Sama Intersects 1.88% Nickel, 0.78% Copper and 2.84 GPT Palladium Over 11 Metres at Samapleu Project in Cote d'Ivoire

Sama Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SME) ("Sama" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce that drill hole SM25-112519 intersected a continuous mineralized zone
of 122 metres grading 0.44% nickel, 0.32% copper, 0.03% cobalt, 0.94 grams per
tonne ("gpt") palladium and 0.17 gpt platinum at the Samapleu Extension 1
Deposit in Cote d'Ivoire, West Africa.


The interval begins 22 metres from surface and includes several semi-massive
high grade sulphide lenses, including an interval 11 metres thick grading 1.88%
nickel, 0.78% copper, 0.09% cobalt, 2.84 gpt palladium and 0.31 gpt platinum at
84.9 metres from surface.


As stated in Sama's News Release dated February 28, 2013, 5 new holes have also
intersected mineralization in the same area, adding an additional 230 metre-long
strike at the northeast end of the known Samapleu Extension 1 Deposit.


Hole SM25-112519 was drilled vertically; true widths are not known at this time.
Mineralization is still open at depth. Drilling using Sama's own drill rig is
continuing at a pace of 800 to 1,000 metres per month. Assay results are
expected on a regular basis going forward.


The table set out below shows the details for the mineralized intervals at the
Samapleu Extension 1 Deposit. Intervals were defined using 0.1% nickel cut-off
grades.

Core logging and sampling were performed at Sama's facility in Yorodougou
village. Sample preparations were performed at Societe de Developpement de
Gouessesso's sample preparation facility in Gouessesso village under Sama's
supervision. Sample pulps were delivered to Bureau Veritas Mineral Laboratory's
facility in Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire ("BVML), and then dispatched by BVML directly
to their assay laboratory, Ultra Trace Pty, in Perth, Australia. All samples
were assayed for nickel, copper, cobalt, iron, sulphur, platinum, palladium,
rhodium and gold using sodium peroxide fusion and have been determined by
inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry.

development or mining results will not be consistent with Sama's expectations,
metal price fluctuations, environmental and regulatory requirements,
availability of permits, escalating costs of remediation and mitigation, risk of
title loss, the effects of accidents, equipment breakdowns, labour disputes or
other unanticipated difficulties with or interruptions in exploration or
development, the potential for delays in exploration or development activities,
