Asian Mineral Resources Limited ("AMR") (TSX VENTURE:ASN) is pleased to announce
that its 90% owned subsidiary, Ban Phuc Nickel Mines LLC ("BPNM"), is currently
in advanced negotiations with Lien Viet Post Bank ("LVPB") on the provision of a
US$20 million project financing loan (the "Project Debt") for its Ban Phuc
Nickel Project. As part of this proposal, and pending final credit approval of
the Project Debt, LVPB has granted an initial US$11 million loan to BPNM (the
"Initial Loan"), secured by cash collateral from AMR's existing cash resources.
The Initial Loan allows expenditure to bring the Ban Phuc Nickel Project into
production to continue uninterrupted.


BPNM is currently working with LVPB to complete its credit approval process and
finalization of definitive agreements for the Project Debt which, if approved
and executed, will be subject to certain conditions precedent customary for a
financing of this type. It is expected that, upon closing of the Project Debt,
the Initial Loan will be replaced by the Project Debt and the cash collateral
released. The Initial Loan has an interest rate of LIBOR plus 6.5% and may be
repaid by BPNM at any time without restriction including if the terms of the
Project Debt are not approved and agreed with LVPB.


Mr. Simon Booth, CEO of AMR, stated: "We are excited to be working in
partnership with LVPB. AMR's continued focus on maximizing local Vietnamese
content, in all aspects of the project, is an important aspect to ensuring the
ongoing success of the project. The successful completion of project financing
will position AMR to move from the milestone of first production at the end of
June 2013, to sustainable positive cash flow".


AMR will provide an update on the Project Debt once credit approval has been
obtained and definitive agreements have been executed with LVPB.
