Colonial Coal International Corp. (TSX VENTURE:CAD) (the "Company" or "Colonial
Coal") - 


David Austin, Colonial Coal's President and CEO, is pleased to report that,
based upon a review of various data from in and around Colonial Coal's Flatbed
project area (located south of Tumbler Ridge, B.C.), Colonial Coal's geological
consultant has now identified three target areas for initial exploration. The
data reviewed included:




--  a regional Geological Compilation Map of the Peace River region; 
--  records of oil and gas well drilling in and around the Flatbed
    application area; 
--  records of past coal exploration in the region; and 
--  results from reconnaissance exploration completed by Colonial Coal to
    date.



As a result of this new information the Company, in consultation with its
consultant, has concluded that there are three areas worthy of future
exploration aimed at the location of underground mineable metallurgical coal
deposits for seams targeted at depths between 200 metres and 600 metres. These
areas are located in the northwest and along the northeastern and southwestern
sides of the Company's application area.


Mineral Titles BC has recently informed the Company that the all of its Flatbed
coal license applications (plus the two older coal license applications for the
Company's Huguenot property) form part of a "bundle" of coal license
applications currently being processed by the British Columbia Ministry of
Energy Mines and Natural Gas ("MEMNG"). Once the Company acquires tenure and all
exploration permits have been approved by the Provincial Government, the Company
intends to conduct a drilling program to test each of the target areas
identified above. 


On December 12, 2012, MEMNG announced that it had established a number of coal
land reserves in an effort to protect high elevation caribou habitat across the
South Peace region to support the recovery of Northern Caribou. Land covered by
these reserve areas is no longer available for the acquisition of new coal,
mineral or placer tenures. None of the areas covered by the Company's coal
license applications (both at Flatbed and Huguenot) are included in these coal
land reserves. 


This press release has been reviewed by John Perry, a director of the Company
and a Qualified Person as defined in National Instrument 43-101.
