Notes to Editors

Companhia Mineira de Naburi S.A.R.L ("CMDN"), a subsidiary of Pathfinder Minerals, was issued mining concession licence 4623C ("Moebase") on 13 July 2011 for a period of twenty-five years. The Moebase licence is in addition to licence 760C ("Naburi"), also granted in the name of CMDN for a period of 25 years ending in 2029. Taken together, these mining concessions cover approximately 32,000 hectares of land on the Indian Ocean coast of the Zambezia province of Mozambique, known to contain the heavy minerals, ilmenite, rutile and zircon.

Pathfinder Minerals Plc is admitted to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange. Trading was suspended on 11 November 2011 at the Company's request, following notification from General Veloso of his resignation as a director and assertions by him that CMDN is no longer the licence holder. The Company's ownership rights over CMDN are also in dispute and are the subject of injunctive steps in Mozambique and the UK.
