Kivalliq Energy Corporation (TSX VENTURE:KIV) ("Kivalliq") today announced
significant assay results from six of seven diamond drill holes at the
newly-discovered "Hot Zone". The Hot Zone is located on a two kilometre long
geophysical target within the Lac 50 Trend, drilled late in the season as part
of the 2012 exploration program at the 252,830 acre Angilak Property in Nunavut,
Canada.




Hot Zone Highlights

--  Highlight assay results from the Hot Zone include: 
    --  0.6 metres of 0.37% U3O8, 0.70% Mo and 88.4 g/t Ag in HOT-12-003 
    --  3.0 metres of 0.85% U3O8, 0.53% Mo and 56.2 g/t Ag in HOT-12-004 
    --  0.6 metres of 0.53% U3O8, 0.21% Mo and 87.9 g/t Ag in HOT-12-005
--  1,292 metres of core drilling in seven holes intersected significant
    uranium over 150 metres of strike length 
--  The two kilometre long Hot electromagnetic ("EM") geophysical anomaly is
    located within the Lac 50 Trend, parallel to, and 1.8 kilometres
    northeast of the Lac Cinquante Deposit 
--  Hot Zone remains open along strike in both directions and at depth



Hot Zone: Fifth Mineralized Zone Discovered in 2012 within Prospective Lac 50 Trend

"Discoveries such as the Hot Zone continue to add momentum to our exploration
efforts at the Angilak Property. This is the tenth discovery since 2010 and the
fifth uranium zone discovered by drilling this season, within the Lac 50 Trend,"
stated Kivalliq's President, Jeff Ward. "We look forward to assay results from
the remaining 86 holes prior to year end, including 67 holes from the J4 and Ray
zones."


On September 24, 2012, Kivalliq announced the completion of an aggressive
exploration program, which included 38,856 metres of core and reverse
circulation ("RC") drilling focused on adding inferred resources and testing new
mineralized target areas within the Lac 50 Trend. The Lac 50 Trend is a three
kilometre wide by 15 kilometre long southeast striking structural trend within
Archean volcanic rocks adjacent to an unconformity with Proterozoic sediments of
the Angikuni sub-basin. In addition to the Lac Cinquante Uranium Deposit, the
Lac 50 Trend is host to ten significant uranium occurrences discovered by
Kivalliq since 2010. The Hot Zone is the most recent of these, and one of five
new uranium discoveries drilled this season. Our exploration work and the
identification of new mineralized zones like the Hot Zone continue to validate
the "District Scale" potential of the Angilak Property.


Seven core holes totaling 1,292 metres were drilled along a 150 metre segment of
the two kilometre long Hot EM conductor. Drilling, from three sites spaced 50
and 100 metres apart, was at an azimuth of 026 degrees (NNE) and inclinations
ranging from -45 degrees to -88 degrees. Anomalous mineralization was
intersected in six of the seven holes, over down-hole core interval between 0.3
and 3.0 metres, and at depths between 30 and 170 vertical metres. Uranium
mineralization is associated with quartz-carbonate alteration and veining
containing 1-2% disseminated sulphides in sheared basalt and a quartz feldspar
porphyry.

(i)  All samples are subjected to ICP1 Analysis by Saskatchewan Research
     Council Geoanalytical Laboratories"SRC" in Saskatoon, Canada. ICP1
     results greater than 1,000 ppm U are subjected to SRC U3O8 Assay; ICP1
     results for Cu, Mo and Ag are reported by SRC in parts per million
     (ppm). 1 ppm = 1gm/t, 10,000 ppm = 1%; Intervals include ICP U analysis
     in ppm converted to U3O8%. Conversion to U3O8% = ppm x 0.01179.
(ii) Down-hole core interval. True widths cannot be estimated at this time.

Hole 12-HOT-001 did not intersect significant mineralization.

The fourth quarter of 2012 will be dedicated to initial metallurgical and
engineering studies, technical analysis and resource modeling with the goal of
identifying new target areas and updating the NI 43-101 mineral resource by the
end of Q1, 2013.


QA/QC

Half-spilt NQ core samples from Angilak Property drill holes having anomalous
radioactivity levels above 200 cps were sent to the Saskatchewan Research
Council Geoanalytical Laboratories ("SRC") for analysis. All samples were
analyzed for U3O8 and a multi-element suite. The SRC facility operates in
accordance with ISO/IEC 17025:2005 (CAN-P-4E), General Requirements for the
Competence of Mineral Testing and Calibration laboratories and is accredited by
the Standards Council of Canada. The samples are first analyzed by SRC's ICP-OES
multi-element Uranium exploration ICP1 method. The method analyzes for
multi-elements including Ag, Mo, Cu, Pb, Zn and a suite of rare earth elements.
ICP results Ugreater than 1,000 parts per million (ppm) are analyzed using SRC's
ISO/IEC 17025:2005-accredited U3O8 Assay method. Laboratory quality control (QC)
includes a repeat analysis on every 20th sample. Repeat samples had good
reproducibility. Kivalliq's quality assurance and quality control procedures
include the systematic insertion of blanks and standards into the drill core
sample string. All QA/QC results were within expectations.
