Comments on Quebec Uranium Study

NR:13-04

Virginia Energy Resources Inc. (TSX.V: VUI; OTCQX: VEGYF) ("Virginia Energy" or the "Company") has learned that the Government of Quebec will conduct an impact study on the exploration and development of uranium in the province. The Bureau d'audiences publiques sur l'environnement (BAPE) has been given a mandate to conduct the study starting next fall. In the meantime, the Government says that no certificate of authorization will be issued for the exploration or development of uranium in Quebec until the study is completed.

Further exploration on Virginia Energy's Otish Mountains uranium project will remain on hold while the Quebec government undertakes this evaluation. However, Virginia Energy is confident that this study will show that uranium exploration and mining can be done safely and in a way that protects the environment, as has been demonstrated by decades of uranium mining experience in Saskatchewan, and similar recent studies around the world.
