Morumbi Resources Files 43-101 Technical Report

Morumbi Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:MOC) ("Morumbi" or the "Company") is pleased
to announce that it has filed a National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101")
compliant technical report in respect of the Popondetta Property in Papua New
Guinea.


Morumbi Resources Inc. holds Exploration Licence 1767 (EL1767) also known as
Popondetta Property, in the southeastern Owen Stanley Range, Papua New Guinea.
The 34,100 ha concession lies between concessions where recently discovered
porphyry copper-gold mineralization is being drilled to the northwest and
massive nickel sulphides and some porphyry copper-gold mineralization is also
being investigated to the southeast.


2012 Exploration Program

During two (2) weeks in April, April 12 - 26, 2012, a crew of six (6) geologists
traveled to Popondetta (EL1767) to sample in the central-east portion of the
concession in the Ukuma River, Uko Creek, Mina Creek and Aime Creek areas. These
areas were identified as prospective targets during an earlier sampling program
by the previous operator.


A total of 68 rock samples, 45 stream sediment samples and 52 panned concentrate
samples were taken, many of which confirmed previous sampling and a few of which
extended the potential for mineralization. Attention was paid in particular to
identifying visible gold and describing in detail rock samples.


Of the 68 rock samples, 17 contained greater than 1% copper and 13 contained
greater than 1 g/t gold. Five of the samples also contained greater than 1%
copper and 1 g/t gold combined. Additionally thirty samples contained greater
than 0.5% copper or 0.5 g/t gold. Most of the samples contained vein quartz and
sulphides.


Alteration minerals described in the samples included carbonate, chlorite,
epidote, sericite, smectite and kaolin. Clay gouge and shearing were common
features and most samples with anomalous values contained quartz veins.


The highest gold sample assayed 31.7 g/t gold described as massive
carbonate-silica vein with up to 1% pyrite-chalcopyrite-sphalerite in an
ultramafic-basalt host. Another sample assaying 6.25 g/t gold was from a 10-15
cm wide silica vein in gabbro. The best coincident copper-gold results were in
quartz-sulphide veins in gabbro-ultramafic rocks.


Rock sampling 500 to 1,500m southwest of the previously investigated area
produced assays of 2.19, 1.34 and 0.33 g/t gold in three samples with
corresponding higher copper values.


This round of sampling confirmed previous work which identified the Uko, Aime
and Mina Creek prospects and also extends the area of interest south of Mina
Creek prospect where a recent sample in a quartz vein with pyrite assayed 1.34
g/t gold, and in the Aime Creek area where a new sample in a massive sulphide
vein assayed 5.24 g/t gold.


Although there is a concentration of sampling along Uko Creek some of the recent
sampling indicates that mineralization occurs further afield and needs in-fill
sampling, geological mapping and more extensive sampling.


Recommendations of the NI 43-101 author

The author has proposed a two-phase program. Phase I budget of US$261,800 to
conduct an initial exploration program including compilation of previous work,
stream sediment sampling, pan concentrate sampling, litho-geochemical sampling
and geological mapping. The objective of the program is to identify potential
targets to be followed up with a phase II program which would include soil
sampling, ground geophysical surveys (magnetic and IP) and an initial diamond
drilling program (1500 metres). Proposed budget for Phase II is US$750,000.
Phase II would be contingent upon favorable results from Phase I. Phase I would
be completed over a three months field program.


The independent technical report, entitled "Review of the Popondetta Property
(EL1767), Oro Province, Papua New Guinea" (the "Technical Report"), dated
September 27, 2012, was prepared by Gerald Clark, FAusIMM, MAIG, a Qualified
Person as defined by, and independent of Morumbi for the purposes of, NI 43-101
requirements. The technical information relating to the Technical Report
contained in this press release has been reviewed and approved by Gerald Clark,
FAusIMM, MAIG, an independent qualified person under NI 43-101. The Technical
Report is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on the Company's website at
