ALANGE ENERGY SHARE OF PRODUCTION REACHES 3,500 BOED; ANNOUNCES FINANCIAL
RESULTS FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010

TORONTO, Aug. 30 /CNW/ - Alange Energy Corp. (TSXV: ALE) announced today the release of its unaudited interim consolidated financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, together with its Management's Discussion and Analysis. These documents will be available on the Company's website at www.alangeenergy.com and at www.SEDAR.com.

Continued exploration and appraisal program success enabled the Company to report its third consecutive quarter of growth in its share of production from its oil and gas properties. With its gross share of production (before deduction of royalties) averaging 2,764 barrels of oil equivalent per day ("boed") in June 2010, the Company has tripled its production rate in less than a year. The Company's daily production rate has since increased by a further 27% to approximately 3,500 boed at present and remains on track to reach the 10,000 boed level in the second quarter of 2011.

Luis E. Giusti, the Company's Chief executive Officer, stated "we are encouraged by the exploration and development program results in the first half of 2010. We have enjoyed several new discoveries at Cubiro and La Punta that are fueling our growth in keeping with our strategy. During the second half of 2010, we expect to drill 12 new wells and complete 4 workovers, in addition to completing 3 important infrastructure projects at Carbonera to significantly ramp up our gas production".

For the second quarter ended June 30, 2010, the Company reported revenue of $10.8 million bringing the total revenues for the first half of 2010 to $21.3 million, compared with $1.2 million in the first half last year. The Company reported a net loss of $7.6 million, or $0.01 per share, in the second quarter of 2010, compared with $2.8 million, or $0.02 per share, in the second quarter last year. The net loss for the first half of 2010 was $13.3 million, or $0.02 per share, compared with a net loss of $5.5 million, or $0.04 per share, in the first half of 2009.

The Company continued its strategic initiatives in the second quarter of 2010, spending an additional $16.8 million on its oil and gas properties, funded by cash flow from operations and $9.3 million of proceeds from two new term loans drawn down in the quarter. These expenditures included significant continued transformation of the infrastructure at Cubiro to support its planned growth and to improve operational efficiency. The exploration and development program led to the announcement of successful discoveries at Careto-5, Copa-1 and La Punta-3. These discoveries, together with the optimization of the Barranquero-1 well, were key contributors to the recent growth in production.

Management will hold a conference call on Tuesday, August 31, 2010 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time to provide an operational update and to discuss the second quarter results. Analysts and interested investors are invited to participate as follows:

Information in this press release expressed in barrels of oil equivalent (boe) is derived by converting natural gas to oil in the ratio of six thousand cubic feet (mcf) of natural gas to one barrel (bbl) of oil. Boe may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 mcf: 1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
