             Anglo Pacific Group PLC Announces Exposure to Uranium

Anglo Pacific Group PLC, (Anglo Pacific), is pleased to announce that it holds
an 8.91% stake in Laramide Resources Ltd (Laramide) (symbol LAM on the TSX
Venture Exchange).

Laramide recently exercised its option to acquire a 100% interest in the
Westmoreland -Lagoon Creek uranium project in North West Queensland, Australia.

This has a resource of 17 million tons of 1.2kg/U308 uranium to the ton as well
as copper and gold possibilities. Westmoreland - Lagoon Creek is one of the
largest uranium deposits in Australia. Of the world's known recoverable
resources of uranium, 28% of the total are in Australia. Uranium prices have
improved substantially in the past 18 months, with spot prices rising from below
US $10/lb to current levels of around US $20/lb.

For further information on Laramide and its other mineral resource interests
please refer to www.laramide.com.

Involvement in this project provides Anglo Pacific with exposure to the
lucrative uranium sector and reflects Anglo Pacific's continuing focus on
energy.
