LONDON, ENGLAND and BAIE VERTE, NEWFOUNDLAND and LABRADOR -- (Marketwire - July 18, 2012) - Rambler Metals and Mining plc (TSX VENTURE:RAB) (AIM:RMM) ("Rambler" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the successful completion, on a non-brokered basis, of a subscription by Tinma International Limited ("Tinma"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of a China-based strategic investor and shareholder of Rambler, of 7,118,012 new ordinary shares of Rambler (the "Subscription Shares") at a subscription price of Can$0.58 per ordinary share (approximately GBP 0.36 per ordinary share as at the date the Subscription was announced) (the "Subscription") for gross proceeds to the Company of approximately Can$4.13 million (approximately GBP 2.56 million as at the date the Subscription was announced). Proceeds from the Subscription will be used for general working capital purposes and to repay a portion of the Company's outstanding debt. Completion of the subscription remains conditional only on admission of the Subscription Shares to trading on AIM and final acceptance of the listing of the Subscription Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), both of which are expected to occur tomorrow.

The completion of the Subscription follows the Company's announcement of the subscription agreement entered into between Rambler and Tinma on 18 May 2012 (the "Subscription Agreement") and the successful outcome of the extraordinary meeting of shareholders on 28 June 2012, which was required to allot the Subscription Shares. As disclosed in the 18 May 2012 announcement, the Subscription is a "related party transaction" for the purposes of the policies of the Exchange and AIM Rule 13 of the AIM Rules for Companies.

Following the issue of Subscription Shares, Tinma has an interest in 22,736,992 shares representing approximately 15.97 per cent of the issued share capital of Rambler.

In connection with certain rights granted in connection with a previous subscription agreement dated 6 March 2012, Tinma has the right to nominate an additional director to the Rambler board of directors for such time as Tinma controls (directly or indirectly) at least 15 per cent of the Company's issued share capital. An announcement will be made in due course regarding Tinma's second director representative.

The listing of the Subscription Shares has been conditionally accepted by the Exchange and it is expected that admission of the Subscription Shares to trading on AIM will take place tomorrow. Pursuant to the requirements of the Exchange, the Subscription Shares are subject to a hold period until November 20, 2012 in respect of trades in Canada or trades to or for the benefit of a Canadian resident.

For the purposes of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules, the Company's total issued share capital at the date of this notice consists of 142,360,240 ordinary shares of 1 penny each.

The above figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine their interest if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company, under the Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

Further details can be found in the announcement of 18 May 2012.

ABOUT RAMBLER METALS AND MINING

Rambler Metals and Mining plc is a copper and gold producer that has 100% ownership of the Ming Copper-Gold Mine in Baie Verte, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. Rambler's strategy is to become a mid-tier mining company by continuing the development of the Ming Mine, discovering new deposits and pursuing 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 of contained metal). 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 to the outlined reserve estimate, there is a sizeable footwall deposit beneath the massive sulphide horizon that has been outlined with an indicated resource grade of 18.3M tonnes grading 1.43% copper (261,258 tonnes of contained copper at a 1.00% copper cut-off grade). This zone forms the basis of the preliminary economic assessment, compiled by independent consultants, which envisions the Ming Mine transitioning itself into a bulk tonnage mining operation. For further information on the Ming Mine project, please refer to the Company's NI 43-101 compliant technical reports, available under the Company's profile on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).

Over the coming months and years, as the Company seeks to optimize the Ming Copper-Gold Mine into a cash positive position, it is expected that future expansion into the footwall zone will be formalized with the goal of maximizing returns for shareholders and increasing the life of the mine.

Larry Pilgrim, P.Geo., is the Qualified Person responsible for the technical content of this release and has reviewed and approved it accordingly. Mr. Pilgrim is an independent consultant contracted by Rambler Metals and Mining plc.

Drill hole referenced tonnes are dry metric tonnes while milling throughputs are quoted as wet tonnes unless otherwise indicated.
