Connemara Mining Company plc
(“Connemara” or the “Company”)

Preliminary Results for the Year Ended 31 December 2011


Connemara Mining today announces its Preliminary Results for the year ended 31 December 2011.

Explorations Highlights:
• Stonepark zinc discovery in Limerick increased
• Joint venture agreed on the Oldcastle block of licences
• Work programme designed for Nenagh licences and joint venture partner being sought

Operational Highlights
• Joint-venture partner – Teck – undertook substantial surveys and drilling and discovered two layers of mineralised ore at Stonepark West
• Six of the 10 Newcastle West blocks will come back to the company

Post Period Highlights
• Farm-in agreement signed with Hendrick Resources for gold exploration in Wicklow/Wexford

John Teeling, Chairman, said, “Connemara has adequate funds for all proposed expenditure in the next year. Although mining exploration is a long term high risk business, Connemara is well placed in the most prospective country in the world in which to find zinc. The gold exploration project is exciting. We have strong hopes that we will move to drilling new areas in Wicklow/Wexford.”
