Woulfe Mining Corp. (TSX VENTURE:WOF)(OTCQX:WFEMF)(FRANKFURT:OZ4) ("Woulfe" or
the "Company") -
Woulfe Mining Corp. reports that as a result of a review by the British Columbia
Securities Commission (BCSC), it is issuing the following news release to
clarify, retract, restate and update certain of its previously issued investor
relations presentations, reports and disclosures on its website
www.woulfemining.com.
The Company's website, including a corporate presentation, a fact sheet and
investor's guide (the "Materials"), contained the following information, none of
which invalidates any portion of, or requires any amendment in relation to, the
Company's feasibility study on the Sangdong property as published June 6, 2012:
-- The Company's website and November 2012 Investor Guide (the "Guide")
disclosed 2010 mineral resource estimates, completed as part of a
scoping study (the "2010 Scoping Study"). The 2010 Scoping Study and
mineral resource estimates have been superseded by a feasibility study
on the Sangdong property having an effective date of June 6, 2012 and
entitled "Sangdong Project Feasibility Study" (the "Feasibility Study").
The Feasibility Study was authored by TetraTech WEI Inc. and is
available on the Company's SEDAR profile. It reports a Probable Reserve
of 13.3 Mt @ 0.425% WO3 with a cut-off grade of 0.24% WO3. The
Feasibility Study did not contain a complete mineral resource update,
but converted a prior reported Indicated Resource of 16.4 Mt.@ 0.45% WO3
with a cut-off of 0.15% WO3 to the Probable Reserve reported above. The
prior resource estimates on the Sangdong property, including the
Indicated Resource referenced above, had an effective date of January
24, 2012 and were included in a report entitled "Sangdong Project
Resource Estimate" authored by Wardrop, TetraTech WEI Inc (the "2012
Resource Report"). The 2012 Resource Report is available on the
Company's SEDAR profile. The mineral resource estimates contained in the
2012 Resource Report are stated in the table below, noting that the
Feasibility Study has converted the Indicated Resource to a Probable
Reserve. It should be noted that the 2012 Resource Report states that
the 2010 mineral resource estimates were made on a very different basis
to the current (2012) estimates. The 2010 resource estimates largely
relied on holes drilled underground by Korea Tungsten Mining Corporation
and on a coarse geological interpretation of the mineralized zones.
Because of doubts attaching to the location and sample quality control
of these underground holes, and the limited geological understanding at
the time, the 2010 mineral resources were classified in the Inferred
category. The 2012 resource estimates rely entirely on modern drilling
programmes with associated sample quality control. The modern data,
however, covers only approximately the upper quarter of the known dip-
length of the mineralized zones. For this reason, comparisons between
the 2012 and 2010 mineral resource estimates should be treated with
caution.

(ii) Indicated Resources was converted to a Probable Reserve in the
Feasibility Study.
The resource is split into two sections by elevation, representing the
down dip potential of the deposit below current waterline.
The only current mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates that
have been approved by or on behalf of the Company in relation to the
Sangdong property are as stated above in the 2012 Resource Report and
the Feasibility Study.
-- The website and Materials contained aggregated resource numbers which
added Inferred Resources to other categories of resources in respect of
the Sangdong property, or which used a category of mineral resources,
specifically "mineable resource", not permitted by NI 43-101 in respect
of the Muguk property.
-- The website and Materials discloses the results of economic analyses
from the Company's feasibility study which may be misleading and/or
unbalanced as the website and Material only reference pre-tax results
without disclosing the comparative post-tax results. Investors are
strongly encouraged to review the Feasibility Study in full.
-- The Guide contained a reference to historical, non-43-101 compliant,
resource estimates for the Sangdong Moly Stockwork. A non-NI 43-101
compliant historical resource estimate for molybdenum at the Sangdong
property was reported by Korea Engineering Co. Ltd. in 2001 and a memo
of Paul Matthews and Heywood Bates in 2008. A Qualified Person has not
completed sufficient work in order to classify historical resource
estimates for molybdenum on the Sangdong property as current mineral
resources and the Company is not treating these historical estimates as
prepared by Korea Engineering Co. Ltd. or Paul Matthews and Heywood
Bates or otherwise as current mineral resources but as historical
estimates. They are for informational purposes only and should not be
relied upon.
-- The website and Materials incorrectly references a 0.20% cut-off in
relation to the 2012 resource estimates, where a 0.15% cut-off was used,
as outlined above.
-- The website and Materials failed to properly identify, and disclose the
relationship to the Company, of the Qualified Person who approved,
prepared or supervised the preparation of the technical information
within. The Company has added this disclosure to its website and the
Materials.
The Company retracts all non-compliant disclosures as referenced above and has
amended the website and Materials to remove such disclosures, including the
Guide which will be updated at a later date. The Company plans to complete a
more comprehensive re-launch of the Company's website in the future.
In those instances where the Company has retracted, revised, clarified or
updated previous disclosure, the Company advises readers not to rely on such
statements as they may continue to be found in the public domain.
Patrick Roger Stephenson, P.Geo., of AMC Mining Consultants (Canada) Ltd., an
independent consultant to the Company, is the Qualified Person under National
Instrument 43-101 who has approved the technical content of this news release.
