ABOUT GBM RESOUCRCES

GBM Resources (ASX: GBZ ) is an Australian‐based exploration company with assets in Queensland and Victoria. Since listing on the ASX in October 2007, the company has targeted large gold and copper‐gold systems in those two areas.

The Company’s “Flagship” project is the large Milo IOCG (Iron Oxide, Copper Gold) Milo Project in the rich Mt Isa Region in northwest Queensland.

Recent sampling of previous drilling has confirmed the widespread presence of Rare Earth and Yttrium mineralisation across the Milo Project area, which in turn could potentially add significant additional value to the IOCG project.

Milo is emerging as a potentially world‐class large tonnage poly‐metallic deposit, with recent flotation test work completed on the copper equivalent metals showing excellent recoveries across all key metals.

The company has commenced a Scoping Study for the Milo Project with the key aims of delineating a resource and completing the metallurgical test work on the rare earth elements. It is confident of a positive outcome from the Scoping Study will lead to the commencement of a pre–feasibility study by June 2012.

The information in this release that relates to Exploration Results is based on information compiled by Neil Norris, who is a Member or Fellow of The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. Mr Norris is a full‐time employee of the company. Mr Norris has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2004 Edition of the ‘Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves’. Mr Norris consents to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.
