Reconvening Shareholder Meeting

Amur Minerals Corporation (AIM: AMC) announces the adjourned Shareholders Meeting of 22 February 2010 will be reconvened at 9:00 AM 31 March, 2010 at the offices of Field Fisher Waterhouse, 35 Vine Street, London EC3N 2PX. 

At this reconvened meeting, Shareholders will be asked to approve a special resolution as detailed in the circular dated 1 February 2010 granting the Directors authority pursuant to Article 14.4 (a) of the Company's articles of association to allot up to 50,000,000 Ordinary Shares for cash as if the pre-emption rights contained in the Company's articles of association did not apply to such allotment.

Shareholders will be entitled to attend and vote at the reconvened meeting if they are registered on the Company's register of members 48 hours before the time appointed for the reconvened meeting.

Forms of proxy (and any power of attorney or other authority under which they are signed, or a notarially certified copy of such power or authority) must be deposited with the Registrars of the Company, Capita Registrars, Proxy Department, at The Registry, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent, BR3 4TU, so as to be received not later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the reconvened meeting.

Valid forms of proxy and forms of direction properly submitted prior to the meeting which began on 22 February 2010 will be valid for the reconvened meeting.

Depositary Interest Holders may attend in person and vote on a show of hands or on a poll if the Depositary has appointed them a corporate representative. Depositary Interest Holders not wishing to attend the Shareholders' Meeting but wishing to vote in respect of the resolutions to be considered at the Shareholders' Meeting can do so by instructing the Depositary. This may be done in one of two ways:

(i)         Depositary Interest Holders who are CREST members may give such an instruction utilising the CREST electronic voting service in accordance with the procedures described in the CREST Manual. CREST personal Depositary Holders or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a voting service provider, should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider, who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.

In order for an instruction made by CREST to be valid, the appropriate CREST message ("a CREST proxy instruction") must be properly authenticated in accordance with CRESTCo's requirements and must contain information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual. The message, in order to be valid, must be transmitted so as to be received by the Depositary's agent, ID RA10 not later than 72 hours before the time appointed for the reconvened meeting. The time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST applications host) from which the Depositary's agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. The Depositary may treat as invalid a CREST voting instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5)(a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.

CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers should note that CRESTCo does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST proxy instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider takes) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. Please refer to the CREST Manual for further guidance.

(ii)        Depositary Interest Holders who cannot give voting instructions via CREST should complete the form of direction enclosed with the circular to Shareholders dated 1 February 2010 and submit to the Depositary. If the Depositary Interest Holder is a corporation then the form of direction must be executed by a duly authorised person or under its common seal or in a manner authorised by its constitution. To be valid forms of direction must be received by the Depositary no later than 72 hours before the time appointed for the reconvened meeting.

If a Shareholder submits more than one valid proxy appointment or form of direction but the instructions in such appointments are not compatible with each other, the appointment received last before the latest time for receipt will take precedence.

A copy of the circular to Shareholders is available to view on the Company's website: www.amurminerals.com
