18 September 2013 Nordgold Enters into a Binding Letter of Intent with Columbus Gold Corp. to Acquire 50.01% of Montagne d'Or Deposit in French Guiana -- Montagne d'Or deposit fits Nordgold's greenfield project criteria: o Significant resource for open pit mining with upside potential o High grade non-refractory ores o Key infrastructure already in place to pursue rapid development -- Provides entry into highly prospective and underexplored region of Guiana Gold Belt -- Columbus Gold is a strong local partner with significant operational experience in French Guiana Amsterdam, Netherlands, September 18, 2013 - Nord Gold N.V. ("Nordgold" or the "Company", LSE: NORD), the internationally diversified, pure-play gold producer strategically focused on emerging markets, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding letter of intent (the "Agreement") with Columbus Gold Corp. (CGT: TSX-V) ("Columbus Gold") under which Columbus Gold has granted Nordgold the exclusive right to earn a 50.01% interest in certain licences at Columbus Gold's 100%-owned Paul Isnard project. Paul Isnard contains inferred gold resources of 4.15 million ounces at 2.22 g/t Au in the Montagne d'Or deposit ("the Project") in French Guiana. As part of the Agreement, Nordgold can earn a 50.01% interest in the Project by completing a bankable feasibility study (the "BFS") and by spending not less than US$30 million over three years ("the Option Period") in staged work expenditures ("Property Expenditures"), which includes a requirement for Nordgold to pay Columbus Gold US$4.2 million in cash no later than May 21, 2014. The US$4.2 million payment is due in consideration of Columbus Gold purchasing an underlying royalty on the Project. During the Option Period, Columbus Gold will act as operator on the Project and charge a 10% management fee on certain expenditures. With the exception of the mandatory US$4.2 million payment, all expenditure requirements are optional and the Agreement does not impose upon Nordgold any obligation to perform any act hereunder, including without limitation making any Property Expenditures. The parties have not created a partnership. The Agreement is subject to several conditions that must be satisfied on or before January 31, 2014, including obtaining the consent of underlying royalty holders and the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. Rationale for the Acquisition: -- Participation in the Project is another step in the implementation of Nordgold's strategy to expand our portfolio through the development of high quality projects to deliver long term growth and value to shareholders. -- Montagne d'Or fits Nordgold's criteria for greenfield projects: o Significant resource for open pit mining with upside potential. o High grade non-refractory ores amenable to simple metallurgy. o Key infrastructu

Exillon Energy Plc 18 September 2013 NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, IN, INTO OR FROM, ANY RESTRICTED JURISDICTIONS OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHERE TO DO SO WOULD CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF THE RELEVANT LAWS OF SUCH JURISDICTION. For Immediate Release 18 September 2013 Exillon Energy plc ("Exillon" or the "Company") Commencement of Formal Sale Process Introduction Exillon announced on 30 July 2013 that it had received an approach from Mr Maksat Arip that could lead to an offer being made for the Company. Since that time, the Company has received additional preliminary and conditional approaches in relation to an acquisition of Exillon. Accordingly, the Board of Exillon has unanimously decided to conduct a strategic review of the Company's options, including a potential sale of the Company. Any discussions relating to a sale of the Company would be conducted under the framework of a "formal sale process" under the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the "Code"), under which the Board of Exillon would be able to have discussions with third parties interested in such a transaction on a confidential basis. Exillon's Chairman, David Herbert, commented: "Exillon's assets remain materially undervalued by the market. The Board has unanimously concluded that the best way to maximise value for all shareholders at this time is to conduct a strategic review, including an objective auction process." Implications of the Formal Sale Process under the Code The Takeover Panel has granted a dispensation from the requirements of Rules 2.4(a), 2.4(b) and 2.6(a) of the Code such that any interested party participating in the formal sale process will not be required to be publicly identified as a result of this announcement (subject to note 3 to Rule 2.2 of the Code) and will not be subject to the 28 day deadline referred to in Rule 2.6(a), for so long as it is participating in the formal sale process. Interested parties should note Rule 21.2 of the Code, which prohibits any form of inducement fee or other offer-related arrangement, and that the Company has not requested any dispensation from this prohibition under Note 2 of Rule 21.2 at this stage. It is noted that the Company remains in an offer period, which commenced on 30 July 2013. Process The Company has appointed Goldman Sachs International as financial adviser, to work alongside LCF Edmond de Rothschild Securities Limited, to conduct the formal sale process. Parties with a potential interest in making an offer for, merging with or proposing other forms of corporate transaction with, Exillon should contact Goldman Sachs International (contact details as set out below) without delay.
