FEX Fjordland Exploration Inc

Fjordland Exploration Inc. (TSX VENTURE:FEX) announces it has completed the
spin-out of its interest in the Woodjam copper-gold project to Consolidated
Woodjam Copper Corp. (TSX VENTURE:WCC) ("Woodjam Copper"), and Fjordland
shareholders have been issued approximately 0.3784 of a Woodjam Copper share for
each Fjordland share held as of the close of November 25, 2011, the effective
date.


The Canadian federal income tax consequences of the spin-out transaction are
summarized in the information circular of Fjordland dated September 1, 2011, as
filed on the SEDAR website. In particular, shareholders should reduce the
Adjusted Cost Base ("ACB") of Fjordland shares by an amount which should then be
recorded as the acquisition cost of the Woodjam Copper shares. Management of
Fjordland has calculated that the ACB of each post-spin-out common share of
Fjordland should be reduced to 35.6% of its pre-spin-out ACB and that 64.4% of
the ACB of each pre-spin-out common share of Fjordland should be recorded as the
acquisition cost of each Woodjam Copper share. This fair value ACB adjustment
calculation is based on the relative Fjordland and Woodjam Copper closing share
prices for the five trading days from December 2, 2011 to December 8, 2011. No
such determination of fair value by Fjordland is binding on the Canadian tax
authorities.
