ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

Result of institutional placing - US$40 million raised

Further to the announcement of 25 November 2011 (the “Announcement”), Metminco is pleased to announce the successful completion of the Institutional Placing. A total of 285,714,286 new Shares have been placed by Canaccord Genuity, Liberum and Canaccord BGF in relation to the Institutional Placing at a price of A$0.14 (£0.088) each to raise gross proceeds of approximately US$40 million (£25.1, A$40 million).

The Institutional Placing comprises two tranches. The Company will apply for admission of the Firm Shares (211,850,000 Shares) to be traded on AIM and the ASX. It is expected that First Admission will take place and that trading will commence on ASX on or around Thursday 1 December 2011 and on AIM at 8.00 a.m. on or around Thursday 1 December 2011.

Subject to shareholder approval at the General Meeting on or about 4 January 2012, the Company will also apply for admission of the Conditional Shares (73,864,286 Shares) to be traded on AIM and the ASX. It is expected that Second Admission will take place and that trading will commence on ASX on or around Friday 6 January 2012 and on AIM at 8.00 a.m. on or around Thursday 5 January 2012 and in any event no later than 31 January 2012.

Following admission of the Firm Shares, Metminco‟s issued share capital will consist of 1,674,466,146 Shares. Following admission of the Conditional Shares, Metminco‟s issued share capital will consist of 1,748,330,432 Shares.

We are delighted to have successfully concluded this fundraise in very challenging market conditions. We are encouraged by the strong support of not only our existing shareholders but also an excellent group of blue chip international institutional investors. We are now fully funded to deliver our 2012 work programme and make significant progress in delineating the world class Los Calatos porphyry system and position ourselves to bring Mollacas towards near term production as planned.
