               Falkland Gold and Minerals Limited (the 'Company')

                      Shareholder Update and Notice of AGM




17 January 2008



The Company announced on 16 November 2007 that if, by the year end, no
economically significant mineralisation had been identified in the Falkland
Islands then it intended to deploy its remaining cash balances, and a fully
equipped and experienced exploration team with two drill rigs and ancillary
equipment to prospective areas elsewhere in the world.

The Board of FGML can now confirm that the Company has not been able to identify
any mineral deposits of economic interest and that the Company's exploration
programme in the Falklands has been completed.

The Company's 2008 AGM will be held on the 4th of March and a resolution
addressing the Company's strategy will be put to shareholders at that time.
