Rambler Loads and Ships First Concentrates to International Markets

LONDON, ENGLAND and BAIE VERTE, NEWFOUNDLAND and LABRADOR--(Marketwire - Dec. 3, 2012) - Rambler Metals and Mining plc
(TSX VENTURE:RAB) (AIM:RMM) ('Rambler' or the 'Company') announces that subsequent to the Company's 'notification of
load readiness' to Transamine Trading SA ('Transamine'), a total of 8,873 wet metric tonnes of copper concentrate has
now been loaded and shipped from storage at Goodyear's Cove on board a bulk cargo vessel, destined for Huelva, Spain.

HIGHLIGHTS

/T/

--  A bulk cargo vessel, the MV Qamutik, called to port on Friday 23
    November 2012. The vessel was completely loaded, trimmed and surveyed
    with 8,873 wet metric tonnes of copper concentrate by Sunday afternoon
--  The Company's own sampling estimate of grade for the concentrate shows
    it ranging between 26-30% copper with 6-10 g/t gold and 40-50 g/t
    silver. Moisture content at the time of loading was 8.66%, below the
    products transportable moisture limit ('TML') of 9.15%
--  The Company has also initiated payback of the C$7.5 M borrowed from
    Sprott Lending, with the first repayment of C$500,000 made on 30
    November 2012

George Ogilvie, President and CEO of Rambler, commented:

"The loading and shipment of our copper concentrate, destined for international markets, now completes the entire copper
production cycle for our Company. The facilities at Goodyear's Cove were newly constructed this year and following only
minor delays during start-up, the vessel was loaded efficiently.

As the Ming Mine is in commercial production and starting to generate free cash flow, we feel it is now prudent to begin
repaying the credit facility received in late 2011 from Sprott Lending. Subsequently, we have made our first repayment
of C$500,000 towards the loan principal.

Rambler will be presenting at the Proactive Investors One2One Forum - London on Thursday December 6th, 6:00pm at
Chesterfield Mayfair Hotel (Charles Suite, 1st floor), 35 Charles Street, Mayfair. We will be providing an update of
some of our successes over the past year and those opportunities we hope to take advantage of in the coming year. You
can officially register for the event through www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/register/event_details/169 . My executive
team and I will be available after the presentations to talk about the Mine and answer any questions you may have."
