Dear Shareholder

PRO RATA NON-RENOUNCEABLE ENTITLEMENTS ISSUE

St George Mining Limited (“St George” or the “Company”) announced on 2 August 2011 that it will launch a pro rata non-renounceable entitlements issue of one (1) new share for every five (5) shares held at an issue price of $0.15 per new share together with three (3) free attaching options for every two (2) new shares successfully subscribed for (the “Entitlements Issue”). Each new option shall have an exercise price of $0.20 and an expiry date of 30 November 2014.

The Entitlements Issue will result in the issue of 10,500,000 new shares in the Company and 15,750,000 new options.

PROSPECTUS AND OFFER DETAILS

The Company lodged a Prospectus in respect to the Entitlements Issue with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (“ASIC”) and the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”) on 5 August 2011. Full details of the Entitlements Issue are contained in the Prospectus which is available on the ASX website at www.asx.com.au. The Prospectus will be dispatched to shareholders in accordance with the timetable outlined below.

The offer under the Entitlements Issue is non-renounceable, which means that rights to participate in the Entitlements Issue cannot be sold. Therefore, to the extent that shareholders entitled to participate do not take up their entitlements, they will not receive any value for that part of the entitlement not taken up.

The new shares offered are fully paid ordinary shares and will rank equally with the Company’s existing ordinary shares.

The Company will apply to ASX for quotation of the new shares offered under the Entitlements Issue. In addition, subject to meeting the requirements of the ASX Listing Rules, the Company will make an application to the ASX to quote the new options that are issued pursuant to the Entitlements Issue.

The purpose of the Entitlements Issue is to:

  • (a) raise approximately $1,575,000 (before expenses); and

  • (b) accelerate exploration activities at the Company’s East Laverton and Pine Creek projects.

RECORD DATE

The time for determining the entitlements of shareholders under the Entitlements Issue shall be 5.00pm (WST) on 16 August 2011.
