US$3.1 million Subscription

Asiamet Resources Limited ("Asiamet" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has raised a total of approximately US$3.1 million (approximately £2.3 million), via a direct subscription by the Company's majority shareholder PT Buma International Tbk. ("BUMA"), certain members of the Board and Management team and several other investors (together, the "Subscription"). Pursuant to the Subscription, a total of 149,387,512 new common shares of US$0.01 each ("Common Shares") will be issued at a price of 1.55 pence (approximately US$0.02) per share (the "Issue Price").

Highlights of the Subscription:

·    Strategic shareholder BUMA, subscribing for approximately US$1.37 million, maintaining its equity interest of 44.15% in the Company

·    Certain Asiamet Directors and Management subscribing for approximately US$0.24 million; and

·    Other investors subscribing for approximately US$1.49 million.

Net proceeds of the Subscription will be utilised for general working capital purposes, including to:

·    Maintain the Company's projects in good standing with all Government of Indonesia regulatory requirements;

·    Progress the satisfaction of the Conditions Precedent under the proposed sale of our interest in the KSK project via the sale of Indokal Limited; and

·    Continue the evaluation of the most value-accretive path forward for the Beutong Project.

Darryn McClelland, Chief Executive Officer of Asiamet, commented:

"The Company remains focused on concluding the proposed sale of Indokal Limited in the short order and delivering a return of substantially all the funds from the sale to shareholders as previously outlined. The funding announced today enables the Company to maintain its projects in good standing, an important requirement under the Indokal Sale Purchase Agreement, and to advance activities towards completion of the transaction, which remains on track for completion within the previously communicated timeframe. I look forward to updating our stakeholders as we progress towards completion."

Related Party Transactions

BUMA is a substantial shareholder of the Company. BUMA's participation in the Subscription is therefore deemed to be a related party transaction under AIM Rule 13. In addition, the participation of Tony Manini, Dominic Heaton, Matthew Doube and Darryn McClelland in the Subscription is deemed to be a related party transaction under AIM Rule 13.

As such, and in compliance with the AIM Rules for Companies, the directors of Asiamet who are independent for the purposes of the Subscription (being Eva Armila and Bruce Sheng), having consulted with Strand Hanson, in its capacity as the Company's nominated adviser, consider that the terms of the related parties' participation in the Subscription are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.

Admission and Total Voting Rights

The Subscription is subject to, inter alia, admission of the Subscription Shares to trading on AIM (which are expected to be issued and settled in CREST to the extent possible).

Following Admission, the Company's issued common share capital will comprise 3,393,816,362 Common Shares. From Admission, the figure of 3,393,816,362 may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
