Bulldog Exploration Commences Drilling on Eagle Lake Uranium Property, Saskatchewan

Cranbrook, B.C., June 28th, 2012: Bulldog Explorations Ltd. (TSX-V:BDG) (formerly SinoGas West Inc.) has recently notified Eagle Plains Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:EPL) that drilling activity has commenced on EPL’s 100% owned Eagle Lake uranium project located 45 km southeast of Cameco's Key Lake mining operation in north-central Saskatchewan, Canada. 

The exploration program consists of approximately 450 metres of diamond drilling and is being conducted on behalf of Bulldog by Terralogic Exploration Inc., a subsidiary of Eagle Plains. The total budget for this work is approximately $350,000, which is being funded by Bulldog. 2012 drill targets consist of uranium mineralization discovered through prospecting by TerraLogic in 2008. Named “Red October”, the area contains grab samples which returned up to 1.02% U3O8. Subsequent soil sampling and a magnetic geophysical survey indicate that mineralization is coincident with a pronounced linear magnetic high feature. This magnetic feature is continuous for at least 1.5 kilometers and is coincident with several radioactive features. 

Bulldog and Eagle Plains have executed a Property Option Agreement whereby Bulldog has the right to acquire a 60% interest in the Eagle Lake Property. In order to earn a 60% interest in the Property, Bulldog must make staged cash payments to Eagle Plains totaling $300,000, carry out $3,000,000 in aggregate exploration expenditures, and issue to Eagle Plains an aggregate of 1,000,000 common shares of the Company over a period of four years.

The Eagle Lake Property consists of six mineral dispositions covering approximately 14,295 hectares located approximately 190 km north of La Ronge, Saskatchewan and approximately 45 km south east of the Key Lake Mine in Saskatchewan. 

The current program will be conducted under the supervision of Jarrod Brown, P.Geo., hereby identified as the “Qualified Person” under N.I. 43-101.
