake Gold Project to production.

About Eagle Hill Exploration and the Windfall Lake Gold Project

Eagle Hill Exploration Corporation is a Canadian mineral exploration company
focused on the exploration and development of the high-grade Windfall Lake gold
deposit, located between Val-d'Or and Chibougamau in Quebec, Canada. The current
mineral resource comprises 2,375,000 tonnes at 9.75 g/t gold (744,000 ounces) in
the indicated category and 3,084,000 tonnes at 7.37 g/t gold (731,000 ounces) in
the inferred category (Technical Report for the Windfall Lake Gold Project,
Quebec prepared by SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc., dated March 3, 2014). These
grades make Windfall Lake one of the highest grade resource-stage gold projects
in the world. The bulk of the mineralization occurs in the Main Zone, a

Qualified Person

The technical information in this document has been reviewed by Southern Arc's
President & Chief Operating Officer, Dr. Mike Andrews, PhD, FAusIMM, who has
sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralization under
consideration and qualifies as a Qualified Person as defined by National
Instrument 43-101. The technical information in this document has also been
reviewed by Eagle Hill's Vice President Exploration, Jean-Philippe Desrochers,
PhD, PGeo, who has sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralization
under consideration and qualifies as a Qualified Person as defined by National
Instrument 43-101. The drill program and sampling protocol is managed by Eagle
Hill under the supervision of Jean-Philippe Desrochers. Core boreholes are
drilled at NQ sizes and core recovery to date has averaged better than 95.0%.
Half core is cut by rock saw and is generally sampled using nominal 1-metre
intervals; however, sample intervals vary according to geological contacts and
have ranged between 0.3 to 1.5 metres in length. Two quality control samples
(one blank and one certified reference material) are inserted into each batch of
20 samples. All assays were performed by ALS Chemex Laboratory Group, in Val
d'Or, Quebec. The half core samples are securely transported from the project
site to the ALS Chemex laboratory by Eagle Hill personnel. Gold analyses
reported in this release were performed by standard fire assay using a 50-gram
charge with atomic absorption finish and a gravimetric finish for assays greater
than 10 grams per tonne and by metallic sieve method for samples containing
significant amounts of pyrite or visible gold. In addition, an Aqua regia
digestion with ICP-AES finish is used to analyse a full suite of elements
including silver and base metals.
