INTENDED FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION
TO THE UNITED STATES


Rodinia Lithium Inc. ("Rodinia" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:RM)(OTCQX:RDNAF)
announced today that it intends to increase the issue size of its previously
announced potash stream financing to 4.5 million subscription receipts (the
"Subscription Receipts"), at a price of $1.00 per Subscription Receipt, for
aggregate gross proceeds of $4.5 million, on a non-brokered private placement
basis (See Press Release dated April 2, 2012). Each Subscription Receipt will be
exchangeable upon the occurrence of certain events (including the receipt of the
required regulatory and shareholder approvals) into a unit (a "Unit") consisting
of one Cumulative Rate Reset Non-Voting Potash Stream Preferred Share (a "Potash
Stream Preferred Share" or "Preferred Share") and one-half (1/2) of a common
share purchase warrant ("Warrant"). Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder
thereof to acquire one common share of the Company at a price of $0.45 for a
period of 18 months following the closing date of the Offering.


Holders of the Potash Stream Preferred Shares will be entitled to receive a
cumulative, preferential cash dividend linked to the potash price and to the
revenue generated by the Company from its potash by-product sales from its Salar
de Diablillos Project, located in Salta Province, Argentina (the "Project").


Initially, each Potash Stream Preferred Share will provide, if and when
declared, for an annual cumulative preferential cash dividend at a floating per
share rate over the issue price of 9% plus a potash price adjustment, payable
annually on the last day of January following the relevant completed fiscal
year, with respect to the initial period commencing upon the issuance of the
Preferred Shares and ending December 31 of the first year of initial potash
production.


Thereafter, the dividend rate will be reset such that the holders of Potash
Stream Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, if and when declared,
quarterly dividends in an amount equal to the total amount of net potash revenue
generated from the Project for that quarter divided by 20,000,000 (being the
maximum number of Preferred Shares that will be authorized in the capital of the
Company). After the reset, any such dividend, if and when declared, shall be
paid on the last day of the month following the quarter in respect of which such
dividend is payable. Net potash revenue shall be calculated based on the
quantity of potash sold and the potash sales price realized less a potash
production cost of US$185.00 per tonne of potash sold.


The Potash Stream Preferred Shares will not be retractable, convertible or
redeemable by the holder thereof. They will be redeemable by the Company in
certain circumstances.


Closing of the Offering will be subject to obtaining the required TSX Venture
Exchange approval. Proceeds from the Offering will be held in escrow or placed
in a segregated restricted account until all required regulatory and shareholder
approvals are obtained for the creation of the Potash Stream Preferred Shares,
at which time, the Subscription Receipts shall be exchanged for Units. Net
proceeds of the Offering will be used to finance further development of the
Project and will go toward completion of a Feasibility Study, and for general
corporate purposes, including working capital.


This press release does not constitute an offer of securities for sale in the
United States. The securities being offered have not been, nor will be,
registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may
not be offered or sold within the United States absent U.S. registration or an
applicable exemption from U.S. registration requirements. This press release
shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor
shall there be any sale of the Common Shares or Warrants in any jurisdiction in
which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
