Eagle Hill Exploration Corporation (TSX VENTURE:EAG)(OTCQX:EHECF) ("Eagle Hill"
or the "Company") is pleased to report that on April 17 the Company filed a
National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report regarding the resource estimate for
its Windfall Lake Gold Project, located in the Abitibi Gold Belt approximately
200 km northeast of Val d'Or, Quebec. The resource estimate and technical report
were completed by SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. ("SRK"). The technical report is
available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on the Company's website at
www.eaglehillexploration.com.


As previously announced on March 3, 2014, SRK has estimated an indicated mineral
resource for the Windfall Lake Gold Project of 2,375,000 tonnes grading 9.75 g/t
gold for contained gold of 744,000 ounces, with an additional inferred mineral
resource estimated at 3,084,000 tonnes grading 7.37 g/t gold for contained gold
of 731,000 ounces. Compared to the previous mineral resource estimate completed
in July 2012, the indicated mineral resource tonnage and contained gold have
increased by 43% and 38%, respectively. The indicated grade of 9.75 g/t gold
makes Windfall Lake one of the highest-grade resource-stage gold projects in the
world, located in one of the world's best mining jurisdictions.


The following information in this section of the press release is taken directly
from the Windfall Lake technical report.

1.  Prepared by SRK Consulting (Canada), Inc. with an effective date of
    March 3, 2014. 
2.  Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated
    economic viability. There is 
    no certainty that all or any part of the mineral resources will be
    converted into mineral reserves. 
3.  All figures have been rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the
    estimates. 
4.  Reported at a cut-off grade of 3.0 g/t gold, assuming an underground
    extraction scenario, a gold price of US$1,200 per ounce and
    metallurgical recovery of 91.7%.



The Windfall Lake property database contains 706 core boreholes, drilled between
1986 and 2013. Of these, 635 boreholes (179,641 metres) were completed between
1996 and 2013 and were considered for geological and mineral resource modelling.
In reviewing the results of the mineral resource modelling work, SRK drew the
following conclusions:




--  Infill and step-out drilling, as well as re-logging archived core and
    structural geology investigations, particularly in the Main Zone, have
    vastly improved the confidence in the geological and mineralization
    model and the confidence in the continuity of the gold mineralization; 
--  There is good potential to expand the mineral resources along strike to
    the southwest. The new geological model suggests that the pyrite
    stockwork containing the bulk of the Main Zone continues in this
    direction, and core boreholes from the Fall 2013 drill program
    intersected gold mineralization in this area; 
--  There is also good potential to expand the mineral resources at depth
    below the Red Dog dike. Drilling completed in 2013 confirms that the
    pyrite stockwork extends below the Red Dog dike, where the gold
    mineralization exhibits grade and thickness characteristics similar to
    that found near surface. In addition, the Fall 2013 deep hole-to-hole
    induced polarization survey identified two high priority targets below
    the Red Dog dike, near the known intercepts.



The mineral resources identified to date occupy only a small footprint within
the Windfall Lake property and the gold mineralized zones are open at depth, to
the northeast and southwest along the main deformation corridor identified by
Eagle Hill. Exploration outside of the extents of the current modelled
mineralization should be considered.


SRK recommended a work program that includes: 



--  Drilling within the Main Zone targeting areas below the Red Dog dike; 
--  Drilling to test the strike extension of the known gold mineralization
    to the southwest; 
--  A hole-to-hole induced polarization survey using proposed deep boreholes
    as survey platforms to maximize the investigation for additional gold
    mineralization at depth; and 
--  Environmental baseline, permitting, metallurgical, geotechnical,
    conceptual mining, and other engineering studies required to evaluate
    the conceptual economic viability of a mining project. 



Windfall Lake 2014 Exploration Program

Eagle Hill recently completed a 3,333-metre drilling program in the Main Zone to
test for extensions of Zone 27 under shallow lakes (2 to 6 metres depth) that
were frozen. Eagle Hill drilled 21 holes to a depth of 120 to 321 metres to test
the lateral extensions of Zone 27, where previous drilling had confirmed
near-surface high-grade intervals such as 14.8 g/t over 16.0 metres
(EAG-12-418). All core has been delivered to the assay laboratory, with results
pending.


On April 8, 2014, the Company closed the "flow-through" portion of a
non-brokered private placement announced on March 28, 2014, raising $1.0 million
to be used for exploration at the Windfall Lake Gold Project. The Board of
Directors and Eagle Hill's Vice President Exploration are currently finalizing
plans for additional drilling in 2014.

About Eagle Hill Exploration Corporation

Eagle Hill Exploration Corporation is a Canadian mineral exploration company
focused on the exploration and development of the high-grade Windfall Lake Gold
Deposit, located between Val-d'Or and Chibougamau in Quebec. In August 2013,
Southern Arc Minerals and Dundee Corporation invested an aggregate of $12
million to purchase a controlling interest in Eagle Hill and fund an aggressive
exploration program, and are working together to advance the Windfall Lake Gold
Project. The Windfall Lake gold deposit comprises a number of lenses of pyritic
stockwork and shear zones situated in the Archean Urban-Barry Greenstone Belt.
The bulk of the mineralization occurs in the Main Zone, a southwest/northeast
trending zone of stacked mineralized lenses, measuring approximately 600 metres
wide and at least 1,400 metres long. More information is available on Eagle
Hill's website at www.eaglehillexploration.com.

Qualified Person 

The construction of the mineral resource model was a collaborative effort
between Eagle Hill and SRK personnel. The resource estimation work was completed
by Dr. Jean-Francois Ravenelle PGeo (OGQ#1062), Dorota El-Rassi, PEng (APEO
#100012348) and Dominic Chartier, PGeo (OGQ#874) under the supervision of Glen
Cole, PGeo (APGO #1416). By virtue of their education, relevant project
experience, and affiliation to a recognized professional association, Dr.
Ravenelle, Ms. El-Rassi, Mr. Chartier and Mr. Cole, are "qualified persons"
independent from Eagle Hill for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101. Mr.
Cole has reviewed the information contained in this news release.


The technical information in this document has been reviewed by Eagle Hill's
Vice President Exploration, Jean-Philippe Desrochers, PhD, PGeo, who has
sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralization under
consideration and qualifies as a Qualified Person as defined by National
Instrument 43-101. The drill program and sampling protocol is managed by Eagle
Hill under the supervision of Jean-Philippe Desrochers. The diamond drill holes
are drilled at NQ sizes and core recovery to date has averaged better than
95.0%. Half core is cut by rock saw and is generally sampled using nominal
1-metre intervals; however, sample intervals vary according to geological
contacts and have ranged between 0.3 to 1.5 metres in length. Two quality
control samples (one blank and one certified reference material) are inserted
into each batch of 20 samples. All assays were performed by ALS Chemex
Laboratory Group, in Val d'Or, Quebec. The half core samples are securely
transported from the project site to the ALS Chemex laboratory by Eagle Hill
personnel. Gold analyses reported in this release were performed by standard
fire assay using a 50-gram charge with atomic absorption finish and a
gravimetric finish for assays greater than 10 grams per tonne and by metallic
sieve method for samples containing significant amounts of pyrite or visible
gold. In addition, an Aqua regia digestion with ICP-AES finish is used to
analyse a full suite of elements including silver and base metals.
