    First export of product from the Moma Titanium Mine completed

Kenmare Resources is pleased to report the departure of the MV Tinos
from the Marine Terminal at Kenmare's Moma Titanium Mine, loaded with
23,000 tonnes of Ilmenite product.  The Tinos will proceed to Europe
for unloading.

This shipment represents the first dispatch of products to customers
from Moma's operations and therefore represents a significant forward
step for the project.  Another customer vessel arrived at Moma today,
for immediate loading.

Charles Carvill, Kenmare's Chairman, said:  "This is the big step
which we have all been waiting for.  Moma is now shipping to
customers.  It is a major milestone for Kenmare and whilst we had
great confidence in the system we are all delighted to have the first
load dispatched.".
