Advanced Explorations Inc. (the "Company" or "AEI") (TSX
VENTURE:AXI)(FRANKFURT:AE6) today announced that it has completed a summary
report on its Tuktu 2 Iron Project (the "Report") located 60 km north of its
flagship Roche Bay Iron Project. The Report, which was compiled in consultation
with APEX Geoscience Ltd., has now been submitted to XinXing Pipes Group Co.
Ltd. ("XDIP") for comment and review pursuant to the recently signed Tuktu
Framework Agreement between AEI and XDIP (the "Framework Agreement") (see press
release August 21, 2012). In line with AEI's obligations under the Framework
Agreement, the Report summarizes this year's exploration, mapping and drilling
program completed for the purpose of evaluating the direct-ship ore ("DSO")
potential of the high grade banded iron formation in this area. This Report is a
necessary step in the future funding of the Tuktu 2 Project by XDIP under the
Framework Agreement.


Over the course of this year's field season, the Company conducted several
exploration programs to further validate the DSO potential of the Tuktu 2 area
after a surface sampling program in 2011 returned high grade iron samples from
outcrops with results exceeding 60% iron content. 


The exploration and drill program completed in late October confirmed the
existence of DSO-type material at the Tuktu 2-H occurrence (see press release
November 26th, 2012: hole 12TK007 returned intersections of 58.8% Fe over 63.9
metres including 66.3% Fe over 37.5 metres) to the east of the original showing
(Tuktu 2-A) where similar material was also confirmed in drill core. In its
Report, the Company has suggested to its partner that additional drilling is
warranted to fully assess the DSO resource potential of the Tuktu-2 high grade
mineral occurrences. It has also recommended continuing exploration for
additional occurrences including a re-examination of the Roche Bay area.


John Gingerich, President & CEO, commented:

"We have made tremendous progress in understanding the high grade iron potential
at the Tuktu 2 area and have had detailed discussions with our Chinese partner
over the past month on how to best proceed with the exploration of this asset
and a joint development plan for both the Roche Bay and Tuktu 2 projects. We are
encouraged by these recent discussions and confident that we can deliver a plan
that is to the utmost benefit of all parties."

ABOUT Advanced Explorations Inc. 

Advanced Explorations Inc., based in Toronto, Ontario, is a resource development
company focused on developing its Roche Bay and Tuktu Iron Ore Projects in one
of the world's largest developing iron ore districts, the Melville Peninsula in
Nunavut. The Ocean-based Roche Bay Project boasts an NI 43-101 compliant
resource estimate of over 500 million tonnes outlined within a small portion of
the potential 140 km of banded iron formation. A positive feasibility study for
the project's C Zone revealed a net present value of $642M on a base case 5.5
Mtpa start-up concentrate operation and substantial upside potential including
becoming a low quartile cost producer. To date, the Company has delineated over
1 billion tonnes of iron under NI 43-101 among its Roche Bay and Tuktu deposits
and continues to explore other targeted deposits in areas to the north, south
and west of Roche Bay. The management team has extensive technical, exploration
and Canadian Arctic mining expertise to effectively develop the high quality
iron ore opportunities on the Melville Peninsula.
