DESCRIPTION

KIVALLIQ ENERGY CORPORATION (KIV: TSX-V) is a uranium exploration and developmentcompany based in Vancouver, Canada and the first company to sign a comprehensive agreement to explore for uraniumon Inuit Owned Lands in Nunavut Territory, Canada. With a NI 43-101 Inferred Resource of 27.13 million pounds at 0.69%U3O8, the Lac Cinquante Deposit is Canada's highest grade uranium deposit outside of the Athabasca Basin. Kivalliq'sflagship project, the 225,000 acre Angilak Property in Nunavut, hosts the high-grade Lac Cinquante deposit, along withmultiple, highly mineralized target areas.Since acquiring the Angilak Property in 2008, the Company has invested approximately $30 million conductingsystematic exploration, including ground and airborne geophysics, geological mapping, prospecting and 48,000 metresof drilling. Kivalliq's team of northern exploration specialists has forged strong relationships with sophisticated resourcesector investors and project partner Nunavut Tunngavik Inc. ("NTI") to advance the Angilak Property. e Company isfocused on building shareholder value while adhering to a high level of environmental and safety standards and proactivelocal community engagement. | visit www.kivalliqenergy.com

• The Mineral Resource estimate for Lac Cinquante was prepared under the direction of Robert Sim P.Geo., of SIM Geological Inc. A resource model was generated using drill sample assay results from Kivalliq's 2009, 2010, and 2011 field seasons (up to December 31, 2011), and interpretation of a geological model relating to spatial distribution of uranium. At a base case cut-off grade of 0.2% U3O8, an Inferred Mineral Resource is estimated at 1,779,000 tonnes averaging 0.69% U3O8, containing 27.13 MlbsU3O8. For evaluation purposes, three additional metals: 931,100 oz silver, 6.17 Mlbs molybdenum and 9.92 Mlbs copper have also been estimated within the resource model at a 0.2% cut-off.

economic viability, and may never be converted into Reserves. • Contained metal values may not add due to rounding.
