La Ronge Gold Corp. ("La Ronge" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:LAR) is pleased
to announce that it has entered into a letter of intent to acquire the assets
and business of a private company producing frac sand in the Western Canada
Sedimentary basin. The company currently sells into the Canadian frac sand
market and has fixed sales contracts with various oil and gas service providers
in Canada. Frac sands are a proppant used in hydraulic fracturing (fracking).


The acquisition is at arm's length and is expected to constitute a fundamental
acquisition. The acquisition contemplates a cash purchase price of $4,500,000,
subject to standard industry adjustments. Completion of the transaction is
subject to the parties negotiating a formal purchase and sale agreement
containing standard industry terms and conditions, including required board,
shareholder and regulatory approvals, on or before April 7, 2014. The
transaction remains subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory
approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. In connection
with the acquisition, La Ronge expects to conduct a financing of approximately
$7m to fund the acquisition and capital investments and to provide for general
working capital.


La Ronge is also pleased to announce the appointment of Leonard D. Jaroszuk to
its board of directors. Mr. Jaroszuk has been involved in and managed a number
of public companies engaged in real estate, construction, natural resources and
exploration over the past 28 years. Mr. Jaroszuk is the Chairman of Enterprise
Group, Inc. (TSX:E), which is a growing consolidator of profitable businesses
providing services to the utility, energy and infrastructure construction
sectors. Mr. Jaroszuk currently serves as a director on several oil and gas,
service and manufacturing companies. La Ronge also announces that Alan Campbell
will be leaving its board on March 17, 2014.


La Ronge's President & CEO, Rasool Mohammad commented, "we value this
opportunity of getting involved in the energy-services-sector and we believe
there is a significant upside potential. We welcome Leonard Jaroszuk to the
board and look forward to his guidance. La Ronge would like to thank Mr. Alan
Campbell for his services to the company."


La Ronge also wishes to announce that it has acquired by staking, two blocks of
claims in north central Saskatchewan. The Amisk Lake block, which is located
about 30 km southwest of Creighton, has potential for near surface frac sand
resources. A geophysical survey is being planned for March 2014 that will help
determine the presence and thickness of favourable sand strata. The
Deschambeault Lake block is located along the southeast shore of Deschambeault
Lake, about 35 km southwest of the recently announced discovery of
diamondiferous kimberlite bodies, and has also potential for frac sand
resources. A till sampling program is planned for this property this summer.
