("EMED Mining" or the "Company")

Exercise of Options

Correction

The Company announces that the Exercise of Options announcement released earlier today stated an incorrect number of Ordinary Shares of 11,8000,000 held by Mr Anagnostaras-Adams, and it should have read 11,800,000. All other information in the announcement was correct. A copy of the full amended announcement is below.

EMED Mining Public Limited, the Europe-based minerals development and exploration company, announces that it has received notice that a number of its employees, directors and advisers exercised options over 6,533,000 ordinary shares of 0.25 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares"). All of these options were originally granted on 22 March 2009 and have an exercise price of 4.13 pence per Ordinary Share. 

Of the options that have been exercised, options over 1,000,000 Ordinary Shares were exercised by EMED Mining's Chairman, Ronnie Beevor; options over 2,000,000 Ordinary Shares were exercised by Semarang Limited, a company associated with Harry Anagnostaras-Adams, EMED Mining's Managing Director; options over 1,500,000 Ordinary Shares were exercised by EMED's Finance Director, John Leach; and options over 500,000 Ordinary Shares were exercised by non-executive director Ashwath Mehra. All directors retained the shares.

Following the above exercise of options, Mr Beevor has a beneficial interest in 8,400,000 Ordinary Shares; Mr Anagnostaras-Adams 11,800,000 Ordinary Shares; Mr. Leach 3,960,000 Ordinary Shares; and Mr. Mehra 500,000 Ordinary Shares representing 0.71%, 1.00%, 0.33% and 0.04% respectively of the Company's issued share capital following the issue of the Ordinary Shares pursuant to the exercise of options.

The Company has made application to the London Stock Exchange for 6,533,000 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective on or about 21 June 2013.

Following the issue of Ordinary Shares pursuant to the exercise of options, the Company will have 1,183,698,948 Ordinary Shares in issue.
