NEWS RELEASE
Fjordland and Serengeti Expand QUEST Project and Complete
Additional Airborne Surveys
Vancouver, B.C., March 31, 2008 � Fjordland
Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: FEX) and its 50%-50% joint venture partner
Serengeti Resources Inc. (TSX-V: SIR) report that they have acquired by staking an
additional four properties (Oy, Mil, Inz and Duk) and expanded one (Tezz),
northwest of Fort St. James, as a result of the release of geophysical and
geochemical data by Geoscience BC on January 28, 2008 during the Mineral Exploration Roundup meeting in Vancouver. The QUEST joint venture project now
consists of 20 copper-gold properties encompassing in excess of 115,000
hectares. All properties lie within the highly endowed and prospective Quesnel
Terrane.
As reported January 23, 2008, results from 6,624
line-kilometres of airborne magnetometer surveys over the initial 16 properties
within the joint venture project area have led to the prioritization of 11
targets for follow-up ground induced polarization (IP) surveys. Permits have
been received for fieldwork on these from the BC government and the IP surveying
is scheduled to commence the first week of April. The initial joint venture
budget for 2008 is $600,000 and is estimated to include approximately 120
line-kilometres of ground IP surveys, as well as an additional 600
line-kilometres of airborne magnetometer surveys which were completed during
February and March 2008.
David Moore, President & CEO of Serengeti,
comments "We are very pleased to have identified numerous targets for follow-up
ground surveying within the QUEST JV area of interest. North of the QUEST area,
Serengeti has discovered the significant Kwanika copper-gold deposit in part as
a result of drilling of airborne and ground geophysical surveys that identified
new targets, especially in areas devoid of outcrop. We hope to utilize our
expertise gained at Kwanika in the discovery of more buried deposits in this
vastly under-explored region of the Quesnel Trough."
On March 1 2008, Fjordland assumed management of
the QUEST project as stipulated in the Companies� joint venture agreement, which
provides for operatorship to rotate on an annual basis.
