Significant intercepts at Tri-K Project, Guinea

Avocet Mining PLC ("Avocet" or "the Company") announces significant intercepts from recent infill drilling at the Tri-K Development Project (the "Project") in Guinea. The drilling has been conducted as part of the ongoing feasibility study and mining licence application process for an oxide heap leach operation.

The Project consists of a series of permits in northeast Guinea, with the main prospects (Kodiéran and Koulékoun) located approximately 20 kilometres apart. The Project currently has a total Mineral Resource of 3.2 million ounces, of which approximately 0.6 million ounces are expected to be hosted in oxide ore amenable to heap leach, subject to metallurgical testing. Infill drilling at Kodiéran has been completed in order to upgrade the predominantly Inferred Mineral Resource estimate within the oxide zone to the Measured and Indicated categories, ahead of the maiden Ore Reserve estimate being made. Drilling for this particular campaign consisted of approximately 25,000 metres of reverse circulation drilling, from 318 drill holes.

A table of all drill intersections is shown in the appendices. Highlights are as follows:

   --        KD000575: 36 metres @ 6.84 g/t Au from surface; 

-- KD000508: 21 metres @ 9.29 g/t Au from 27 metres depth, and 11 metres @ 12.10 g/t Au from 49 metres depth;

   --        KD000639: 34 metres @ 8.45 g/t Au from 24 metres depth; 
   --        KD000504: 27 metres @ 6.89 g/t Au from 63 metres depth; 
   --        KD000644: 47 metres @ 3.70 g/t Au from 14 metres depth; 
   --        KD000635: 37 metres @ 4.45 g/t Au from 27 metres depth; 
   --        KD000632: 35 metres @ 4.68 g/t Au from 40 metres depth; and 
   --        KD000647: 81 metres @ 1.86 g/t Au from 1 metre depth. 

The feasibility study for Tri-K is for a heap leach operation to process the uppermost, oxidised portion of the orebody, including all of the above drill intersections. Exploitation of the fresh component of the orebody will be considered at a later date.

Commenting on these drill results, David Cather, Chief Executive Officer for Avocet, stated:

"This phase of drilling was completed as part of the process to establish a maiden reserve at Tri-K, which has the potential to become Guinea's next gold mine. Whilst the full impact of these intersections will not be fully known until this drilling is incorporated in the Tri-K Mineral Resource estimate, these results are nonetheless excellent."

Notes:

-- Aside from the 3 drill intersections at Tri-K that are referenced in the press release dated 2 May 2013, all results listed in this release are previously unpublished.

-- All results shown are for those intersections with grade-width values greater than 10. Rows in bold denote intersections with grade-width values greater than 25.

-- Individual gold assays have a top cut of 30 g/t Au and a lower cut of 0.5 g/t Au for intercept calculations.

   --      Maximum internal waste allowed is 2m and minimum mineralised interval is 1m. 

-- All holes are drilled from surface using conventional reverse circulation drilling techniques.

   --      All samples have been prepared and analysed by SGS Laboratories in Mali. 
   --      Gold has been analysed by fire assay using a 50 gram charge. 
   --      All sample batches have passed Avocet's QAQC protocols.
