Amarok Energy Inc. Announces the Release of Third Quarter 2013 Financial Results and Operations Update

CALGARY, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired - Nov. 22, 2013) - Amarok Energy Inc. ("Amarok" or the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:AMR) announces the release of its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. All dollar figures in this release are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.

The Corporation's financial statements and management's discussion and analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 will be available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

In October 2013 Amarok's wholly owned subsidiary Trilateral Energy USA Inc. completed the acquisition of a 50% working interest in an oil and gas property located in central Wyoming, USA (the "Big Horn" property) with an effective date September 1, 2013. The assets include a 50% working interest in 8 gross producing oil wells and approximately 5,257 net acres of land. Amarok is currently reviewing technical data and preparing a capital program to further develop the property. During Q4 2013, as part of the further development of the property, the operator expects to drill and complete 2 wells gross (1 net) and perform a 1 gross (0.5 net) well workover at a net cost to Amarok of approximately $1.8 million.

Amarok has incurred approximately $365,000 of costs to conduct 2D and 3D seismic and well recompletion operations in Montana, USA as part of a due diligence requirement to earn a working interest in an oil and gas property. Based on the technical review of the processed seismic Amarok has elected to drill a well which is expected to spud by early Q1 2014. The well is anticipated to cost approximately $2.0 million to drill and complete, and once completed, Amarok will earn a 50% working interest in approximately 37,000 gross acres (18,500 net). It is anticipated that success in this area will allow Amarok to significantly expand its drilling program.

Amarok has been advised by the operator of the South Sunshine property in Wyoming, USA that it has now obtained certain surface access rights and as a result Amarok is organizing the drilling of a well on the property. Amarok's South Sunshine well is expected to spud in late Q1 2014 or early Q2 2014 with an estimated net drill and completion cost of approximately $1.5 million to Amarok.

Amarok continues to assess new oil and gas investment opportunities in the Americas.

Amarok is a Calgary, Alberta based corporation engaged in the exploration, development and production of petroleum and natural gas in highly structured play fairways of the Americas.
