Rambler Metals and Mining Aligns Itself
                             With Maritime Resources Through 17% Equity Stake

London, England & Baie Verte, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada - Rambler Metals and Mining plc (TSXV: RAB,
AIM:  RMM)  ('Rambler'  or  the 'Company') is pleased to announce an acquisition  of  4,500,000  shares  of
Maritime  Resources  Corp  (TSXV: MAE) ('Maritime').  In consideration of  this  initial  equity  interest,
Maritime has invited Rambler to appoint a representative to join Maritime's Board of Directors.

The  non-brokered  private transaction priced at $0.23 per share will give Rambler a 17%  equity  stake  in
Maritime.  The shares are being purchased from Commander Resources Ltd. (TSXV: CMD) who currently  hold  an
equity interest in Maritime Resources.

Rambler  is pleased to nominate Peter Mercer, Vice President of Corporate Development to join the board  of
directors at Maritime.  Peter has a strong and diverse background in geology and mining with over ten years
experience  in  working on projects.  His leadership during the exploration, environmental  permitting  and
engineering  phase  of  Rambler's  Ming Mine was instrumental in bringing  the  Ming  Copper-Gold  Mine  to
production.

George Ogilvie, President and CEO commented:

        "Our  equity stake in Maritime strengthens the exploration and development alliance formed in  June
        2011.   While we continue to optimize our own mine and milling facilities, including the Ming Mine,
        we  will  also look to facilitate growth and value creation opportunities in Maritime's  Green  Bay
        properties.

        Maritime  has  made  excellent  progress  in advancing  the  Green  Bay  portfolio  of  properties,
        specifically the Hammerdown mine (gold), Orion (gold) and Lochinvar (zinc, lead, copper,  gold  and
        silver).   We  view the partnership between Rambler and Maritime as being able to continue  to  add
        value  to  these  properties  as  they move into the next phases  of  exploration,  permitting  and
        engineering.   The experience that Peter is able to provide in relation to these key  areas,  based
        on  his knowledge from the Ming Mine, will be invaluable to Maritime's projects as they are further
        explored and advanced."

ABOUT MARITIME RESOURCES CORP

Maritime  is a new junior exploration company with primary assets being the Hamerdown gold mine, the  Orion
gold  deposit,  and  the  Lochinvar VMS deposit, all belonging to the Green Bay  property  portfolio.   The
Hammerdown  gold  mine was first discovered in 1989 through a partnership between Major  General  Resources
(predecessor to Commander Resources Ltd.) and Noranda.  It was brought into production in 2001 by  Richmont
Mines  and over the next four years in operation Hammerdown produced nearly 315,000 tonnes of ore  with  an
average  grade  of  16.1  g/t gold.  All material was trucked and processed at  the  Nugget  Pond  hydromet
facility,  which  Rambler  now owns, producing approximately 157,000 ounces representing  a  gold  recovery
better  than  97%.   The average gold price while Hammerdown was in operation was only $275  US  per  ounce
forcing a cut off grade of 6.9 g/t gold.  While much of the original Hammerdown main zones were mined  out,
the owners at that time elected not to mine many of the neighbouring veins due to the low price of gold.

Orion  was  first discovered in 1995 and is now in the advanced exploration stage focused on expanding  the
NI43-101  resource estimate. The Orion property is located within 2 kilometres of Hammerdown  and  just  10
kilometres off the Trans-Canada Highway which is readily accessible via paved and dirt roads.  Maritime has
100%  ownership  of the project and has plans to continue its diamond drilling program with  the  hopes  of
improving  the  current resource estimate.  The property has over 15,000 metres of diamond drilling  and  a
NI43-101  compliant inferred resource of 119,374 ounces of gold from 710,285 tonnes at an average grade  of
5.23 g/t (using a 3 g/t cut-off grade).  The mineralization outcrops on surface and could be amenable to an
open pit mining method.

The  Lochinvar  VMS  deposit  is adjacent to the former Hammerdown mine, 3 km south  of  Kings  Point  near
Springdale, Newfoundland. It is situated within 400 metres of a paved highway and 4 kilometres  from  Green
Bay.  The  property  is  currently under mining lease ML191.  A non-43-101 compliant historical  geological
resource, starting at surface of 588,000 tonnes (undiluted) with an average grade of 3.9% zinc, 1.4%  lead,
0.4% copper, 60 g/t silver and 0.45 g/t gold was calculated in 1995 based on 18 drill holes.  This resource
estimate is non-NI43-101 compliant and cannot be relied upon in any way.

ABOUT RAMBLER METALS AND MINING

Rambler  is  a  Junior Mining Company that has 100% ownership of the Ming Copper-Gold Mine in  Baie  Verte,
Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.  As a producing gold and copper miner, our objective is to become a mid-
tier  mining  company  by  continuing the development of the Ming Mine,  discovering  new  deposits,  joint
ventures and through mergers and acquisitions.

The initial six years of the Ming Mine project is based on the underground mining of massive sulphides with
a  mineable reserve estimate of 1.498 million ore tonnes grading 1.62% copper, 2.40 g/t gold and 10.90  g/t
silver  (24,252  tonnes  of  copper, 115,549 ounces of gold and 525,139 ounces  of  silver).   All  massive
sulphide  zones  remain  open  both  up and down plunge with the current  exploration  program  focused  on
extending the known mineralization for inclusion in the resource/reserve estimate.  In addition, a sizeable
footwall  deposit  beneath the massive sulphide horizon has been outlined with a  resource  grade  of  9.85
million  tonnes  grading 1.70% copper (167,355 tonnes of contained copper metal).  As the Company  advances
the  Ming  Mine  project into a cash positive position, expansion into these underexplored  areas  will  be
formalized with the goal of maximizing returns for shareholders and increasing the life of mine.
