Near surface drilling on Zone 27 returned another wide interval assaying 10.87 g/t gold over 15.8 meters (drillhole EAG-12-409). This interval includes several high grade intervals such as 76.6 g/t gold over 1.0 meter, 17.1 g/t gold over 1.1 meter, and 29.4 g/t gold over 0.9 meters. The individual values are presented in a table at the end of this press release. In addition, the same drill hole intersected 1.91 g/t gold over 9.3 meters in a parallel zone, located only 10 meters to the southeast of Zone 27.

Zone 27 – Deep mineralization

Drill hole EAG-11-309 was extended another 420.5 meters to a depth of 1052.5 meters to test the gold mineralization at depth, below the Red Dog intrusion. The drill hole intersected Zone 27 below the Red Dog with 3.49 g/t gold over 5 meters. This intersection represents a 75 meter step-out to the East and demonstrates the continuity of Zone 27 at depth. In addition, this hole intersected deeper gold mineralization with 10.8 g/t gold over 1.0 meter and 39.2 g/t gold over 0.7 meters. Eagle Hill also extended drill hole EAG-11-311 to test Zone 27 another 100 meters to the west of drill hole EAG-12-320. The assay results are still pending for this drill hole and will be released as soon as they become available.

Zone 27 – Eastern Extension

Additional drilling in the eastern extension of gold Zone 27 demonstrates that this zone continues to deliver solid gold results. Drill hole EAG-12-407 returned an interval of 19.84 g/t gold over 2.0 meters and drill hole EAG-12-408 assayed 5.4 g/t gold over 0.8 meter. Furthermore, the zone remains open for expansion to the east. The area covered by the drilling was not included in the mineral resource estimate released on July 25, 2012. Eagle Hill will continue to drill on section 2800 to expand the zone even further to the east.

The gold mineralized zones defined to date in the Main Zone cover a lateral extension of more than 700 meters and include, from South to North, the Caribou South zone, the Caribou zone, the Mink zone, Zone 27 South, Zone 27, the Mallard zone, and the Mallard North zone. All the zones are near vertical and vary in thickness between 2 meters and 35 meters. In addition to the near surface gold mineralization present at Windfall, recent drilling has demonstrated that mineralized zones continue to a depth of at least 770 meters below surface. Drill holes EAG-11-309ext included in this release, as well as previous drill holes with intercepts such as 8.9 g/t gold over 14.0 meters and 5.5 g/t gold over 15.0 meters have shown the existence of mineralized zones below the Red Dog intrusion (March 1, 2012 press release).

A map of the Windfall Lake property outlining the location of the gold zones, drill holes and areas of potential expansion, together with cross-sections, a longitudinal section and pictures of core showing the mineralization style have been posted on Eagle Hill’s website, www.eaglehillexploration.com/sections.

The table shows the most significant assay results discussed in this press release.

The true widths are interpreted to be approximately 70 per cent of reported width.

Gold analyses reported in this release were performed by standard fire assay using a 30-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. All assays were performed by ALS Chemex Laboratory Group, in Val d’Or, Que. Sampling and analytical procedures are subject to a comprehensive quality assurance and quality control program. The QA-QC program includes duplicate samples, blanks and analytical standards.

The following table shows the individual assay results from drill hole EAG-12-409.

About the Windfall Lake Property

The Windfall Lake Property is comprised of 362 contiguous claims (over 12,000 hectares) in the Abitibi mineralized belt of northern Quebec. This area between Val-d’Or and Chibougamau is known for its gold and copper production and excellent infrastructure for exploration and mining. Historically, the Windfall Lake Property has had extensive grassroots exploration work. Along with its independently acquired claims at the Windfall Lake Property, Eagle Hill has also signed options with Murgor Resources Inc., Cliffs Natural Resources Inc. (formerly, Freewest Resources Canada Inc.), and Noront Resources Inc. to acquire the Windfall Lake Property. During July 2012, the Company received its second mineral resource estimate, the results of which are displayed in the table below:
